                OPPENHEIMER INSURED MUNICIPAL FUND
              Supplement  dated July 30,  1998 to the  Statement  of  Additional
    Information dated January 26, 1998



     This Supplement  dated July 30, 1998 to the Statement of Information  dated
January 26, 1998 changes the Statement of Additional Information as follows.

     1. The last paragraph within the section titled "Private Activity Municipal
Series" on page five is deleted and replaced with the following:

     The  Federal  alternative  minimum  tax is  designed  to  ensure  that  all
taxpayers pay some tax, even if their regular tax is zero.  This is accomplished
in part by including in taxable income certain tax preference  items in arriving
at  alternative  minimum  taxable  income.  The  Tax  Reform  Act,  which  makes
tax-exempt  interest from certain  private  activity bonds a tax preference item
for purposes of the  alternative  minimum tax on  individuals  and  corporations
specifically  states  that  any  exempt-interest  dividend  paid by a  regulated
investment  company will be treated as interest on a specific  private  activity
bond to the  extent of its  proportionate  share of the  interest  on such bonds
received by the  regulated  investment  company.  The Treasury is  authorized to
issue  regulations  implementing  the  provision.  The Fund  may hold  Municipal
Securities  the  interest  on  which  (and  thus a  proportionate  share  of the
exempt-interest  dividends  paid by the Fund)  will be  subject  to the  Federal
alternative minimum tax on individuals and corporations.
