                         ENTERPRISE SYSTEMS TO ACQUIRE
                         CONTINENTAL MATERIALS DIVISION


WHEELING, IL--May 28, 1996--Enterprise Systems, Inc. (ESi), a leading provider
of healthcare information management software, announced today plans to acquire
the materials management division of Continental Healthcare Systems, Inc. of
Overland Park, Kansas for approximately $13.9 million.

"This combination will enable us to strengthen our leadership role in materials
management, broaden our product line with the addition of the UNIX-based Matkon
solution that caters to large healthcare networks, and pool our experience to
take the best ideas of Enterprise and Continental and offer superior products
and services to our clients," commented Chief Executive Officer Glen Tullman.

The acquisition will increase Enterprise's client base, close to 1,000
healthcare organizations, and provide additional cross-selling opportunities for
ESi's healthcare resource management product suite, which includes materials
management, operating room logistics and enterprise-wide patient and staff
scheduling.

"The shared vision of the two organizations and the complementary nature of the
product lines made this a natural fit," said Mike Forgash, president of
Continental. "Pooling our R & D dollars, as well as our sales, implementations
and client service experience, will be a big win for our clients. They will now
get the best of both worlds," added Forgash.

Enterprise will continue to sell, support and enhance the Matkon product line
and maintain Matkon facilities in Overland Park and Denver, CO, while
consolidating an Illinois location. "Continental's people and experience base
are key to our continued success, and we want to capitalize on their experience
and relationships," commented Tullman.

Enterprise Systems, founded in 1981, serves healthcare organizations throughout
North America. ESi offers an integrated suite of resource management software in
a Windows-based, client-server environment that helps healthcare organizations
manage people, supplies, equipment, facilities and services. ESi works closely
with its healthcare clients to improve business processes, reduce costs and
improve patient care across the continuum of care.
