Item 2.    Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

     As of November 1, 1999, pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of
August 30, 1999, as amended by an Amendment to Asset Purchase Agreement dated as
of November 1, 1999, the Company purchased substantially all of the assets and
assumed certain of the liabilities of Paramedical Services of America, Inc.
("PSAI") from Pediatric Services of America, Inc. ("PSA") and its wholly owned
subsidiary PSAI.  The assets purchased comprised PSAI's business of providing
medical testing and examination services for the life and health insurance
industries.  The assets generally include:  contract rights, goodwill, sales and
client data, leases, inventory, intellectual property and accounts receivable.
The Company intends to continue to use the assets acquired in a manner
consistent with their use prior to their acquisition by the Company.

     The purchase price of $81 million, payable in cash, was determined through
arms-length negotiations between the parties and was adjusted at closing based
on:  (1) the business condition of PSAI at closing, and (2) the value of PSAI's
current accounts receivable at closing.  The Company placed a portion of the
purchase price, $10,187,500, into escrow to be distributed to the Company if:
(a) it does not receive audited financial statements of PSAI for its 1998 and
1999 fiscal years by February 15, 2000, (b) it does not receive, by February 15,
2000, a consent of PSAI's auditors to use PSAI's auditor's opinion on the
audited financial statements in its registration statements, and (c) PSAI's
audited net revenues for the year ended September 30, 1999 are less than $80
million.  A portion of the escrow will also be distributed to certain contract
affiliates of PSAI who remain with the Company through May 1, 2000.  The Company
financed the acquisition of PSAI's assets through existing cash and a $65
million term loan from a group of lenders of which First Union National Bank is
lead arranger and administrative agent.  Prior to the execution of the Asset
Purchase Agreement, the Company had no material relationship with PSA, PSAI or
any of their affiliates.
