To complete the 2025 target, the provincial Social Insurance needs to develop more than 470 thousand people to participate in social insurance, health insurance, and unemployment insurance; collect more than 9 trillion VND and reduce the rate of late payment to below 1.7%. This is a very difficult task, in addition to the great efforts of the entire Dong Nai Social Insurance sector, it also requires the drastic participation of the Steering Committee and the entire political system in the province.

The provincial Social Insurance recommends that the Provincial Party Committee, People's Council, and People's Committee continue to include the targets for social insurance, health insurance, and unemployment insurance in the socio-economic development resolution; and not reward units that owe social insurance. Relevant departments and branches continue to closely coordinate in business management, support funding for participation in health insurance and voluntary social insurance for the period 2026-2030.

For socio-political organizations, it is necessary to step up propaganda, supervision, criticism, and mobilize people to participate. For the police, prosecution, and court sectors, it is necessary to continue to coordinate in handling acts of evasion, fraud, and misuse of social insurance and health insurance funds.

Focus on implementing solutions to achieve the goal of developing subjects participating in insurance types, in which special attention should be paid to the target of participating in social insurance (more than 68 thousand people).

For the voluntary social insurance development target, there must be specific solutions, clearly identifying the subjects, communes and wards that need development. For health insurance, there must be specific solutions, advising the Provincial People's Committee to direct and assign to communes and wards.

“To achieve the set targets, there must be a strong participation of the entire political system. It is necessary to have a plan and assign specific targets to each commune and ward. Promote the role of organizations such as the Women's Union, Youth Union, Farmers' Association... Mobilize the participation of religious organizations to encourage people to participate in insurance. In addition, it is necessary to promote propaganda on Newspapers, Radio, and Television of Binh Phuoc, on the internet, and innovate propaganda forms to reach closer to the people" - Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Le Truong Son emphasized.
