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
Xaviour loves running around the house and wants to be a teacher when he grows up. A few days ago, he started feeling feverish, having headaches, vomiting, and joint pains. His mom also noticed he was more restless than usual. Because they didn't have enough money, they didn't take him to the hospital at first. Instead, they gave him painkillers, but they didn't work well. When his condition got worse, they took him to the hospital.
Medical history
Xaviour had started feeling feverish, having headaches, vomiting, and joint pains. His mom also noticed he was more restless than usual. Because they didn't have enough money, they didn't take him to the hospital at first. Instead, they gave him painkillers, but they didn't work well. When his condition got worse, they took him to the hospital. He was quite ill by the time he was arriving at the hospital. The doctors acted quick and diagnosed him with septicemia and malaria. He was admitted for further check up and he was treated with anti-malarial and antibiotics
Outcome
The widespread inflammation and organ damage caused by septicemia can result in dysfunction or failure of multiple organs, such as the lungs, kidneys, liver, and heart, if not treated. Broad-spectrum antibiotics are administered intravenously as soon as possible to fight the infection causing the septicemia.
