What should I do if I go to the hospital without my social security card?

If you go to the hospital without a social security card, you can take the following ways:

1, use the electronic social security card.

2. Cash payment. If you don't bring any medical insurance related documents, you can choose to pay medical expenses in cash.

3. reissue or report the loss of the social security card. If the social security card is accidentally lost, you can report the loss on the spot through the social security bureau, website or service hotline, and apply for a new card.

4. Prepare relevant documents and materials. Before going to the hospital, please be sure to prepare your ID card or other valid documents, as well as proof materials for paying social security, such as social security payment vouchers.

5. Emergency. Emergency is a special case and can be reimbursed without a card. In case of emergency, the medical expenses can be paid in full by the individual first, and then the manual reimbursement procedures can be handled according to the original process.

The use of electronic social security cards in hospitals mainly includes the following ways:

1. Before seeing a doctor, you need to add an electronic social security card to the "card package" and set the password. After adding the electronic social security card, you can directly use the "swipe card use" function in Alipay to use the electronic social security card.

2. Pay attention to the hospital's life number after seeing a doctor and push the information that needs to be paid. Click to enter, select "medical insurance payment", and make one-click settlement through the electronic social security card.

3. In some hospitals, you can directly scan the QR code in the lower right corner of the electronic social security card for medical insurance settlement.

To sum up: not all regions and hospitals support the use of electronic social security cards for medical insurance settlement, so it is recommended that you consult the hospital's instructors in advance before seeing a doctor.
