ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
The accounting firm of Deloitte & Touche LLP ("Deloitte &
Touche") represented Continucare Corporation (the "Company") as its independent
accountants during fiscal year 1997 and was dismissed by the Company's Board of
Directors on May 6, 1998. During the Company's two most recent fiscal years and
subsequent interim periods, for which Deloitte & Touche was the Company's
independent auditors, there were no disagreements between the Company and
Deloitte & Touche on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if
not resolved to the satisfaction of Deloitte & Touche, would have caused it to
make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its
reports. Deloitte & Touche's reports on the financial statements of the Company
for the two most recent fiscal years, for which Deloitte & Touche was the
Company's independent auditors, did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer
of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope,
or accounting principles. The Company's Board of Directors has appointed Ernst &
Young LLP as the Company's independent accountants for fiscal year 1998.
