ITEM 4 - CHANGE IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT

On December 1, 1998,  Registrant  and Ernst & Young LLP,  its  auditors,  ceased
their relationship.

Registrant's  certifying  account,  Ernst & Young  LLP had no  disagreements  or
reportable events during registrants two most recent fiscal years March 31, 1998
and March 31, 1997 through the date of termination on December 1, 1998.

Neither  Ernst & Young  report  dated June 29,  1998 on  Registrant's  financial
statements  for the year ended March 31, 1998 nor its report dated June 20, 1997
for the year ended March 31, 1997  contained an adverse  opinion or a disclaimer
of opinion and neither report was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit
scope or accounting principles.

The decision to cease  relations with Ernst & Young and engage a new auditor was
mutual due to distance and economics.  The decision was approved by the Board of
Directors and was based upon the fact that Ernst & Young was sending a team from
Cleveland,  originating  from  when  NuMED  maintained  a  financial  office  in
Cleveland,  Ohio. That NuMED office closed in 1997. NuMed Home Health Care, Inc.
will seek auditors in the Tampa Bay Region.
