Item 4. Changes in Certifying Accountants
On June 25, 1998, Vista Information Solutions, Inc. (the "Company") dismissed
McGladrey & Pullen, LLP, the Company's independent auditors. During the
Company's two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim periods up
to the date of termination, there were no disagreements with McGladrey &
Pullen on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures which, if not resolved
to the satisfaction of McGladrey & Pullen LLP, would have caused McGladrey &
Pullen LLP to make reference to the matter in their report. McGladrey &
Pullen's report on the Company's financial statements for each period for
which McGladrey & Pullen performed an audit of the Company's financial
statements contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not
modified or qualified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting
principles. The decision to change accountants was approved by the Board of
Directors of the Company. The Company has requested McGladrey & Pullen to
furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission
stating whether it agrees with the above statements.
On July 14, 1998, the Company engaged Deloitte & Touche LLP to act as its
independent auditors to audit the Company's consolidated financial
statements. The Company did not consult with Deloitte & Touche LLP regarding
the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either
completed or proposed or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on
the Company's financial statements during the Company's two most recent
fiscal years or during the subsequent interim periods.
