Under the leadership of the Party, the management of the State, given efforts of party committees, local authorities, ministries, branches, socio-political organizations, business community and employees, with effective support and cooperation of other countries and international organizations the system of policies and legislation on social insurance of Vietnam has been constantly supplemented, improved and become more compatible with the socialist-oriented market economy. administrative reform helps VSS manage and shorten the time of handling procedures regarding social, health and unemployment insurance for participants.
With the motto of people and enterprises centric for serving, the administrative reform has been continued to be done by VSS by strictly. Accordingly, The VSS inaugurates the national database on residents, businesses and insurance. Once the specialised database is connected with each other, and a legal framework for the data sharing and connectivity is completed, these obstacles would be removed. Once national database on residents, businesses and insurance are connected with each other, and a legal framework for the data sharing and connectivity is completed, these obstacles would be removed. Ngày 6/1/2022, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh has signed a decision approving a project on developing the application of population database, e-identification and e-authentication for national digital transformation in the 2022-2025 period with a vision to 2030.After more than a year and a half of implementing the project on developing the application of data on population, electronic identification and authentication for national digital transformation, in the period of 2022 - 2025, with a vision to 2030 (Project 06) with positive results, the project has brought practical benefits, serving people and businesses better and effectively. it can be said that digital transformation has created a turning point in many activities of Vietnam's social insurance industry. The assigned tasks achieved many outstanding results in ensuring information security and safety for the database and information systems of the industry.Vietnam Social Insurance is the first unit to successfully connect to the National Population Database since the National Population Database was officially put into operation. The Vietnam Social Insurance is continuing to coordinate with the Ministry of Public Security in sharing and reviewing demographic information in the national database on insurance. In parallel with the implementation of medical examination and treatment by health insurance with chip-based citizen IDs, Vietnam Health Insurance is continuing to use the image of health insurance cards on the VssID - Digital Social Insurance application, to provide medical examination and treatment with health insurance instead of paper health insurance. Up to now, there have been nearly 30 million VssID accounts, with more than 4 million times using health insurance card images on VssID for medical examination and treatment covered by health insurance.
Previously, when medical examination and treatment by health insurance with chip-based citizen IDs had not been implemented, patients when going for medical examination and treatment covered by health insurance would have to store and present their health insurance card or health insurance card image on the VssID application and identification papers with a photo, to carry out medical examination and treatment procedures; Medical staff must also receive and check the above documents of the patient to perform the profession.
When implementing medical examination and treatment with health insurance with a chip-mounted citizen ID, patients only need to present one type of identity document, a citizen ID with a chip to carry out medical examination and treatment procedures, simplifying paperwork, saving time for patients and medical staff when carrying out medical examination and treatment procedures with health insurance. The social insurance agency also reduces the cost of printing health insurance cards, increasing the accuracy and synchronization of information. Implement joint registration of birth-registration of permanent residence-issuance of health insurance cards for children under 6 years old; joint registration of death registration - deletion of permanent residence registration - support for funeral expenses, funeral allowance. It can be seen that the results achieved in the implementation of digital transformation and the implementation of Project 06 have brought about landmark changes in the activities of Vietnam's social insurance industry, contributing to the creation and construction of a digital Vietnamese social insurance industry, in line with the orientation of the digital government, meeting the requirements of ensuring national social security, helping to reduce the time and costs of social insurance transactions with organizations and individuals.
Ministries, sectors and localities also benefit from connecting, exploiting and sharing data with the national insurance database; improving the accuracy and capacity of data-driven management; facilitate the strengthening of inspection and examination in the electronic environment.
Thereby helping to improve the efficiency of state management and better ensure the interests of the people. This is also the premise and motivation for Vietnam's social insurance industry to continue successfully implementing the assigned tasks in the coming time.
