              Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

(1)  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

     Use of Estimates

     Management  of the Company has made a number of estimates  and  assumptions
     relating to the reporting of assets and  liabilities  and the disclosure of
     contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these financial  statements in
     conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

     Principles of Consolidation

     The consolidated  financial  statements include the financial statements of
     the  Company  and  its  two  wholly  owned  subsidiaries.  All  significant
     intercompany   balances   and   transactions   have  been   eliminated   in
     consolidation.

     Investments in Affiliated Companies

     In May 1997,  the company paid  $309,626 to purchase a 12.4%  investment in
     Hayes, Inc. Hayes is involved in the healthcare  technology  business.  The
     investment  in the  common  stock  of Hayes  is  accounted  for by the cost
     method.

     Cash Equivalents

     Cash  equivalents  of  $406,550 at June 30,  1997  consist of money  market
     accounts  with the Company's  primary  financial  institution.  The Company
     considers all highly liquid  instruments with original  maturities of three
     months or less to be cash equivalents.

     Earnings per Share

     Earnings per share are based upon the weighted  average number of shares of
     common stock. There are no significant dilutive factors outstanding.

     Fair Value of Financial Instruments

     The  fair  value of a  financial  instrument  is the  amount  at which  the
     instrument  could be exchanged  in a current  transaction  between  willing
     parties.  Management  believes that the recorded  amounts of current assets
     and  current  liabilities  approximate  fair  value  because  of the  short
     maturity of these instruments.

              Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

     Business and Credit Concentration

     The Company operates in a very competitive market. Its success is dependent
     upon the  ability  of its  marketing  group to  continue  to  identify  and
     contract with insurance companies and self-funded companies.  The Company's
     customers  are  located  throughout  the  United  States.   Four  customers
     accounted for the majority of the company's revenues.

     Revenue Recognition

     Repricing  fees are derived  from a  negotiated  percentage  of the medical
     savings  generated from customer claims managed by the Company.  These fees
     are  recognized  as revenue  when the  Company  notifies  the  health  care
     provider of their required billing reduction.

     Member fees are derived from companies that purchase annual  memberships in
     the FAVS program.  The membership fees are received at the inception of the
     annual  contract;  revenue is  deferred at that point and  recognized  on a
     straight-line basis over the 12-month period.

     Property and Equipment

     Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated using
     the  straight-line  method over the  estimated  useful lives of the assets,
     which  approximates  three years for  equipment to five years for furniture
     and fixtures.

     Impairment of Long-lived Assets

     Management reviews the possible impairment of long-lived assets and certain
     identifiable  intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances
     indicate  that the  carrying  amount  of an asset  may not be  recoverable.
     Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of
     the  carrying  amount of an asset to future net cash flows  expected  to be
     generated by the asset.  If such assets are considered to be impaired,  the
     impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying
     amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.

(3)  Note Payable

     The   Company's   subsidiary,   National   Health   Benefits  and  Casualty
     Corporation,   maintains  an  $80,000  line  of  credit  with  a  financial
     institution.  Borrowings  pursuant to the line of credit  bear  interest at
     prime  plus 2%.  The line is  collateralized  by  accounts  receivable  and
     furniture and  equipment  and is guaranteed by the Company's  shareholders.
     There were no drawings against this line of credit at June 30, 1997.

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
          Results of Operations.

This Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations  should be read in  conjunction  with the  financial  statements  and
footnotes  for the three months ended June 30, 1997 and the year ended March 31,
1997 contained in the Company's Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on June 27, 1997.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The  company's  consolidated  revenues for the quarter  ended June 30, 1997 were
$723,008  compared to $466,419 for the quarter  ended June 30, 1996, an increase
of $256,589 or 55%. The revenue increase is primarily attributable to the growth
in the  company's  managed  health care  programs.  The company  entered  into a
contract with Farmer's  Insurance Group of Companies to provide health care cost
containment  services throughout the United States. This contract is expected to
substantially contribute to the revenue growth in future periods.

The  company  had net  income of  $31,388 in the  quarter  ended  June 30,  1997
compared  to net income of  $82,595 in the  quarter  ended  June 30,  1996.  The
decrease  in net  income is  primarily  the result of the  company's  additional
staffing  and  facilities'  costs  required  to provide  the  infrastructure  to
accommodate the company's anticipated future revenue growth.

COST OF SERVICES

The  company's  cost of  services  consists  primarily  of  access  fees paid to
regional PPO networks for  providers not  contracted  directly with the company,
commissions paid to outside brokers and in-house  marketing  personnel and other
services and products  provided by outside vendors.  Cost of services  increased
40% in the quarter, to $282,917 compared with $202,488 in the quarter ended June
30, 1996. The increase in the company's cost of services is the direct result of
the 55% increase in revenues  for the quarter.  Cost of services as a percentage
of revenue for the quarter, decreased to 39% from 43% from the quarter in fiscal
year 1997.  The  improvement  is the result of the company's  ongoing  effort to
contract  directly  with the  health  care  facilities  and  providers,  thereby
reducing network provider access fees.
                                      -9-

GENERAL AND ADMINISTATIVE EXPENSES

For the quarter ended June 30, 1997,  general and  administrative  expenses were
$398,703 compared to $181,336 for the quarter ended June 30, 1996. This increase
was due  primarily  to expenses for  additional  management  and  administrative
personnel to accommodate the increase in business and future growth. The company
expects general and administrative expenses to increase in the future due to the
costs associated with a publicly traded entity.

LIQUIDITY & CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company has historically funded its working capital requirements and capital
expenditures primarily from cash flow generated from operations  supplemented by
short-term borrowings under the Company's line of credit.

Working  capital was  $436,723  while cash  equivalents  comprised  of $406,550.
During the quarter, the company used $309,626 for a 12.4% investment in Hayes.

The Company has an $80,000  secured line of credit with Norwest Bank of Arizona.
The line of  credit  bears  interest  at  prime  plus 2% and is  secured  by the
Company's accounts receivable and furniture and equipment.

Although  there can be no  assurances,  management  of the  Company  anticipates
growth  and  expansion  to  accelerate  in  1998  through  the   acquisition  of
complementary   businesses   or  business   lines,   management   personnel  and
infrastructure  additions.  The Company believes additional sources of cash flow
will be  required,  in  addition  to  funds  from  the  operations,  in order to
accomplish its long-term strategies.  There can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to obtain such funds on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all.
