NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The  consolidated  financial  statements  included  herein  do not  contain  all
information and footnote  disclosures  normally included in financial statements
prepared in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles.  For
further  information,  such as the significant  accounting  policies followed by
Integrated  Health  Services,  Inc.  ("IHS"  or  the  "Company"),  refer  to the
consolidated   financial  statements  and  footnotes  thereto  included  in  the
Company's  Annual  Report on Form 10-K for the year ended  December 31, 1998. In
the opinion of management,  the consolidated  financial  statements  include all
necessary adjustments  (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) for a fair
presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the interim
periods  presented.  The results of operations for the interim periods presented
are not necessarily  indicative of the results that may be expected for the full
year.

NOTE 2: EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted  average
number of common shares  outstanding for the applicable  period.  Diluted EPS is
calculated  after  adjusting the numerator and the  denominator of the basic EPS
calculation for the effect of all potential  dilutive common shares  outstanding
during the period.  Information  related to the  calculation of net earnings per
share of common stock is summarized as follows:

                 deleverage the Company without adversely affecting earnings. As
                 part of its delveraging  strategy, in each of January and April
                 1998,  (but  effective  March 31, 1998 in the case of the April
                 1998 sale) the Company sold five long-term  care  facilities to
                 Omega  Healthcare  Investors,  Inc. for $44.5 million and $50.5
                 million,  respectively,  which  facilities  were leased back by
                 Lyric Health Care LLC ("Lyric"),  a newly formed  subsidiary of
                 IHS, at an annual rent of  approximately  $4.5 million and $4.9
                 million,  respectively.  IHS also entered into  management  and
                 franchise  agreements with Lyric.  The management and franchise
                 agreements' initial terms are 13 years with two renewal options
                 of 13  years  each.  The  base  management  fee is 3% of  gross
                 revenues,  subject to increase if gross revenues  exceed $350.0
                 million.  In addition,  the agreement provides for an incentive
                 management fee equal to 70% of annual net cash flow (as defined
                 in the  management  agreement).  The  duties of IHS as  manager
                 include the  following:  accounting,  legal,  human  resources,
                 operations,  materials and facilities management and regulatory
                 compliance.  The annual  franchise fee is 1% of gross revenues,
                 which grants Lyric the  authority  to use the  Company's  trade
                 names and proprietary materials. In a related transaction,  TFN
                 Healthcare Investors,  Inc. ("TFN") purchased a 50% interest in
                 Lyric  for $1.0  million,  an  amount  equal  to the  Company's
                 initial  investment  in Lyric  and IHS'  interest  in Lyric was
                 reduced to 50%. Lyric will dissolve on December 31, 2047 unless
                 extended for an additional  12 months.  The  transactions  with
                 Lyric were approved by the  disinterested  members of the Board
                 of  Directors.  The  Company  believes  that  the  terms of the
                 arrangement  with Lyric are more  advantageous  to the  Company
                 than could have been  obtained  from an unrelated  third party.
                 The Company believes that the long-term growth of Lyric through
                 facility  acquisitions  from  third  parties  will allow IHS to
                 increase management fee revenues.

                 On  February  1,  1998  Lyric  also  entered  into a  five-year
                 employment  agreement with Timothy F. Nicholson,  the principal
                 stockholder  of TFN and a director of the Company.  Pursuant to
                 Lyric's  operating  agreement,  Mr.  Nicholson  will  serve  as
                 Managing  Director  of  Lyric  and  will  have  the  day-to-day
                 authority  for the  management  and operation of Lyric and will
                 initiate  policy  proposals for business  plans,  acquisitions,
                 employment policy,  approval of budgets,  adoption of insurance
                 programs,  additional  service offerings,  financing  strategy,
                 ancillary service usage,  change in material terms of any lease
                 and   adoption/amendment   of  employee  health,   benefit  and
                 compensation   plans.   As  a  result  of  the   aforementioned
                 transactions,  IHS accounts for its  investment  in Lyric using
                 the equity  method of accounting  since IHS no longer  controls
                 Lyric.

                 As part of its deleveraging  strategy,  the Company and various
                 wholly   owned   subsidiaries   of  the  Company   (the  "Lyric
                 Subsidiaries")  sold 32, effective  January 1, 1999,  long-term
                 care  facilities to Monarch  Properties  LP ("Monarch  LP") for
                 approximately  $135.0 million plus contingent earn-out payments
                 of up to a maximum of $67.6 million. Net proceeds from the sale
                 were  approximately  $114.3  million.  The contingent  earn-out
                 payments will be paid to the Company by Monarch LP upon a sale,
                 transfer or refinancing of any or all of the facilities or upon
                 a sale,  consolidation or merger of Monarch LP, with the amount
                 of  the  earn-out  payments  determined  in  accordance  with a
                 formula  described in the Facilities  Purchase  Agreement among
                 the Company, the Lyric Subsidiaries and Monarch

                 LP. After the sale of the facilities to Monarch LP, the Company
                 transferred  the  stock of each of the  Lyric  Subsidiaries  to
                 Lyric. Monarch LP then leased all of the facilities back to the
                 Lyric  Subsidiaries  under  the  long-term  master  lease.  The
                 Company is managing these  facilities for Lyric.  Dr. Robert N.
                 Elkins,  Chairman  of the Board,  Chief  Executive  Officer and
                 President of the Company,  beneficially  owns 30% of Monarch LP
                 and is the  Chairman  of  the  Board  of  Managers  of  Monarch
                 Properties,  LLP,  the parent  company of Monarch LP. After the
                 sale of the  facilities to Monarch LP, the Company  transferred
                 the stock of each of the Lyric  Subsidiaries  under a long-term
                 master lease.  In March 1999, the Company sold effective  April
                 1,  1999,  three  additional  facilities  to Monarch LP for $33
                 million, which purchase price was paid by a 10% promissory note
                 due March 2000.  Monarch LP then  leased  these  facilities  to
                 subsidiaries of Lyric. The Company is managing these facilities
                 for  Lyric  pursuant  to the  above-described  agreements.  The
                 transactions  with  Monarch LP and Lyric were  approved  by the
                 disinterested  members of the Board of  Directors.  The Company
                 believes that the terms of the arrangements with Monarch LP are
                 as  advantageous  to  the Company as could be obtained from  an
                 unrelated  third  party.  The  Company  recorded  an immaterial
                 gain on this transaction.

 NOTE 5:         CREDIT FACILITY AMENDMENT

                 In March 1999, the Company amended its Credit  Facility,  which
                 amendments   loosened  the  financial   convenants,   increased
                 interest   rates  and   accelerated   the   reduction   in  the
                 availability under the Credit Facility. As amended:

                    o    The Term Facility bears interest at a rate equal to, at
                         the option of IHS, either (i) in the case of Eurodollar
                         loans,  the sum of (x) between  two and three  quarters
                         percent and three and one quarter percent (depending on
                         the ratio of the Company's debt) (as defined in the New
                         Credit  Facility) to earnings before  interest,  taxes,
                         depreciation,  amortization  and rent pro forma for any
                         acquisitions  or  divestitures  during the  measurement
                         period (the "Debt/EBITDAR Ratio")) and (y) the interest
                         rate in the  London  interbank  market  for loans in an
                         amount  substantially  equal to the amount of borrowing
                         and for the period of borrowing selected by IHS or (ii)
                         the sum of (a) the higher of (1) Citibank,  N.A.'s base
                         rate or (2)  one  percent  plus  the  latest  overnight
                         federal funds rate plus (b) a margin of between one and
                         one half  percent  and two  percent  (depending  on the
                         Debt/EBITDAR Ratio).

                    o    The  Additional  Term Facility bears interest at a rate
                         equal to, at the option of IHS,  either (i) in the case
                         of  Eurodollar  loans,  the  sum of (x)  between  three
                         percent and three and one half  percent  (depending  on
                         the  Debt/EBITDAR  Ratio) and (y) the interest  rate in
                         the  London  interbank  market  for  loans in an amount
                         substantially  equal to the amount of borrowing and for
                         the period of borrowing selected by IHS or (ii) the sum
                         of (a) the higher of (1) Citibank,  N.A.'s base rate or
                         (2) one percent plus the latest overnight federal funds
                         rate plus (b) a margin of

                                  Page 10 of 24

                         between one and three quarters  percent and two and one
                         quarter percent (depending on the Debt/EBITDAR  Ratio).
                         The Term Facility and the Additional  Term Facility can
                         be  prepaid  at any time in  whole  or in part  without
                         penalty.

                    o    The Revolving  Facility will reduce to  $800,000,000 on
                         January  1,  2001,  $600,000,000  on  January  1, 2002,
                         $500,000,000 on September 30, 2002 and  $400,000,000 on
                         January 1, 2003, with a final maturity on September 15,
                         2003;  however,   the  $100,000,000  letter  of  credit
                         subfacility and $10,000,000 swing line subfacility will
                         remain at $100,000,000 and  $10,000,000,  respectively,
                         until final  maturity.  The Revolving  Credit  Facility
                         bears  interest  at a rate  equal to, at the  option of
                         IHS,  either (i) in the case of Eurodollar  loans,  the
                         sum of (x)  between  two  percent  and  two  and  three
                         quarters percent (depending on the Debt/EBITDAR  Ratio)
                         and  (y) the  interest  rate  in the  London  interbank
                         market  for loans in an amount  substantially  equal to
                         the amount of borrowing and for the period of borrowing
                         selected  by IHS or (ii) the sum of (a) the  higher  of
                         (1) Citibank,  N.A.'s base rate or (2) one percent plus
                         the  latest  overnight  federal  funds  rate plus (b) a
                         margin of between three quarters of one percent and one
                         and one-half  percent  (depending  on the  Debt/EBITDAR
                         Ratio).

                    o    The Credit  Facility  prohibits IHS from  purchasing or
                         redeeming IHS stock.

 NOTE 6:         SEGMENT REPORTING

                 In June 1997, the Financial  Accounting  Standards Board issued
                 Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards 131,  Disclosures
                 about Segments of an Enterprise and Related  Information.  SFAS
                 No.  131  establishes  standards  for the way  public  business
                 enterprises  report  information  about  operating  segments in
                 annual and interm financial  statements issued to shareholders.
                 It also  establishes  standards for related  disclosures  about
                 products and services, geographic areas and major customers.

                 After giving  effect to the  discontinuance  of its home health
                 nursing  segment,  IHS has four  primary  reportable  segments:
                 inpatient services, home  respiratory/infusion/DME,  diagnostic
                 services and lithotripsy services.  Inpatient services include:
                 (a) inpatient  facilities  which provide basic medical services
                 primarily on an inpatient basis at skilled nursing  facilities,
                 as well as hospice services, (b) contract services that provide
                 specialty   medical   services   (e.g.,    rehabilitation   and
                 respiratory  services),  primarily  on an  inpatient  basis  at
                 skilled  nursing  facilities,   (c)  contracted  services  that
                 provide  specialty  medical  services  under  contract to other
                 healthcare  providers,  and (d)  management of skilled  nursing


                                  Page 11 of 24
<PAGE>


                 facilities      owned      by     third      parties.      Home
                 respiratory/infusion/DME   provides  respiratory  and  infusion
                 therapy,  as well as the sale  and/or  rental  of home  medical
                 equipment.   Diagnostic   services  provide  mobile  x-ray  and
                 electrocardiogram  services  on an  inpatient  basis at skilled
                 nursing  facilities.  Lithotripsy  services  is a  non-invasive
                 technique that uses shock waves to disintegrate  kidney stones,
                 primarily on an outpatient basis. Certain services with similar
                 economic  characteristics have been aggregated pursuant to SFAS
                 No. 131. No other  individual  business segment exceeds the 10%
                 quantitative thresholds of SFAS No. 131.

                 IHS  management  evaluates  the  performance  of its  operating
                 segments  on the  basis of  earnings  before  interest,  income
                 taxes, depreciation and amortization and non-recurring charges.

                 for the three  months  ended  March  31,  1999 and 38% and 20%,
                 respectively,  for the three months March 31, 1998. The Company
                 does not evaluate its operations on a geographic basis.

 NOTE 7:         SALE OF OUTPATIENT CLINICS

                 In February 1998,  the Company sold its  outpatient  clinics to
                 Continucare  Rehabilitation  Services,  Inc. for $10.0 million.
                 During the fourth  quarter of 1997,  the Company wrote down its
                 basis  in  its  outpatient  clinics  to net  realizable  value.
                 Accordingly,  no gain or loss was  recognized by the Company on
                 such sale.

 NOTE 8:         DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

                 In October 1998, the Company  adopted a plan to discontinue its
                 home health nursing business segment. Accordingly, during 1998,
                 the operating  results of the home health nursing  segment have
                 been segregated  from  continuing  operations and reported as a
                 separate line item on the condensed statement of operations.

                 The loss  from  this  discontinued  operation  of $1.8  million
                 represents  the operating loss for the three month period ended
                 March 31,  1998.  The  operating  loss  includes the effects of
                 interest   expense  incurred  in  connection  with  acquisition
                 financing.  During the three months  ended March 31, 1999,  the
                 Company   sold  a  portion  of  this   business   segment   for
                 approximately  $12.5  million.  The Company sold the  remaining
                 portion during the second quarter of 1999.

 NOTE 9:         SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

                 In May 1999, the Company  acquired Amber  Enterprises,  Inc., a
                 respiratory  company  in Iowa.  The  total  purchase  price was
                 approximately $941,000.

                 The Company has reached  definitive  agreements to purchase six
                 respiratory  companies for approximately $28.4 million, as well
                 as definitive  agreements to enter into two separate  leases of
                 28 skilled nursing  facilities.  There can be no assurance that
                 any of these pending  acquisitions  will be  consummated on the
                 proposed terms, different terms, or at all.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                             OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                                       AND
                              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                 Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q concerning the
Company's   business  outlook  or  future  economic   performance;   anticipated
profitability, revenues, expenses or other financial items; and business segment
growth,  together  with other  statements  that are not  historical  facts,  are
"forward-looking  statements"  as that term is defined under Federal  Securities
Laws.  Forward-looking  statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other
factors which could cause actual results to differ  materially from those stated
in such statements.  Such risks,  uncertainties and factors include, but are not
limited to, the Company's  substantial  indebtedness,  growth strategy,  capital
requirements and recent acquisitions as well as the Company's ability to operate
profitably  under the newly  implemented  Medicare  Prospective  Payment  System
("PPS"), competition, government regulation, general economic conditions and the
other risks  detailed in the Company's  filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, including the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 1998.

                 The Company  continues  to evaluate  the impact of the Balanced
Budget Act ("BBA") upon future  operating  results.  While the BBA was passed in
August  1997,  specifics  relating  to each  business  line will  continue to be
released  until the year 2000. The  assumptions  used by the Company to evaluate
the BBA are based upon the most accurate  information  available at each quarter
end. At present the Company  believes it is reacting to all of the known changes
created  by the BBA,  however,  it  cannot  predict  the  impact  of  unforeseen
reductions in anticipated rates issued by the government.

                 After giving  effect to the  discontinuance  of its home health
nursing segment, IHS has four primary reportable  segments:  inpatient services,
home  respiratory/infusion/DME,  diagnostic  services and lithotripsy  services.
Inpatient services include: (a) inpatient facilities which provide basic medical
services primarily on an inpatient basis at skilled nursing facilities,  as well
as hospice  services,  (b)  


                                  Page 14 of 24

<PAGE>

contract services that provide specialty medical services (e.g.,  rehabilitation
and  respiratory  services),  primarily on an inpatient basis at skilled nursing
facilities,  (c) contracted  services that provide  specialty  medical  services
under  contract to other  healthcare  providers,  and (d)  management of skilled
nursing  facilities  owned  by  third  parties.  Home   respiratory/infusion/DME
provides  respiratory and infusion therapy, as well as the sale and/or rental of
home  medical   equipment.   Diagnostic   services   provide  mobile  x-ray  and
electrocardiogram  services on an inpatient basis at skilled nursing facilities.
Lithotripsy  services  is a  non-invasive  technique  that uses  shock  waves to
disintegrate kidney stones,  primarily on an outpatient basis.  Certain services
with similar economic  characteristics have been aggregated pursuant to SFAS No.
131.  No  other  individual   business  segment  exceeds  the  10%  quantitative
thresholds of SFAS No. 131.

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999
COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998

                 Net  revenues  for  the  three  months  ended  March  31,  1999
decreased  $141.45  million,  or 18.6%,  to $620.24  million from the comparable
period in 1998. Such decrease was attributable to (i) a $190.33 million decrease
from (a) the sale,  subsequent to March 31, 1998,  of 37 facilities  ("the Lyric
facilities") to real estate investment  trusts,  which leased such facilities to
Lyric Health Care LLC,  which is 50% owned by IHS and which  facilities  are now
managed by IHS, (b) a decrease in the  Company's  rates for  inpatient  services
provided as a result of PPS, and (c) a decrease in demand for therapy services


                                 Page 15 of 24

<PAGE>


in the  Company's  contract  rehabilitation  division as a result of PPS,  (ii)a
decrease  of $4.16  million  from  home  respiratory/infusion/DME  companies  in
operations  in both periods,  (iii) a decrease of $5.06 million from  diagnostic
services in operations in both periods,  partially offset by (iv) an increase of
$820,000 from lithotripsy services in operations in both periods.  This decrease
was partially offset by revenue from acquisitions  subsequent to March 31, 1998,
including (i) $41.79 million from inpatient  services,  (ii) $13.64 million from
home   respiratory/infusion/DME,   and  (iii)  $1.86  million  from  lithotripsy
services.  Customers  of the  Company's  contract  rehabilitation  division  are
admitting fewer Medicare patients and are reducing utilization of rehabilitation
services to a far greater degree than the Company had expected.

                 Operating,  general and administrative expense (including rent)
decreased  $91.11  million,  or 15.2%,  in the three months ended March 31, 1999
compared  to  the  three  months  ended  March  31,  1998.   Such  decrease  was
attributable  to (i) a $131.10  million  decrease from (a) the sale of the Lyric
facilities, (b) a decrease in the Company's inpatient services provided, and (c)
a  decrease  in  therapy  services  in  the  Company's  contract  rehabilitation
division,(ii)  a  $7.18  million  decrease  from  home  respiratory/infusion/DME
companies in  operations in both  periods,  (iii) a $5.47 million  decrease from
diagnostic  services in operations in both periods,  partially offset by (iv) an
increase of $198,000  from  lithotripsy  services in operations in both periods.
This  net  decrease  was   partially   offset  by  increases  in  expenses  from
acquisitions  subsequent to March 31, 1998,  including  (i) $41.29  million from
inpatient  services,  (ii)  $10.26  million  from home  respiratory/infusion/DME
services,  and (iii)  $885,000  from  lithotripsy  services.  In response to the
reduced demand for therapy  services  provided to third parties by the Company's
contract  rehabilitation  division,  the Company began in the fourth  quarter of
1998 to reduce  staff and changed the method of  compensation  to its  remaining
therapists.

                 Depreciation and  amortization  increased to $46.37 million for
the three months  ended March 31,  1999,  a 30.3%  increase as compared to $35.6
million in 1998. Of the $10.77 million  increase,  $2.27 million,  or 


                                 Page 16 of 24

<PAGE>

21.1%, was attributable to depreciation and amortization of businesses  acquired
subsequent  to March 31,  1998.  The  remaining  increase was  primarily  due to
depreciation  and  amortization   related  to  increased   routine  and  capital
expenditures  at  existing  facilities  and  depreciation  and  amortization  of
inpatient  services and home  respiratory  companies  acquired  during the first
quarter of 1998 partially offset by the sale of the Lyric facilities.

                 Net interest expense increased $9.83 million,  or 16.2%, during
the three months ended March 31, 1999.  The increase was primarily the result of
increased  borrowings under the revolving credit facility and other debt assumed
related to acquisitions subsequent to March 31, 1998.

                 Earnings  (loss)  from  continuing  operations  decreased  from
earnings of $39.35 million in the three months ended March 31, 1998 to a loss of
$6.59  million  for the three  months  ended  March 31,  1999.  The  decrease is
primarily  due to the  decrease in therapy  services in the  Company's  contract
rehabilitation division.

                 The  Company's  effective  tax  rate  in 1998  under  generally
accepted  accounting  principles was  approximately  41% which included  certain
amortization  costs  that  are not  deductible  for  income  tax  purposes.  The
Company's  anticipated  effective tax rate in 1999 exceeds  100%.  Since pre-tax
earnings (loss) in 1999 are excepted to be  substantially  less in 1999 compared
to 1998 pre-tax earnings, the non-deductibility of these amortization costs will
have a much greater  impact on the effective tax rate under  generally  accepted
accounting  principles.  As pre-tax  earnings  grow,  the  non-deductibility  of
certain  amortization  costs will have a diminishing impact on the effective tax
rate.

                 In October  1998,  the Company's  Board of Directors  adopted a
plan to discontinue operations of the home health nursing segment.  Accordingly,
during  1998,  the  operating  results  of the home  nursing  segment  have been
segregated  from  continuing  operations and reported as a separate line item on
the statement of  operations.  The operating  loss (net of tax) during the three
months ended March 31, 1998 was $1.76 million.

                 Net loss and loss per  share for 1999 were  $6.59  million  and
$0.13 per share, respectively, compared to net earnings and diluted earnings per
share for 1998 of $37.58  million and $0.73 per share.  Weighted  average shares
decreased from  54,461,000  (diluted) in 1998 to 52,105,000 in 1999. In 1999, no
exercise of options and warrants nor conversion of subordinated  debt is assumed
since their effect is  antidilutive.  Subsequent to March 31, 1998,  the Company
issued an aggregate of 7,553,406  shares of Common  Stock,  including  3,573,446
shares upon conversion of its 6% Convertible Subordinated Debentures,  2,062,928
shares for acquisitions and 1,519,145 shares upon exercise of options.

During this  period,  the  Company  repurchased  4,667,500  shares of its Common
Stock and reissued 1,006,524 of such shares.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

                 At March 31,  1999,  the Company had working  capital of $410.2
million,  as compared with $341.2  million at December 31, 1998. The increase in
working  capital was primarily due to an increase in cash and cash  equivalents,
temporary  investments  and other  current  assets  and a decrease  in  accounts
payable and accrued expenses  partially offset by a decrease in patient accounts
and third party payor  settlements  receivable.  There were no material  capital
commitments for capital  expenditures as of March 31, 1999. Net patient accounts
and third-party payor settlements  receivable  decreased $34.0 million to $615.1
million at March 31, 1999,  as compared to $649.1  million at December 31, 1998.
The decrease was primarily attributable to improved cash collections and reduced
revenue  resulting  from lower rates for the  Company's  inpatient  services and
decreased  demand for contract rehab services  provided to third parties.  Gross
patient  accounts  receivable were $726.3 million at March 31, 1999, as compared
with $735.2  million at December 31, 1998.  Net  third-party  payor  settlements
receivable from federal and state governments (i.e.,  Medicare and Medicaid cost
reports) was $54.5  million at March 31, 1999,  as compared to $79.2  million at
December 31, 1998.

                 Net cash provided by operating  activities for the three months
ended March 31,  1999,  was $17.6  million as  compared to $1.6  million for the
comparable  period in 1998.  Cash provided by operating  activities in the first
quarter of 1999 increased  compared to the  comparable  period in 1998 primarily
because of a decrease in patient  accounts  and third  party  payor  settlements
receivable, net, partially offset by a net loss in 1999 compared to net earnings
in 1998 and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

                 Net cash provided by financing activities was $13.7 million for
the  three  month  period  in 1999 as  compared  to $91.1  million  provided  by
financing  activities  for the comparable  period in 1998. In both periods,  the
Company  received net proceeds from long-term  borrowings and made repayments on
certain  debt.  During  the three  months  ended  March 31,  1999,  the  Company
repurchased 3.6 million shares of its stock for 


                                 Page 18 of 24

<PAGE>



approximately $24.0 million.

                 Net cash provided by investing activities was $20.2 million for
the three month period ended March 31, 1999 as compared to $93.7 million used by
investing  activities for the three month period ended March 31, 1998. Cash used
for the acquisition of facilities and ancillary  company  acquisitions was $25.2
million  in 1999 as  compared  to $62.4  million  for  1998.  Cash  used for the
purchase of property,  plant and  equipment  was $43.0 million in 1999 and $66.5
million in 1998.  In the first  quarter of 1999,  the  Company  received  $114.3
million  related to the sale of 32 long-term care  facilities to Monarch LP (See
Note 4). Also during the first  quarter of 1999,  the Company  sold a portion of
its discontinued  home nursing segment for approximately  $12.5 million.  In the
first quarter of 1998, the Company received $89.9 million related to the sale of
ten long-term care facilities to Omega Healthcare Investors,  Inc. (See Note 4).
During the first quarter of 1998,  the Company sold its  outpatient  clinics for
approximately  $10.0 million (See Note 7). The net proceeds from such sales were
used to repay debt  outstanding  under the revolving  credit  facility and other
corporate purposes, including acquisitions.

                 As a  result  of  the  BBA's  implementation  of a  prospective
 payment system for home nursing beginning with cost report periods beginning on
 or after October 1, 1999,  contingent payments in respect of the acquisition of
 First American Health Care of Georgia,  Inc. in October 1996,  aggregating $155
 million, became payable over five years beginning in 2000. The present value of
 such  payments  at March 31,  1999 is $124.4  million  and is  recorded  on the
 balance sheet under the caption other long-term liabilities.

                 IHS' contingent  liabilities (other than liabilities in respect
of litigation) aggregated approximately $131.1 million as of March 31, 1999. IHS
is required, upon certain defaults under the lease, to purchase its Orange Hills
facility  at a  purchase  price  equal to the  greater  of $7.1  million  or the
facility's fair market value. IHS has established  several  irrevocable  standby
letters of credit with the Bank of Nova Scotia  totaling  $31.6 million at March
31, 1999 to secure certain of the Company's workers'  compensation  obligations,
health benefits and



                                 Page 19 of 24

<PAGE>



other  obligations.  In addition,  IHS has several surety bonds in the amount of
$69.8 million to secure certain of the Company's health benefits,  patient trust
funds and other  obligations.  In  addition,  with  respect to certain  acquired
businesses IHS is obligated to make certain  contingent  payments if earnings of
the  acquired  business  increase  or earnings  targets are met.  The Company is
obligated to purchase the remaining interests in its lithotripsy partnerships at
a defined price in the event  legislation is passed or regulations  adopted that
would prevent the physician  partners from owning an interest in the partnership
and using the  partnership's  lithotripsy  equipment for the treatment of his or
her  patients.   In  addition,   IHS  has  obligations  under  operating  leases
aggregating approximately $853.5 million at March 31, 1999.

                 The  Company   anticipates   that  cash  from   operations  and
borrowings  under  revolving  credit  facilities  will be  adequate to cover its
scheduled debt payments and future anticipated capital expenditure  requirements
throughout 1999.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

                 The  Company  has  conducted  a  comprehensive  review  of  its
computer  systems to identify  the systems  that are affected by the "Year 2000"
issue and has  substantially  completed an  implementation  plan to resolve this
issue.  This issue affects  computer  systems that have date sensitive  programs
that may not  properly  recognize  the year 2000.  Systems  that do not properly
recognize such  information  could generate  erroneous data or cause a system to
fail,  resulting in business  interruption.  As part of the Company's  Year 2000
Project,  the Company has completed its initial  evaluation of current  computer
systems,  software and embedded  technologies.  IHS began  implementation of its
Year 2000 plan in January 1997 and all business segments have been examined.  An
inventory of all equipment and systems supported by IHS' Information  Technology
department has been compiled and  compliance  has been  verified.  The Year 2000
Project is  approximately  70% complete and it is  anticipated  that the project
will be substantially implemented by June 1999. Periodic meetings are being held
with the Board of  Directors  and senior  management  to ensure that the project
stays on schedule.



                                 Page 20 of 24

<PAGE>



                 Through March 31, 1999,  expenditures  related to the Year 2000
issue totaled  approximately $7.0 million.  The Company currently estimates that
an  additional  $4.0 million  will be spent to complete  the  project,  although
additional  amounts may be required.  The costs will be funded through cash from
operations and borrowings under the Revolving Facility and are being expensed as
incurred.

                 One of the  biggest  risks to the  Company  is that  regulatory
payors (i.e.,  Medicare and  Medicaid),  suppliers and other entities with which
the Company has a material  relationship  will not be compliant by Year 2000 and
therefore unable to pay claims. The Company has initiated a program to determine
whether the computer  programs of its  significant  payors and suppliers will be
upgraded in a timely manner. This program consists of obtaining  verification of
compliance,   arranging  contingency  pay  out  agreements,  testing  electronic
transactions and necessary business interruption insurance.  The Company has not
completed this review;  however initial  responses  indicate that no significant
issues are expected to arise.

                 The  failure  to  correct a material  Year 2000  problem  could
result  in  an  interruption  in,  or a  failure  of,  certain  normal  business
activities or operations.  The Company has not established a formal  contingency
plan to put into  effect in the event of a failure to  correct a  material  Year
2000 problem.  Due to the general uncertainty inherent in the Year 2000 problem,
resulting in part from the uncertainty of the Year 2000 readiness of third party
payors and suppliers, there can be no assurance that the Company's assessment is
correct  or that the  assessment  of  materiality  of any  failure  is  correct.
Completion  of the Year 2000  Project is  expected to  significantly  reduce the
Company's level of uncertainty over the Year 2000 issue and the Company believes
that  upon   completion  of  the  Project,   the   possibility   of  significant
interruptions of normal operations should be minimal.

PART II:                 OTHER INFORMATION

Item 2.          -       Changes in Securities

                         On  January  6, 1999 and March 26,  1999,  the  Company

                         Common   Stock   to  the   stockholders   of   Medicare
                         Convalescent  Aids of  Pinellas,  Inc.  d/b/a  Medaids,

                         issued  pursuant  to  terms in the  purchase  agreement
                         which require the Company to recalculate  the number of
                         shares  deliverable  based upon the average closing New
                         York  Stock  Exchange  price for IHS  shares for the 20
                         trading  day  period  immediately  preceding  the first
                         anniversary of the Closing Date.

                         On January 13, 1999,  the Company  issued 69,585 shares

                         because  the average  price of 68,259  shares of Common
                         Stock issued to the Hialeah shareholders at the time of
                         closing of the acquisition (the "Original  Shares") was

                         the Securities Act. The number of additional  shares is
                         equal  to the  difference  between  (i) the  number  of
                         shares determined by dividing the merger  consideration
                         of $2.5  million by the  average  closing  price of the
                         Common  Stock on the New York Stock  Exchange  ("NYSE")
                         for the 30 trading days ending on the date  immediately
                         preceding  the  date  of  the  registration   statement
                         covering the cost of the  Original  Shares was declared
                         effective  and (ii) the number of shares  determined by
                         dividing  the merger  consideration  of $2.5 million by
                         the average  closing  price of the Common  Stock on the
                         NYSE  for  the  30  trading   day  period   immediately
                         preceding  the date which was two trading days prior to
                         the closing date of the acquisition.

                         During the first  quarter of 1999,  the Company  issued
                         2,446  shares  of  Common  Stock  to   ex-employees  as
                         severance payments.

                         The  Common  Stock  issued  by  the  Company  in  these
                         transactions  was not  registered  under the Securities
                         Act of 1933, as amended,  in reliance  upon  exemptions

         its governing authority),  and do not contravene (i) its certificate or
         articles of incorporation (or, in the case of a partnership,  governing
         agreements)  or  (ii)  any  law  or any  indenture,  lease  or  written
         agreement  binding on or  affecting  it and do not result in or require
         the  creation  of any  Lien  (other  than  pursuant  to the  Collateral
         Documents) upon any of its property or assets.

         the due execution,  delivery and  performance by any Loan Party of this
         Amendment,  the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, or the Consent, as
         applicable.

                  (e) This Amendment and the Consent have been duly executed and
         delivered by the  respective  Loan Party.  This  Amendment,  the Credit
         Agreement,  as amended  hereby,  and the Consent  are legal,  valid and
         binding  obligations of the respective Loan Party,  enforceable against
         the respective  Loan Party in accordance with their  respective  terms,

                  (f)  There is no  pending  or  overtly  threatened  action  or
         proceeding  affecting  any Loan Party  before  any court,  governmental
         agency or arbitrator which would, if adversely determined,  result in a
         Material  Adverse  Change or which  relates to or could  reasonably  be
         expected to affect the  legality,  validity or  enforceability  of this
         Amendment,  the Credit Agreement,  as amended hereby, or the Consent or
         the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated hereby.

                  (g) The execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment,
         the Consent and the Credit  Agreement,  as amended  hereby,  do not and
         will not (i) conflict with,  result in a breach of, or constitute (with
         or without  notice or the lapse of time or both) a default  under,  any
         instrument, lease, indenture, agreement or other contractual obligation
         issued  by any  Loan  Party  or  enforceable  against  it or any of its
         property or assets,  except under immaterial agreements for supplies or
         services  which are readily  replaceable  without any adverse effect on
         such Loan Party or its  business or (ii)  require  any  approval of its
         stockholders.

                  SECTION 5. Reference to and Effect on the Credit Agreement and
the Loan Documents.

         reference  in the Credit  Agreement to "this  Agreement",  "hereunder",
         "hereof" or words of like import referring to the Credit Agreement, and
         each  reference  in the Notes and each of the other Loan  Documents  to
         "the Credit Agreement", "thereunder", "thereof" or words of like


<PAGE>


         import referring to the Credit Agreement, shall mean and be a reference
         to the Credit Agreement, as amended by this Amendment.

                  (b) The  Credit  Agreement,  as  specifically  amended by this
         Amendment,  is and shall continue to be in full force and effect and is
         hereby in all respects  ratified and  confirmed.  Without  limiting the
         generality of the foregoing,  the  Collateral  Documents and all of the
         Collateral  described  therein  do and shall  continue  to  secure  the
         payment  of  all  Obligations  of  the  Loan  Parties  under  the  Loan
         Documents, in each case as amended by this Amendment.

                  (c)  The  execution,   delivery  and   effectiveness  of  this
         Amendment shall not, except as expressly provided herein,  operate as a
         waiver of any right,  power or remedy of any Lender or the Agent  under
         the Credit  Agreement,  nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the
         Credit Agreement.

                  SECTION 6. Costs,  Expenses and Taxes.  The Borrower agrees to
pay on demand all reasonable  and documented  costs and expenses of the Agent in
connection  with  the  preparation,   execution,  delivery  and  administration,
modification  and  amendment of this  Amendment  and the other  instruments  and
documents  to  be  delivered  hereunder  (including,   without  limitation,  the
reasonable  and  documented  fees and  expenses  of  counsel  for the  Agent) in
accordance with the terms of Section 8.04 of the Credit Agreement.  In addition,
the Borrower  shall pay any and all stamp and other taxes  payable or determined
to be payable in connection  with the  execution and delivery of this  Amendment
and the other instruments and documents to be delivered hereunder, and agrees to
save the Agent and each Lender harmless from and against any and all liabilities
with  respect to or  resulting  from any delay in paying or omission to pay such
taxes.

                  SECTION 7.  Execution in  Counterparts.  This Amendment may be
executed  in any  number of  counterparts  and by  different  parties  hereto in
separate  counterparts,  each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an
original and all of which taken together  shall  constitute but one and the same
agreement.  Delivery of an  executed  counterpart  of a  signature  page to this
Amendment by  telecopier  shall be effective as delivery of a manually  executed
counterpart of this Amendment.

                  SECTION 8. Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by,
and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.
