The winter of 1999 has a different kind of warmth.

On December 22 of this year, the national master key of the social security card was generated in Shanghai, and then the country's first social security card was issued, which opened a landmark page in the construction of my country's social security system.

　　With the continuous improvement of the level of economic and social development in my country, especially since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at the core has adhered to the basic policy of full coverage, basic protection, multi-level, and sustainable development to promote the development of my country’s social security and economic development. Synchronization of development, commensurate with the stage of economic development and financial level, has made my country's multi-level social security system increasingly sound.

The small social security card gradually "transformed" into an important carrier for the government's livelihood services.

　　After 21 years of vicissitudes of life, people’s livelihood and well-being have been more practical and diverse in this small card——

　　The bearing function is more powerful.

Whether it is for medical treatment to purchase medicines for settlement, or to receive pensions, unemployment benefits, and maternity allowances, or even to serve as bus cards, park cards, library cards, etc. in some provinces and cities, the functions of social security cards are becoming stronger and stronger, and they play a role in the lives of residents. The role of is becoming more and more important.

　　Cover a wider range of people.

In 2012, the number of social security card holders in China was 341 million; as of the end of 2020, the number of social security card holders in my country has reached 1.335 billion, which means that 95% of the population in my country have social security cards.

On August 27, 2018, the staff collected social security card information at the Nedong Neighborhood Committee in Shannan City, Tibet.

　　Reform measures are more beneficial to the people.

From real-time settlement of medical insurance in different places, to the integration of maternity insurance into basic medical insurance for employees, to the continuous improvement of residents' social insurance benefits... Reforms around one card have blossomed, and the social security network has become denser and stronger.

　　Changed in response to events, progressed in accordance with the times, and new in accordance with the situation, entering the digital age, social security cards ushered in a new "transformation".

　　In April 2018, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security issued the first electronic social security card.

In just over two years, the total number of applications for electronic social security cards in my country has exceeded 300 million.

From providing online social security relationship transfer, overseas social security exemption, unemployment registration, unemployment insurance benefit application and other 40 national social security services, to having mobile payment functions, and supporting scan code for medical treatment, drug purchase, and transportation in some cities, The services provided by electronic social security cards are more "smart" and more responsive to the needs of the masses.

　　From card to code, from basic social security services to diversified convenience services, what the social security card changes is the form and function, and what runs through it and remains unchanged is the concern for people’s livelihood, the sense of gain and happiness of the people, and Bearer.

　　Deng Yougen is a lonely old man in Tingxi Village, Geping Township, Xiajiang County, Ji'an City, Jiangxi Province.

In 2020, in the big data comparison, the staff of the Xiajiang County Social Security Bureau found that he reached the age of 66, but he did not participate in the insurance, so he took the initiative to come to the door, apply for the old people’s pension insurance for urban and rural residents for free, and reissue it. pension.

　　In September 2019, Mr. Chen and his wife, who live in Wujiang District, Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province, welcomed their newborn baby at Jiaxing Maternal and Child Health Hospital in Zhejiang Province.

Subsequently, Mr. Chen obtained the child's birth medical certificate at the "One Thing about Birth" processing center of the hospital, and also applied for the child's medical insurance participation, social security citizen card, etc. The entire process took about 20 minutes.

　　Breaking geographical restrictions and making it convenient and efficient to apply for a card benefited from the new cross-provincial co-operation model of "one thing born" jointly created by Nanhu District and Wujiang District.

This is a lively practice carried out by the Human Resources and Social Security and other departments in the two places to deepen the "at most once" reform in the public service sector and actively promote the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta.

　　One branch and one leaf are always affection.

At the symposium on solidly advancing the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta held in August 2020, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that the three provinces and one city “should explore the use of social security cards as the carrier to establish a “all-in-one card” for residents’ services. Experience and other aspects are the first to achieve'same city treatment'".

In the future, people in the Yangtze River Delta will enjoy more benefits and conveniences of integrated development through social security cards.

　　"There is no end to safeguarding and improving people's livelihood, only a continuous new starting point."

During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, my country's multi-level social security system will be more complete, and the functions and services provided by the social security card will also reach a new level.

Establish an all-in-one card service management model based on social security cards, form comprehensive online and offline service capabilities, and basically achieve full coverage of the country’s urban and rural population with social security cards by 2025... The goal of "social security for everyone" is passed. This card is steadily realized.
