taken care of
Seen to already
Taken care of describes something that has been handled, managed, or resolved.
When a task or problem is taken care of, it no longer requires attention: Don't worry about the bill—it's already taken care of.
The phrase can also mean someone has been provided for or looked after: Make sure the guests are taken care of.
In darker contexts, especially in crime narratives, taken care of is a euphemism for killed or eliminated.
