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.

About enteric fever
Enteric fever is a systemic infection caused by Salmonella typhi or paratyphi, usually spread through contaminated food or water, and commonly presents with persistent high fever, abdominal pain, headache, loss of appetite, and either diarrhea or constipation. Diagnosis is confirmed by blood or stool culture, and treatment requires prompt use of appropriate antibiotics, fluids, and supportive care to prevent complications such as intestinal perforation or bleeding. Musa had some blood tests and results revealed enteric fever where some antibiotics and other supportive care was given.
