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
Levi is an bright child, and wants to be a pilot when he grows up. With the illness, his hopes of becoming a pilot are growing slim because he does not go to school at times because of the pain. Levi was diagnosed with appendicitis and cholecystitis which required urgent medical attention. Admission date - 6th August.
Medical history
The child underwent a surgery which was successful. Levi is now able to go about his life with no more abdominal pain.
Outcome
Cholecystitis should be treated with antibiotics, and acute appendicitis should be operated as soon as possible. Without the treatment, inflammation may cause complications with a fatal outcome.
