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
Abdulsalam is a happy four-year-old boy from a poor family. He loves to play with his friends and dreams of becoming an engineer when he grows up. A few months ago, he started having problems with urination. He was producing very little urine (oliguria) while experiencing severe pain (dysuria). Abdulsalam felt better when he took pain medication. However, this morning he was unable to pass urine at all. When the doctors examined him, they found a stone lodged in his bladder after a special X-ray. The doctors diagnosed a bladder stone and he is now awaiting treatment.
