                      MEDICAL MANAGER CORPORATION CALLS ITS
                     SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES FOR REDEMPTION

              ELMWOOD PARK, NJ, JANUARY 31, 2000 - Medical Manager Corporation
(NASDAQ: MMGR) announced today it has called for redemption on February 15, 2000
(the Redemption Date), the entire $159,388,000 aggregate principal amount of its
outstanding 5% Convertible Subordinated Debentures Due 2007.

                  As an alternative to redemption, the outstanding debentures
are convertible into Medical Manager Corporation 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 p.m., New York City time, on February 14,
2000 (the Conversion Expiration Date), which is the last business day prior to
the Redemption Date.

                  Debentures not properly submitted for conversion by February
14, 2000, the Conversion Expiration Date, or not 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 debentures,
including accrued interest of $25.00.

                  Arrangements have been made with Warburg Dillon Read LLC to
purchase from the Company all of the shares of common stock that otherwise would
have been issuable upon conversion of the $159,388,000 aggregate principal
amount of the debentures that are either (i) duly surrendered for redemption or
(ii) not duly surrendered for conversion by February 14, 2000, the Conversion
Expiration Date, or for redemption by February 15, 2000, the Redemption Date.

                  The Company has filed a registration statement today, January
31, 2000, with the Securities and Exchange Commission related to these shares of
common stock but the registration statement has not yet become effective. The
Company intends to mail a notice of redemption to all holders of record when the
registration statement is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The shares of common stock may not be sold nor may offers to buy be
accepted prior to the time the registration statement becomes effective.
