              NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS

In management's  opinion,  the  accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  financial
statements  contain  all  adjustments   (consisting  of  only  normal  recurring
adjustments)  considered  necessary for a fair  statement of the results for the
interim  periods presented.   The results  of operations for  the  period  ended
August 31, 1998 are not  necessarily  indicative  of  the results to be expected
for the full fiscal year.  The interim consolidated  financial statements should
be read in conjunction with Managed Care  Solutions, Inc. ("MCS"  or  "Company")
consolidated  financial  statements and notes thereto  included in the Company's
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 1998.

NOTE 2 - NET INCOME PER SHARE

Basic net income per share is computed by  dividing  net income by the  weighted
average number of common shares  outstanding  during each period. Net income per
share  assuming  dilution is computed  by  dividing  net income by the  weighted
average  number of common  shares  outstanding  during the period  after  giving
effect to dilutive  stock options and warrants and adjusted for dilutive  common
shares assumed to be issued on conversion of the Company's convertible loans.

The following is the  computation  of the  reconciliation  of the numerators and
denominators  of net income  per common  share - basic and net income per common
share - assuming  dilution in accordance with Statement of Financial  Accounting
Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share".

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
         AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

INTRODUCTION

MCS is  involved  in a variety  of health  care  programs,  many of which  serve
indigent and Medicaid populations.  The Company's operations include a long-term
care Arizona based health plan, Ventana; an Arizona based primary and acute care
health plan, AHC; management contracts pursuant to which the Company administers
privately owned health plans located in Hawaii, Michigan, New Mexico, and Texas;
the management of healthcare  services for an indigent population for the County
of San Diego;  a  contractual  arrangement  with the State of  Indiana  Medicaid
Agency;  and  a  subsidiary  providing  home  healthcare  and  community  worker
services; CHUSA.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenues for the three-month  period ended August 31, 1998 increased  $4,502,000
to  $19,244,000 as compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year. For the
three-month  period  ended  August 31, 1998,  revenues  generated  from fees for
management of health plans not owned by the Company  increased 60% to $8,702,000
from $5,435,000 for the same period of the previous fiscal year. The increase is
primarily  due to the  addition  of two new plans,  Rio Grande HMO and  Lovelace
Community Health Plan, during fiscal year 1998.  Capitation  revenue for Ventana
and AHC for the  three-month  period  ending  August 31, 1998  increased  13% to
$10,542,000 versus $9,307,000 for the comparable period in the prior fiscal year
due to growth in membership and an increase in capitation rates.

Direct costs of operations  increased to $14,300,000 for the three-month  period
ended August 31, 1998 from $11,780,000 for the corresponding period of the prior
fiscal year. Direct costs of operations for the periods August 31, 1998 and 1997
consisted of $5,345,000 and $3,937,000,  respectively, related to fees generated
from  management  of health  plans not owned by the Company and  $8,955,000  and
$7,843,000, respectively, from operating expenses of Ventana and AHC. The direct
costs of operations to manage plans as a percentage of related revenue decreased
from 72% to 61% for the period  ended  August 31, 1998 versus the same period of
the prior  fiscal  year.  The  decrease is  primarily  due to  additional  costs
incurred  during the period  ended  August  31,  1997  related to start up of an
additional plan in New Mexico which became  operational in October 1997.  Direct
costs  as  a  percentage  of  related revenue for the three-month  period  ended
August 31, 1998 and 1997 were 82% and 84%, respectively, for Ventana and 91% and
85%, respectively, for AHC.  The increase is  due  to  AHC  experiencing  higher
utilization  in the new  counties  it  services  as a result  of a new  contract
effective October 1, 1997.

Marketing,  sales and administrative expenses as a percent of revenues increased
from 19% to 23% for the  three-month  periods  ended  August 31,  1997 and 1998,
respectively.  The increase is primarily  due to separation  agreement  accruals
related to the resignation of James Burns, the Company's former  President,  the
addition of a new Chief Executive  Officer and expenses  related to a management
contract.

Net  interest  income for the  three-month  period  ended  August  31,  1998 was
$163,000 versus $100,000 for the same period of the prior fiscal year.  Interest
income is primarily  related to  investments  held by Ventana and AHC,  which is
partially  offset by interest expense on the Company's  outstanding  convertible
debt. The increase is due to growth in cash and cash equivalents.

Net  income  was  $422,000  and  $188,000  for  the  three-month  periods  ended
August 31,  1998 and 1997,  respectively.  The primary reason for the change was
the  addition of  two management  contracts in  Texas and New Mexico, as well as
growth in membership in plans managed by the Company.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

During the three-month period ended August 31, 1998, the Company's cash and cash
equivalents  decreased  $634,000  to  $12,130,000.   Operating  activities  used
$379,000 for the  three-month  period ended  August 31, 1998,  versus  providing
$499,000 during the three-month period ended August 31, 1997. The primary use of
cash  during the  three-month  period  ended  August 31, 1998 was an increase in
accounts receivable  primarily as a result of the delay in receipt of June, July
and August management fees from the State of Indiana.  Additional uses include a
decrease in accounts  payable and other accrued  liabilities  principally due to
the  payment of fiscal  year 1998  bonuses,  partially  offset by an increase in
accrued medical claims.  During the comparable  period of the prior fiscal year,
cash was provided from income from  operations  and growth in risk pool payables
partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable.

Investing   activities  used   $199,000  for   the  three-month   period   ended
August 31, 1998  as  compared  to  $379,000  for  the same  period of  the prior
fiscal  year.   During the  three-month  period  ended August 31, 1998, cash was
used to  purchase $265,000 of fixed assets and  $100,000  was  used to  increase
performance  bonds, partially offset by payments received on notes receivable of
$131,000.

Financing   activities   used   $56,000  for   the  three-month   period   ended
August 31, 1998  versus  $39,000 in the same  period of the prior  fiscal  year.
Principal  payments  on  long-term  debt  were   the  primary   uses  of  funds.
During  the three-month period ended August 31,  1998, the payments on long-term
debt of $167,000  were  partially  offset by $111,000 of proceeds  received from
common stock issuance related to stock option exercises.

Certain  of  the  Company's   operating   subsidiaries   are  subject  to  state
regulations,  which  require  compliance  with net worth,  reserve  and  deposit
requirements.  To the extent the operating  subsidiaries  must comply with these
regulations,  they may not have the financial  flexibility  to transfer funds to
MCS. Net assets of subsidiaries  (after  inter-company  eliminations)  which, at
August 31, 1998, may not be transferred  to MCS by  subsidiaries  in the form of
loans,  advances  or cash  dividends  without  the  consent of a third party are
referred to as  "Restricted  Net Assets".  Total  Restricted Net Assets of these
operating  subsidiaries  was  $9,638,000  at August 31,  1998,  with deposit and
reserve  requirements   (performance  bonds)  representing   $3,894,000  of  the
Restricted  Net Assets  and net worth  requirements,  in excess of  deposit  and
reserve requirements,  representing the remaining $5,744,000.  Funds provided by
Ventana to MCS under loan  agreements  totaled  $423,000 at August 31, 1998. VHS
provided  these loans in the normal course of  operations.  All such  agreements
were pre-approved as required by the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System
Administration.

The Company believes that its existing capital resources and cash flow generated
from  future  operations  will  enable  it to  maintain  its  current  level  of
operations and its planned operations, including capital expenditures, in fiscal
year 1999.

YEAR 2000 ISSUES

Many existing computer systems do not properly recognize and process dates after
December 31, 1999.  Therefore,  certain  hardware and software,  including  that
utilized by the Company, may have to be modified and/or reprogrammed to properly
function in year 2000 and beyond.  The Company has created an internal year 2000
committee  to  manage  the  project of addressing year 2000 related  issues.  In
May  1998,  the   Committee   began   to  assess   its  internal-use   hardware,
software, non-information systems equipment, procedures and business  processes.
The Company also began communicating  with State agencies,  clients and  vendors
about  year  2000  issues.   The  phases of  the  year 2000  project  consist of
awareness, inventory  analysis,  assessment,  project management, conversion and
testing.  Different aspects of  the Company operations are  in various stages of
the project and overall completion date is targeted for August 1999.

The Company's  operations are highly dependent on automated  systems and systems
applications.  Currently,  the Company utilizes an internally developed software
("MC1") to process claims and pay providers, and considers the software critical
to  its  operations.   The  current  version  of the  MC1  software  is based on
Oracle v. 7.3.3.0.0  which was announced by Oracle  Corporation to be  year 2000
compliant.  The Company is also in the process of deciding whether to enhance or
replace MC1 with other software.  The vendors  currently being reviewed all have
represented that their  software is year 2000  compliant.  The Company  plans to
further test hardware and software  to  assess these  representations  of Oracle
Corporation and other vendors.

The Company also realizes that there are outside influences relative to its year
2000 efforts,  over which it has little or no control.  The year 2000  committee
has  begun to  communicate  with  State  agencies  to  assess  their  year  2000
readiness.  The Company has been  notified by the State of Hawaii that the State
may not  address  all of its year 2000  problems  prior to  December  31,  1999.
However, the Company will attempt to reduce the impact of other parties' failure
to resolve year 2000 problems.

Based on the  Company's  analysis to date,  year 2000 problems and costs are not
expected to have a materially adverse effect on the Company's business,  results
of  operations  or  financial  condition.  The Company  has spent  approximately
$23,000  to date  preparing  and  analyzing  year 2000  issues.  There can be no
assurances that the Company's current systems or those acquired in the future do
not or will not contain undetected defects associated with year 2000 issues that
may result in material costs to the Company. The Company is currently developing
contingency  plans to recover from any undetected  defects and expects to have a
plan in place by the end of January 1999.
