Implementing a temporary deferred payment policy on corporate contributions toemployees’ medical insurance for micro-, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs). For municipalities at or above the prefecture level where the accumulated balance of the Employees’ Medical Insurance Unified Fund can afford benefits distribution for more than six months, MSMEs and self-employed households who are insured as employers may enjoy the deferred payment of corporate contributions to employees’ medical insurance for three months, and exempted from overdue fines thereof. Deferral for social groups, foundations, social service agencies, law firms and accounting firms should be implemented with reference to this policy.　　II. Guaranteeing that insured persons are entitled to all their benefits during the deferral period. The deferred corporate contributions of an MSME shall not affect the normal reimbursement of medical expenses for the insured persons of the enterprise. During the deferral period, medical expenses incurred by the insured persons that comply with the provisions of the basic medical insurance policy should be reimbursed in a timely manner and to the fullest extent possible, so as to ensure that the level of reimbursement remains stable and does not decrease.　　III. Fully implementing the “Entitlement without Application” handling mode. Eligible MSMEs are entitled to the deferred payment of corporate contributions without making an application. All local governments should promote the policy in conjunction with the actual situation, clarify the process and take the initiative to publicise it to the society. The MSMEs should be classified in accordance with the provisions of the Notice on Issuing the Standards for the Classification of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (GXBLQY [2011] No. 300). The list will be jointly determined by the healthcare security departments, tax services, and other relevant departments, under the leadership of the local governments. If the type of businesses can be determined by the data available, the categorisation by relevant departments should be directly adopted; if the available data cannot meet the needs, a written commitment can be issued by the enterprise to the approved payment department. Interdepartmental collaboration should be strengthened, processes optimised, and services innovated to reduce the transactional burden on enterprises. A good record should be kept to ensure that insured persons' rights and interests are not infringed.　　IV. Effectively protecting the legitimate rights and interests of the employees of relevant enterprises. During the deferral period, MSMEs should fulfil their obligations to withhold and pay the employees’ contributions in accordance with the law, and declare the information on the employees’ medical insurance premiums as usual, to ensure that the employees are continuously insured, and their personal rights and interests are recorded in a nonstop manner. If an employee quits or applies for pension benefits or the transfer of relation, the enterprise shall make up the deferred corporate contributions to medical insurance for said employee. If the enterprise is to be dissolved, the deferred payment should be paid up before dissolution.　　V. Carrying out scheduling, statistical analysis and other work to ensure the smooth implementation of the deferred payment policy. Local governments should strengthen the scheduling of information on deferred payments, conduct statistical monitoring, and summarise and report information to higher authorities on a monthly basis. The management of the fund should be effectively strengthened, the analysis of the fund’s operation enhanced, and operational risks controlled to ensure the safety of the fund. An information communication and sharing mechanism should be established. Healthcare security, taxation and other departments should share basic information such as enterprise and employee insurance contributions, enterprise deferred payment, etc. to strengthen the synergy of interdepartmental work.　　Local government should be vigilant about their political stance, unify their ideological understanding and carefully organize the implementation to ensure the temporary deferred payment policy is in place. Healthcare security, development and reform, finance, taxation and other departments at all levels should effectively perform their duties, strengthen communication and collaboration, improve working mechanisms, and ensure that the policy is implemented and effective. Special situations and problems encountered in implementation shall be reported in a timely manner.National Healthcare Security AdministrationNational Development and Reform CommissionMinistry of Finance State Taxation AdministrationJune 30, 2022
