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 pulmonology
Ann is diagnosed with atopic dermatitis and sepsis. Atopic dermatitis is a chronic disease that causes inflammation, redness, and irritation of the skin. It is a common condition that usually begins in childhood; however, anyone can get the disease at any age. Sepsis, or blood poisoning, is a life-threatening condition that arises when the body’s response to infection causes injury to its own tissues and organs. Symptoms of septicaemia may include high fever, increased heart rate, rapid breathing, confusion, and extreme weakness. It is a medical emergency that requires immediate attention.
