                             HEALTHPLEX, INC. ANNOUNCES 
                                STOCK BUYBACK PROGRAM 


          Uniondale, New York, April 18, 1996 --- HEALTHPLEX, INC. (NASDAQ:
          HPLX) today announced that it intends, from time to time over the
          next 12 months, to buy up to 100,000 shares of Healthplex common
          stock on the open market through Rule 10b-18 purchases. 
          Healthplex's management believes that a stock repurchase program

          processing, printing and related services to certain dental
          health companies, and administrative services to certain dental
