Medical insurance and social security are together, which means that medical insurance belongs to a kind of social security. Social insurance includes endowment insurance, medical insurance, maternity insurance, unemployment insurance and industrial injury insurance. If it is an on-the-job employee, the company will pay five insurances for the employee, which must be paid to the employee.

Social security and medical insurance are not the same thing. Social security card, namely social security card, is an IC card issued by human resources and social security departments in various places to handle various affairs of human resources and social security.
