Why is treatment done earlier than admission?

Sometimes, when a case is urgent and vital, hospitals may proceed with delivering medical care right away to save a life, even before the finalization of admission procedures. Usually, when this happens, hospitals put the bill on our credit until the funds are transferred to their accounts.
That's why the chronology can sometimes be in disorder.

Background

7 month old baby living with his parents. Was brought to the hospital with complains of difficulty in breathing, running nose and cough. The mother also reports that the child has been having extremely cold extremities. The symptoms have lasted for four days. The symptoms worsened on the fourth day despite some medication that had been given to the child. His parents are casual laborers and were not able to afford to take him to a hospital due to the low source of income that they had. Charles's mother had gone to a friend to request for help and on the way met her pastor who informed her about Helpster Charity and she immediately brought the child to the hospital.

Medical history

The child was brought to the hospital with complaints of difficulty in breathing, a runny nose, and a persistent cough. The mother also mentioned that the child had extremely cold hands and feet. These symptoms had lasted for four days and worsened on the fourth day, despite having received some medication earlier.
