Explanation of Responses:
(1)
Prior to the Effective Time of the Merger, the reporting person was a shareholder and optionee of PHAMIS and all of the reporting
person's PHAMIS Common Stock and options for PHAMIS Common Stock have been converted into IDX Common Stock and options for IDX
Common Stock.
(2)
Such shares being sold were acquired in a transaction exempt under Rule 16b-3(d).
(3)
Beneficial holdings reflected on this report do not include changes in the reporting person's holdings of securities resulting from
the reporting person's participation in the issuer's qualified employee stock plan, since the last filing of a report disclosing
transactions resulting from such participation.
(4)
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of 3/25/97 (the 'Merger Agreement'), between PHAMIS, Inc.
('PHAMIS') and IDX Systems Corporation ('IDX'), all options became 100% vested and exercisable immediately prior the Merger. The
Effective Time of the Merger was July 10, 1997 and all options became exercisable as of that date.
(5)
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the purchase price per share of IDX Common Stock is determined by dividing the
purchase price per share of PHAMIS Common Stock subject to the PHAMIS option by the Conversion Ratio. For example, the reporting
person was granted options for PHAMIS stock on 01/25/96 at a purchase price of $24.00 ($24.00/.73 = $32.88)
