Item 2.  Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On May 31, 1996, C.I.S. Technologies, Inc. ("CIS") was acquired by the
Registrant through the merger of CIS with and into a subsidiary (NDC
Merger Corp.) of the Registrant.  After the merger, CIS was the
surviving corporation, and the Registrant became the sole shareholder
of CIS.

In the merger, each share of CIS Common Stock and Series A Preferred
Stock (together the "CIS Common Stock") ceased to be outstanding and
was converted into the right to receive .08682 shares of the
Registrant's Common Stock.  The acquisition will be accounted for
using the pooling of interests method of accounting.  The Registrant
will issue approximately 2,829,746 shares of Registrant's Common Stock
in exchange for the outstanding CIS Capital Stock.

Approval of the transactions described herein required the affirmative
vote of a majority of the CIS Capital Stock outstanding and entitled
to vote and the affirmative vote of a majority of the Series A
Preferred Stock outstanding and entitled to vote, each voting as a
separate class, at a special meeting of CIS shareholders held May 30,
1996.  As of the record date, April 25, 1996, there were 30,188,589
shares of CIS Common Stock and 2,384,182 shares of CIS Series A
Preferred Stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the
special meeting.  At the special meeting, 16,524,822 shares of CIS
Common Stock and 2,384,182 shares of CIS Series A Preferred Stock were
voted.  All of the CIS Series A Preferred shares and 16,046,833 shares
of the CIS Common Stock voted in favor of the merger.

CIS's tangible fixed assets, principally computer hardware and
communications equipment, are used to provide transaction processing,
consulting and outsourcing services to the health care market,
primarily hospitals and physicians.  The Registrant intends to
continue the same or similar use of the assets of CIS.
