PROSPECTUS

                          INNOSERV TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
                                  COMMON STOCK
                                ($.01 PAR VALUE)
                                2,026,438 SHARES
   
    This Prospectus relates to 2,026,438 shares (the "Securities") of Common
Stock, par value $.01 per share ("Common Stock"), of InnoServ Technologies,
Inc., a California corporation (the "Company"), which are beneficially owned
by MEDIQ Incorporated (the "Distributing Shareholder") and substantially all
of which will be distributed to its common and preferred stockholders as a 
dividend (the "Distribution"). This Prospectus also relates to those securities
received as part of the Distribution by stockholders of the Distributing 
Shareholder who are then deemed to be "affiliates" (as defined in the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended) of the Company after the Distribution (each such 
person, an "Affiliate Stockholder"). The Company expects that the Affiliate 
Stockholders will include Michael F. Sandler, the Rotko Trust (as defined 
below), Bernard J. Korman, Thomas E. Carroll, Michael J. Rotko, Bessie G. 
Rotko and Judith M. Shipon.
    
   
    The Securities were issued to the Distributing Shareholder in connection 
with the acquisition by the Company of MEDIQ Equipment and Maintenance 
Services, Inc., formerly a subsidiary of the Distributing Shareholder. The 
Company is registering the Securities pursuant to the terms of an Agreement 
of Merger and Plan of Reorganization dated May 18, 1994, as amended by 
Amendment No. 1 thereto dated October 24, 1995 (the "Reorganization 
Agreement"), between the Company and the Distributing Shareholder in order to 
provide the Distributing Shareholder with the opportunity to distribute the 
Securities to its stockholders so as to provide those stockholders with 
freely tradeable securities.
    
   
    The Company will not receive any of the proceeds from the distribution or
resale of the Securities. The Company will pay all of the expenses associated
with the registration of the Securities, estimated to be approximately $50,000.
The Distributing Shareholder will pay for the costs of the Distribution and the
Affiliate Stockholders will pay the other costs, if any, associated with any 
sale by them of the Securities. 
    
   
     The Common Stock is quoted on the Nasdaq National Market under the symbol
"ISER." On September 6, 1996, the last reported sale price per share of the 
Common Stock, as quoted on the Nasdaq National Market, was $4.25.

                                 RISK FACTORS

    The Securities offered hereby are speculative in nature and involve a 
high degree of risk.  In addition to the other information included elsewhere 
in this Prospectus, the following factors should be considered carefully in 
evaluating an investment in the Securities offered by this Prospectus.

ABSENCE OF EARNINGS

    For the fiscal years ending April 30, 1996 and 1995, the Company has
reported net losses of approximately $7,200,000 and $3,600,000, respectively.
No assurances can be given that the Company will achieve future profitability 
at any specific time.

COMPETITION

    The health care industry in general and the market for medical equipment 
maintenance, distribution and diagnostic services in particular are highly 
competitive.  With respect to its medical equipment maintenance services, the 
Company competes with both medical equipment manufacturers, most of which 
have significantly greater financial and marketing resources than the 
Company, and other third party maintenance service companies.  Certain larger 
hospitals also provide in-house maintenance service on their own equipment.  
With respect to its distribution services, the Company competes with other 
distributors, manufacturers and equipment resellers such as brokers, leasing 
companies, and individual health care providers, many of whom have financial 
and marketing resources substantially greater than those of the Company.  New 
competitors might arise if they are able to obtain services and products from 
the Company's suppliers who are open and accessible.  New competitors might 
organize into regional or national networks.  If competition significantly 
increased in the future, the Company's profitability may be limited.  Such a 
limitation would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business.

RISKS OF REDUCED CUSTOMER BASE ASSOCIATED WITH CONSOLIDATION OF THE HEALTH CARE 
INDUSTRY

    Health care providers, including hospitals and integrated health systems, 
continue to consolidate.  As a result of consolidation, the Company's 
customer base may be reduced.  The Company's customers may be consolidated 
into or acquired by other entities.  Purchasing decisions may shift to 
individuals with whom the Company has no prior selling relationship.  A 
significant reduction in the Company's customer base would have an adverse 
effect on the Company's business.

REGULATION OF THE HEALTH CARE INDUSTRY

    The Company services health care institutions, such as hospitals.  The 
health care industry is subject to extensive government regulation at both 
the federal and state levels.  Health care institutions will accept the 
Company's services only if such services are in compliance with government 
regulation.  The Company tracks government regulations and offers services 
designed to comply with such regulation.  Nevertheless, significant changes 
in the substance and the level of government regulation could have a material 
adverse effect on the Company's business.

    Similarly, federal and state laws regulate the relationships between 
providers, supplies and consumers of health care services.  For example, 
Medicare and Medicaid statutes prohibit the solicitation, payment, receipt or 
offering of any remuneration for the recommending, arranging, 
    

                                       3

<PAGE>

   
ordering or purchasing of Medicare or Medicaid covered services.  Violations 
of federal and state laws may result in substantial civil or criminal 
penalties.  Such penalties might include large civil monetary penalties or 
exclusion from the Medicare and Medicaid programs.


DEPENDENCE ON THIRD-PARTY REIMBURSEMENT

    The health care industry is subject to changing political, regulatory and 
economic influences that affect the operational aspects of health care 
providers in the Company's target market. A number of federal and state 
proposals to control health care costs contain measures intended to control 
public and private spending on health care as well as to provide universal 
public access to the health care system. Government and private insurance 
programs that fund a significant portion of the health care market in the 
United States, such as Medicare, Medicaid and corporate health insurance 
plans, are often the focus of these proposals. Recently, government-imposed 
limits on reimbursements of health care providers have significantly impacted 
spending budgets in certain markets within the medical supply and equipment 
industry.  Private third-party reimbursement plans are also developing 
increasingly sophisticated methods of controlling health care costs through 
redesign of benefits and exploration of more cost-effective methods of 
delivering health care.  Accordingly, the Company cannot be assured that its 
customers will continue to have sufficient spendable funds for purchase and 
use of the Company's services.  A material reduction in the purchasing of 
such services could adversely affect the Company's business. Also, 
significant changes in the nation's health care system could have an adverse 
impact on the Company's business, although the impact of such changes cannot 
be predicted with any certainty.


GOVERNMENT REGULATION

    Federal antitrust laws regulate the Company's business.  For example, the 
Sherman and Clayton Acts prohibit exclusive dealing arrangements, such as 
"sole source" contracts with vendors, if such contracts involve a significant 
degree of foreclosure of the market place that effectively excludes 
competitors from a relevant market.  The Robinson-Patman Act prohibits 
certain types of discriminatory pricing by vendors and the payment of 
"brokerage" by a vendor to an agent of the purchaser.  The Company attempts 
to conduct its current operations in material compliance with existing 
applicable antitrust laws.  Nevertheless, the Company cannot be assured that 
its existing relationships will not be successfully challenged under the 
antitrust laws.

    State and federal agencies, such as the Occupational Safety and Health 
Administration and the Environmental Protection Agency, have jurisdiction 
over the Company and its customers.  This jurisdiction includes, but is not 
limited to, worker safety, community "right to know" laws and environmental 
regulation.  Under these laws and regulations, real estate owners and lessees 
may be liable for the cost of investigating environmental problems, cleaning 
up certain hazardous substances and restoring property.  Such laws often 
impose liability without regard to whether the owner or lessee knew of, or 
was responsible for, the presence of hazardous substances.  Future 
environmental legislation or regulation may negatively affect the Company's 
business.  Also, the Company believes it is in substantial compliance with 
the applicable standards pursuant to such laws and regulations.  
Nevertheless, the Company cannot be assured that it will not be materially 
adversely affected by existing or future requirements or incur materially 
increased operating costs in complying therewith.

    Furthermore, the Company cannot be assured that courts and regulatory 
authorities will not review the Company's business and make determinations 
that might adversely affect the Company's business.  Similarly, the Company 
cannot be assured that health care regulations will not change and restrict 
the Company's profitability.
    
                                       4

<PAGE>

   

DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL

    The Company's future success will depend on the performance of a number 
of key employees, including its officers.  Even where the Company has an 
employment agreement with such employees, the Company cannot ensure their 
continued employment.  The loss of any key employee could have a material 
adverse effect on the Company's business.  Similarly, the Company depends on 
its ability to recruit skilled technical, financial, managerial and marketing 
personnel.  Competition for such personnel is strong.  The Company cannot be 
assured that it will succeed in hiring retaining the personnel needed.

RELIANCE ON DATA PROCESSING

    The Company's business is dependent upon its ability to obtain, process, 
analyze and manage data and to maintain and upgrade its data processing 
capabilities.  Interruption of data processing capabilities for any extended 
length of time, the failure to upgrade data services, difficulties in 
converting data and information systems after acquisitions, loss of stored 
data, programming errors or other problems with computer programs could have 
a material adverse effect on the Company's business.

POTENTIAL LEGAL LIABILITIES

    The servicing, maintenance and resale of medical equipment entail risks 
associated with product liability.  Also, the Company may be sued for 
negligence or upon related legal theories arising out of services provided by 
the Company.  Liability insurance coverage is expensive, difficult to obtain 
and may be unobtainable in the future on acceptable terms, if at all.  Even 
with insurance, claims or judgments may be excess of the Company's coverage 
limits or may not be covered by the Company's insurance policies.  Such 
claims could have a material adverse effect upon the Company's business.  In 
addition, legal claims against the Company--regardless of merit or 
outcome--may have a material adverse effect upon the Company's business.

ANTI-TAKEOVER CONSIDERATIONS

    Certain provisions of the Company's Articles of Incorporation, By-Laws, 
California law and agreements with other parties could, together or 
separately, discourage potential acquisition 
    
                                       5

<PAGE>

   
proposals, delay or prevent a change in control of the Company and limit 
the price that certain investors might be willing to pay in the future for 
the Company's Common Stock.  Such provisions may include the issuance, without 
further stockholder approval, of preferred stock with rights and preferences 
which could be senior to the Common Stock.

POTENTIAL VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE

    The market price of the Company's Common Stock could be subject to 
significant fluctuations due to various factors, including changes in the 
Company's operating results, announcements of new products by the Company or 
by its competitors, health care or reimbursement policy changes by government 
or insurance companies or a change in securities analysts' recommendations.  
These fluctuations, as well as general economic and market conditions, may 
adversely affect the market price of the Company's Common Stock.  In 
addition, a number of new stockholders will receive the Company's Common 
Stock in connection with the Distribution and not in connection with a 
decision by the stockholder to purchase the Common Stock.  Sales of 
substantial amounts of Common Stock in the public market could adversely 
affect the market price of the Common Stock.

ABSENCE OF DIVIDENDS

    Although the Company has in the past declared and paid cash dividends on 
its Common Stock, the Company, at present, intends to retain all earnings for 
use in the operation and development of its business.  The Company does not 
expect to declare or pay cash dividends on it Common Stock in the foreseeable 
future.  At present, certain loan agreements of the Company prohibit the 
payment of dividends by the Company.

                            DISTRIBUTING SHAREHOLDER

    The Distributing Shareholder received the Securities in connection with 
the Company's acquisition of MEDIQ Equipment and Maintenance Services, Inc. 
As part of the acquisition and pursuant to the terms of the Reorganization 
Agreement, the Company agreed to use its best efforts to register, among 
other things, the Securities issued to the Distributing Shareholder for 
distribution by the Distributing Shareholder as a dividend to its common and
preferred stockholders and the Distributing Shareholder agreed to distribute the
Securities as a pro rata dividend to its stockholders, as if the common and 
preferred stockholders were one class, within 60 days after registration of the
Securities. The Company expects that the Distributing Shareholder will not 
distribute fractional shares of the Securities to its common and preferred 
stockholders. Instead, the Distributing Shareholder has advised the Company 
that it will sell any such fractional shares on the open market.
   
    The Distributing Shareholder, MEDIQ Incorporated, owns 2,026,438 shares of
the Company's Common Stock as of September 9, 1996. The Distributing 
Shareholder is offering 2,026,438 shares of the Company's Common Stock 
hereby, approximately 40.2% of the class.
    
                            AFFILIATE STOCKHOLDERS
   
    The Affiliate Stockholders are expected to receive a portion of the
Securities in connection with the Distribution. Pursuant to the terms of the
Reorganization Agreement, the Company agreed to use its best efforts to register
the subsequent sale, within 180 days after the Registration Statement of which
this Prospectus is a part becomes effective, of the Securities distributed to 
the Affiliate Stockholders. The Reorganization Agreement also provides that 
Affiliate Stockholders shall not sell an amount of the Securities to any one 
purchaser constituting more than 5% of then outstanding Common Stock pursuant 
to this Prospectus.
    
   
    The Company expects that, based on the Affiliate Stockholders' ownership 
of the common stock of the Distributing Shareholder, the Affiliate 
Stockholders will own after the Distribution the approximate number of shares 
of the Company's Common Stock set forth below.  Michael Sandler is a Director 
of the Company and a Director and the Chief Financial Officer of the 
Distributing Shareholder. Bernard J. Korman is a Director of the Company. 
Thomas E. Carroll is a nominee for Director of the Company and President of 
the Distributing Shareholder.  The Trust established by Bernard B. Rotko, 
Settlor, under Agreement dated November 18, 1983 (the "Rotko Trust"), 
Michael J. Rotko, Chairman of the Board of the Distributing Shareholder, 
Bessie G. Rotko and Judith G. Shipon, who together with Michael J. Rotko 
are trustees of the Rotko Trust, are affiliates of the Company as a result of 
the Rotko Trust's ownership of the Company's Common Stock and are expected to 
be affiliates of the Company after the Distribution.  Except as noted below, the
Securities offered represent all of the Securities owned by the respective 
Affiliate Stockholder.

part of the Distribution and hereby registered for a period of 180 days after
the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part becomes effective.
The registration of the Securities, however, does not necessarily mean that

                              PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
   
    Pursuant to the Reorganization Agreement, the Distributing Shareholder has 
agreed to distribute the Securities as a dividend to its common and preferred 
stockholders within 60 days after registration of the Securities. The 
Distributing Shareholder will pay for the expenses incurred in the Distribution 
of the Securities, except for all expenses incurred by the Company in connection

registration and qualification fees, printers' and accounting fees, fees and 
disbursements of counsel for the Company, which will be borne by the Company.

    The Affiliate Stockholders may offer the Securities for sale from time to 
time for 180 days after the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus 
is a part becomes effective. Sales of the Securities by the Affiliate 
Stockholders may be made on the Nasdaq National Market or the 
over-the-counter market or otherwise at prices and on terms then prevailing 
or at prices related to the then current market price, or in negotiated 
transactions.

      The Securities may be sold in (i) a block trade in which the broker or 
dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the Securities as agent but may 
position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the 
transaction, (ii) transactions in which a broker or dealer acts as principal 
and resells the Securities for its account pursuant to this Prospectus, and 
(iii) ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker 
solicits purchases. In effecting sales, brokers or dealers engaged by the 
Affiliate Stockholders may arrange for other brokers or dealers to 
participate. The Affiliate Stockholders also may, from time to time, 
authorize underwriters acting as their agents to offer and sell Securities 
upon such terms and conditions as shall be set forth in any prospectus 
supplement. Underwriters, brokers or dealers will receive commissions or 
discounts from Affiliate Stockholders in amounts to be negotiated immediately 
prior to sale. Such underwriters, brokers or dealers and any other 
participating brokers or dealers may be deemed to be "underwriters" within 
the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales and any 
discounts and commissions received by them and any profit realized by them on 
the resale of the Securities may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and 
commissions under the Securities Act.

     There is no assurance that any of the Affiliate Stockholders will offer 
for sale or sell any or all of the Securities covered by this Prospectus. The 
Company has been advised by certain of the Affiliate Stockholders that they 
or their pledgees, donees, tranferees or other successors in interest may 
sell all, a portion of, or none of the Securities covered by this Prospectus.

    Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the Company by Gibson, Dunn 
& Crutcher, Los Angeles, California.

ITEM 15.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
 
    The amended Articles of the Registrant provide: (i) the liability of the
directors of the Company for monetary damages shall be eliminated to the fullest
extent permissible under California law and (ii) the Company is authorized to
provide indemnification of its agents (as such term is defined in Section 317 of
the California General Corporation Law), whether by bylaw, agreement, vote of
the shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, in excess of the
indemnification expressly permitted by Section 317 of the California General
Corporation Law for breach of duty to this corporation and its shareholders,
subject only to the applicable limits upon such indemnification set forth in
Section 204(a)(11) of the California General Corporation Law.
 
    As permitted by Section 317 of the General Corporation Law of California,
the Bylaws of the Registrant provide: (i) the Registrant is required to
indemnify certain agents, including, but not limited to officers, directors,
employees, other agents, and persons serving in such capacities at the request
of the Company (including, for example, subsidiaries of the Registrant)
(collectively, the "Agents"), in certain proceedings to the extent that the
Agents are successful on the merits for actual and reasonable expenses and may
indemnify the Agents in these proceedings upon authorization, to the fullest
extent permitted by California law, including those circumstances in which
indemnification would otherwise be discretionary; (ii) the Registrant may
advance expenses to an Agent in connection with defending a proceeding; and
(iii) the Registrant may maintain Agents' liability insurance. These
indemnification provisions may be sufficiently broad to permit indemnification
of the Registrant's officers and directors for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
 
ITEM 16.  EXHIBITS
 
    The Exhibit Index is attached hereto on page II-4.

<PAGE>

ITEM 17.  UNDERTAKINGS
 
    The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered thereby and the offerings of such securities
at the time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

    Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matters has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
 
    The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
 
    (1)  To file, during any period in which offers or distributions are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement;
 
         (i)  To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
     Securities Act of 1933;


        (ii)  To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the
    effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent
    post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate,
    represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the
    Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
    decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of
    securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any
    deviation from the low or high and of the estimated maximum offering range
    may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission
    pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and
    price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate
    offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in
    the effective registration statement;


        (iii)  To include any material information with respect to the plan of
    distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any
    material change to such information in the Registration Statement;
 
provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to
Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated
by reference in the Registration Statement.
 
    (2)  That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
 
    (3)  To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any
of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.
