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
Rodin enjoys playing with colors and toys. He's the youngest child, and his mom is raising him alone. They took him to the hospital because he had a cough, trouble breathing, a runny nose, and he didn't feel like eating.
Medical history
Rodin, the youngest child in his family, loves playing with colors and toys. Raised by his single mother, he was taken to the hospital after he begun experiencing a cough, difficulty breathing, a runny nose, and a loss of appetite. He was diagnosed with pneumonia. His mother, who earns a living by selling ripe bananas on the streets, struggled to afford his treatment. He was prescribed oral medication. Helpster Charity footed all the hospital bills and Rodin made a full recovery.
Outcome
Pneumonia should be treated with antibiotics. If left untreated, pneumonia may lead to the permanent lung damage, respiratory failure, septicaemia (infection entering blood stream and causing sepsis), pleural effusion (accumulation of fluid in the space between the lung and chest wall, which can make breathing difficult), and other life-threatening complications.
