- ----------------------------------              -------------------------------



Item 1.  Security and Issuer

         The title of the class of equity  securities  to which  this  statement
relates is the  Common  Stock,  par value  $0.01 per share  (the  "Shares"),  of
Managed  Care  Solutions,  Inc., a Delaware  corporation  (the  "Company").  The
address of the Company's  principal executive office is 2510 West Dunlap Avenue,
Suite 300, Phoenix, Arizona, 85021.


Item 2.  Identity and Background

         The persons  filing this  Statement  are Hollybank  Investments,  LP, a
Delaware limited  Partnership ("LP") and Dorsey R. Gardner,  the general partner
of LP ("Gardner").  The business address of both Gardner and LP is One Financial
Center, Suite 1600, Boston,  Massachusetts,  02111. LP was formed on January 14,
1994, and is authorized to conduct any business  which may be legally  conducted
by a limited partnership under the laws of Delaware. As of the date hereof, LP's
sole  business is  securities  investment.  During the last five years,  neither
Gardner nor LP has been convicted in a criminal  proceeding  (excluding  traffic
violations and similar misdemeanors),  nor has either Gardner or LP been a party
to a  civil  proceeding  of a  judicial  or  administrative  body  of  competent
jurisdiction as a result of which Gardner or LP was or is subject to a judgment,
decree  or final  order  enjoining  future  violations  of,  or  prohibiting  or
mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any
violation with respect to such laws.


Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

         This statement  relates  specifically  to Gardner's  September 27, 1996
purchase of 22,000 Shares of Managed Care  Solutions,  Inc. at a per share price
of $3.425 (including the $.06/share commission) on the NASD. This purchase, when
aggregated  with  Gardner and LP's  previously  purchased  Shares,  gave Gardner
deemed beneficial ownership of 219,233 of the 4,364,712 outstanding Shares, thus
triggering this reporting  requirement.  Gardner used his personal funds to make
this and every other Share  purchase,  while LP used its working capital for its
purchases.


Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction

         LP and Gardner have purchased their respective  shares strictly for the
purpose of equity  security  investment.  Neither Gardner nor LP has any present
plans or proposals which would relate to or result in:

control of the Company by any person;

         (h) Causing a class of  securities of the Company to be delisted from a
national  securities  exchange or to cease to be  authorized  to be quoted in an
inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association;

         (i) A class of equity  securities of the Company becoming  eligible for
