Can health insurance e-vouchers be reimbursed

Medicare electronic vouchers can be reimbursed.

When a participant goes to a designated medical institution to settle medical bills with his/her e-voucher, he/she can realize real-time settlement as long as the e-voucher is activated normally. In case of system failure, participants can advance the full amount of medical expenses that cannot be settled in real time, and then apply for manual reimbursement. The manual reimbursement does not require the provision of social security cards, and during the reimbursement period, participants can still use the electronic vouchers to visit hospitals for real-time settlement of medical expenses.

The usefulness of the electronic health insurance card includes:

1. The electronic social security card is a valid electronic voucher for online application of social security, that is, the electronic version of the social security card, and the functions that the physical social security card has the electronic social security card have the same functions;

2. The electronic social security card can be used as a personal information protection record, and can be queried to find out the participants' valid identity information, such as the participant's individual The electronic social security card can also be used as a voucher for doing business, and can be used for real-time settlement when visiting hospitals, and can also be used for pension insurance business and unemployment compensation;

4. The electronic social security card can be used to buy medicines, and if the hospital is able to use the medical insurance card, it can also be used to buy medicines. If the hospital is able to use the medical insurance, the hospital can directly offset the cost of medicines used in the treatment through the medical subsidies in the social security card.

To summarize, if you are worried about not being able to use the e-voucher for reimbursement, it is recommended that you take your card with you.
