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.

Medical history
The child was referred from the Helpster outreach program at Makoko, with itchy skin rashes, abdominal pains, fever, cough, and catarrh. She was diagnosed with Contact Dermatitis/ Skin Infection/Sepsis, and malaria. The child was treated as an outpatient and given appropriate medications which will treat all the symptoms.
