Item 5.  Other Events

         On October 7, 1996, EquiMed, Inc. (the "Company" or "EquiMed") 
entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with
Physicians Resource Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("PRG"), and PRG's
wholly-owned subsidiary, PRG Georgia, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("PRG
Georgia"), providing for the sale by the Company and the purchase by PRG Georgia
of the ophthalmology physician practice management and ambulatory surgery center
business of the Company (the "Ophthalmology Business"), including all items of
personal property and other assets used in connection with such business and the
Company's ownership interest in certain subsidiaries involved in the
Ophthalmology Business (the "Transaction"). The consideration to be provided by
PRG Georgia to the Company at closing is $54,563,000 in cash plus the assumption
of an estimated $14,300,000 of the Company's liabilities related to the
Ophthalmology Business, and a further contingent cash amount to be provided no
later than May 15, 1997 based upon additional acquisitions of medical practices
or centers related to the Ophthalmology Business by the Company, PRG Georgia or
another wholly-owned subsidiary of PRG, which acquisitions are consummated by
April 30, 1997 and satisfy certain conditions as provided in the Purchase
Agreement (the "Contingent Consideration"). The consummation of the Transaction
is subject to receipt of all necessary regulatory and other third party
approvals and other customary conditions. Each of the parties has certain rights
to terminate the Transaction under certain circumstances, including among
others, the right of PRG Georgia to terminate at any time prior to November 6,
1996 if, in its sole discretion, its due diligence reveals certain material
adverse conditions with respect to the Ophthalmology Business, and the right of
either PRG Georgia or the Company to terminate the Transaction if it is not
consummated by November 30, 1996, as provided in the Purchase Agreement.

     If the Company were to receive only the minimum consideration of
$54,563,000 in cash and elimination of an estimated $14,300,000 in liabilities
related to the probable disposition of the Ophthalmology Business, then an
after-tax loss of approximately $34,142,000 would be incurred.  This loss
however, will be reduced by any Contingent Consideration received by the
consummation of additional acquisitions of medical practices and centers by
April 30, 1997. The Company will recognize any such Contingent Consideration
when realized.


Item 7.  Financial Statements, Pro Forma Financial Information and Exhibits

(b)  Pro Forma Financial Information

                                 EQUIMED, INC.
                   UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION

     The following unaudited pro forma balance sheet as of June 30, 1996 and the
related unaudited pro forma statement of operations for the six months ended
June 30, 1996 have been prepared to give effect to the probable disposition of
the Ophthalmology Business by the Company, as if the Transaction had been
consummated as of June 30, 1996 with respect to the balance sheet, and January
1, 1996 with respect to the statement of operations. These pro forma statements
do not necessarily reflect the financial position and results of operations as
they would have been if the Company had completed this disposition on the dates
indicated above. This unaudited pro forma financial information should be read
in conjunction with the financial statements and notes of the Company.

     EquiMed's statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1995,
does not include any results of operations of the Ophthalmology Business, as 
this business was acquired in February 1996 in a business combination accounted 
for as a purchase. Accordingly, an unaudited pro forma statement of operations
for the year ended December 31, 1995 is not presented.

             NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS



 (A) To eliminate the Ophthalmology Business results of operations for the six
     months ended June 30, 1996.

 (B) To reduce interest expense on long-term debt and capital lease obligations
     assumed by the acquiring entity.  The interest expense adjustment is based
     on actual interest expense of $241,000.  Borrowings were at an average
     interest rate of approximately 6.4%.

 (C) Adjusts interest expense based on the use of proceeds from the disposition
     of the Ophthalmology Business to reduce borrowings on an EquiMed revolving
     credit facility.  The interest expense adjustment is based on actual
     interest expense of $358,000.  Borrowings were at an average interest rate
     of approximately 8.5%.

 (D) Provides $9,079,000 for income tax expense in connection with the loss on
     disposition of the Ophthalmology Business.  The Company has not provided
     for an income tax benefit at statutory federal and state income tax rates
     because of permanent differences in the carrying amount of assets sold for
     tax and financial reporting purposes.

 (E) Provides $908,000 for income tax expense on the pro forma adjustments to
     results of operations of the Ophthalmology Business for the six months
     ended June 30, 1996.
