Since the issuance of the first social security card, the social security card has become an indispensable card for mainland residents, and now the number of social security card holders in the mainland has exceeded 1.3 billion, and according to forecasts, the social security card holding rate in the mainland will reach 100% in 2025. And now that the third-generation social security card has come, the three aspects have been greatly strengthened, so do you need to change the card?
The third generation of social security cards is coming, who needs to change the card?
The most important function of the social security card, I believe many people will think that it is to buy medicine to see a doctor, in fact, this is the most important function of the social security card. And many people say that the role of the social security card is to buy medicine to see a doctor, but this is not the case. Careful observation can find that each social security card will have the words of the issuing bank on it, so the social security card has the function of a bank card in addition to buying medicine to see a doctor.
After activating the social security card, you can go to the bank to activate its financial functions, so that the social security card can be used not only as a medical insurance card for buying drugs, but also as a bank card. And many people said that after the arrival of the third generation of social security cards, do they need to change the card? Their social security card shows that it is valid for ten years, will it affect the use if you do not change the card?
In fact, the validity period of the social security card shows not the validity period of the social security card, but the validity period of the financial function of the social security card. Even if the social security card exceeds the displayed validity period, it still does not prevent the function of the social security card itself from being limited, and the third-generation social security card is still popular, so even if the social security card expires, there is no need to change the card in a hurry.
So who needs to change their cards? The main group of people are such people who receive pensions through social security cards, and if their social security card expiration date is about to expire, they need to replace the new social security card as soon as possible, otherwise it will affect the issuance of pensions. The second is the card has been damaged by the crowd, such people's cards have been affected and used also need to be replaced as soon as possible.
In the same way, if the social security card shows expiration, but no financial services are opened, then there is no need to worry. The social security card of such people will not have any impact on daily use. Residents who have not activated financial services will not have any wrong prompts in the case of social security contributions, so they will not be in a hurry to change their cards.
The third-generation social security card has been greatly strengthened in three aspects
The replacement of the social security card is naturally strengthened in some aspects, and it is also developing in the direction of convenience, so what aspects of the new third-generation social security card have been improved? It is mainly reflected in three places, which greatly improve the convenience of residents
The first point is the contactless function. The emergence of the new crown epidemic is that people cannot gather, and according to the survey, the new crown virus can also be attached to the object, which is the contactless function that needs to appear in advance. This can not only effectively avoid the spread of the epidemic, but also improve the security of residents' social security cards.
The early social security card is a magnetic stripe card, which is mainly reflected in the action of swiping the card, which has a poor performance in terms of security and is eliminated after a few years of use. It was replaced by a second-generation chip-encrypted card, which differs from the first-generation card by swiping the card into a plug-in card, essentially a branch of the bank card.
Today's third-generation social security card has been upgraded on the basis of the second generation, the most important thing is to add contactless functions. The use of social security cards from the very beginning of the swipe card to the insertion of the card and then to today's scan card, which not only makes the use of the social security card more convenient, but also makes the social security card itself more reliable.
The second new addition is the addition of a lot of encrypted information at the security technical level. As the most widely used card in our daily life, the social security card contains a lot of our personal information, and once this part of the information is leaked, it will have a great impact on our lives. Especially now that telecommunications fraud cases are emerging in an endless stream, the protection of personal information is even more severe.
The third generation of social security cards has also achieved an important breakthrough in information encryption technology, from the initial encryption methods to today's biometrics and certificate authentication. Coupled with the blessing of ic card chips, it makes today's third-generation social security card more secure, and its own security has also been widely certified.
The third new feature is the addition of a bus card function. Nowadays, the bus card has become a card that many people do not want to carry, and if you can carry less things, you can bring less things, even if it is a card. After the social security card joins the bus card function, it can not only improve the use rate of the social security card, but also reduce the loss rate of the social security card.
Many people put it away after applying for a social security card, but when they use it, they can't find it. After the social security card joins the bus card function, the use rate of the social security card can be greatly improved, so that the social security card will not be thrown away casually, which naturally reduces the loss rate of the social security card.
