There are three main ways to activate social security cards in Dongguan: 1. Enter the password of the original medical insurance card with the new card in the designated pharmacy to activate the new card directly; 2. Use social security cards in designated hospitals to directly enable social security functions; 3. Start the social security function directly in the social security card management center.
