{{trope}}
Sometimes characters end up in the hospital. The sane thing to do when you're a patient in listen to your doctor's orders, no matter how [[badass]] you might be... but, for whatever reason, some characters just check themselves out early. They might have a mission to complete, they might feel just fine, they might simply hate hospitals. Going through the formal release process is optional. Going through the surgery that the character was checked into the hospital for is also optional.
No matter what the effects might be on the character's health, they just don't want to stay.
{{examples}}
== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* ''[[A Certain Magical Index]]'': No matter how many times Touma ends up in the hospital, he always checks himself out early. He knows he should stay, but he can't afford the hospital bill an extended stay would produce. Good thing he's under the care of the best doctor in the city when he ''is'' in the hospital.
* [[Played With]] in ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A's]]'', in that {{spoiler|Hayate isn't given a choice whether to leave the hospital before her treatment is completed. She goes back afterward.}}
== [[Fan Works]] ==

== [[Literature]] ==

== [[Live-Action TV]] ==
* In the South Korean TV series ''[[Strong Girl Bong-soon]]'', [[The Family for the Whole Family|crime boss]] Baek Tak leaves the hospital after waking up almost fully healed thanks to a home remedy provided by the title character's mother, and goes [[The Atoner|on a pilgrimage seeking to change the direction of his life]]. His right-hand-man Agari and another of his [[Mooks]], [[Bandage Mummy|in considerably worse shape]], sneak out of the hospital after him, and only catch up with him at the temple which is his destination.
== [[Web Comics]] ==
