 The Board of Directors
 Cerner Corporation:
 
 
 We  have  audited the accompanying statements  of  net  assets
 available   for   participants  of  the   Cerner   Corporation
 Foundations Retirement Plan as of December 31, 1995  and  1994
 and  the related statements of changes in net assets available
 for  participants for the years then ended.   These  financial
 statements  are  the responsibility of the Plan's  management.
 Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
 statements based on our audits.
 
 We  conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted
 auditing standards.  Those standards require that we plan  and
 perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
 the  financial  statements are free of material  misstatement.
 An  audit  includes  examining,  on  a  test  basis,  evidence
 supporting  the  amounts  and  disclosures  in  the  financial
 statements.   An audit also includes assessing the  accounting
 principles  used and significant estimates made by management,
 as   well   as  evaluating  the  overall  financial  statement
 presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable
 basis for our opinion.
 
 In  our  opinion, the financial statements referred  to  above
 present  fairly,  in  all material respects,  the  net  assets
 available   for   participants  of  the   Cerner   Corporation
 Foundations Retirement Plan as of December 31, 1995  and  1994
 and  the changes in net assets available for participants  for
 the  years  then ended, in conformity with generally  accepted
 accounting principles.
 
 Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion  on
 the   basic  financial  statements  taken  as  a  whole.   The
 supplementary schedules of assets held for investment purposes
 and  reportable  transactions are presented  for  purposes  of
 additional analysis and are not a required part of  the  basic
 financial   statements   but  are  supplementary   information
 required  by  the Department of Labor's Rules and  Regulations
 for  Reporting  and  Disclosure under the Employee  Retirement
 Income  Security  Act of 1974.  The fund  information  in  the
 statements  of net assets available for participants  and  the
 statements of changes in net assets available for participants
 is  presented for purposes of additional analysis rather  than
 to  present  the  net  assets available for  participants  and
 changes in net assets available for participants of each fund.
 The  supplemental  schedules and fund  information  have  been
 subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits  of
 the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly
 stated  in  all  material respects in relation  to  the  basic
 financial statements taken as a whole.

                       CERNER CORPORATION
                   FOUNDATIONS RETIREMENT PLAN
                                
                  Notes to Financial Statements
                                
                   December 31, 1995 and 1994
                                
                                
 (1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
     
     General
     
     The  following  brief description of the Cerner  Corporation
        Foundations  Retirement Plan (the Plan) is  provided  for
        general  information purposes only.  Participants  should
        refer   to   the   Plan  Agreement  for   more   complete
        information.
     
     The  Plan  was  adopted by the Board of Directors of  Cerner
        Corporation   (the   Company   or   Employer)   effective
        November  1, 1987.  The Plan is administered by a  third-
        party  administrator.  All full-time  associates  of  the
        Company are eligible for participation in the Plan  after
        attaining age eighteen.
     
     Basis of Presentation
     
     The  accompanying financial statements have been prepared on
        the  accrual basis in conformity with generally  accepted
        accounting  principles and present the Plan's net  assets
        available  for  participants and  changes  in  those  net
        assets.
     
     Expenses
     
     All  costs  and expenses incurred in administering the  Plan
        are  paid  by the Company.  Expenses related to  issuance
        of  loans  to participants are charged to the participant
        obtaining the loan.
     
     Investments
     
     The  Plan's investments and earnings thereon are held  in  a
        bank  trust account.  The fair values of investments  are
        based  principally on quotations from national securities
        exchanges.
     
     Loans to Participants
     
     At the  discretion  of the Company, loans  may  be  made  to
        participants  in an amount up to 50% of the participant's
        self-directed  funds balance.  The loan  period  may  not
        exceed ten years and the interest rate is prime plus 1%.
     
     Use of Estimates
     
     The  Plan  utilizes  a number of estimates  and  assumptions
        relating  to the reporting of assets and liabilities  and
        the  disclosure  of contingent assets and liabilities  to
        prepare  these  financial statements in  conformity  with
        generally   accepted   accounting   principles.    Actual
        results could differ from those estimates.

                   FOUNDATIONS RETIREMENT PLAN
                                
                  Notes to Financial Statements
                                
                                
 (2) Contributions
     
     Participating   associates  may   elect   to   make   pretax
        contributions  from  1% to 15% of their  compensation  to
        the  Plan,  subject  to  annual  limits  imposed  by  the
        Internal   Revenue  Service.   Participants  may   direct
        contributions   into  six  different  investment   funds.
        These  funds  include Fund A (limited to  investments  in
        the  common  stock  of the Company),  Fund  B  (Twentieth
        Century  Ultra  Investors),  Fund  C  (Twentieth  Century
        Growth  Investors),  Fund  D  (Twentieth  Century  Select
        Investors),   Fund   E   (Twentieth   Century    Balanced
        Investors)   and   Fund   F  (Chase   Manhattan   Capital
        Preservation Trust which primarily invests in  short-term
        investments  and  guaranteed insurance  contracts).   The
        Company  will  make matching contributions in  an  amount
        equal  to  20%  of the participant's annual  contribution
        not  to  exceed  the  lesser of 2% of  the  participant's
        compensation  or  $600  per  participant.   All   Company
        contributions are directed to Fund A.
     
 (3) Distributions
     
     Upon  normal retirement, retirement for permanent disability
        or  death, a participant is entitled to the full value of
        the  assets attributable to his or her contributions  and
        Company  contributions made on his or her  behalf.   Upon
        termination  for  any  other  reason,  a  participant  is
        entitled  to  100%  of his or her contributions  and  the
        vested   portion   of  Company  contributions.    Company
        contributions vest 20% after three years of  service  and
        20%   for  each  additional  year  of  service  until   a
        participant  is 100% vested upon completing  seven  years
        of  service.  Forfeitures of nonvested contributions  are
        allocated  to all Plan participants as of the Plan  year-
        end   on   a   pro-rata  basis  according  to  individual
        participant annual earnings.
     
     Participants receive distributions from Fund A in shares  of
        the   Company's  common  stock  except   that   cash   is
        distributed  for  fractional  shares.   Participants  may
        also  elect  to  receive cash for  distributions  with  a
        value  less than $1,000.  During the years ended December
        31,  1995  and 1994, 42,192 shares and 17,109  shares  of
        the    Company's   common   stock,   respectively,   were
        distributed  to  withdrawing participants.   Participants
        receive distributions from all other funds in cash.
     
 (4) Tax Status
     
     The  Plan  received a favorable determination letter,  dated
        August  21,  1994,  from  the  Internal  Revenue  Service
        confirming  the  tax-exempt  status  of  the  Plan  under
        Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code.
     
     The  Company  is  not aware of any activity or  transactions
        that  may  adversely affect the qualified status  of  the
        Plan.

NOTES:											
											
   A reportable transaction is defined by the Department of Labor as:

   o  A single transaction in excess of 5% of the fair value of Plan assets.

   o  A series of transactions with or in conjunction with the same person, 
      involving property other than securities, which amounts in the aggregate
      to more than 5% of the fair value of the Plan assets.

   o  A series of transactions with respect to securities of the same issue 
      which amounts in the aggregate to more than 5% of the fair value of the 
      total Plan assets.

   o  Any transaction with or in conjunction with a person if a prior or 
      subsequent single transaction has occurred with respect to securities 
      with or in conjunction with the same person in an amount in excess of 5% 
      of the fair value of Plan assets.

A reportable transaction is identified by comparing the fair value of the 
transaction at the transaction date with the fair value of the Plan assets at
the beginning of the year ended December 31, 1995.
