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 emergency care
Malaria is a serious, mosquito-borne disease caused by parasites(Plasmodium) transmitted through infected female Anopheles mosquitoes, leading to symptoms like fever, chills, headache, and fatigue, and can be fatal if untreated. Severe malaria occurs due to delayed treatment of uncomplicated malaria. When severe malaria and bronchopneumonia occur together, it is a medical emergency that requires immediate hospitalization. The combination significantly increases the risk of respiratory failure. In a clinical setting, treatment focuses on clearing the parasites, fighting the bacterial lung infection, and supporting the patient’s breathing.
