                    NEW YORK HEALTH CARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

The  accompanying  unaudited  financial  statements,  which  are for an  interim
period,  do  not  include  all  disclosures  provided  in the  annual  financial
statements.  These unaudited financial  statements should be read in conjunction
with the financial  statements and the footnotes thereto contained in the Annual
Report  on  Form  10-KSB  for the  year  ended  December  31,  1998 of New  York
Healthcare,  Inc.  and  Subsidiary  (the  "Corporation"),   as  filed  with  the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

In  the  opinion  of  the  Corporation,  the  accompanying  unaudited  financial
statements  contain all  adjustments  (which are of a normal  recurring  nature)
necessary for a fair  presentation of the financial  statements.  The results of
operations  for the  three  months  ended  March  31,  1999 are not  necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

NOTE 2 - EARNINGS/LOSS PER SHARE:

Basic earnings or loss per share  excludes  dilution and is computed by dividing
earnings  available to common  shareholders  by the weighted  average  number of
common shares outstanding for the period.

Diluted earnings or loss per share is computed by dividing earnings available to
common  shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
for the period, adjusted to reflect potentially dilutive securities. Options and
warrants  were not  included in the  computation  of diluted  earnings per share
because the exercise  price was greater than the market price of the stock.  The
Convertible  Preferred  Stock is not  included  in the  computation  of  diluted
earnings per share because the effect is anti-dilutive.

Net (loss)  income per common  share and common share  equivalent  for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 and 1999 is computed as follows:

NOTE 3 - ACQUISITIONS:

On February 8, 1998,  the  Corporation  purchased  the customer  lists and other
intangible  assets  of three  offices  in the  State of New  Jersey  from  Metro
Healthcare Services,  Inc. for $500,000 cash and a promissory note in the amount
of $580,000.  The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and,  accordingly,
the assets  acquired  have been recorded at their  estimated  fair values at the
date of  acquisition.  The  excess  of cost over  fair  values of the  purchased
business has been  allocated to goodwill,  customer  lists and other  intangible
assets  and is being  amortized  over 25 and 10 years,  respectively.  Operating
results  of the  business  have  been  included  in the  consolidated  financial
statements of the Corporation since the date of acquisition.

The sum of the purchase  price of $1,080,000  plus costs  incurred in making the
acquisition ($39,000) aggregating  $1,119,000 exceeded the fair value of the net
assets of the three offices  acquired at the date of  acquisition by $1,089,000;
$30,000 of the purchase price was assigned to acquired furnitures and fixtures.

On March 26,  1998,  the  Corporation  purchased  the  customer  lists and other
intangible  assets of another  entity.  The entity is related to the Corporation
through  common  ownership  and  management.  The  aggregate  purchase  price is
$1,150,000.  This amount was paid  through  issuance of a promissory  note.  The
acquisition  was  accounted  for as a  purchase  and,  accordingly,  the  assets
acquired  have  been  recorded  at their  estimated  fair  values at the date of
acquisition.  The excess of cost over fair values of the purchased  business has
been allocated to goodwill,  customer lists and other intangibles  assets and is
being  amortized over 25 and 10 years,  respectively.  Operating  results of the
business  have been  included in the  consolidated  financial  statements of the
Corporation since the date of acquisition.

The purchase price of $1,150,000  plus costs incurred in making the  acquisition
($45,000)  aggregating  $1,195,000  exceeded  the fair  value of the net  assets
acquired at the date of acquisition  by $1,185,000.  The purchase price has been
allocated  to  furniture  and  fixtures  for  $10,000;  $55,000 was  assigned to
contract value and customers lists and $1,130,000 was assigned to goodwill.

On  February  22,  1999,  the  Corporation  purchased  customer  lists and other
intangible  assets from Staff  Builders  Services,  Inc.  Shrewsbury  office for
$65,000.  The purchase  price has been  allocated to furniture  and fixtures for
$25,000 and the remaining $40,000 to customers lists and other intangibles.

     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
                                 OF OPERATIONS

Three  months  ended March 31, 1999  compared  with three months ended March 31,
1998.

Results of operations

Revenues  for  the  three  months  ended  March  31,  1999  increased  11.1%  to
approximately  $5,085,000  from  approximately  $4,576,000  for the three months
ended March 31, 1998.  The  increase is  primarily  the result of the New Jersey
offices,  purchased in the first quarter of 1998, being fully operational in the
first quarter of 1999. Revenue from existing New York contracts  decreased 13.0%
or approximately $449,000. This was offset by a gain in revenue of approximately
$447,000 from the new New York City HRA contract.

Cost of professional  care of patients for the three months ended March 31, 1999
increased 11.6% to approximately  $3,646,000 from  approximately  $3,222,000 for
the three  months  ended  March 31,  1998.  The  increase  resulted  from hiring
additional  home health care personnel to service the increased  business in New
Jersey  and  the HRA  contract  offset  by the  loss in the  existing  New  York
business.  The cost of professional care of patients as a percentage of revenues
increased 1.7% to approximately  71.7% for the three months ended March 31, 1999
from approximately 70.4% for three months ended March 31, 1998. The increase was
primarily  caused by increased  wage rates to home health aides,  skilled nurses
and  therapists  in the  State of New  Jersey.  In  addition,  the HRA  contract
provides a lower gross profit than other contracts.

Selling,  general and  administrative  expenses for the three months ended March
31,  1999  increased  21.1%  to  approximately   $1,480,000  from  approximately
$1,105,000  for the three  months ended March 31,  1998.  The increase  resulted
primarily  from the New Jersey  offices  purchased  in 1998 which  became  fully
operational during the first quarter of 1999. In addition,  a new branch office,
New York Home  Attendant  Agency,  was  established  at previously  sublet space
adjacent to the Company's corporate headquarters to service the HRA contract for
the caseload being phased in during 1999.  Selling,  general and  administrative
expenses as a percentage of revenue increased to 29.1% from 24.2% as a result of
increased wages for marketing and business  development,  decreased revenue from
existing contracts in New York and increased general and administrative expenses
for  the  New  York  Home  Attendant   branch  office,   which  are  running  at
approximately  31.8%  of  revenue  as the  office  builds  its  caseload  to the
contracted level.

Interest  expense  for the three  months  ended  March  31,  1999  increased  to
approximately  $82,000 as compared to approximately $55,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1998,  primarily  as a result of increased  borrowing to finance
the  purchases  of the New  Jersey  offices  and to  fund  the  newly  generated
receivables.

The credit for  federal,  state and local taxes for the three months ended March
31,  1999 of $86,000 is the result of the loss for the period as compared to the
approximately  $71,000  provision for taxes for the three months ended March 31,
1998, which was the result of the income for the period.

In view of the  foregoing,  net loss for the three  months  ended March 31, 1999
amounted to approximately  $114,000 as compared to approximately $113,000 in net
income for the three months ended March 31, 1998.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the three  months  ended March 31,  1999,  net cash used in  operations  was
$251,000 as compared to $727,000 during the three months ended March 31, 1998, a
decrease of $476,000 or 65.5%. The $251,000 used in the three months ended March
31, 1999 was principally for the funding of the HRA contract's receivables.  The
$727,000  used in the three months ended March 31, 1998 was  principally  due to
the  approximately  $1,144,000  increase in  accounts  receivable  and  unbilled
services, offset by an

<PAGE>

approximately  $288,000 increase in accrued payroll,  accounts  payable,  income
taxes  payable,  and  approximately  $113,000  in net  income.  The  increase in
accounts  receivable in 1998 was primarily the result of the  acquisition of the
New Jersey offices.

Net cash used in investing  activities for the three months ended March 31, 1999
approximates $81,000, primarily for the acquisition of the Staff Builders office
in  Shrewsbury,  New Jersey.  Net cash provided by financing  activities for the
three  months  ended  March 31, 1999  totaled  $335,000  compared to  $1,425,000
provided in the three months ended March 31, 1998.

The $500,000  borrowed in the three  months  ended March 31, 1999 was  primarily
used to fund the start up of the New York Home  Attendant  Agency,  which  began
servicing  patients on January 6, 1999.  Approximately  $500,000 borrowed in the
three months ended March 31, 1998 was used for the acquisition of the New Jersey
offices  and an  additional  $600,000  was used to fund  their  newly  generated
receivables.  As of March 31, 1999, the Company has borrowings under its line of
credit which exceed its  availability by approximately  $290,000.  The Company's
management is currently  working with the lender to restructure the availability
calculation and is seeking to convert borrowings used for acquisitions to a term
note.

As of  March  31,  1999,  approximately  $6,120,000  (approximately  59%) of the
Company's  total assets  consisted of accounts  receivable  from clients who are
reimbursed by third-party payors, as compared to $5,993,000  (approximately 60%)
as of  March  31,  1998,  a  decrease  of  1%.  Such  payors  generally  require
substantial documentation in order to process claims.

Days Sales Outstanding  ("DSO") is a measure of the average number of days taken
by the  Company to collect its  accounts  receivable,  calculated  from the date
services are billed.  For the three months ended March 31, 1999,  the  Company's
DSO was 107, compared to 116 days for the three months ended March 31, 1998. The
improvement of 9 days in DSO is the net effect of combining the New Jersey DSO's
(which  consist  primarily  of Medicaid  billings) of 48 days and the New York's
DSO's which are 143 days and the HRA contract's DSO which are currently 76 days.
Once the HRA contract is operating at its full caseload,  payment is expected in
less than 45 days from invoice  date.  The Company  received  its first  payment
under the HRA contract on April 9, 1999 for the Company  services billed through
February 28, 1999.

The Company's liquidity and long-term capital  requirements depend upon a number
of factors,  including the lag time to realize  collections of amounts billed to
clients for services  provided and the rate at which new offices and  facilities
are established and  acquisitions,  if any, are completed.  The Company believes
that the  development  and  start-up  costs for a new  branch  office  aggregate
approximately $100,000, including leasehold improvements, lease deposits, office
equipment,   marketing,   recruiting,  labor  and  operating  costs  during  the
pre-opening  and start-up  phase,  and also the provision of working  capital to
fund  accounts  receivable.  Such  costs will vary  depending  upon the size and
location of each facility and,  accordingly,  may vary  substantially from these
estimates.

The Company is actively pursuing  potential  acquisitions.  Further expansion of
the Company's business may require the Company to incur additional debt or offer
additional  equity  if  internally  generated  funds,  cash on hand and  amounts
available  under its bank credit  facilities  are inadequate to meet such needs.
There can be no assurance that such  additional debt or equity will be available
to the Company, or, if available, will be on terms acceptable to the Company.

Potential Regulatory Changes

There  have  been  news  reports  regarding  potential  changes  in the  way the
Government  will reimburse  home health care companies in the future,  including
the   possibility  of   capitation.   While  the  Company  is  not  currently  a
Medicare-Certified  Home Health  Agency  subject to these  changes,  most of the
Company's  referral  sources are and they may be  negatively  impacted by future
legislation which may be adopted to control home health care costs.  While it is
still premature to discern what impact,  if any, the potential  changes may have
on the Company's  operations,  there can be no assurance that future legislation
will not result in reduced reimbursement rates from referral sources.

Year 2000 Issues

The "Year 2000" Issue is the result of computer  systems and programs  using two
digits rather than four digits to define the applicable  year.  Computer systems
and programs that have  date-sensitive  applications  may recognize a date using
"00" as the year  1900  rather  than the Year  2000.  This can  result in system
failures or miscalculations causing disruption of operations including,  but not
limited to, complete system failures, erroneous results and inability to process
transactions,  send invoices, make payments or otherwise conduct normal business
activities.

The Company  has  initiated  a "Year  2000"  compliance  program in which it has
identified the following areas of significant risk; computer hardware,  computer
software and cash flow.

The Company presently operates two independent  computer networks;  a Unix-based
system for payroll and billing functions and a Windows NT-based system for other
accounting, word processing and database functions. The Company's billing system
has been modified by the software vendor and is Year 2000 compliant. The Company
expects to complete  testing of the software by the end of the second quarter of
1999.  The  Windows  NT-based  system  for  the  Company's  general  ledger  and
accounting  software,  as well as its Microsoft Office software package for word
processing and database functions, are already Year 2000 compliant.

The Company obtained the services of an outside  consultant to make an inventory
of all of its computer hardware and software in all of its offices and to design
and  implement  a  communications  network  that will link all of the  Company's
facilities and computer  systems.  The principal  focus of that assessment is on
the  Company's  hardware  and  operating  systems for its  computer  network and
telephone  system,  which  have the most  significant  effect  on the  Company's
ability to conduct business in a normal manner. The new communications  network,
and all new hardware and software,  will be Year 2000 compliant.  At the present
time, all computers in the corporate headquarters have been replaced.  Upgrading
and  implementation  of the new system has begun and is expected to be completed
at the branch  office  level in the second  quarter of 1999,  where the  Company
anticipates replacing  approximately 25 desktop computers which may not function
properly on the Year 2000 compliant  network.  The new network is expected to be
fully operational during the second quarter of 1999.

The Company has begun  formal  communications  with its  significant  payors and
vendors to determine  the extent to which the Company may be vulnerable to those
third parties'  failures to remediate their own Year 2000 issues.  The Company's
management  believes  that the failure of such vendors to  remediate  their Year
2000 issues in a timely manner will not have a material  adverse effect upon the
Company.  However,  there can be no assurance that the computer  systems of such
third  parties  will  be  remedied  in a  timely  manner  or  that  failures  or
incompatibility  issues  arising  out of the  remediation  methods of such third
parties  will not have a  material  adverse  effect on the  Company.  Management
believes  that,  so long as the  Company's  ability to provide its  services and
process its payroll and billing is unaffected by Year 2000 issues, the Company's
available  line of credit will be adequate  to sustain  operations  in the event
significant  payors  are  temporarily  unable to make  timely  payment  of their
obligations to the Company.


<PAGE>

At  the  present  time,  the  Company  has a Year  2000  remediation  budget  of
approximately $50,000;  $25,000 of which is for the replacement of non-compliant
hardware,   $15,000  for  consulting  services  and  $10,000  for  software  and
contingencies.  As of March 31, 1999 the Company has used approximately  $12,000
of its Year 2000 budget.

The Company's assessment of its Year 2000 issues is based upon management's best
estimates,  which have been  derived  utilizing  assumptions  of future  events,
including the availability of certain resources,  third-party modification plans
and other factors, and there can be no assurance that management's assessment of
the  Company's  Year 2000 issues will not have to be revised as a result of Year
2000  compliance  problems  which may be  revealed in the future and which could
have a material adverse effect on the Company.
