                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



       NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: 

       Basis of Presentation
       ---------------------
       Maxicare Health Plans, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("MHP"), is a
       holding company which owns various subsidiaries, primarily health
       maintenance organizations ("HMOs").    The accompanying unaudited
       consolidated  financial   statements   have   been   prepared  in
       accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles for
       interim financial information.  In the opinion of management, all
       adjustments considered necessary  for  a fair presentation, which
       consist  solely  of  normal   recurring  adjustments,  have  been
       included.      All   significant   inter-company   balances   and
       transactions have been eliminated.  

       For further information on MHP and subsidiaries (collectively the
       "Company") refer  to  the  consolidated  financial statements and
       accompanying footnotes included in the Company's annual report on
       Form 10-K as filed  with  the  Securities and Exchange Commission
       for the year ended December 31, 1995.

       Capital Stock and Net Income Per Common and Common Equivalent
       -------------------------------------------------------------
       Share
       -----

       The Company concluded the  redemption  of its Series A Cumulative
       Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series A  Stock") on March 14, 1995
       (the "Redemption Date").   Holders  of approximately 2.27 million
       shares  of   Series   A   Stock   converted   their  shares  into
       approximately 6.25 million shares  of the Company's Common Stock.
       As a result of the redemption  of  the Series A Stock the Company
       paid no preferred stock  dividends  in 1995, and, accordingly, no
       consideration  is  given  to  preferred  stock  dividends  in the
       calculation of earnings  per  share  for  the  three month period
       ended March 31, 1995.

       Primary earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by
       the weighted average number  of  common shares outstanding, after
       giving effect to stock options  with  an exercise price less than
       the average market price  for  the  period.  Common shares issued
       upon the conversion of preferred  stock have been included in the
       weighted average number  of  common shares outstanding subsequent
       to the conversion date. 

       Fully diluted earnings  per  share  are  computed by dividing net
       income  by  the   weighted   average   number  of  common  shares
       outstanding,  after  giving  effect  to  stock  options  with  an
       exercise price less than the market price at the end of the
                                       6
       <PAGE>
       period (or average market price  if  use of that price results in
       greater dilution) and shares assumed to be issued upon conversion
       of the Company's preferred stock.   Common shares issued upon the
       conversion of preferred stock have  been included in the weighted
       average number of  common  shares  outstanding  and the preferred
       shares have been  excluded  from  the  weighted average number of
       common equivalent shares outstanding subsequent to the conversion
       date.

       Item 2:  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
                -------------------------------------------------
                Condition and Results of Operations
                -----------------------------------

       Results of Operations

       Maxicare  Health  Plans,  Inc.  and  subsidiaries  (the "Company")
       reported net income of  $5.7  million  for  the three months ended
       March 31, 1996, compared to $4.7  million for the same three month
       period in 1995.  Net  income  per  common share on a fully diluted
       basis was $.31 for the first quarter of 1996, compared to $.26 for
       1995.

       For the three months  ended  March  31, 1996, the Company reported
       operating revenues of $131.8 million, an increase of $19.4 million
       or 17.3% when compared to the same  period in 1995.  Of this $19.4
       million increase  in  operating  revenues,  $11.3 million resulted
       from growth  in  the  Company's  Medicaid  and  Medicare  lines of
       business in Indiana  and  California.    The remaining increase in
       operating revenues of $8.1 million  resulted from a 13.6% increase
       in commercial  membership  primarily  in  California  and Indiana,
       partially offset by a  decrease  in the average commercial premium
       revenue per member per month.

       Health care expenses increased 19.1% or $18.6 million in the first
       quarter of 1996 as compared  to  the first quarter of 1995; health
       care expenses as a percentage  of operating revenues (the "medical
       loss ratio")  increased  1.4  percentage  points  to  87.9%.   The
       increase in health care expenses  of $18.6 million was primarily a
       result of  the  growth  in  the  Medicaid  and  Medicare  lines of
       business, both of which have a  higher medical loss ratio than the
       commercial line of business.

       Marketing, general and  administrative  ("MG&A")  expenses for the
       first quarter of 1996 increased  8.2% to $11.4 million as compared
       to 1995.   MG&A  expenses  as  a  percentage of operating revenues
       decreased to 8.7% for  the  three  months  ended March 31, 1996 as
       compared to 9.4% for the first quarter of 1995.

       Net investment income for the  first  quarter of 1996 increased by
       $200,000 to $1.6 million, as compared  to 1995, due to higher cash
       and investment balances.

       The Company reported a $220,000 provision for income taxes for the
       three months ended March  31,  1996  and  an offsetting income tax
       benefit of $220,000 due to the Company increasing its deferred tax
       asset.  The Company reported a $941,000 provision for income taxes
       for the three months ended March 31, 1995.

       Liquidity and Capital Resources

       Certain of  MHP's  operating  subsidiaries  are  subject  to state
       regulations  which  require   compliance  with  certain  statutory
       deposit,   reserve,   dividend    distribution   and   net   worth
       requirements.   To  the  extent  the  operating  subsidiaries must
       comply with these  regulations,  they  may  not have the financial
       flexibility to transfer funds  to  MHP.  MHP's proportionate share
       of net assets (after  inter-company  eliminations) which, at March
       31, 1996, may not  be  transferred  to  MHP by subsidiaries in the
       form of loans, advances or cash dividends without the consent of a
       third party is  referred  to  as  "Restricted  Net Assets".  Total
       Restricted Net Assets of  these  operating subsidiaries were $35.6
       million  at  March  31,   1996,   with  deposit  requirements  and
       limitations imposed by  state  regulations  on the distribution of
       dividends representing  $13.3  million  and  $14.9  million of the
       Restricted Net Assets, respectively, and net worth requirements in
       excess   of   deposit   requirements   and   dividend  limitations
       representing the  remaining  $7.4  million.    The Company's total
       Restricted Net Assets at March  31,  1996  were $35.9 million.  In
       addition to  the  $25.1  million  in  cash,  cash  equivalents and
       marketable securities  held  by  MHP,  approximately $14.2 million
       could be considered available  for  transfer to MHP from operating
       subsidiaries.

       All of MHP's  operating  subsidiaries  are  direct subsidiaries of
       MHP.  All of the Company's HMOs are federally qualified, and, with
       the exception of  the  Company's  South  Carolina  HMO, all of the
       Company's operating HMOs  are  licensed  in  the  state where they
       primarily operate.  The operations  of  the South Carolina HMO are
       currently   under   Bankruptcy   Court   jurisdiction   pending  a
       reorganization of that entity to operate  as a licensed HMO in the
       state of South Carolina.    The  Company  believes that it will be
       able to  ultimately  resolve  the  South  Carolina HMO's licensing
       situation  with  the  state  of  South  Carolina  as  a separately
       licensed HMO in such state or, alternatively, as a division of one
       of its other operating HMOs to  be  licensed to do business in the
       state of South Carolina. The Company  can not predict at this time
       the required capital infusion, if  any,  which may result from the
       separate licensing of the South Carolina HMO in the state of South
       Carolina or operating it  as  a  division  of one of the Company's
       operating HMOs.    If  infusion  of  additional  cash resources is
       required to ensure compliance with statutory deposit and net worth
       requirements, the Company does  not  believe such an infusion will
       have a material adverse effect on its operations taken as a whole.

       The operating HMOs currently pay  monthly  fees to MHP pursuant to
       administrative  services   agreements   for   various  management,
       financial, legal, computer  and  telecommunications services.  The
       Company believes that  for  the  foreseeable  future, it will have
       sufficient resources  to  fund  ongoing  operations  and remain in
       compliance with statutory financial requirements.

       With a  current  ratio  (i.e.  current  assets  divided by current
       liabilities) of  2.5  and  less  than  $1.0  million  in long-term
       liabilities at March 31, 1996,  the  Company does not believe that
       it needs additional working capital at this time.  Although the
                                       9
       <PAGE>
       Company believes it  would  be  able  to  raise additional working
       capital through either an equity  infusion or borrowings, if it so
       desired, the Company can not state with any degree of certainty at
       this time whether  additional  equity  capital  or working capital
       would be available to the  Company,  and if available, would be at
       terms and conditions acceptable to the Company.

       Item 1:  Legal Proceedings
                -----------------

       The information contained in "Part I, Item 3. Legal Proceedings" of
       the  Company's  1995  Annual   Report   on   Form  10-K  is  hereby
       incorporated by reference and the following information updates the
       information contained in the relevant subparts thereof.

       The Company is a defendant in a number of other lawsuits arising in
       the ordinary course  from  the  operations  of  its HMOs, including
       cases in which the plaintiffs  assert claims against the Company or
       third parties that  might  assert  indemnity or contribution claims
       against the Company for  malpractice,  negligence, bad faith in the
       failure to pay claims on a timely basis or denial of coverage.  The
       Company does not believe that  adverse  determination in any one or
       more of these cases would  have  a  material, adverse effect on the
       Company's business and operations.
