             PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCED CALL FOR REDEMPTION OF DEBENTURES

acquire Medical Manager Corporation (NASDAQ: MMGR), a leading provider of
physician practice management systems, and its publicly traded subsidiary,
CareInsite, Inc. (NASDAQ:CARI), a provider of innovative healthcare network and
communication services.

         The signing of agreements to acquire Medical Manager and CareInsite by

principal amount of its outstanding 5% Convertible Subordinated Debentures due
2007.

         As an alternative to redemption, the outstanding debentures will be
convertible into Medical Manager common stock at the rate of approximately
16.667 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of debentures, with
cash to be paid in lieu of any fractional shares, for debentures surrendered
prior to 5:00 pm., New York City time, today, February 14, 2000 (the Conversion
Expiration Date), which is the last business day prior to the Redemption Date.

tendered for redemption by the close of business on February 15, 2000, the
Redemption Date, will be redeemed at a redemption price of $1,053.57 per $1,000
principal amount of debenture, including accrued interest of $25.00.
