INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


To the Trustees and Participants of the Mental Health
     Management, Inc. Employees' Savings Plan:


We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for plan
benefits of the Mental Health Management, Inc. Employees' Savings Plan (the
"Plan") as of September 30, 1996, and the related statement of changes in net
assets available for plan benefits for the year then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. The
accompanying financial statements of the Plan as of September 30, 1995 and 1994,
were audited by other auditors whose report thereon dated April 13, 1996,
expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the 1996 financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits as of
September 30, 1996 and the changes in net assets available for plan benefits for
the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules listed in the
foregoing table of contents are presented for the purpose of additional analysis
and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are
supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974. The 1996 Fund information in the statement of net assets
available for plan benefits and the statement of changes in net assets available
for plan benefits is presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than
to present the net assets available for plan benefits and changes in net assets
available for plan benefits of each fund. The supplemental schedules and Fund
Information have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit
of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all
material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.

MENTAL HEALTH MANAGEMENT, INC. EMPLOYEES' SAVINGS PLAN

Notes to Financial Statements

SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AND 1995

(1)  DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

     The following description of the Mental Health Management, Inc. Employees'
     Savings Plan (the Plan) provides only general information. Participants
     should refer to the Summary Plan Description for a more complete
     description of the Plan provisions.

     GENERAL
 
     The effective date of the Plan was September 1, 1993. The Plan is a defined
     contribution plan. Employees are eligible to join the Plan upon completion
     of one year of service during which they have worked a minimum of 1,000
     hours and are age 21 or older.

     CONTRIBUTIONS

     Participants may contribute to the Plan from 1 percent to 15 percent of
     their salaries to be invested, as they choose, in the various funds
     described in note 3. The Plan provides that MHM Services, Inc. (formerly
     Mental Health Management, Inc.) (the Company) will make a matching
     contribution equal to $.50 for each $1.00 contributed by a participant, not
     to exceed 3 percent of the participant's compensation. The Company's
     matching contribution is made in cash to be used to purchase shares of the
     common stock of the Company for the accounts of the participants.

     VESTING

     A participant's accrued benefit is at all times fully vested and
     nonforfeitable upon death, retirement, disability or termination of
     employment.

     PARTICIPANT LOANS

     Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to
     a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50 percent of their account
     balance. Loan terms range from one to five years or up to ten years for the
     building, rehabilitation or purchase of a primary residence. The loans are
     secured by the balances in the participants' accounts and bear interest at
     a rate commensurate with local prevailing rates. Principal and interest are
     paid ratably through payroll deductions.

     PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

     Upon termination of service, participants may elect to receive a lump-sum
     payout of their accounts. If the account balance at termination exceeds
     $3,500, a participant may leave the money in the Plan after leaving the
     Company. Participants may also qualify for up to two hardship withdrawals
     per Plan year with respect to amounts attributable to basic contributions.
     In order to obtain a hardship withdrawal, participants must exhaust the
     possibility of all other withdrawals (other than hardship withdrawals)
     under the Plan. Upon receiving a hardship distribution, participants are
     suspended from making contributions to the Plan for one year.



                                                                (Continued)

MENTAL HEALTH MANAGEMENT, INC. EMPLOYEES' SAVINGS PLAN

Notes to Financial Statements


(1)  CONTINUED

     Distributions from the funds, with the exception of the MHM Services, Inc.
     (MHM) stock fund, are made in cash. Distributions from the MHM stock fund
     are in the form of the securities held; however, distributions of the
     Company's common stock shall be made in cash whenever the number of shares
     to be distributed is 100 or less.


(2)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     BASIS OF ACCOUNTING

     The financial statements of the Plan are prepared under the accrual method
     of accounting.

     USE OF ESTIMATES

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
     accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
     assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
     disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
     financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
     during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
     estimates.

     INVESTMENT VALUATION AND INCOME RECOGNITION

     The Plan's investments are stated at fair value which is determined by
     closing prices as of the last trading day of the Plan year. Purchases and
     sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Participant loans
     are valued at cost which approximates fair market value. Dividends and
     interest are recorded when earned.

     PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

     Benefits are recorded when paid.


(3)  INVESTMENT OPTIONS

     Contributions are invested in accordance with the written directions of the
     participants in one or more of the following funds:

     LARGE CAPITALIZATION VALUE EQUITY FUND

     The objective of this fund is to seek total return consisting of capital
     appreciation and dividend income by investing primarily in a diversified
     portfolio of highly liquid common stocks. The portfolio's assets will be
     invested primarily in common stocks of issuers with total market
     capitalization of $1 billion or greater at the time of purchase.



                                                                    (Continued)

Notes to Financial Statements


(3)  CONTINUED

     LARGE CAPITALIZATION GROWTH EQUITY FUND

     This fund seeks substantial capital appreciation over time by investing
     primarily in a diversified portfolio of common stocks, characterized by a
     growth of earnings at a rate faster than that of the S&P 500 index. The
     Portfolio's assets will be invested primarily in common stocks of issuers
     with total market capitalization of $1 billion or greater at the time of
     purchase.

     SMALL CAPITALIZATION GROWTH EQUITY FUND

     This fund seeks to achieve maximum long-term capital appreciation through
     investing primarily in the common stock of "emerging growth" companies
     (total market capitalization of $550 million or less).

     INTERNATIONAL EQUITY FUND

     This fund seeks to achieve long-term capital appreciation through investing
     primarily in equity securities of companies domiciled outside the United
     States.

     INTERMEDIATE FIXED INCOME FUND

     This fund seeks a high level of current income, with potential for some
     capital appreciation, while keeping risk at a minimum. The fund invests in
     high quality, intermediate-term fixed income securities.

     STABLE VALUE FUND

     This fund seeks to provide stable investment returns with a high degree of
     capital protection by investing primarily in contracts (GIC's and BIC's)
     that are guaranteed by high rated, major life insurance companies and
     banks, other GIC Collective Funds, and in cash equivalents.

     MHM SERVICES, INC. STOCK FUND

     Purchase of MHM common stock allows employees to invest in their Company
     stock over and above the matching contribution.



                                                                    (Continued)

(3)  CONTINUED

     MEDIQ STOCK FUND

     In August of 1993, the company spun off from MEDIQ Incorporated and formed
     a separate entity. This fund contains the common stock of MEDIQ
     Incorporated.

     Investment in each of these funds (with the exception of the MHM Services,
     Inc. Stock Fund) represents 5 percent or more of the Plan's net assets
     available for plan benefits at September 30, 1996.

     Pursuant to the Plan, with the exception of the Company's matching
     contributions, the selection of investment options is the sole
     responsibility of each participant. Neither the trustees nor the Company
     have any responsibility to select investment options or to advise
     participants in selecting their investment options. Subject to the
     applicable provisions of law, each participant assumes all risks connected
     with any decrease in the market value of any securities in these funds, and
     distributions from such funds are the sole source of payments made under
     the Plan.


(4)  EXPENSES

     Brokerage commissions and other expenses incurred in connection with the
     purchase or sale of securities, are charged directly to the Plan. The Plan
     also pays certain administrative expenses that amounted to $13,865, $12,403
     and $7,800 as of September 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Other
     costs and expenses of the Plan are paid for by the Company.


(5)  INVESTMENTS

     Investment income and net realized/unrealized gains (losses) are comprised
     of the following for the years ended September 30, 1996 and 1995
     respectively:

(6)  DIFFERENCES BETWEEN IRS FORM 5500 AND AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     As promulgated by the 1997 AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide, Audits of
     Employee Benefit Plans, benefit claims payable to persons who have
     withdrawn from participating in a defined contribution plan are disclosed
     in the footnotes to the financial statements rather than on the statement
     of net assets available for plan benefits as a liability of the Plan. The
     benefits payable to persons who have withdrawn from participation is
     $44,662 and $43,355 as of September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. IRS
     Form 5500 requires the reporting of benefits payable as a liability to the
     Plan.


(7)  TAX STATUS

     The Plan has adopted a standardized 401(k) plan provided by Smith Barney
     Shearson. This standardized plan has received an opinion letter from the
     IRS dated August 2, 1993, which indicates that the Plan and the related
     trust are designed in accordance with applicable sections of the Internal
     Revenue Code (IRC). The Plan has been amended since receiving the
     determination letter. However, the Plan Administrator believes that the
     Plan is designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the
     applicable requirements of the IRC. Therefore, no provision for income tax
     has been included in the Plan's financial statements.

     Employee salary reduction contributions to the Plan, subject to an annual
     limitation of 15 percent of annual compensation, are not subject to income
     tax until withdrawn from the Plan as permitted under Section 401(k) of the
     IRC. Additionally, employees are not subject to federal income tax on the
     employer's contributions to the Plan or income earned thereon until
     withdrawn from the Plan.
