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
Richard is in the fourth grade and is a big football fan. He dreams of becoming a doctor one day so he can help people with speech and hearing challenges, just like him. Lately, he hasn't been feeling well, with tummy aches, a cough, sore joints, and not wanting to eat. So, his family brought him to the hospital for a checkup.
Medical history
Richard, a fourth grader and an avid football fan, dreams of becoming a doctor to help others with speech and hearing challenges, inspired by his own experiences. Recently, he fell ill with symptoms including stomach aches, a cough, joint pain, and loss of appetite, prompting his family to take him to the hospital. Upon examination, Richard appeared unwell, had a fever, and was dehydrated. Laboratory tests confirmed he was suffering from severe malaria, which required hospitalization. After receiving treatment, Richard's condition improved, and he was discharged in better health.
Outcome
Malaria should be treated promptly with the use of antimalarial drugs. If left untreated, it can lead to severe complications and even death. It can result in organ failure, severe anemia, neurological issues, and in some cases, prove fatal, making early diagnosis and treatment crucial for preventing these life-threatening consequences.
