                  Re:  Registration Statement on Form S-8

Ladies and Gentlemen:

                  We  have  served  as  your  counsel  in  connection  with  the
preparation  of your  Registration  Statement  on Form  S-8  (the  "Registration
Statement") to be filed with the Securities  and Exchange  Commission  under the
Securities  Act of 1933, as amended,  representing  the offering and issuance to
certain  persons  under  the  IntegraMed   America,   Inc.  1992  Incentive  and
Non-Incentive  Stock  Option Plan,  as amended and  restated  (the "Plan") of an
aggregate of 1,050,000 shares of your Common Stock,  $.01 par value (the "Common
Stock").

                  We have examined such corporate records, documents and matters
of law as we have considered appropriate for the purposes of this opinion.

                  Based upon such examination, it is our opinion that the Common
Stock,  when issued in the manner described in the manner described in the Plan,
will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

                  We  consent  to  the  reference   made  to  our  firm  in  the
Registration  Statement  and to the filing of this  opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement.



                                      Very truly yours,

                                      /s/ Bacher, Tally, Polevoy & Misher LLP

                        1992 INCENTIVE AND NON-INCENTIVE

                                STOCK OPTION PLAN

                                       OF

                            INTEGRAMED AMERICA, INC.

                   (As Amended and Restated on June 10, 1997)

1.       Purpose of Plan.
         ----------------

         The purpose of this 1992 Incentive and Non-Incentive  Stock Option Plan
("Plan") is to further the growth and  development of IntegraMed  America,  Inc.
(the "Company") its direct and indirect subsidiaries and the entities with which
the  Company  collaborates  to  deliver  services  (hereinafter   "Collaborating
Entities") by encouraging selected employees,  directors,  consultants,  agents,
independent  contractors  and other persons who  contribute  and are expected to
contribute  materially to the Company's success to obtain a proprietary interest
in the Company  through the ownership of stock,  thereby  providing such persons
with an added  incentive  to  promote  the best  interests  of the  Company  and
affording  the  Company  a  means  of  attracting  to  its  service  persons  of
outstanding ability.

2.       Stock Subject to the Plan.
         --------------------------

         An aggregate of 1,300,000  shares of the Company's  Common Stock,  $.01
par value ("Common Stock"),  subject,  however, to adjustment or change pursuant
to  paragraph 12 hereof,  shall be reserved  for  issuance  upon the exercise of
options  which  may be  granted  from time to time in  accordance  with the Plan
("Options").  Such  shares  may be, in whole or in part,  as the  Incentive  and
Non-Incentive Stock Option Plan Committee  ("Committee") shall from time to time
determine,  authorized  but  unissued  shares or issued  shares  which have been
reacquired by the Company.  If, for any reason, an Option shall lapse, expire or
terminate without having been exercised in full, the unpurchased  shares covered
thereby shall again be available for purposes of the Plan.

3.       Administration.
         ---------------

         (a)  The Board of Directors  shall appoint the Committee from among its
              members. Such Committee shall be composed of two or more Directors
              who shall be  "disinterested  persons"  as defined  by  Regulation
              240.16b-3  under the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
              Such  Committee  shall  have and may  exercise  any and all of the
              powers relating to the administration of the Plan and the grant of
              Options  thereunder as are set forth in subparagraph  3(b) hereof.
              The Board of  Directors  shall  have the power at any time to fill
              vacancies in, to change the  membership  of, or to discharge  such
              Committee.  The  Committee  shall select one of its members as its
              chairman  and  shall  hold its  meetings  at such time and at such
              places as it shall deem  advisable.  A majority of such  Committee
              shall  constitute a quorum and such majority  shall  determine its
              action.  Any  action  may be taken  without a meeting  by  written
              consent of all the members of the Committee.  The Committee  shall
              keep minutes of its  proceedings  and shall report the same to the
              Board of Directors at the meeting next succeeding.

         (b)  The  Committee  shall  administer  the Plan  and,  subject  to the
              provisions  of  the  Plan,   shall  have  sole  authority  in  its
              discretion to determine the persons to whom, and the time or times
              at which,  Options  shall be  granted,  the number of shares to be
              subject to each such Option and whether all or any portion of such
              Options  shall be incentive  stock options  ("Incentive  Options")
              qualifying under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
              as  amended  ("Code"),  or stock  options  which do not so qualify
              ("Non-Incentive    Options").    Both   Incentive    Options   and
              Non-Incentive  Options  may be granted  to the same  person at the
              same time provided each type of Option is clearly  designated.  In
              making such  determinations,  the  Committee may take into account
              the nature of the services rendered by such persons, their present
              and  potential  contributions  to the  Company's  success and such
              other  factors as the  Committee in its sole  discretion  may deem
              relevant.  Subject  to the  express  provisions  of the Plan,  the
              Committee  shall also have the authority to interpret the Plan, to
              prescribe,  amend  and  rescind  rules  and  regulations  relating
              thereto,  to determine the terms and  provisions of the respective
              Option  Agreements,  which  shall be  substantially  in the  forms
              attached  hereto as Exhibit A and Exhibit B, and to make all other
              determinations  necessary or advisable for the  administration  of
              the Plan, all of which  determinations shall be conclusive and not
              subject to review.

4.       Eligibility for Receipt of Options.
         -----------------------------------

         (a)  Incentive Options.

              Incentive  Options  may be granted  only to  employees  (including
              officers) of the Company and/or any of its subsidiaries.

              The aggregate Fair Market Value (as defined in paragraph 5 of this
              Plan) determined as of the time the Incentive Option is granted of
              the shares of the Company's  Common Stock  purchasable  thereunder
              exercisable  for the first time by an employee during any calendar
              year may not exceed $100,000.

              A director of the Company or any subsidiary who is not an employee
              of the Company or of one of its  subsidiaries  is not  eligible to
              receive  Incentive  Options  under  the Plan.  Further,  Incentive
              Options  may not be  granted to any  person  who,  at the time the
              Incentive  Option is  granted,  owns (or is  considered  as owning
              within the meaning of Section 424(d) of the Code) stock possessing
              more than 10% of the total  combined  voting powers of all classes
              of stock of the Company or any subsidiary  (10% Owner),  unless at
              the time the  Incentive  Option is  granted  to a 10%  Owner,  the
              option  price is at least  110% of the  fair  market  value of the
              Common  Stock  subject  thereto and such  Incentive  Option by its
              terms is not exercisable subsequent to five years from the date of
              grant.

         (b)  Non-Incentive Options.

              (i)    Non-Incentive  Options  may  be  granted  to  any  employee
                     (including   employees  who  have  been  granted  Incentive
                     Options),  directors,   consultants,   agents,  independent
                     contractors and other persons whom the Committee determines
                     will contribute to the Company's success.

              (ii)   Directors of the Company who are not full-time employees of
                     the Company and receiving compensation as such (an "Outside
                     Director"),  will receive a Non-Incentive Option ("Director
                     Option")  exercisable  to purchase  30,000 shares of Common
                     Stock   immediately   following  the  initial  election  or
                     appointment  of such Outside  Director.  The exercise price
                     for each share  subject  to the  Director  Option  shall be
                     equal to the "Fair Market Value" of the Common Stock on the
                     date of grant (which,  if the Common Stock is traded on the
                     Nasdaq  National   Market  or  on  a  national   securities
                     exchange,  shall be the  closing  sale  price of the Common
                     Stock  on the  Nasdaq  National  Market  or  such  national
                     securities   exchange  on  the  business  day   immediately
                     preceding the date of such election or appointment,  as the
                     case may be,  or on the next  preceding  date on which  the
                     Common  stock is traded if no  Common  Stock was  traded on
                     such immediately  preceding business day;  otherwise,  Fair
                     Market Value shall be  determined by the Board of Directors
                     in the  manner  otherwise  described  in  Section 5 of this
                     Plan).  Director  Options  shall become  exercisable  in an
                     amount equal to 25% of the total  number of shares  subject
                     to the Director  Option  exercisable one year following the
                     date of grant and the  balance  exercisable  at the rate of
                     6.25% of the total number of shares subject to the Director
                     Option every three months  thereafter,  and will expire the
                     earlier of 10 years from the date of grant or 90 days after
                     the termination of such Outside  Director's  service on the
                     Board of Directors;  provided,  however, that such Director
                     Options will vest immediately upon a "Change in Control" of
                     the  Company.  The term  "Change in  Control" is defined to
                     mean any one or more changes in the  aggregate  composition
                     of the Board of Directors as a result of which  individuals
                     constituting  the Board of  Directors on July 26, 1994 (the
                     "Incumbent  Board"),  cease to constitute a majority of the
                     Board of Directors;  provided, however, that any individual
                     elected to the Board by, or  nominated  for  election by, a
                     majority of the then  current  Incumbent  Board  (except if
                     such  person  assumes  office  by  reason  of an  actual or
                     threatened  election  contest)  is deemed to be a member of
                     the current Incumbent Board.  Further, no Change in Control
                     will be  deemed  to occur as a result of an event or events
                     approved by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

             (iii)   the provisions of Section 4(b)(ii) shall not be amended, if
                     at all,  more than  once  every six  months  other  than to
                     comport with changes in the Code or the rules thereunder.

5.       Option Price.
         ------------

         The  purchase  price of the shares of Common  Stock  under each  Option
shall be determined by the Committee,  which  determination  shall be conclusive
and not  subject to review.  In no event shall the  purchase  price of shares of
Common  Stock  under an  Incentive  Option be less than 100% of the fair  market
value of the Common Stock on the date of grant (110% of fair market value in the
case of Incentive Options granted to a 10% Owner).

         In  determining  the  fair  market  value of the  Common  Stock as of a
specified date (the "Fair Market Value"),  the Committee shall consider,  if the
Common  Stock is listed  on the New York  Stock  Exchange  or  another  national
securities  exchange,  the closing price of the Common Stock on the business day
immediately  preceding  the date as of  which  the  Fair  Market  Value is being
determined,  or on the next  preceding date on which such Common Stock is traded
if no Common Stock was traded on such immediately preceding business day, or, if
the  Common  Stock is not so  listed  on a  national  securities  exchange,  but
publicly traded,  the representative  closing bid price in the  over-the-counter
market as reported by NASDAQ or as quoted by the National  Quotation Bureau or a
recognized  dealer in the Common Stock,  on the date  immediately  preceding the
date as of which  the Fair  Market  Value  is being  determined,  or on the next
preceding  date on which  such  Common  Stock is traded  if no Common  Stock was
traded on such  immediately  preceding  business  day.  The  Committee  may also
consider such other factors as it shall deem appropriate.

         For  purposes of the Plan,  the date of grant of an Option shall be the
date on which the Committee shall by resolution duly authorize such Option.

6.       Term of Options.
         ----------------

         (a)      Incentive Options.

                  The term of each  Incentive  Option  shall be ten years  (five
                  years  in the  case of a 10%  Owner)  from  the  date of grant
                  thereof,  or  such  shorter  period  as  the  Committee  shall
                  determine, subject to earlier termination as herein provided.


                                        4

<PAGE>



         (b)      Non-Incentive Options.

                  The term of each Non-Incentive  Option shall be such number of
                  years as the  Committee  shall  determine,  subject to earlier
                  termination as herein provided.

7.       Exercise of Options.
         --------------------

         (a)      The Committee  shall determine the dates upon which any Option
                  granted  under  the  Plan  shall  be  exercisable,   provided,
                  however,  no Incentive  Option shall be  exercisable  until at
                  least one year after the date of grant.

                  An Option may not be exercised for less than ten shares at any
                  one time (or the  remaining  shares then  purchasable  if less
                  than ten) and may not be exercised  for  fractional  shares of
                  the Company's Common Stock.

         (b)      Except as  provided  in  paragraphs  9, 10 and 11  hereof,  no
                  Option shall be  exercisable  unless the holder  thereof shall
                  have   been  an   employee,   director,   consultant,   agent,
                  independent  contractor or other person employed by or engaged
                  in  performing  services for the Company  and/or a subsidiary,
                  either   directly   or   through   a   Collaborating   Entity,
                  continuously from the date of grant to the date of exercise.

         (c)      The  exercise of an Option  shall be  contingent  upon receipt
                  from the holder  thereof of a written  representation  that at
                  the time of such  exercise it is the  optionee's  then present
                  intention to acquire the Option shares for  investment and not
                  with a view to the  distribution  or resale thereof  (unless a
                  Registration  Statement  covering the shares purchasable shall
                  have been declared  effective by the  Securities  and Exchange
                  Commission)  and upon  receipt by the  Company  of cash,  or a
                  check  to its  order,  for the  full  purchase  price  of such
                  shares;   plus  any  amount,   if  any,  as  is  required  for
                  withholding taxes; provided, however, that with the consent of
                  the  Committee  or  such  officer  of  the  Company  as may be
                  authorized  by the Committee  from time to time,  the purchase
                  price and such amount,  if any, as is required for withholding
                  taxes may be paid by the  surrender  of  Common  Stock in good
                  form for transfer  owned by the person  exercising  the Option
                  and having a Fair Market  Value on the date of exercise  equal
                  to the purchase price and such amount,  if any, as is required
                  for  withholding  taxes,  or in any  combination  of cash  and
                  Common  Stock so long as the total of the cash so paid and the
                  Fair Market Value of the Common Stock  surrendered  equals the
                  purchase  price and such  amount,  if any, as is required  for
                  withholding  taxes,  and the Common Stock so  surrendered,  if
                  originally  issued to the optionee  upon exercise of an option
                  granted by the  Company,  shall have been held by the optionee
                  for more than six (6) months.  Any Common  Stock  delivered in
                  satisfaction of all or any portion of the purchase price shall
                  be  appropriately  endorsed for transfer and assignment to the
                  Company. No shares shall be issued until full payment therefor
                  has been made, and any withholding  obligations of the Company
                  have been satisfied.

<PAGE>

                 
         (d)      The  holder of an Option  shall  have none of the  rights of a
                  stockholder  with  respect  to  the  shares  purchasable  upon
                  exercise  of the Option  until a  certificate  for such shares
                  shall have been issued to the holder upon due  exercise of the
                  Option.

         (e)      The  proceeds  received  by the  Company  upon  exercise of an
                  Option shall be added to the Company's  working capital and be
                  available for general corporate purposes.

8.       Non-Transferability of Options.
         -------------------------------

         No option granted pursuant to the Plan shall be transferable  otherwise
than  by will or the  laws of  descent  or  distribution  and an  Option  may be
exercised during the lifetime of the holder only by such holder.

9.       Termination of Employment or Engagement.
         ----------------------------------------

         In the  event  the  employment  of the  holder  of an  Option  shall be
terminated by the Company or a subsidiary for any reason other than by reason of
death  or  disability,   or  the  engagement  of  a  non-employee  holder  of  a
Non-Incentive  Option shall be  terminated by the Company or a subsidiary or the
employment of an employee of a Collaborating  Entity shall be terminated for any
reason,  or an Outside Director holder of a Non-Incentive  Option shall cease to
serve as a director of the Company for any reason, such holder's Option, and his
rights to exercise such Option shall  terminate,  lapse and expire effective the
date falling three months after  termination of such  employment,  engagement or
director status. Absence on leave approved by the employer corporation shall not
be considered  an  interruption  of  employment  for any purpose under the Plan.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Option may be exercised subsequent to the date
of its expiration.

         Nothing in the Plan or in any Option Agreement  granted hereunder shall
confer upon any  Optionholder any right to continue in the employ of the Company
or any  subsidiary  or obligate  the Company or any  subsidiary  to continue the
engagement  of any  Optionholder  or  interfere in any way with the right of the
Company or any such  subsidiary to terminate such  Optionholder's  employment or
engagement at any time.

10.      Disability of Holder of Option.
         -------------------------------

         If the  employment  of the holder of an Option shall be  terminated  by
reason of such holder's  disability,  such holder may,  within one year from the
date of such  termination,  exercise  such  Option to the extent such Option was
exercisable by such holder at the date of such termination.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no Option may be exercised subsequent to the date of its expiration.


                                        6

<PAGE>



11.      Death of Holder of Option.
         --------------------------

         If the holder of any Option  shall die while in the employ of, or while
performing  services  for,  the Company or one or more of its  subsidiaries  (or
within six months  following  termination  of  employment  due to  disability or
within three months  following  termination of employment for any other reason),
the Option theretofore granted to such person may be exercised,  but only to the
extent such Option was  exercisable by the holder at the date of death (or, with
respect to employees,  the date of  termination of employment due to disability)
by the legatee or legatees of such person under such  person's  Last Will, or by
such person's personal representative or distributees,  within one year from the
date of death but in no event subsequent to the expiration date of the Option.

12.      Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization.
         -------------------------------------------

         If at any time after the date of grant of an Option,  the Company shall
by stock  dividend,  split-up,  combination,  reclassification  or exchange,  or
through merger or consolidation or otherwise,  change its shares of Common Stock
into a  different  number  or kind or class of  shares  or other  securities  or
property,  then the number of shares  covered  by such  Option and the price per
share  thereof  shall be  proportionately  adjusted  for any such  change by the
Committee,  whose determination thereon shall be conclusive. In the event that a
fraction of a share results from the foregoing  adjustment,  said fraction shall
be  eliminated  and the price per share of the remaining  shares  subject to the
Option adjusted accordingly.

13.      Option Agreements.
         ------------------

         Notwithstanding  anything  contained  in the Plan or in any  resolution
adopted or to be adopted by the Committee or the stockholders of the Company, no
rights  under any  Option  may be  asserted  unless  and until a written  Option
Agreement,  substantially  in the form of the Incentive  Stock Option  Agreement
attached  hereto  as  Exhibit  A or the  Non-Incentive  Stock  Option  Agreement
attached  hereto as Exhibit B, shall be duly  executed  and  delivered by and on
behalf of the Company and the person to whom the Option shall be granted.

14.      Termination and Amendment.
         -------------------------

         This Plan shall  terminate  on April 30,  2002,  and no Option shall be
granted  under the Plan after such date.  The Board of Directors may at any time
prior to such date terminate the Plan or make such  modifications  or amendments
thereto as it shall deem advisable provided, however, that

               (i)     no  increase  shall be made in the  aggregate  number  of
                       shares which may be issued under the Plan;



                                        7

<PAGE>



                (ii)   no termination, modification or amendment shall adversely
                       affect  the  rights of a holder  of an Option  previously
                       granted under the Plan;

                (iii)  no   material   modification   shall   be   made  to  the
                       requirements  of  eligibility  for  participation  in the
                       Plan; and

                (iv)   no  material  increase  shall  be  made  in the  benefits
                       accruing to participants under the Plan.
