Where does social security go?

Medical insurance is territorial management. In principle, no matter where you are insured, you can enjoy medical insurance benefits. If you leave the insured place for medical treatment, you need to go to the social security bureau of the insured place for medical treatment in different places, or go to the designated medical institution of the insured place for transfer certificate before you can be hospitalized in different places. The medical expenses incurred can enjoy medical insurance benefits.
