Ladies and Gentlemen:
We were previously principal accountants for Bone Care International, Inc.
and, under the date of August 6, 1999 we reported on the consolidated financial
statements of Bone Care International, Inc. and subsidiary as of and for the
years ended June 30, 1999 and 1998. During the period July 1, 1999 to January
26, 2000, in connection with our review of Bone Care International Inc.'s second
quarter financial statements, we had a disagreement with management regarding
the company's method of recognizing revenue and the amount of revenue recorded.
We have read the statements of Bone Care International, Inc., included
under Item 4 of its Form 8-K dated January 27, 2000, and we agree with such
statements, except that: 1) we do not agree with the statement that on January
27, 2000, Bone Care International, Inc. (the "Registrant") dismissed KPMG LLP
("KPMG") as its independent accountant. We were notified of our dismissal on
January 26, 2000; and 2) we are not in a position to agree or disagree with Bone
Care International, Inc.'s statement that the decision to dismiss KPMG was
approved by the Board of Directors and was not separately voted on by the Audit
Committee of the Board of Directors.
Very truly yours,
/s/ KPMG LLP
