                                    EXHIBIT A

                  INVESTMENT AND REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

         INVESTMENT AND REGISTRATION  RIGHTS AGREEMENT made as of the 5th day of
December 1997, by and between  CONTINUCARE  CORPORATION,  a Florida  corporation
(the "Company" or "Continucare"),  and STRATEGIC  INVESTMENT  PARTNERS,  LTD., a
Cayman Islands  corporation (the "Investor").  Capitalized terms used herein and
not otherwise defined shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in Section 6
hereof.


                                   WITNESSETH

         WHEREAS,  the Investor desires to purchase,  and Continucare desires to
sell,  the Common Stock in the amounts and on the terms and conditions set forth
herein.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the mutual covenants
and agreements hereinafter set forth, and other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and sufficiency whereof are hereby acknowledged,  the parties hereto
agree as follows:


SECTION 1 1.      PURCHASE OF STOCK

         1.1 Description of Securities. Continucare has authorized the issuance,
sale and  delivery  to the  Investor  on the  Closing  Date of an  aggregate  of
2,250,000 shares (the "Securities") of its authorized but unissued common stock,
par value $.0001 per share (the "Common Stock"), for an aggregate purchase price
of $11,250,000.

         1.2 Use of Proceeds.  The proceeds of the purchase price for the Common
Stock  shall  be  used  to  finance  the  working   capital   needs,   including
acquisitions, of Continucare.

         1.3 Closing.  The closing (the  "Closing")  of the sale and purchase of
the Securities  shall take place on the date hereof or such other date, time and
place as shall be mutually  agreed upon by  Continucare  and the  Investor  (the
"Closing Date").  At the Closing,  Continucare shall instruct its transfer agent
to deliver to the  Investor a share  certificate  for the  Securities  (with the
appropriate  restricted stock legend) against payment of the full purchase price
therefor by Investor to Continucare by wire transfer to an account designated by
Continucare.


SECTION 2 2.      REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND
                  COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY

         In order to induce  the  Investor  to enter  into this  Agreement,  the
Company  represents and warrants to the Investor the following as of the Closing
Date.

         2.1 Organization and Corporate Power. The Company is a corporation duly
organized  and  validly  existing  under  the  laws  of the  State  of  Florida.
Continucare  has all required  corporate power and authority to own its property
and to carry on its  businesses  as  presently  conducted.  The  Company has all
required corporate power and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement,
and to  carry  out the  transactions  contemplated  hereby,  including,  without
limitation, the issuance of the Securities.

         2.2 Authorization and Non-Contravention.  This Agreement is a valid and
binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance
with its terms,  except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy laws
and general  principles of equity.  The execution,  delivery and  performance of
this Agreement and the issuance of the Securities,  have been duly authorized by
all  necessary  corporate  action of the Company.  The  execution,  delivery and
performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the

<PAGE>


transactions  contemplated  hereby  will not (i)  violate or  conflict  with the
Company's  charter or bylaws,  (ii)  conflict with or constitute a breach of any
material  agreement to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries are a party,
except  where such breach  would not have a Material  Adverse  Effect,  or (iii)
violate any applicable law, rule, regulation, judgment, order, writ or decree to
which the Company is subject,  except for such  violations that would not have a
Material Adverse Effect.

         2.3  Capitalization.  As of the Closing,  and prior to giving effect to
the transactions contemplated hereby, the authorized and issued capital stock of
the Company is as set forth in Schedule 2.3 attached hereto.

         2.4  Reports  and  Financial   Statements.   The  historical  financial
statements included in the Incorporated Documents present fairly in all material

specified  were prepared in conformity  with GAAP applied on a consistent  basis
throughout the periods presented except as disclosed therein.  Since the date of
the most recent financial  statements  included in the  Incorporated  Documents,
there has been no Material Adverse Change.

         2.5 Board Appointment. Effective immediately subsequent to the Closing,
the Company  shall  increase the size of its Board to seven members and fill the
vacancy created by such increase by appointing  Robert Soros to the Board. It is
the intention of the Company (subject to applicable fiduciary  obligations) that
Robert  Soros,  or his  designee,  be a director  of the  Company as long as the
Investor hold 10% or more of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company.

                  (a) The execution of this  Agreement has been duly  authorized
         by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Investor, has been
         duly  executed and  delivered,  and  constitutes  a valid,  binding and
         enforceable  agreement of the Investor,  except as such  enforceability
         may be limited by bankruptcy laws and general principles of equity.

                  (b) The  Investor  is  acquiring  the  Securities  for its own
         account,  for  investment,  and not  with a view to any  "distribution"
         thereof within the meaning of the Securities  Act, and the Investor has
         no   present  or   presently   contemplated   agreement,   undertaking,
         arrangement,  obligation,  indebtedness or commitment providing for the
         distribution thereof.

                  (c) The Investor  understands that because the Securities have
         not been registered  under the Securities Act, it cannot dispose of any
         or all of the Securities  unless the relevant  shares are  subsequently
         registered   under  the   Securities   Act  or  exemptions   from  such
         registration  are  available.   The  Investor   understands  that  each
         certificate  representing the Securities will bear the following legend
         or one substantially similar thereto:

                  The securities  represented by this  certificate have not been
                  registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act"). These
                  securities  have been acquired for  investment  and not with a
                  view  to  distribution  or  resale,   and  may  not  be  sold,
                  mortgaged,  pledged,  hypothecated  or  otherwise  transferred
                  without  an   effective   registration   statement   for  such
                  securities under the Act or an opinion of counsel satisfactory
                  to the Company is  obtained  to the effect  that an  exemption
                  from such registration requirements is available.

                  (d) The Investor is sufficiently knowledgeable and experienced
         in the making of investments so as to be able to evaluate the risks and
         merits  of its  investment  in the  Company,  and is able  to bear  the
         economic risk of loss of its investment in the Company.

                  (e) The Investor has been advised that the Securities have not
         been and are not being registered under the Securities Act or under the
         "blue sky" laws of any jurisdiction and that the Company in issuing the
         Securities is relying upon, among other things, the representations and
         warranties of the Investor contained in this Section 4.

                  (f) The  Investor  acknowledges  receipt  of the  Incorporated
         Documents (and any other documents filed with the Commission previously
         requested by the Investor) and the Offering Memorandum.

                  (g) The Investor  has been  afforded  the  opportunity  to ask
         questions  of, and  receive  answers  from,  the Company and all of its
         executed   officers  and  directors   and  to  obtain  any   additional
         information,  to the extent that the Company possesses such information
         or could have  acquired  it,  necessary  to verify the  accuracy of the
         information  contained  in any  documents  delivered  to  the  Investor
         concerning the Company and has in general had access to all information
         the Investor deemed material to an investment  decision with respect to
         the acquisition of the Securities.

                  (h) The  Investor is an  "accredited  investor"  as defined in
         Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.
