Why is treatment sometimes done earlier than the payment?

When a case is urgent and vital, hospitals often proceed with delivering medical care right away to save a life, even before the finalisation 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.

For the past three days, he had been experiencing a cough, a runny nose, loose stools, and pale eyes. Due to financial constraints, his family was unable to purchase medication from nearby chemists, causing his condition to worsen.
