Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, my country's social security system has undergone the greatest reform and the fastest development.

1. Coverage continues to expand

  In September, when the weather is slightly cool, Bulaotun on the north bank of Miyun Reservoir in Beijing welcomes the most beautiful season of the year.

In this village with many long-lived elderly people, Lao Song, a "junior" who has just turned 60, has begun to receive pensions.

  Lao Song is a down-to-earth farmer.

In 2009, Beijing launched the basic old-age insurance for urban and rural residents on the basis of the new rural insurance and urban residential insurance.

Also from this year, Lao Song began to participate in pension insurance.

By March this year, Lao Song had made up for the 15-year receiving standard at one time.

  "Being able to have the same old-age security as people in the city, I never thought about it before." When he thought of the pension that was paid on time every month, he laughed hard, "The staff in the town gave me a very good account. Clearly, I pay the highest standard of 9,000 yuan every year, and I also enjoy government subsidies. Now I have more than 130,000 yuan in my personal pension account. From now on, I can receive a personal pension of more than 980 yuan per month, plus 887 yuan of basic pension. The pension is more than 1,800 yuan."

  The story of Lao Song is only a microcosm of the reform of the national pension insurance.

In the past ten years, people have witnessed the trajectory of pension insurance breaking its cocoon and turning into a butterfly.

  Li Zhong, Deputy Minister of Human Resources and Social Security, introduced that in the past ten years, my country has carried out the top-level design of endowment insurance and issued an overall plan for the reform of the endowment insurance system; unified the endowment insurance system for urban and rural residents, and formed two basic endowments for urban workers and urban and rural residents. Insurance system platform; implemented the reform of the pension insurance system of government agencies and institutions, and realized the integration with the enterprise pension insurance system; issued the basic pension insurance fund investment management method, carried out market-oriented investment operations; established the enterprise pension insurance fund central adjustment system, The provincial level pooling of endowment insurance has been fully realized, and the national pooling of endowment insurance is being implemented as soon as possible; the occupational annuity system has been established, and the individual pension system has been introduced, filling the system gap of multi-level and multi-pillar endowment insurance.

  Over the past ten years, around the bottom line, weaving a dense network, and building a mechanism to promote full coverage of social security, basic protection, multi-level, and sustainable development, important breakthroughs have been made in the reform of the social security system, and the coverage has been continuously expanded. The number of social insurance participants has increased from 790 million, 150 million, and 190 million in 2012 to 1.04 billion, 230 million, and 290 million in June 2022.

Basic medical insurance covers 1.36 billion people, and the participation rate remains above 95%.

  "In the past ten years, the construction of my country's social security system has entered the fast lane. After unremitting efforts, a social security system with distinctive Chinese characteristics, the largest scale and complete functions in the world has been built." Li Zhong said.

2. The level of social security benefits continues to improve

  In the Yufu Community of Wenjiang, Chengdu, Sichuan, there is an old man named Li Xiufang. She has been dealing with fields and crops all her life, and her work and time have left traces of the years on her dark face.

Years ago, the rapid growth of the city brought the neighboring countryside into it.

Li Xiufang also moved into a new house, but, accustomed to working every day and living off the harvest from the fields, the sudden loss of land made her feel at a loss.

  Fortunately, the implementation of a policy has brought a new start to Li Xiufang's life - Chengdu has included all eligible land-expropriated farmers, including the elderly Li Xiufang, into the coverage of endowment insurance, which not only solved their worries, but also allowed them to The level of security has increased year by year.

  "In the earliest days, my pension was seven or eight hundred yuan a month, and I no longer had to worry about my daily life. I started dancing and climbing mountains with my sisters, and my life was much more comfortable. Not to mention the pension every year for so many years. They are all on the rise, and the pension that has just arrived this month is nearly 2,000 yuan a month! Not only is it enough to spend on my own, but I also have the extra money to buy something delicious and fun for my grandchildren, save some money, and travel.” Li Xiufang said.

  Over the past ten years, under the principle that the level of social security is compatible with economic development, my country has steadily improved various social security benefits, effectively improving the living standards of the people.

Li Zhong introduced that, considering factors such as price changes, employee wage growth, fund affordability, and financial conditions, since 2012, my country has continuously adjusted the basic pensions for retirees from enterprises, government agencies and institutions, and established and improved the determination and reasonableness of basic pension benefits. adjustment mechanism.

Since 2014, the national basic pension standard for basic pension insurance for urban and rural residents has been raised four times.

  Since 2012, the monthly per capita pension of enterprise retirees has increased from 1,686 yuan to 2,987 yuan, the monthly per capita pension of urban and rural residents has increased from 82 yuan to 179 yuan, the monthly average unemployment insurance premium has increased from 707 yuan to 1,585 yuan, and the monthly average work injury insurance The disability allowance was raised from 1,864 yuan to about 4,000 yuan.

At the same time, the guarantee capability has been continuously enhanced. The cumulative balance of the three social insurance funds is 6.9 trillion yuan, the annual revenue and expenditure of the funds exceeds 13 trillion yuan, and the market-oriented investment and operation funds exceed 8 trillion yuan.

  Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, especially since the establishment of the National Medical Security Administration in 2018, residents' medical insurance benefits have become higher and higher, and the scope of reimbursement has become wider and wider.

At present, the participation rate of my country's basic medical insurance is stable at over 95%, and the proportion of hospitalization expenses within the scope of employee medical insurance and resident medical insurance policies is about 80% and 70% respectively. Over 4 billion person-times have played an important role in solving the problem of expensive medical treatment for the masses, supporting the development of medical and health services, maintaining social stability and promoting common prosperity.

3. Significant improvement in management service level

  The Pearl River flows into the sea, and a bridge connects the three places.

One end of the bridge is the home where Mr. Lai, a Macao resident, grew up, and the other end of the bridge, Zhuhai, Guangdong, is the home where he holds a residence permit.

In 2020, the 59-year-old Mr. Li learned from the media in Zhuhai and Macau that unemployed Macau residents who hold a residence permit in Zhuhai can participate in the basic endowment insurance for urban and rural residents in Zhuhai, so he went through the relevant insurance procedures in Zhuhai.

  In January 2021, Mr. Li saw on the news that the branch of the Macau Federation of Trade Unions could handle the social security related business in Zhuhai, so he went to the institution to understand and handle the single payment and pension of Zhuhai urban and rural residents' endowment insurance. Apply for business.

Within two working days, the Zhuhai Social Insurance Fund Management Center received Mr. Lai's application materials handed over by the Macau Federation of Trade Unions, and "packaged" the single payment and pension application business for his urban and rural residents' endowment insurance.

"You can receive Zhuhai's social security benefits in Macau, and you can complete all the business at your doorstep. Thank you for such a good policy, and praise for the considerate social security service!" He couldn't help but sigh.

  Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, under the framework of national policies, my country has successively introduced policies such as permanent residence permits for foreigners, residence permits for Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan residents to participate in insurance, allowing more foreigners to have the warmth of home.

Mr. Li's story is only the "tip of the iceberg" of the significant improvement in the level of social security management services in my country.

  Over the past ten years, focusing on recording a lifetime, guaranteeing a lifetime, and serving a lifetime, more than 5,400 social security agencies at or above the county level have been established across the country. The level of standardization and informatization has been significantly improved, and it is more convenient and efficient to handle social security affairs nearby, online and quickly.

The national medical insurance settlement network for medical treatment in different places has basically been established, and the reimbursement for medical treatment in different places has been implemented across provinces.

  As of the end of June 2022, the number of social security card holders exceeded 1.36 billion, of which more than 575 million were electronic social security cards.

The cumulative number of visits to the national social insurance public service platform has exceeded 3.6 billion, which facilitates cross-provincial and one-stop services for the masses.

The national social insurance public service platform has opened 52 national and cross-regional social insurance public services, and the cumulative number of visits has exceeded 3 billion.

  It seems to be the most extraordinary, but it is as easy as it is difficult.

Over the past ten years, from Tiannan to Haibei, from cities to rural areas, through the implementation of the universal insurance plan and the precise promotion of key groups to participate in insurance, my country has established the world's largest social security system.

The coverage of social security has continued to expand, benefits have been steadily improved, security capabilities have been continuously enhanced, and service levels have been significantly improved.
