Fund payment is not deducted from the medical insurance card, but from the medical insurance co-ordination account. Medical insurance fund payment is actually medical insurance reimbursement. For the insured who have paid medical insurance, the eligible medical expenses will be paid by the social medical insurance pooling fund on the premise of meeting the scope of medical insurance reimbursement.

Medical insurance reimbursement process:

1. Under normal circumstances, when you need to be hospitalized due to illness, you can go to your designated hospital with your medical insurance card and medical records, and settle with your medical insurance card. That is, some of them are paid by themselves, and some medical insurance centers and hospitals reimburse and settle accounts;

2 from designated hospitals to secondary or tertiary hospitals, medical insurance cards can be used for settlement;

3. The patient is critically ill and hospitalized in a non-designated hospital. He should go to the municipal medical insurance center for emergency rescue disease identification within 5 days. After being identified as an emergency rescue disease, he can use the medical insurance card for settlement in the rescue hospital;

4, transferred to other places for treatment, with the consent of the hospital and medical insurance center, the referral procedures. The expenses incurred in the field shall be settled by the individual at his own expense, and after the diagnosis and treatment, the community labor security workstation shall prepare the materials for reimbursement;

5, medical insurance reimbursement is calculated in proportion, generally ranging from 70%. The proportion and amount of reimbursement are related to factors such as self-examination, medication and medical grade;

6. At the time of reimbursement, the insured person needs to prepare relevant materials for hospitalization, such as outpatient medical records, discharge records, discharge diagnosis (disease diagnosis), hospitalization invoices (which can be reported to the outpatient department), general list of hospitalization expenses, and medical insurance statements. If the hospital has done CT, B-ultrasound, electrocardiogram and other inspections, it is also necessary to prepare relevant inspection reports;

7, discharge settlement, submit relevant information, in the medical insurance reimbursement window can be reimbursed. After approval, the reimbursement amount will generally arrive within 15 working days.
