How long does it take for social security to use medical insurance?

Legal analysis: As long as the medical insurance is paid, the medical insurance will take effect from the month after the insured pays successfully. Insured persons who are insured as employees and special people who are insured as residents (except newborns) will enjoy basic medical insurance benefits (except personal account benefits) from the next month after receiving the payment. If the insured person or his unit stops paying medical insurance premiums, the insured person will stop enjoying the benefits from the next month after the payment is stopped.

Legal basis: People's Republic of China (PRC) Social Insurance Law.

Article 2 The state establishes social insurance systems such as basic old-age insurance, basic medical insurance, industrial injury insurance, unemployment insurance and maternity insurance, so as to guarantee citizens' right to receive material assistance from the state and society in accordance with the law in case of old age, illness, industrial injury, unemployment and maternity.

Twenty-third employees should participate in the basic medical insurance for employees, and employers and employees should pay the basic medical insurance premiums in accordance with state regulations. Individual industrial and commercial households without employees, part-time employees who have not participated in the basic medical insurance for employees and other flexible employees can participate in the basic medical insurance for employees, and individuals pay the basic medical insurance premium in accordance with state regulations.
