Detailed data of electronic insurance cards for participants of social insurance and health insurance will be stored at centralized data centers of the social insurance industry. These data will be retrieved when participants perform transactions such as medical examination and treatment with health insurance and settlement of social insurance regimes.

Electronic health insurance card has many advantages compared to paper cards currently in use. Because the data, signs such as fingerprints, face images, personal identification signs are fully integrated in the card, the card does not need to be republished.
