PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

The following summary is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed
information and the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes
appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus. Prospective investors should also review
carefully the information set forth under "Risk Factors." Unless otherwise
indicated, all information in this Prospectus assumes no exercise of the
Underwriters' over-allotment option.

THE COMPANY

Medirisk is a provider of proprietary database products, decision-support
software and analytical services to the health care industry. The Company's
products and services enable its customers to make objective comparisons of the
financial costs and clinical outcomes of physician services to customer-specific
and industry benchmarks, assess member satisfaction with specific managed care
plans, and obtain information concerning the background and credentials of
physicians. These capabilities assist health care industry participants in
measuring the performance of health care payors and providers and forecasting
the supply of and demand for health care services.

Applications for Medirisk's products include pricing managed care
contracts, evaluating physician fee schedules and utilization of physician
services, comparing provider outcomes and health plan performance, credentialing
and recruiting physicians, developing health care delivery networks, and
marketing health care services. The Company actively sells its products to over
1,000 major customers, including leading health plans, insurers, hospitals,
large multi-specialty physician groups, physician practice management companies,
employers, equipment suppliers and pharmaceutical companies, as well as to
several hundred smaller customers, including single-specialty physician groups.
Medirisk believes that it is the leading provider of clinical and financial
database products comprised of physician-oriented content and managed care
member satisfaction information in the United States.

Medirisk's health care information products and services consist of market
performance, clinical performance and physician credentials products.

- Market Performance Products. Medirisk's market performance products
provide customers with proprietary data and decision-support software
tools for use in analyzing physician fees, health care utilization
patterns and managed care consumer satisfaction in the United States.
The Company's fee and utilization products enable its customers to
analyze health care cost and utilization data, to project health care
demand, and to compare, by procedure and geographic location, pricing
and utilization trends to customer-specific and industry benchmarks. The
Company's managed care member satisfaction products assist managed care
organizations in determining their competitive position, enable
employers to evaluate and select health plans, and assist pharmaceutical
companies in targeting potential markets for their products and
services.

- Clinical Performance Products. Medirisk's clinical performance products
allow customers to measure outcomes across a full range of care within a
variety of medical specialties. The Company's clinical performance
products, proprietary measurement instruments, comparative databases and
reports enable both payors and providers to measure and evaluate
clinical outcomes, improve the quality of clinical care, attract and
retain managed care contracts, and meet accreditation standards.

- Physician Credentials Products. Medirisk provides databases, software
and services designed to enable customers to access detailed information
concerning the background and credentials of physicians in the United
States. The Company's physician credentials products assist customers in
developing and enhancing credentialing and recruiting programs on a
cost-effective basis, establishing health care networks using
physician-specific data, and marketing the provider component of health
care services more effectively.

organizations and other payors. Medirisk believes that the long-standing
relationships under which it collects data and the data interpretation
methodologies used by the Company represent significant competitive advantages.
Medirisk's databases are regularly updated to reflect changes in the industry
and, in the case of its market performance and clinical performance databases,
to take into consideration secondary factors such as co-morbidity, case mix and
demographics. These attributes permit customers to compare objectively their
financial and clinical performance to industry or customer-specific benchmarks
contained in the Company's databases with specificity and precision.

Medirisk's objective is to become the leading provider of proprietary
database products, decision-support software and analytical services to payors,
providers, employers, pharmaceutical companies and other health care industry
participants. To attain this objective, Medirisk is pursuing the following
strategy: (i) leverage the Company's existing customer base to cross-sell
additional products; (ii) emphasize recurring revenue from existing products and
customers; (iii) develop new database products and decision-support tools; and
(iv) acquire and integrate complementary products and businesses. To capitalize
on the fragmentation in the health care information industry and to support its
acquisition strategy, Medirisk has corporate resources dedicated to identifying,
analyzing and pursuing appropriate acquisition candidates. The Company currently
is tracking a database of more than 300 companies, of which more than 100
currently meet Medirisk's primary acquisition criteria for product type, revenue
and customer base.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Following the completion of its initial public offering in January 1997,
Medirisk significantly expanded its operations by acquiring four companies in
1997 (the "1997 Acquisitions") and one company in 1998. The acquisition of
businesses with complementary products and services has broadened the Company's
customer base, created additional cross-selling opportunities, increased market
share within existing products and resulted in new product extensions and
enhancements. The following summarizes these recent acquisitions.

- In May 1997, Medirisk acquired substantially all of the assets of
Staff-Link, Inc. ("Staff-Link") of St. Louis, Missouri, a provider of
physician databases and related software utilities designed to assist
health care organizations with their in-house recruiting efforts.
Staff-Link's customer base increased the market share of the Company's
physician credentials products, and the integration of Staff-Link's
database of physicians in private practice, the military and the public
health sector enhanced the Company's physician credentials product line.

- In June 1997, Medirisk acquired CIVS, Inc. ("CIVS") of Rockville,
Maryland, a leading national provider of physician credentialing
services and information products to health care organizations. The
acquisition of CIVS added new customers to the Company's physician
credentials product line and broadened the range of products and
outsourced services offered by the Company.

- In August 1997, Medirisk acquired CareData Reports, Inc. ("CareData") of
New York, New York, which creates reports analyzing consumer
satisfaction with more than 150 aspects of managed health care plans and
ranks specific health plans accordingly. CareData's products are used by
managed care plans to assess their competitive position and quality of
care, by employers to evaluate health plans and by pharmaceutical
companies to target potential markets for their products.

- In November 1997, Medirisk acquired Medsource, Inc. ("Medsource") of St.
Paul, Minnesota, which licenses databases of physician information for
use in recruiting physicians and developing health care networks. The
acquisition strengthened the Company's physician credentials products
and extended the application of these products to the administrative and
marketing functions of health care organizations.

- In March 1998, Medirisk acquired Healthdemographics of San Diego,
California, which provides databases and decision-support applications
to forecast the supply of and demand for health care services. Health
care delivery organizations, insurers, equipment suppliers, consultants
and other health care industry participants use the proprietary
demographic and market segmentation information and software provided by
Healthdemographics to make more informed business decisions regarding
strategic planning and market planning and analysis. The acquisition of
Healthdemographics resulted in an expansion of the Company's market
performance products and customer base.

(1) Gives effect to the Company's acquisitions of CIVS, which occurred on June
23, 1997, CareData, which occurred on August 29, 1997, and
Healthdemographics, which occurred on March 31, 1998, as if each transaction
had occurred on January 1, 1997 and excludes associated non-recurring
charges related to acquired in-process research and development costs and
integration costs. The pro forma effect of the other 1997 Acquisitions is
not significant. As a result of the 1997 Acquisitions and the acquisition of
Healthdemographics, the Company's historical statements of operations are
not representative of financial results to be expected for future periods.
See the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on April 13, 1998.
(2) In connection with the 1997 Acquisitions, the Company recorded non-recurring
charges related to acquired in-process research and development costs and
integration costs. Excluding these charges and the extraordinary item,
operating income, net income and net income per share of common
stock -- diluted for the year ended December 31, 1997 would have been $3.2
million, $2.1 million and $0.45, respectively. See "Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," Note 2 of
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and the Company's
Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on April 13, 1998.
(3) As a result of the application of a portion of the net proceeds of the
Company's initial public offering to repay indebtedness, the Company
incurred a one-time, non-recurring, non-cash charge of $806,146 with respect
to accelerated amortization of original issue discount on certain senior
subordinated notes and related deferred financing costs. Due to the
Company's losses, no income tax benefit was applied to the extraordinary
loss presented. See Note 5 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of
the Company.

Statements of the Company.

(5) Gives effect to (i) the Company's acquisition of Healthdemographics, which
occurred on March 31, 1998, and the related borrowings of approximately $2.4
million to finance such acquisition as if the transactions occurred on
December 31, 1997 and (ii) approximately $3.0 million in contingent
consideration payable in connection with the CareData acquisition expected
to be paid in April 1998..
(6) Gives effect to the exercise by a Selling Stockholder of warrants to
purchase 97,440 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.54 per
share and the sale of the shares of Common Stock offered by the Company at
an assumed public offering price of $21.75 per share and the receipt and
application of the net proceeds from such sale as described in "Use of
Proceeds."

RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information in this Prospectus, the following risk
factors should be considered carefully in evaluating the Company and its
business before purchasing the shares of Common Stock. This Prospectus contains
certain forward-looking statements which involve risks and uncertainties. The
Company's actual results could differ materially from the results anticipated in
these forward-looking statements as a result of the risk factors set forth below
and other factors described elsewhere in this Prospectus.

HISTORY OF OPERATING LOSSES; UNCERTAIN PROFITABILITY

The Company incurred net losses in the years ended December 31, 1995, 1996
and 1997 and had an accumulated deficit at December 31, 1997 of approximately
$12.4 million. In view of the Company's prior operating history, there can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to achieve profitability on a quarterly
or annual basis or that it will be able to sustain or increase its revenue
growth in future periods. Furthermore, in applying the provisions of Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 ("SFAS 109") to the Company,
particularly considering the Company's history of net losses, the Company was
unable to support a conclusion that it is more likely than not that its deferred
tax assets will be realized for purposes of SFAS 109. As a result, the Company
has provided a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets. See
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" and Note 7 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the
Company.

RISKS RELATED TO GROWTH

The Company's strategy is to grow aggressively, both internally and through
acquisitions. This strategy is likely to place significant demands on the
Company's financial, operational and management resources, and to expose the
Company to a variety of risks, including the risk that the Company will be
unable to retain the personnel or obtain the financial and other resources
necessary to pursue and manage such growth. The Company's growth has resulted in
an increase in the level of responsibility for the Company's key personnel.
Expenses arising from the Company's efforts to complete acquisitions, develop
new products or increase its existing market penetration could have an adverse
impact on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.
Furthermore, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
identify, acquire or integrate acquisition candidates successfully or to manage
profitably any additional products and services resulting from such
acquisitions. Acquired businesses, products and services may not contribute to
the Company's overall strategy or produce returns that justify the related
investment or implementation by the Company. In addition, the Company's growth
may involve the acquisition of companies or the development of products or
services in areas in which the Company does not currently operate. Such
acquisition or development may require the Company's management to develop
expertise in new areas and to attract a new customer base, and could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations or
financial condition. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
implement its growth strategy successfully or, if successful in consummating
acquisitions, to manage its expanded operations effectively and profitably. See
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations," "Business -- Strategy" and "Management."

RISKS OF INTEGRATION OF ACQUIRED OPERATIONS

The process of integrating management services, administrative
organizations, facilities, management information systems and other operational
aspects of acquired businesses, products or services can be time consuming and
costly, and may distract management from day-to-day operations. The difficulties
of integration may be increased by challenges in coordinating geographically
separated organizations, integrating personnel with disparate business
backgrounds and combining different corporate cultures. If Medirisk is to
realize the anticipated benefits of past and future acquisitions, the operations
of the acquired entities must be combined and integrated successfully. There can
be no assurance that the Company's integration processes will be successful or
that the anticipated benefits of any past or future acquisitions will be
realized. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that there will not be
substantial unanticipated costs or liabilities, or other material adverse
effects associated with past or future acquisitions and integration activities
conducted by the Company. See "Manage-
8
<PAGE> 10

ment's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations"
and "Business -- Acquisitions."

DEPENDENCE ON DATA SOURCES AND AMA LICENSES

The Company incorporates the Physicians' Current Procedural Terminology
("CPT") codes of the American Medical Association (the "AMA") into certain of
its market performance products under a non-exclusive five-year license with the
AMA that expires in February 2000. The CPT code system is considered to be the
current industry standard for identifying physician procedures, and the loss or
non-renewal of the AMA CPT code license would have a material adverse effect on
the Company's business, results of operations or financial condition. The
Company also supplements its physician credentials product line with information
from the AMA under a separate exclusive three-year license agreement with the
AMA that expires in December 1998. The Company is engaged in discussions with
respect to the extension of this agreement, but no assurances can be given that
any such extension will be obtained. Pursuant to this license, the Company
obtains information concerning practicing physicians who may be seeking
positions, which information would be difficult and expensive to obtain from
alternative sources. In addition, the Company relies in large part on data from
outside payor, provider and other sources to develop its proprietary products,
including acquired data and data received from customers under the Company's
data collection program. In general, the Company's data sources are not subject
to exclusive agreements with the Company; therefore, data included in the
Company's data products may also be included in data products of the Company's
competitors. There can be no assurance that the Company's sources will continue
to provide data in the future. If any of the Company's sources of data becomes
unavailable, there can be no assurance that alternative sources of data would be
available or that the Company could purchase such data in a cost-efficient
manner.

DEPENDENCE ON INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS

The Company does not own any patents or federally-registered copyrights
relating to its databases or software applications. The Company relies largely
on copyright law, its license agreements with customers and its own security
systems, confidentiality procedures and employee non-disclosure agreements to
maintain the confidentiality and trade secrecy of its proprietary procedures and
resources. Policing unauthorized use and piracy of the Company's products is
difficult. The Company is aware that from time to time there have been limited
breaches of the confidentiality provisions of customers' agreements with the
Company, and there can be no assurance that the precautions taken by the Company
will be adequate to prevent further breaches or misappropriation of the
Company's proprietary information. In addition, the Company cannot prevent the
independent development or implementation of functionally equivalent or superior
systems, products or methodologies. The misappropriation of the Company's
information or independent development of similar products may have a material
adverse effect on the Company's competitive position. Furthermore, there can be
no assurance that third parties will not assert infringement claims against the
Company or that a license or similar agreement will be available on reasonable
terms in the event of an unfavorable ruling on any such claim.

RISK RELATED TO INTANGIBLE ASSETS; ACQUISITION OF IN-PROCESS RESEARCH AND
DEVELOPMENT

Largely as a result of the Company's various acquisitions, Medirisk has
recorded approximately $10.4 million in intangible assets net of accumulated
amortization as of December 31, 1997. Such intangible assets are being amortized
over periods of five or 15 years. The Company expects the amount allocable to
intangible assets on its balance sheet to increase in connection with future
acquisitions, resulting in increases in the Company's amortization expense. In
the event of any sale or liquidation of the Company or a portion of its assets,
there can be no assurance that the value of the Company's intangible assets will
be realized. In addition, the Company regularly evaluates whether events and
circumstances have occurred indicating that any portion of the remaining balance
of amounts allocable to the Company's intangible assets may not be recoverable.
If factors indicate that the carrying value of the Company's intangible assets
has been impaired, the Company would be required to reduce the carrying value of
such assets. Any future determination requiring the write-off of a significant
portion of the unamortized intangible assets could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's

9
<PAGE> 11

business, results of operations or financial condition. See Notes 1 and 2 of
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company.

In connection with many of its acquisitions, the Company has recorded
non-recurring charges related to in-process research and development costs. The
amount of each of these non-recurring charges is equal to the estimated current
fair value of specifically identified technologies for which technological
feasibility has not yet been established pursuant to Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 86, "Accounting for Costs of Computer Software to be
Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed" and for which future alternative uses did
not exist at the time of acquisition. Similar charges could result in the future
as a result of additional acquisitions accounted for as purchases. See
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations."

UNCERTAINTY AND CONSOLIDATION IN THE HEALTH CARE INDUSTRY

The health care industry is subject to changing political, economic and
regulatory influences that may affect the procurement practices and operation of
health care providers, payors and other industry participants. The Company's
products and services are designed to function within the current structure of
the U.S. health care system; therefore, the commercial value of the Company's
products could be adversely affected if there were material changes in the
current U.S. health care system. Many federal and state legislators have
announced that they intend to propose programs to reform the U.S. health care
system at both the federal and state levels. These programs may contain
proposals to increase governmental involvement in health care, lower
reimbursement rates and otherwise change health care delivery and payment
systems. Participants in the health care market may react to these proposals and
the uncertainty surrounding such proposals by curtailing or deferring
investments, including investments in the Company's products and services. In
addition, in response to this changing environment, many market participants are
consolidating to create larger health care delivery organizations. This
consolidation reduces the number of potential customers for the Company and may
increase the bargaining power of these organizations, which could lead to
reduced prices for Medirisk's products and services. The impact of these
developments on the health care industry is difficult to predict and could have
a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations or
financial condition.

RISKS OF RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE

The health care information market is characterized by rapid technological
change, changing customer needs and evolving industry standards. The Company
believes that as the market for its current products matures, its future success
will depend on its ability to enhance its current products and to develop or
acquire and introduce new products to keep pace with technological developments
and emerging industry standards. In addition, the introduction of competing
products embodying new technologies and the emergence of new industry standards
could render the Company's existing products non-competitive or obsolete.
Accordingly, the Company anticipates that significant amounts of future revenue
may be derived from products and product enhancements that do not exist today or
have not been sold in sufficient quantities to measure accurately market
acceptance. There can be no assurance that the Company will not experience
difficulties that could delay or prevent the successful development and
introduction of product enhancements or new products, or that such enhancements
or new products will adequately meet the requirements of the marketplace or
achieve market acceptance. Any failure by the Company to develop and introduce
product enhancements and new products in a timely and cost-efficient manner in
response to changing market conditions or customer requirements could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations or
financial condition.

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ("HIPAA")
added provisions to the Social Security Act governing the electronic
transmission of health information. HIPAA requires the Secretary of the United
States Department of Health and Human Services (the "Secretary") to adopt
national standards for health information transactions and the data elements
used in such transactions. These standards will apply to health plans, health
care claims clearinghouses, and health care providers who transmit any health
information in electronic form in connection with the specified transactions. In
addition, the Secretary is required to adopt safeguards to ensure the integrity
and confidentiality of health information. Violation of the standards is
punishable by fines and, in the case of wrongful disclosure of individually
identifiable health information,
10
<PAGE> 12

imprisonment. The Secretary was required by HIPAA to issue the standards not
later than February 21, 1998. The Secretary has stated that part of the
standards will be published in April 1998; however, no standards have been
issued at this time. Further, HIPAA requires the Secretary to adopt standards
addressing the privacy of individually identifiable health information by the
year 2000, if Congress has not enacted privacy legislation governing these
standards by August 1999. A number of states are also considering the adoption
of rules to protect the privacy of patient records. Any of these requirements,
if adopted, may substantially affect the means used by the Company to collect
data. Such requirements, if adopted, could have a material adverse effect on the
availability of data to the Company or on the Company's use of data. See
"Business -- Products and Services."

NEED FOR ADDITIONAL FINANCING

Implementation of the Company's growth strategy will require significant
capital resources. Capital is needed for both internal growth and the
acquisition and integration of new businesses, products and services. In
addition, many of the Company's acquisition agreements provide for the payment
of contingent consideration based on the performance of the acquired business.
If such acquired businesses exceed the relevant performance goals, the Company
will be required to make additional payments, which could be material. If the
Company does not have sufficient cash resources or if the Common Stock is not
attractive to target businesses, the Company's growth could be limited and its
existing operations impaired, unless it is able to obtain additional capital
through debt or equity financings. Any debt financings could result in the
imposition on the Company of operational or financial restrictions. Any equity
financings could result in dilution to holders of Common Stock. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to obtain financing in the future or
that, if available, such financing will be on terms acceptable to the Company.
See "Use of Proceeds" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations -- Liquidity and Capital Resources."

COMPETITION

The health care information market is intensely competitive and rapidly
changing. The Company believes that the principal competitive factors in its
target markets include the breadth and quality of database and applications
offerings, access to proprietary data, the proprietary nature of methodologies
and technical resources, price, and the effectiveness of marketing and sales
efforts. In each of its target markets, the Company competes with various
competitors, which vary in size, scope and breadth of product and service
offerings. In addition, other information companies not presently offering
health care information services competitive with the Company's products and
services may enter the markets in which the Company competes. Many of the
Company's competitors have, and many of its potential competitors may have,
significantly greater financial, technical, product development and marketing
resources than the Company. The Company also competes with the internal
information resources and systems of certain of its prospective and existing
customers. There can be no assurance that competitive pressures will not have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations or
financial condition. See "Business -- Competition."

RISKS OF CUSTOMER CONCENTRATION

The Company derives a substantial portion of its revenue from clinical
performance products provided to HEALTHSOUTH Corporation ("HEALTHSOUTH") under a
three-year contract, the current term of which expires in December 2000.
HEALTHSOUTH accounted for approximately 16% of the Company's revenues for fiscal
1997 (13% of revenues on a pro forma basis giving effect to the acquisitions of
CIVS, CareData and Healthdemographics as if such transactions had occurred on
January 1, 1997). The loss of, or a significant decrease in, business from
HEALTHSOUTH could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
results of operations and financial condition. See Note 9 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company.

POTENTIAL FOR SYSTEM DEFECTS

The information products offered by the Company may contain undetected
errors or failures. Any such errors or failures could result in a loss of, or
delay in, market acceptance of the product and in claims against the Company.
The Company also depends on the accuracy of the data received from its data
sources. If a statistically
11
<PAGE> 13

significant number of medical records, transactions or physician profiles were
found to have been altered or incorrectly entered, or otherwise contain flawed
data, there could be a loss of, or delay in, market acceptance of the product
and possible claims against the Company. Any of the foregoing results could have
a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations or
financial condition.

DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL

The Company depends on the services of Mark A. Kaiser, its Chairman of the
Board, Chief Executive Officer and President, Kenneth M. Goins, Jr., its
Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, and on certain other
officers and key personnel. The Company's growth and success will depend in
large part on its ability to attract, motivate and retain qualified management,
technical, sales and marketing personnel. Competition for such personnel is
intense. The loss of the services of one or more of the Company's key personnel
or the inability to attract and retain qualified personnel could have a material
adverse effect on the Company. See "Management."

VARIABLE QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS; SEASONALITY

The Company's quarterly revenue and operating results have varied
significantly in the past and are likely to vary substantially from quarter to
quarter in the future. Quarterly results may fluctuate as a result of a variety
of factors including, but not limited to, the Company's sales cycle; demand for
the Company's products; the timing of significant new customer contracts; the
non-renewal of significant customer contracts; the timing of acquisitions;
competitive conditions in the industry; changes in customer budgets; and general
economic factors. Furthermore, the Company has experienced a seasonal pattern in
its operating results, with a greater proportion of the Company's revenue and
more favorable operating margins occurring in the second half of the year.
Accordingly, results of operations for any particular quarter may not be
indicative of results of operations for future periods. Additionally, a
significant portion of the Company's expenses are relatively fixed, and the
amount and timing of increases in such expenses are based in large part on the
Company's expectations concerning future revenue. If revenue is below
expectations in any given quarter, the adverse effect may be magnified by the
Company's inability to adjust spending quickly enough to compensate for the
revenue shortfall. Accordingly, even a small variation from expected revenue
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's operating results and
financial condition for a given quarter. Fluctuations in the Company's revenue
and operating results could have a material adverse effect on the market price
for the Common Stock. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations."

POSSIBLE VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE

The market price of the Common Stock has been, and could in the future be,
subject to fluctuations in response to a variety of events, including
quarter-to-quarter variations in operating results, news announcements, trading
volume, general market trends, new statutes, regulations or changes in the
interpretation of existing statutes affecting the health care industry, and
other factors. Additionally, the stock market recently has experienced
substantial price and volume volatility. As a result, market prices for the
stock of many companies have experienced wide fluctuations, which have not
necessarily been related to their operating performance. These broad market
fluctuations could have a material adverse effect on the market price of the
Common Stock.

POTENTIAL ADVERSE EFFECTS OF SUBSTANTIAL NUMBER OF SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE
SALE

Future sales by holders of substantial amounts of Common Stock could
adversely affect the prevailing market price of the Common Stock. The number of
shares of Common Stock available for sale in the public market is limited by
restrictions under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
Act"), and lock-up agreements under which certain stockholders of the Company
holding in the aggregate 889,267 shares of Common Stock upon consummation of the
Offering (plus up to 247,922 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise
of currently exercisable stock options and warrants), including each of the
Company's executive officers, directors, the Selling Stockholders and certain
other stockholders, have agreed, subject to certain limited exceptions, that
they will not directly or indirectly, offer, pledge, sell, offer to sell,
contract to sell or grant any option to purchase or otherwise sell or dispose
(or announce any offer, pledge, offer of sale, contract of sale, grant
12
<PAGE> 14

of any option or other sale or disposition) of any shares of Common Stock or
other capital stock or securities exchangeable or exercisable for, or
convertible into, shares of Common Stock or other capital stock for a period of
120 days after the date of this prospectus (the "Lock-Up Period"), without the
prior written consent of SunTrust Equitable Securities. Based on the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding on April 9, 1998, after completion of the
Offering, the Company will have 7,011,557 shares of Common Stock outstanding. Of
these shares, in addition to the 2,500,000 shares offered hereby plus any
additional shares sold upon exercise of the Underwriters' over-allotment option,
3,459,853 shares of Common Stock held by existing stockholders (plus up to
485,541 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of currently
exercisable options and warrants) will be eligible for immediate sale without
restriction. At the end of the Lock-Up Period, subject to the volume limitations
imposed by Rule 144 ("Rule 144") under the Securities Act, an additional
1,068,809 shares of Common Stock (plus up to 150,482 shares of Common Stock
issuable upon the exercise of currently exercisable options and warrants) will
be eligible for immediate sale without restriction. The remaining 316,905 shares
of Common Stock held by existing stockholders (plus up to 97,440 shares of
Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of currently exercisable options and
warrants) will become eligible for sale at various times pursuant to Rule 144.
See "Management," and "Principal and Selling Stockholders."

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

Both the Company's internal operations and products use a significant
number of computer software programs and operating systems. Given the
information known at this time about the Company's systems and products, coupled
with the Company's ongoing efforts to upgrade or maintain systems and products,
as necessary, the Company does not anticipate that the year 2000 issue or
related costs will have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
results of operations or financial condition. However, the Company is still
analyzing its databases and software applications and those utilized by key
suppliers, and to the extent they are not fully year 2000 compliant, there can
be no assurance that the costs necessary to update databases or software or
potential systems interruptions would not have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, results of operations or financial condition. See
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations -- Year 2000 Compliance."

ADVERSE IMPACT OF ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS

Certain provisions of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws
and of Delaware law could have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a
change of control involving the Company. Specifically, the Company's Certificate
of Incorporation, as amended, provides for the issuance of up to 995,000 shares
of preferred stock with such rights and preferences as may be determined by the
Board of Directors. Such shares may be issued without further stockholder
approval in circumstances that could have the effect of preventing or delaying a
change of control. The Company's Board of Directors is classified into three
classes, with each class of directors having a staggered three year term. The
Company's Bylaws prohibit action by the shareholders through written consent and
restrict the ability of stockholders to call stockholder meetings and propose
action at meetings. Finally, Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law
restricts transactions between the Company and any "interested stockholders" (as
defined). These provisions could reduce or eliminate any takeover premium in the
market price for the Common Stock or otherwise limit the price certain investors
might be willing to pay for the Common Stock.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH UNSPECIFIED USE OF PROCEEDS

A substantial portion of the net proceeds of the Offering available to the
Company will be utilized for general corporate purposes, including potential
future acquisitions of complementary businesses and the development of
additional products and services. The Company's management, subject to approval
by the Board of Directors, will have absolute discretion with respect to the use
of such proceeds of the Offering. See "Use of Proceeds."

13
<PAGE> 15

USE OF PROCEEDS

The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the 2,250,000 shares of
Common Stock offered by the Company, at an assumed public offering price of
$21.75 per share, are estimated to be approximately $45.5 million after
deducting estimated underwriting discounts and offering expenses payable by the
Company (or approximately $50.3 million if the Underwriters' overallotment
option is exercised in full). The Company will not receive any proceeds from the
sale of Common Stock by the Selling Stockholders.

Of such net proceeds, the Company intends to use approximately $2.4 million
to repay borrowings under its revolving credit facility with NationsBank, N.A.
(the "NationsBank Revolver"). The Company anticipates that the remaining net
proceeds will be used principally for general corporate purposes, including
potential future acquisitions of complementary businesses or products in the
health care information industry, the payment of contingent consideration with
respect to acquisitions (including an estimated $3.0 million for the acquisition
of CareData that will be paid soon after the consummation of the Offering), and
for the development of additional products and services. Although the Company
continually seeks suitable acquisition candidates with complementary businesses,
products and services in the health care information industry, it is not
currently a party to any definitive agreement or letter of intent regarding any
acquisition. As a result, the Company cannot precisely determine the timing or
relative size of any potential acquisition. Pending the application of the net
proceeds as described above, the Company intends to invest the net proceeds in
short-term, interest-bearing, investment-grade securities.

Amounts outstanding under the NationsBank Revolver were incurred in March
1998 to fund the cash portion of the purchase price of Healthdemographics. The
NationsBank Revolver is a $10.0 million revolving credit facility available to
the Company under a Credit Agreement. The NationsBank Revolver bears interest at
varying rates based on LIBOR and NationsBank's prime rate and will mature on
March 28, 1999. Current borrowings under the NationsBank Revolver bear interest
at the rate of 8.5%. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations -- Liquidity and Capital Resources" and Note
4 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company.

DIVIDEND POLICY

It is the policy of the Company's Board of Directors to retain earnings to
support operations and to finance the continued growth of the Company. Payments
of future dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of the Company's Board of
Directors. The NationsBank Revolver contains restrictions on the payment of
dividends. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations -- Liquidity and Capital Resources" and Note 4 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company.

CAPITALIZATION

The following table sets forth as of December 31, 1997, (i) the
capitalization of the Company; (ii) the pro forma capitalization of the Company
giving effect to the acquisition of Healthdemographics and the related
borrowings to finance such acquisition as if they had occurred on December 31,
1997; and (iii) the pro forma capitalization of the Company as adjusted to give
effect to the sale of the 2,250,000 shares of Common Stock offered by the
Company at an assumed public offering price of $21.75 per share and the
application of the net proceeds by the Company as described in "Use of
Proceeds," and the exercise by a Selling Stockholder of outstanding warrants to
purchase an aggregate of 97,440 shares of Common Stock at a price of $1.54 per
share immediately prior to the consummation of the Offering. This table should
be read in conjunction with the more detailed information and Consolidated
Financial Statements and accompanying Notes appearing elsewhere in this
Prospectus.

DILUTION

The pro forma net tangible book value (deficit) of the Company as of
December 31, 1997 was approximately $(783,000) or $(0.18) per share. Pro forma
net tangible book value (deficit) is determined by dividing net tangible book
value (total tangible assets less total liabilities) of the Company by the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, giving pro forma effect to the
acquisition of Healthdemographics as if it occurred on December 31, 1997.
Without taking into account any changes in the pro forma net tangible book value
after December 31, 1997, other than to give effect to the sale of the 2,250,000
shares of Common Stock and the application of the net proceeds to the Company
and the exercise by a Selling Stockholder of outstanding warrants to purchase an
aggregate of 97,440 shares of Common Stock at a price of $1.54 per share
immediately prior to the consummation of the Offering, the adjusted net tangible
book value of the Company as of December 31, 1997, would have been approximately
$44.9 million, or $6.69 per share. This represents immediate dilution in net
tangible book value of $15.06 per share to new investors purchasing shares in
the Offering and an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $6.87 per
share to existing stockholders. This table should be read in conjunction with

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the more
detailed information and consolidated financial statements and accompanying
notes, as well as the other financial information appearing elsewhere in this
Prospectus. Except for historical information, the following discussion contains
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The Company's
actual results could differ materially from those discussed herein. Factors that
could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to,
those discussed in "Risk Factors," as well as those discussed elsewhere in this
Prospectus.

OVERVIEW

Applications of Medirisk's products include pricing managed care contracts,
evaluating physician fee schedules and utilization of physician services,
comparing provider outcomes and health plan performance, credentialing and
recruiting physicians, developing health care delivery networks, and marketing
health care services. The Company actively sells its products to over 1,000
major customers, including leading health plans, insurers, hospitals, large
multi-specialty physician groups, physician practice management companies,
employers, equipment suppliers and pharmaceutical companies, as well as several
hundred smaller customers, including single-specialty physician groups. Medirisk
believes that it is the leading provider of clinical and financial database
products comprised of physician-oriented content and managed care member
satisfaction information in the United States.

ACQUISITIONS

Following the completion of its initial public offering in January 1997,
Medirisk significantly expanded its operations by acquiring five companies. The
acquisition of businesses with complementary products and services has broadened
the Company's customer base, created additional cross-selling opportunities,
increased market share within existing products and resulted in new product
extensions and enhancements. The following summarizes these recent transactions.

- In May 1997, Medirisk acquired substantially all of the assets of
Staff-Link of St. Louis, Missouri, a provider of a physician database
and related software utilities designed to assist health care
organizations with their in-house recruiting efforts. Staff-Link's
customer base increased the market share of the Company's physician
credentials products.

- In June 1997, Medirisk acquired CIVS of Rockville, Maryland, a leading
national provider of physician credentialing services and information
products to health care organizations. The acquisition of CIVS added new
customers to the Company's physician credentials product line and
broadened the range of products and outsourced services offered by the
Company.

- In August 1997, Medirisk acquired CareData of New York, New York, which
creates reports analyzing consumer satisfaction with more than 150
aspects of managed health care plans and ranks specific health plans
accordingly. CareData's products are used by managed care plans to
assess their competitive position and quality of care, by employers to
evaluate health plans and by pharmaceutical companies to target
potential markets for their products.

- In November 1997, Medirisk acquired Medsource of St. Paul, Minnesota,
which licenses databases of physician information for use in recruiting
physicians and developing health care networks. The

18

acquisition strengthened the Company's physician credentials product
line and extended the application of these products to the
administrative and the marketing functions of health care organizations.

In connection with these acquisitions, the Company acquired intangible
assets which are being amortized over various useful lives. The amortization
periods are based on, among other things, the nature of the products and
markets, the competitive position of the acquired companies and the adaptability
to changing market conditions of the acquired companies. The Company recorded
amortization expense related to the 1997 Acquisitions of $300,000 for the year
ended December 31, 1997.

Also in connection with the 1997 Acquisitions, the Company recorded
non-recurring charges related to in-process research and development costs of
$3.1 million for CIVS, $975,000 for CareData and $300,000 for Medsource. The
amount of each of these non-recurring charges was equal to the estimated current
fair value, based on the adjusted cash flows (discounted by a risk-adjusted
weighted average cost of capital of 24% for CIVS and CareData and 29% for
Medsource), of specifically identified technologies for which technological
feasibility had not yet been established pursuant to Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 86, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to
be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed" and for which future alternative uses did
not exist. Similar charges could result in the future as a result of additional
acquisitions accounted for as purchases. The Company incurred approximately
$200,000 of integration costs during 1997 for the 1997 Acquisitions.

In connection with the acquisition of Healthdemographics, the Company will
record a non-recurring charge related to in-process research and development
costs, which is estimated to be approximately $5.3 million in the first quarter
of 1998, and estimated charges of approximately $400,000 during 1998 for
integration costs.

As a result of the 1997 Acquisitions and the acquisition of
Healthdemographics, the Company's historical financial statements are not
representative of financial results to be expected for future periods. See Note
2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company.

SOURCES OF REVENUE

The Company provides services and licenses its products primarily pursuant
to single- and multi-year contracts that provide for the payment of
non-refundable annual fees, often in advance of use or shipment, or of quarterly
fees that are generally billed in advance of service delivery. The products are
segregated into three types: market performance, clinical performance and
physician credentials products. The market performance products provide
customers with information from the Company's market performance product
databases. Revenue on these sales is recognized upon the delivery of the data.
The Company also licenses the exclusive right to market the results of its
managed care consumer satisfaction surveys. Revenue from the licenses of
disease-specific customized surveys to the pharmaceutical industry is recognized
as the related costs of producing the survey are incurred, and revenue from
non-customized data licensing is recognized upon delivery. The clinical
performance products revenues relate to the delivery of services and are
recognized over the contract terms as the services are provided. The physician
credentials products consist of (i) data and services provided to customers over
time, for which revenue is recognized ratably over the life of the contract, and
(ii) credentials reports that validate physicians' education, training and other
matters, for which revenue is recognized upon delivery of the completed reports.
Customer service revenues are recognized ratably over the service contract
period. All other revenue, including fees for training, consulting fees, and
other miscellaneous services, is recognized upon the performance of the
applicable services.

19
<PAGE> 21

The Company's revenue is composed of both recurring revenue from the
Company's current customer base as well as revenue from new customers. The
Company defines its recurring revenue percentage with respect to any particular
period as the quotient, expressed as a percentage, of (i) revenue recognized
during such period from a sale of a product to a customer who purchased a
similar product in the prior period divided by (ii) the Company's total revenue
in the prior period. In determining its recurring revenue percentage, the
Company includes in its revenue the revenue of entities acquired during the
period as if such acquisitions had occurred at the beginning of the prior
period. The Company does not include revenue in its recurring revenue percentage
to the extent that such revenue exceeds total revenue in the prior period. The
Company's recurring revenue percentage has been in excess of 70% for each of the
last four years.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996

Revenue. Revenue in 1997 was $16.7 million, an increase of $7.8 million or
88% over 1996. The increase was primarily attributable to the acquisitions of
CIVS and CareData, effective in June 1997 and August 1997, respectively. Revenue
recognized by CIVS, CareData and the other 1997 Acquisitions represented
approximately $4.7 million, or 60% of the total increase. The Company's revenue
without the impact of the revenue from the 1997 Acquisitions increased 35% for
1997 over 1996 as a result of a combination of factors, including the revenue of
a company acquired in March 1996 whose revenues were not included in the
Company's revenues for the entire year in 1996, increases in the volume of
products licensed and revenue attributable to an increase in the Company's sales
and marketing personnel. The volume increase was principally attributable to
licenses to new and existing customers for existing products and product
extensions.

Salaries, wages and benefits. Salaries, wages and benefits in 1997 were
$7.9 million, an increase of $1.8 million or 30% over 1996. This increase was
primarily the result of the acquisitions of CIVS and CareData and growth in the
revenues of the Company's other business units. Salaries, wages and benefits
decreased as a percentage of revenue during 1997 to 47% as compared to 68% in
1996. This decrease resulted primarily from leveraging the Company's existing
administrative, sales and marketing personnel as revenue increased through both
acquisitions and internal growth.

Other operating expenses. Other operating expenses in 1997 were $4.4
million, an increase of $2.1 million or 89% over 1996, principally as a result
of the acquisitions of CIVS and CareData. Other operating expenses remained
generally consistent at approximately 26% of revenue in 1997 and 1996.

20
<PAGE> 22

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization in 1997 was
$1.3 million, an increase of $517,306 or 66% over 1996. This increase resulted
primarily from the 1997 Acquisitions. As a percentage of revenue, depreciation
and amortization for 1997 and 1996 was 8% and 9%, respectively.

Acquired in-process research and development costs and integration
costs. In connection with the 1997 Acquisitions, the Company acquired the
ongoing research and development activities of each entity and incurred certain
integration expenses. At the effective date of each acquisition the Company
recorded non-recurring charges resulting from expensing acquired in-process
research and development costs. In 1997, the acquired in-process research and
development costs and integration costs totaled $4.6 million, or 27% of revenue.

Interest income (expense), net. Net interest income in 1997 was $344,973,
an increase of $1.0 million over 1996. The increase was a result of the
extinguishment of debt with the proceeds of the Company's initial public
offering and the interest income earned on the net proceeds of that offering.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995

Revenue. Revenue in 1996 was $8.9 million, an increase of $5.2 million or
144% over 1995. The increase was primarily attributable to the acquisitions of
Formations in Health Care, Inc. ("Formations") and PracticeMatch, Inc.
("PracticeMatch") effective in January and March 1996, respectively. Revenue
recognized by these acquired companies represented approximately $4.9 million,
or 93% of the total increase. The Company's revenue without the impact of the
revenue from the acquired companies increased 9% for 1996 over 1995 as a result
of a combination of factors, including increases in the volume of financial
products licensed and revenue attributable to an increase in the Company's sales
and marketing personnel. The volume increase was principally attributable to
licenses to new and existing customers as a result of product enhancements and
extensions.

Salaries, wages and benefits. Salaries, wages and benefits in 1996 were
$6.1 million, an increase of $3.5 million or 136% over 1995. This increase was
primarily the result of the acquisitions of Formations and PracticeMatch and, to
a lesser extent, growth in the Company's administrative, sales and marketing
infrastructure. Salaries, wages and benefits decreased as a percentage of
revenue in 1996 to 69% as compared to 71% in 1995. This decrease resulted
primarily from leveraging the Company's administrative, sales and marketing
personnel as revenue increased through both acquisitions and internal growth.

Other operating expenses. Other operating expenses in 1996 were $2.3
million, an increase of $1.4 or 142% over 1995, principally as a result of the
acquisition of Formations and PracticeMatch. Other operating expenses remained
constant at approximately 26% of revenue in 1996 and in 1995.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization in 1996 was
$786,849, an increase of $593,450 or 307% over 1995. This increase resulted from
the acquisitions of Formations and PracticeMatch. As a percentage of revenue,
depreciation and amortization for 1996 and 1995 was 9% and 5%, respectively.

Acquired in-process research and development costs. In connection with the
acquisition of Formations and PracticeMatch, the Company acquired the ongoing
research and development activities of each entity. At the effective date of
each acquisition the Company recorded non-recurring charges resulting from
expensing acquired in-process research and development costs. These charges
totaled $6.2 million, or 69% of revenue, in 1996.

Interest income (expense), net. Net interest expense in 1996 was $703,542,
an increase of $638,109 or 975% over 1995. The increase was a result of interest
due on senior subordinated notes issued during 1996 to finance the acquisition
of PracticeMatch as well as interest expense on the acquisition notes issued to
the sellers of PracticeMatch.

</TABLE>

The Company's quarterly revenues and operating results have varied
significantly in the past. Quarterly results have fluctuated as a result of a
variety of factors including but not limited to the following: the Company's
sales cycle; staffing changes in the Company's sales and marketing organization;
changes in the Company's resources; demand for the Company's products; the
timing of significant new customer contracts; the non-renewal of significant
customer contracts; the timing of acquisitions; competitive conditions in the
industry; changes in customer budgets; and general economic factors.
Furthermore, the Company has experienced a seasonal pattern in its operating
results, with a greater proportion of the Company's revenue and operating
profitability occurring in the second half of the year. The Company attributes
this seasonality to a combination of factors including budgeting and other
factors affecting the health care industry generally, the compounding effect of
historical renewal schedules (which typically results in greater license
renewals in the third and fourth quarters), and internal staffing and growth
issues. The Company believes the licensing and subsequent renewal pattern of its
market performance products are more seasonal than its other products and
expects the addition of new products, including those from acquisitions, to
moderate, but not end, this seasonal effect.

A significant portion of the Company's expenses are relatively fixed, and
the amount and timing of increases in such expenses are based in large part on
the Company's expectations concerning future revenue. If revenues are below
expectations in any given quarter, the adverse effect may be magnified by the
Company's inability to adjust spending quickly enough to compensate for the
revenue shortfall. Accordingly, even a small variation from expected revenue
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations for
a given quarter.

SOFTWARE CAPITALIZATION

In addition to acquisitions, the Company seeks to expand its product
offerings through internal product development. Prior to 1996, the Company
expensed internal development costs due to the nominal costs incurred between
technological feasibility and product release. In 1996 the Company began
capitalizing internal product development costs which were incurred after
technological feasibility had been established and prior to general product
release. Capitalized software development costs net of accumulated amortization
totaled approximately $1.0 million at December 31, 1997.

22
<PAGE> 24

INCOME TAXES

The Company recorded income tax expense of $707,000 during 1997 due to
limitations on the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards and the
non-deductibility of certain acquired in-process research and development costs
to offset taxable income. At December 31, 1997, the Company had net operating
loss carryforwards of approximately $1.9 million for federal income tax
purposes. The net operating loss carryforwards expire beginning in 2006 through
2011. The total gross deferred tax asset was approximately $3.5 million as of
December 31, 1997 and has been reduced to zero by a valuation allowance and
offsetting deferred income tax liabilities of approximately $1.0 million.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences
between the financial reporting and the tax bases of assets and liabilities and
are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when
the differences are expected to reverse. Applying the provisions of SFAS 109 to
the Company, particularly considering the Company's history of net losses, the
Company was unable to support a conclusion consistent with SFAS 109 that it is
more likely than not that it will generate future taxable income during the loss
carryforward periods; therefore, the Company has provided a full valuation
allowance against its net deferred tax assets. In determining that a valuation
allowance was required, management primarily considered such factors as the
Company's history of operating losses and expected near-term future losses and
earnings, the nature of the Company's deferred tax assets, the absence of
significant excess of appreciated asset value over the tax basis of the
Company's net assets, the absence of significant taxable income in prior
carryback years and the potential for deferred tax assets resulting from future
business acquisitions. Although management's operating plans assume taxable and
operating income in future periods, historical performance has produced an
accumulated deficit of approximately $12.4 million at December 31, 1997.
Consequently, the Company has provided a full valuation allowance against its
net deferred tax assets until such time as the Company produces sufficient
taxable and operating income to support a lower valuation allowance.

At December 31, 1997, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of
approximately $1.9 million, which expire beginning in 2006 through 2011. Under
Internal Revenue Code Section 382, the Company's use of net operating loss
carryforwards is limited to approximately $1.1 million per year as a result of
the Company's initial public offering completed in January 1997 (see Note 8(h)
of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). Approximately $1.0 million of
the net operating loss at December 31, 1997 relates to loss carryforwards
acquired in connection with the 1997 Acquisitions. Accordingly, such losses are
limited to income generated by the acquired entity as well as substantial annual
limitations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company completed its initial public offering of Common Stock in
January 1997 and received approximately $22.6 million in net proceeds.
Approximately $9.1 million of these net proceeds were used to repay a senior
subordinated note and certain notes issued in connection with the Company's
acquisition of PracticeMatch, to pay accrued dividends on the Company's Series A
and Series B convertible preferred stock and to repay a bridge loan provided by
NationsBank. In 1997 and 1998, the Company has used the remaining net proceeds
of its initial public offering for working capital and general corporate
purposes, including the funding of the 1997 Acquisitions, the acquisition of
Healthdemographics and the development of new products and services.

In March 1997, NationsBank and the Company entered into a Credit Agreement
under which the NationsBank Revolver is available to the Company. The
NationsBank Revolver is secured by substantially all of the Company's assets.
Under the terms of the NationsBank Revolver the Company may, subject to
customary terms, conditions and covenants, borrow up to $10.0 million to fund
working capital needs, new product development and acquisitions. The Credit
Agreement for the NationsBank Revolver provides for interest at varying rates
based on LIBOR and NationsBank's prime rate, and will mature on March 28, 1999.
Under the terms of the NationsBank Revolver, the Company is subject to various
restrictive covenants regarding, among other things, payment of any dividends,
capital expenditures limitations, incurrence of indebtedness from others in
excess of certain amounts, and consummation of certain mergers and acquisitions
without the consent of NationsBank. Financial covenants include, but are not
limited to, maintaining debt to capitalization ratios, minimum net worth ratios,
debt service coverage ratios and cash flow leverage ratios. No amounts were

23
<PAGE> 25

outstanding under the Credit Agreement during 1997. In connection with the
acquisition of Healthdemographics, the Company borrowed approximately $2.4
million under the NationsBank Revolver. See "Use of Proceeds."

In April 1998, the Company and NationsBank entered into a commitment letter
providing for an increase in the maximum amount available under the NationsBank
Revolver from $10.0 million to $25.0 million. While the Company and NationsBank
have executed the commitment letter, the increase in the NationsBank Revolver is
subject to a number of conditions. As a result no assurances can be given that
the NationsBank Revolver will be increased and, if increased, what the final
terms of the Credit Agreement, as amended, will be.

In January 1996, the Company and HealthPlan Services Corporation ("HPSC")
entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, under which HPSC purchased 280,623
shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock for $2.0 million and agreed to
purchase up to $10.0 million in original principal amount of senior subordinated
notes. In connection with the issuance of the senior subordinated notes, the
Company agreed to issue warrants to purchase up to 432,101 shares of Common
Stock for $0.015 per share. In March 1996, the Company issued $6.9 million in
original principal amount of the senior subordinated notes to HPSC and warrants
to purchase 298,150 shares of Common Stock. In February 1998, these warrants
were exercised. The Company used $1.5 million of the proceeds from the sale of
Series B Convertible Preferred Stock to complete the acquisition of Formations.
Medirisk used approximately $5.5 million of the proceeds from the issuance of
the senior subordinated notes to complete the acquisition of PracticeMatch. In
addition, in connection with the PracticeMatch acquisition, the Company issued
acquisition notes to the sellers in an aggregate principal amount of $1.1
million. The HPSC senior subordinated notes, a NationsBank bridge loan and the
acquisition notes were repaid in full upon the completion of the Company's
initial public offering in January 1997. Upon such repayment HPSC's obligation
to purchase additional senior subordinated notes terminated.

The Company had working capital of $4.2 million as of December 31, 1997 as
compared to a working capital deficit of $2.5 million as of December 31, 1996.
This increase is primarily due to the receipt of the net proceeds of the
Company's initial public offering.

Net cash used by operating activities totaled $697,000 for the year ended
December 31, 1997, as compared $762,000 for the prior year. The decrease in cash
used of $66,000 was primarily the result of the timing of customer payments.

Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $9.3 million for
the year ended December 31, 1997, as compared to $7.3 million for the prior
year. In 1996, $7.0 million was used to fund the acquisitions of Formations and
PracticeMatch, while, in 1997, $7.4 million was used to fund the 1997
Acquisitions. The remaining $1.9 million of net cash used in investing
activities in the year ended December 31, 1997 was used to fund fixed asset
purchases and software development.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $13.1 million for the year
ended December 31, 1997, as compared to $8.2 million for the same period in the
prior year. As previously discussed, in 1997 the Company retained $13.5 million
of the net proceeds from its initial public offering, and the cash provided in
1996 resulted from the net proceeds under the HPSC Securities Purchase
Agreement.

After repayment of indebtedness incurred under the NationsBank Revolver to
fund the acquisition of Healthdemographics and payment of contingent
consideration payable in connection with the acquisition of CareData, the
Company currently has no specific plans with respect to the use of the remaining
net proceeds of this offering or the NationsBank Revolver. The Company's cash
flow from operations has generally been sufficient to fund the liquidity needs
of the Company other than acquisitions and new product development. The Company
anticipates that borrowings under the NationsBank Revolver and the remaining net
proceeds of this offering will be used principally for working capital and
general corporate purposes, including potential acquisitions of complementary
businesses or products in the health care information industry and for the
development of additional products and services. Pending the application of the
remaining net proceeds of this offering, the Company will invest such proceeds
in short-term, interest-bearing, investment-grade securities.

The Company believes that the remaining proceeds of this offering,
borrowings under the NationsBank Revolver and cash generated from operations
will be sufficient to meet the capital expenditure and working capital needs for
the Company's operations for the near term. The Company's future liquidity and
cash
24
<PAGE> 26

requirements will depend on a wide range of factors, including costs associated
with development of new products, enhancements of existing products and
acquisitions. Although the Company has no present commitments or agreements
regarding acquisitions, the Company's strategy is to acquire additional
complementary products and businesses. In addition, many of the Company's
acquisition agreements provide for the payment of contingent consideration based
on the performance of the acquired business. If such acquired businesses exceed
the relevant performance goals, the Company will be required to make additional
payments, which could be material. If the remaining proceeds of this offering,
borrowings under the NationsBank Revolver and cash flow from operations are not
sufficient to fund such acquisitions or contingent payments, the Company will be
required to seek additional financing, and there can be no assurance that such
financing will be available in amounts and on terms acceptable to the Company.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive
Income ("SFAS No. 130"). SFAS No. 130 requires companies to display, with the
same prominence as other financial statements, the components of comprehensive
income. SFAS No. 130 requires that an enterprise classify items of other
comprehensive income by their nature in a financial statement and display the
accumulated balance of other comprehensive income separately from retained
earnings and additional paid-in capital in the equity section of a statement of
financial position. SFAS No. 130 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997. Reclassification of financial statements for earlier periods
provided for comparative purposes is required. The Company's financial
statements will include the disclosure of comprehensive income in accordance
with the provisions of SFAS No. 130 beginning the first quarter of 1998.

In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information
("SFAS No. 131"). SFAS No. 131 requires that an enterprise disclose certain
information about operating segments. SFAS No. 131 is effective for financial
statements for periods beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company is
evaluating the need for such disclosures.

In October 1997, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee issued
Statement of Position 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition ("SOP 97-2"). SOP 97-2
is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 1997. The Company does not expect that adoption of SOP 97-2 will
significantly affect its results of operations.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

Both the Company's internal operations and products use a significant
number of computer software programs and operating systems. Given the
information known at this time about the Company's systems and products, coupled
with the Company's ongoing efforts to maintain systems and products as
necessary, the Company does not anticipate that the year 2000 issue or related
costs will have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of
operations or financial condition. However, the Company is still analyzing its
databases and software applications and those utilized by its key suppliers, and
to the extent they are not fully year 2000 compliant, there can be no assurance
that the costs necessary to update databases or software or potential systems
interuptions would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
results of operations or financial condition.

EFFECTS OF INFLATION

Management does not believe that inflation has had a material impact on
results of operations for the periods presented. Substantial increases in costs,
particularly the cost of labor for product development, marketing and sales,
could have an adverse impact on the Company's business, results of operations or
financial condition.

BUSINESS

Medirisk's databases have been built by collecting, standardizing and
normalizing more than three billion health care transaction records. The
Company's databases include records submitted by customers under an ongoing data
collection plan, data gathered from various regulatory and governmental
agencies, and data generated from the results of periodic proprietary surveys of
health care providers, consumers, managed care organizations and other payors.
Medirisk believes the long-standing relationships under which it collects data
and the data interpretation methodologies used by the Company represent
significant competitive advantages. Medirisk's databases are regularly updated
to reflect changes in the industry and, in the case of its market performance
and clinical performance databases, to take into consideration secondary factors
such as co-morbidity, case mix and demographics. These attributes permit
customers to compare objectively their financial and clinical performance to
industry or customer-specific benchmarks contained in the Company's databases
with specificity and precision.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

The U.S. health care industry has grown dramatically in recent years.
According to the Health Care Financing Administration ("HCFA"), health care
expenditures have increased from less than $250 billion, or approximately 9% of
the gross domestic product, in 1980 to in excess of $1.0 trillion, or
approximately 14% of the gross domestic product, in 1996. Payors are responding
to escalating costs by seeking to transfer the financial risk associated with
the delivery of health care to providers under capitated or other managed care
arrangements. As managed care arrangements become increasingly prevalent, both
payors and providers are under intense pressure to deliver health care at the
lowest total cost while ensuring high quality results. To achieve this goal,
payors and providers must understand procedure cost and utilization rates as
well as demonstrate improved outcomes. The evolving impact of managed care has
also increased physicians' receptivity to a variety of practice affiliation and
employment structures and, consequently, the need for data that can be used to
verify physician qualifications.

Traditional health care information systems have focused on the
administrative aspects of health care (i.e., accounting, billing, patient
scheduling). The Company believes there is an increasing trend toward
reimbursement structures for health care services which require sophisticated
financial information management and a growing awareness that most health care
costs are related to clinical, rather than administrative, aspects of the
delivery of care. The result has been a growing demand for databases
incorporating financial, clinical and analytical tools that leverage this data
in order to assess managed care contracts, analyze outcomes, evaluate managed
care member satisfaction, verify the qualifications of providers and meet
ongoing accreditation requirements. While some payors and providers have
recently adopted new information systems that allow them to capture cost,
utilization and clinical outcomes data regarding their own businesses, the
Company believes they generally have

26
<PAGE> 28

not been able to use such data effectively. To gain perspective on the
marketplace and to analyze the potential impact of managed care contracts,
payors and providers need benchmark data against which they can compare the data
they have collected regarding their own businesses, as well as information
relating to statistical differences in health care costs, projected utilization
and outcomes among urban, suburban and rural markets. While broad, public-sector
data have previously been available, payors and providers increasingly seek more
in-depth, region-specific health care information, which requires access to both
private- and public-sector data.

The health care information industry is highly fragmented and undergoing
consolidation, as vendors and service providers seek to build market share and
compete more effectively. Many existing health care information businesses have
been created by entrepreneurs who are knowledgeable in the areas of data
products and technology, but these businesses typically lack the sophisticated
marketing organizations, sales effort, capital and general management skills and
processes that are required to generate sustainable revenue expansion. Combined
with the burdens associated with product development and rapid technological
change, these issues pose significant challenges to health care information
companies that lack breadth of management experience, economies of scale and
access to capital. As a result of these factors, many smaller health care
information companies with technologically sophisticated products and a
reputation for quality service have become attractive acquisition candidates for
vendors and service providers seeking to reach critical mass.

STRATEGY

- Leverage the Company's Existing Customer Base. Medirisk believes the
increasing demand for health care information, coupled with its broad
customer base, provides a substantial opportunity for internal growth.
The Company has long-standing relationships with its customers and
believes it has developed a reputation for providing objective,
value-added information products. The Company intends to leverage these
relationships by cross-selling additional products and services to
existing customers and increasing product penetration through sales to
other operating units, departments or divisions of existing customers.

- Emphasize Recurring Revenue. Medirisk seeks to maximize recurring
revenue by emphasizing multi-year contracts and contract renewals. A
substantial portion of Medirisk's revenue is generated by the licensing
of products on an annual or multi-year basis. The Company believes that
its high rate of recurring revenue results principally from significant
revenue enhancements or cost savings achieved by Medirisk's customers
when they use the Company's products, as well as from the customer's
ongoing need for current information due to the rapid pace of change
within the health care industry. The Company's recurring revenue
percentage has been in excess of 70% for each of the last four years.

- Develop New Database Products and Decision-Support Tools. Medirisk
actively develops new products, product enhancements and
decision-support tools and, in 1997, introduced several new products and
product enhancements. The Company expects to introduce additional new
products and product enhancements during 1998. Ultimately, the Company
intends to cross-correlate existing and future databases in an effort to
develop integrated product offerings. For example, Medirisk believes
that by linking its market performance, clinical performance and
physician credentials products, cost and quality can be evaluated
together with outcomes for specific physicians, thus permitting true
management of care by allowing customers to compare the financial costs
and expected outcomes of competing treatment regimens or providers, and
to measure health care consumer satisfaction.

- Acquire and Integrate Complementary Products and Businesses. Medirisk
intends to acquire additional companies, products, databases and other
resources to expand into related areas and to increase market share
within the Company's existing product lines. Medirisk believes that the
acquisition of new products and customers creates compelling
cross-selling opportunities, enhances the development of new products by
facilitating cross-correlation of existing and acquired products, and
provides significant operating leverage. See "Acquisitions."

<PAGE> 29

ACQUISITIONS

Medirisk believes the selective acquisition of complementary businesses
results in a more rapid expansion of its product line and customer base, and
enables it to leverage its sales and marketing organization. As a result,
Medirisk has invested significant resources to build the business platform
necessary to be a consolidator in the fragmented health care information
technology and services industry. Since its initial public offering in January
1997, Medirisk has acquired five companies that provide complementary products
and services. The Company believes the acquisition of these entities created
significant cross-selling opportunities among its respective product offerings,
increased its market share within existing product lines and provided product
and customer expansion opportunities.

As part of a systematic approach to implementing its acquisition strategy,
Medirisk has corporate resources dedicated to identifying, analyzing and
pursuing targeted acquisition candidates. The Company currently is tracking a
database of more than 300 companies, of which more than 100 meet its primary
acquisition criteria for product type, revenue and customer base. Of primary
interest to Medirisk are: (i) health care information products focused on
benchmark and outcomes data; (ii) software products that assist in data
collection and analysis; (iii) health care consulting firms; and (iv) products
that assist in the delivery and use of Medirisk's databases.

Medirisk believes that its existing infrastructure, in combination with
management's experience in acquiring and integrating new companies and products,
will facilitate the continued successful implementation of its acquisition
strategy.

PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

Medirisk provides products and services designed to enable its customers to
measure and assess the performance of health care services in the United States
and to forecast the supply of and demand for health care services. At the core
of the Company's products and services are several proprietary databases. The
detailed nature of Medirisk's databases provides precise data that customers can
use to address specific decision-making needs and offers the Company's customers
competitive advantages. Medirisk also provides decision-support software tools
that enhance the utility of its database products, as well as customized
analytical services. The Company's flexible product design enables customers to
license the specific information they need based on variables such as geographic
region, medical specialty, clinical procedure and timeframe.

Medirisk has developed its databases and decision-support software for ease
of use and frequently updates its databases to ensure that its products are as
accurate and current as possible. All of the Company's decision-support software
is Microsoft Windows(R)-based and is compatible with a variety of hardware and
software applications. The Company's databases can be imported into standard
software programs including Microsoft Excel(R), Lotus 1-2-3(R), FoxPro(R),

MARKET PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS

Medirisk's market performance products provide customers with comprehensive
proprietary data and decision support tools for use in analyzing physician fees,
health care utilization patterns and member satisfaction with managed care plans
in the United States. The following is a description of the Company's primary
market performance products:

CareData Reports(TM). CareData Reports are reports that are created
utilizing information accumulated and analyzed by the Company regarding consumer
satisfaction with managed health care. Based on this data, CareData Reports rank
specific health plans. Comparative market analysis is available for 26
geographic markets and 170 health plans. To collect data used in CareData
Reports, the Company conducts health care consumer surveys that are sponsored by
approximately 400 major employers and measure member satisfaction with
approximately 150 aspects of managed health care. The Company's CareData Reports
product line is utilized by health plans to assess their competitive position
and quality of care, by employers to evaluate health plans and by pharmaceutical
companies to target potential markets for their products.

HealthPac(R). HealthPac is a database that includes current year estimates
and five-year forecasts of health care utilization, supply and demand in
specific geographic markets across the United States. HealthPacs data sets
include demographic information concerning 369 separate geographic areas,
population-based models of the incidence or prevalence of diseases by category,
estimates of the demand for health care services by treatment setting and
estimates of the supply of local providers able to meet the identified demand.

Avenir(R). Avenir is a Windows(R)-based decision support application that
integrates HealthPacs data sets with reporting, mapping and graphics software.
Avenir allows hospitals, health plans and other health care industry
participants to conduct detailed market analysis, forecasting and strategic
planning.

Medirisk(SM) Physician Fee Database. The Physician Fee Database reports
reimbursement rates for medical procedures for various types of payors and
specific geographic markets across the United States. The Physician Fee Database
provides data concerning reimbursement levels that providers are accepting from
managed care plans and other payors, rather than fees charged by those
providers, a distinction critical to an accurate understanding of market
conditions. Fee data in the Physician Fee Database are tracked by the AMA's CPT
codes, which define all current medical procedures and are segregated into 287
separate market areas in the United States (compared to 89 market areas that
were tracked by HCFA in 1997). Medirisk believes that the Physician Fee Database
divides the United States into more geographic markets than most competing
products, thereby allowing customers to make more precise fee decisions. A
customer can license data for a specific market, state or region or for the
entire United States.

Medirisk(SM) Procedure Utilization Database. The Procedure Utilization
Database provides frequently updated utilization data for all medical procedures
included in the Company's Physician Fee Database. This database can be used to
model the anticipated utilization of a specific service for a certain population
profile. The database is offered on a state-specific basis and can be adjusted
for age and gender.

Medirisk(TM) Capitation Manager. Capitation Manager is a Windows(R)-based
decision-support application that integrates Medirisk's Physician Fee Database
and Procedure Utilization Database and calculates capitation rates based on
customer-provided pricing and demographic assumptions. Using Capitation Manager,
the customer enters the demographic profile of a group proposed to be covered in
a capitated arrangement, the services to be provided and proposed capitated
pricing for those services. Using these assumptions in combination with the
Company's databases, Capitation Manager calculates the expected utilization of
the services to be provided and compares the proposed capitated pricing to
managed care, fee-for-service, Medicare and other fee benchmarks tracked by the
Company within a specific market.

CLINICAL PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS

Medirisk offers clinical performance products that enable customers to
measure clinical outcomes across a full range of care within a variety of
medical specialties. Clinical outcomes are generally defined as the change in a
patient's health status as a result of therapy or care delivered by a health
care professional. Clinical outcomes are measured empirically using standard
health status scales to assess the patient prior to the delivery of therapy
29
<PAGE> 31

or care, while such care is being delivered and after treatment is terminated.
The data included in these products are gathered by Company-certified
clinicians, automated patient information systems and Medirisk's patient
interview staff using the Company's standardized outcomes scales. Comparing
customer data with norms derived from Medirisk's database, Medirisk prepares
reports detailing customers' clinical performance based on a number of
independent measures including patient acuity, medical and functional
improvement, resource utilization, length of stay/duration of treatment, cost of
treatment and patient satisfaction. Medirisk's clinical performance products
assist both payors and providers with (i) measuring and predicting outcomes of
treatment regimens; (ii) making normalized comparisons of facilities and
providers; (iii) establishing benchmarks for clinical quality improvement; (iv)
developing standards for clinical practice; (v) generating analytical reports
for communicating with customers and their constituents; and (vi) substantiating
quality for managed care contracting and accreditation needs.

Medirisk markets its clinical performance products primarily to health care
providers, and its products are currently available to track clinical outcomes
in rehabilitation, ambulatory surgery, orthopaedics, occupational health, pain
management, neurological care, wound care, respiratory care, nutrition and
infection therapy.

In March 1997, Medirisk's clinical performance products were listed on the
Joint Commission on Accreditation of HealthCare Organizations' ("JCAHO") roster
of vendors who have acceptable clinical performance measurement systems to
support ORYX, JCAHO's new accreditation initiative. The ORYX initiative requires
health care organizations to select an outcomes measurement standard from
JCAHO's list of acceptable performance measurement systems in order to receive
JCAHO accreditation. The ORYX initiative currently covers hospitals, long-term
care organizations, integrated delivery networks, health plans and provider-
sponsored organizations.

PHYSICIAN CREDENTIALS PRODUCTS

Medirisk provides database products, software and outsourced services
designed to enable its customers to access detailed information concerning the
background and credentials of physicians in the United States. The Company's
physician credentials products facilitate its customers' ability to establish or
improve physician recruiting efforts on a cost-effective basis, develop health
care networks and market the provider component of health care services.
Medirisk's physician credentials products also aid hospital and managed care
customers in verifying the credentials of physicians and other providers with
whom they work. Hospitals, managed care organizations and other health care
industry participants are required to verify and periodically re-verify such
credentials in order to maintain accreditation by organizations such as the
National Committee for Quality Assurance ("NCQA") and JCAHO. The Company's
credentials service has successfully completed all 10 of the audits of
credentialing processes conducted by NCQA. The Company's physician database is
comprised in part of physician data from the AMA's Physician MasterFile. All
physician information is further validated and enhanced by personal telephone
interviews with the physicians that are conducted by members of Medirisk's
staff. Current products include:

Provider Credential Verification Report(TM). The Provider Credential
Verification Report is a report that provides customers with an efficient and
cost-effective means to verify electronically the key professional credentials
of participating health care practitioners using primary source data. When
joined with the Company's electronic processing of a National Practitioner
Database and/or Federation of State Medical Boards query, and written
verification of a practitioner's hospital privileges, malpractice insurance
coverage and claims history, the Provider Credential Verification Report becomes
the central component of the Company's credential and verification service.

PrimeSource(TM). PrimeSource is a credential verification database
provided in CD-ROM format. This database is an accurate, cost-effective way to
verify a physician's credentials. PrimeSource includes records for the
following: state licenses and sanctions; Drug Enforcement Agency registrations
and sanctions; US medical school education records from 1979 to the present; US
residency program training records from 1983 to the present; board
certifications from the American Board of Medical Specialties; Medicare
Universal Provider Identification Numbers; and Medicare and Medicaid sanctions.
PrimeSource is updated quarterly, and customers are billed only for the reports
they generate.

PracticeMatch(TM). PracticeMatch is a Windows(R)-based decision-support
software system that provides in-house physician recruiters with on-line access
to the Company's physician database. By establishing a series of search and
selection criteria, customers obtain information about physicians who satisfy
specified criteria. The customer can then print or download the information for
use in building in-house databases, generating recruiting status reports and
tracking recruiting expenses associated with specific candidates. The
PracticeMatch product is constructed from proprietary records of approximately
135,000 physicians developed in part from data in the AMA's Physician
MasterFile.

DATA ACQUISITION METHODOLOGY

In designing its products and services, Medirisk emphasizes quality and
ease of use. Medirisk uses proprietary data engineering methodologies to
standardize and interpret data in order to ensure that its products are as
comprehensive, accurate and current as possible. The detailed nature of the
Company's databases provides precise data that customers can use to address
their specific decision-making needs. Furthermore, Medirisk's data engineering
methodologies are designed to ensure that its databases are free of bias. The
resulting objectivity of Medirisk's products and services allows the Company to
market its products to a broad range of health care industry participants and
improves the credibility of its databases as benchmarking tools.

The Company collects data for inclusion in its databases and related
products in a variety of ways, including its customer data collection program
and its regular surveys of managed care organizations, providers, employers and
consumers. To encourage customers to participate in some components of its data
collection program, Medirisk offers price discounts in return for access to
customers' raw claims data and other health care transaction records. Medirisk's
surveys are conducted on a regular basis, with special surveys conducted from
time to time to address new issues and emerging trends. Once the data are
collected, Medirisk's database personnel clean and analyze the data before they
are included in the Company's databases. Medirisk uses proprietary processes to
validate data by standardizing, normalizing and formatting the submitted data
and then applies its database methodologies to segment the data.

Medirisk's databases are regularly updated to reflect changes in the
industry and, in the case of its market performance and clinical performance
databases, to take into consideration secondary factors such as co-morbidity,
case mix and demographics. These attributes permit customers to compare
objectively their financial and clinical performance to industry or
customer-specific benchmarks contained in the Company's databases with
specificity and precision.

Market Performance Products. The data used in Medirisk's market
performance products have been collected through (i) Medirisk's customer data
collection program, whereby customers provide their medical claims or other
health care transaction data to the Company on a regular basis, (ii) surveys of
more than 1,600 managed care organizations, (iii) purchases of certain data
sets, and (iv) maintenance of a customer-support database. Included in the
Physician Fee Database and Procedure Utilization Database are approximately
three billion private sector transaction records, including actual managed care
transaction data and negotiated fee schedules. While Medirisk's market
performance databases include public-sector data, they focus primarily on
private-sector data derived from transaction data and clinical records
contributed by Medirisk's customers and obtained from other sources. These
private-and public-sector data are not commingled, thus permitting more precise
benchmarking of data relevant to the private health care marketplace. The
Company believes that private-sector data are more useful for comparative
purposes than public-sector data and that Medirisk's comprehensive compilation
of private-sector data represents a competitive advantage for the Company. For
the Company's CareData Reports products, Medirisk conducts annual patient
surveys regarding consumer satisfaction with managed care. These surveys are
sponsored by approximately 400 major employers and measure member satisfaction
with approximately 150 aspects of managed care including satisfaction with
provider panels, pharmacy benefit management and overall health plan design. For
the Company's HealthPac database, Medirisk collects demographic, market supply
and utilization data from publicly available sources or purchases or licenses
data from their source.

Clinical Performance Products. Medirisk obtains data for its clinical
outcomes databases from its clinical outcomes customers and other
Company-certified sources. To facilitate collection of outcomes measurements,
the

31
<PAGE> 33

Company provides its customers with data-collection tools that are tailored to
the customer's clinical record-keeping environment. Medirisk collects the data
through customer submission, automated patient information systems and direct
patient interviews conducted by the Company's clinical interview staff. Data
collection software or optical scan forms are used to collect data directly from
the clinician in the absence of automated patient systems. To enhance the
reliability and integrity of customer-submitted data, Medirisk will include in
its outcomes database only information received from customer-affiliated
clinicians who are trained and certified by Medirisk in rating patient
performance and in data-collection protocols.

Physician Credentials Products. The data included in Medirisk's physician
credentials credentialing products are obtained from publicly available sources
or are licensed, leased or purchased from the source of the data. Sources of
data for credentialing products include state medical boards, the Drug
Enforcement Agency, HCFA, the American Board of Medical Specialties, the
American Association of Medical Colleges and the National Association of Social
Workers. The data used in Medirisk's physician credentials recruiting products
are collected from publicly available sources and the AMA Physician MasterFile,
and are verified by personal telephone interviews with each physician. Medirisk
employs professional interview personnel who contact physicians directly, gather
the required information, record the information in the automated database and
send a hard copy to each physician for verification. The Company believes that
the fact that each physician profiled in the Company's recruiting database has
personally verified the information and knows that he or she is tracked in the
database ensures the highest quality profile and offers a significant
competitive advantage over unverified databases. In addition, the Company is the
exclusive licensee of the AMA to share and enhance portions of the AMA's
Physician MasterFile. This relationship greatly enhances the quality and
availability of information about practicing physicians.

CUSTOMERS

The unbiased nature of Medirisk's databases enables the Company to market
its products to a wide range of health care industry participants, including
managed care plans, indemnity insurers, integrated delivery systems, hospitals,
specialty health care providers, physician practice management companies,
physician practices, consulting firms, equipment suppliers and pharmaceutical
firms. None of the Company's customers, other than HEALTHSOUTH Corporation
accounted for a material amount of the Company's revenues in 1997. During 1997,
revenues from HEALTHSOUTH represented approximately 16% of Medirisk's total
revenues. Most of Medirisk's major customers, which are defined as generating
annualized revenue of more than $5,000, license products in only one of the
product areas offered by the Company. Medirisk has approximately 1,000 major
customers that in the aggregate account for more than 90% of the Company's
revenue.

PRODUCT DELIVERY

The Company's products are delivered to customers on CD-ROM, diskette,
magnetic tape, on-line access or hard copy depending upon customer preference.
Medirisk believes that there are readily available alternative sources of supply
for all of the media on which its products are delivered.

COMPETITION

Medirisk faces intense competition in providing health care information
products and services. Competitors vary in size, scope and breadth of product
and service offerings. The Company competes with different competitors in each
of its target markets, and certain of such competitors have substantially
greater resources than those of the Company. In addition, several large
horizontally integrated information services companies, including Dow Jones, IMS
Healthcare, First Data Corporation, National Data Corporation, United Healthcare
and Thomson Publishing, have developed and are marketing information products
and services to the health care industry. The Company believes that it is likely
that one or more of such companies may become more direct competitors of the
Company either by acquiring existing competitors or by developing and marketing
their own products. Many of these larger companies are engaged in the processing
of health care claims and, thus, have access to substantial claims- and
cost-related data from which they could build competing databases or which they
could license to other competitors of the Company. The Company also competes
with the internal information resources and systems of certain of its
prospective and existing customers. The Company believes
32
<PAGE> 34

that the principal competitive factors in its target markets include the breadth
and quality of database and applications offerings, access to proprietary data,
the proprietary nature of methodologies and technical resources, price and the
effectiveness of marketing and sales efforts.

EMPLOYEES

On April 8, 1998, the Company had 234 full-time employees. Of these, 19
were corporate personnel, 44 were sales and marketing personnel and 171 were
involved in operations and product development. None of the Company's employees
is covered by a collective bargaining agreement. The Company considers relations
with its employees to be good.

PROPERTIES

Medirisk's corporate headquarters occupy approximately 16,000 square feet
of an office building located in Atlanta, Georgia, under a lease expiring in
March 1999, with one optional five-year renewal term. Medirisk also leases
office space in Chicago, Illinois; Nashville, Tennessee; New York, New York;
Rockville, Maryland; San Diego, California; St. Louis, Missouri; and St. Paul,
Minnesota. The Company believes that such offices are adequate for the Company's
current requirements.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is involved in various claims arising in the normal course of
business. In the opinion of management of the Company, although the outcomes of
these claims are uncertain, in the aggregate they are not likely to have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations or
financial condition.

UNDERWRITING

The Underwriters named below (the "Underwriters"), for whom SunTrust
Equitable Securities, J.C. Bradford & Co. and Jefferies & Company, Inc. are
acting as representatives (the "Representatives"), have severally agreed,
subject to the terms and conditions of the Underwriting Agreement, to purchase
from the Company and the Selling Stockholders the number of shares of Common
Stock set forth opposite their respective names below.

SunTrust Equitable Securities...............................

===========
</TABLE>

The Company and the Selling Stockholders are obligated to sell 2,250,000
and 250,000 shares, respectively, and the Underwriters are obligated to purchase
all of the 2,500,000 shares offered hereby, if any are purchased. The Common
Stock is offered subject to receipt and acceptance by the Underwriters and to
certain other conditions, including the right to reject orders in whole or in
part.

The Underwriters, through the Representatives, have advised the Company and
the Selling Stockholders that the Underwriters propose to offer the shares of
Common Stock to the public initially at the public offering price set forth on
the cover page of this Prospectus and to selected dealers at such public
offering price less a concession not to exceed $ per share. The
selected dealers may reallow a concession to certain other dealers not to exceed
$ per share. After the initial offering to the public, the public
offering price, the concession to selected dealers and the reallowance to other
dealers may be changed by the Representatives.

The Company and the Selling Stockholders have granted the Underwriters an
option, exercisable for 30 days from the date of this Prospectus, to purchase an
aggregate 375,000 shares of Common Stock at the public offering price less the
underwriting discount as set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus. The
Company has granted the Underwriters an option to purchase 229,410 shares of
Common Stock, and the Selling Stockholders have granted the Underwriters and
option to purchase 145,590 shares of Common Stock. If the Underwriters exercise
their option to purchase any of the additional shares of Common Stock, each of
the Underwriters will have a firm commitment, subject to certain conditions, to
purchase approximately the same percentage thereof which the number of shares of
Common Stock to be purchased by each of them as shown in the above table bears
to the Underwriters' initial commitment. The Underwriters may exercise such
option solely to cover over-allotments, if any, in connection with the sale of
the Common Stock offered hereby. The Underwriters, should they exercise their
over-allotment option, will exercise such option on a pro rata basis.

In order to facilitate the Offering, the Underwriters may engage in
transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the
Common Stock during and after the Offering. Specifically, the Underwriters may
over-allot or otherwise create a short position in the Common Stock for their
own account by selling more shares of Common Stock than have been sold to them
by the Company and the Selling Stockholders. The Underwriters may elect to cover
any such short position by purchasing shares of Common Stock in the open market
or by exercising the over-allotment option granted to the Underwriters. In
addition, the Underwriters may stabilize or maintain the price of the Common
Stock by bidding for or purchasing shares of Common Stock in the open market and
may impose penalty bids, under which selling concessions allowed to syndicate
members or other broker-dealers participating in the Offering are reclaimed if
shares of Common Stock previously distributed in the Offering are repurchased in
connection with stabilization transactions or otherwise. The effect of these
transactions may be to stabilize or maintain the market price of the Common
Stock at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market.
The imposition of a penalty bid may also affect the price of the Common Stock to
the extent that it discourages resales thereof. No representation is made as to
the magnitude or effect of any such stabilization or other transactions. Such
transactions may be effected on the Nasdaq National Market or otherwise and, if
commenced, may be discontinued at any time.

In connection with the Offering, certain Underwriters (and selling group
members) may also engage in passive market making transactions in the Common
Stock on the Nasdaq National Market. Passive market

39
<PAGE> 41

making consists of displaying bids on the Nasdaq National Market limited by the
prices of independent market makers and effecting purchases limited by such
prices and in response to order flow. Rule 103 of Regulation M promulgated by
the Commission limits the amount of net purchases that each passive market maker
may make and the displayed size of each bid. Passive market making may stabilize
the market price of the Common Stock at a level above that which might otherwise
prevail in the open market and, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time.

In connection with the Offering, the Company and stockholders of the
Company holding in the aggregate 889,267 shares of Common Stock upon
consummation of the Offering, including each of the Company's officers and
directors, the Selling Stockholders and certain other stockholders, have agreed,
subject to certain limited exceptions, that they will not directly or
indirectly, offer, pledge, sell, offer to sell, contract to sell or grant any
option to purchase or otherwise sell or dispose (or announce any offer, pledge,
offer of sale, contract of sale, grant of any option or other sale or
disposition), of any shares of Common Stock or other capital stock for a period
of 120 days after the date of this Prospectus without the prior written consent
of SunTrust Equitable Securities.

The Underwriting Agreement provides that the Company and the Selling
Stockholders will indemnify the Underwriters against certain liabilities,
including civil liabilities under the Securities Act, or will contribute to
payments which the Underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof.

During 1995 and early 1996, SunTrust Equitable Securities, one of the
Underwriters of the Offering, acted as financial advisor for the Company in
connection with the proposed private placement of securities of the Company,
which culminated in the sale to HPSC of 280,623 shares of Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock for $2.0 million and HPSC's agreement to purchase up to $10.0
million in Senior Subordinated Notes. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Liquidity and Capital
Resources." For its services, SunTrust Equitable Securities received customary
compensation and reimbursement of its related expenses.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Medirisk, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Medirisk,
Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash
flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1997.
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Medirisk,
Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period
ended December 31, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

MEDIRISK, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1997, 1996, AND 1995

(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Description of Business

Medirisk, Inc. (the "Company") is a provider of proprietary database
products, decision-support software and analytical services to the health care
industry. The Company's products and services enable its customers to make
objective comparisons of the financial costs and clinical outcomes of physician
services to customer-specific and industry benchmarks, assess patient
satisfaction with specific managed care plans, and obtain information concerning
the background and credentials of physicians. These capabilities assist health
care industry participants in measuring the performance of health care payors
and providers.

(b) Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. In preparing the consolidated
financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the
balance sheet, income and expenses for the period, and disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Medirisk,
Inc. and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash equivalents at December 31, 1997 and 1996 included amounts of
$2,106,963 and $145,897, respectively, invested in money market accounts with a
major brokerage firm. For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company
considers all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three
months or less to be cash equivalents.

(d) Revenue Recognition

The Company provides services and licenses its products primarily pursuant
to single- and multi-year contracts that provide for the payment of
nonrefundable annual fees, often in advance of use or shipment, or of quarterly
fees generally billed in advance of service delivery. The products are
segregated into three types: market performance, clinical performance, and
physician credentials products. The market performance products provide
customers with information from the Company's market performance product
databases. Revenue on these sales is recognized upon the delivery of the data.
The Company also licenses the exclusive rights to market the results of its
managed care consumer satisfaction surveys. Revenue from the licenses of
disease-specific customized surveys to the pharmaceutical industry is recognized
as the related costs of producing the survey are incurred, and revenues from
noncustomized data licensing is recognized upon delivery. The clinical
performance products revenues relate to the delivery of services and are
recognized over the contract terms as the services are provided. The physician
credentials products consist of (i) data and services provided to customers over
time, for which revenue is recognized ratably over the life of the contract, and
(ii) credentials reports that validate physicians' education, training, and
other matters, for which revenue is recognized upon delivery of the completed
reports. Customer service revenues are recognized ratably over the service
contract period. All other revenue, including

F-7
<PAGE> 51

fees for training, consulting fees, and other miscellaneous services, is
recognized upon the performance of the applicable services.

(e) Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenue represents accounts receivable and payments to the Company
by customers in advance of revenue recognition.

(f) Accounts Receivable

The Company enters into multi-year, non-cancelable subscription contracts,
for which the associated receivables are recorded as accounts receivable and
deferred revenue when they become due. The contract balances are due at the
beginning of their respective annual anniversary dates.

(g) Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation
and amortization. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from three to seven years.
Amortization of assets acquired under capital lease arrangements not
transferring ownership or without a bargain purchase option is recorded using
the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets or the
lease term, whichever is shorter.

(h) Excess of Cost Over Net Assets of Businesses Acquired

The excess of cost over net assets of businesses acquired (goodwill) is
being amortized using the straightline method over a period of 15 years. The
amortization period is based on, among other things, the nature of the products
and markets, the competitive position of the acquired companies, and the
adaptability to changing market conditions of the acquired companies. At each
balance sheet date, the Company assesses the recoverability of this intangible
asset by determining whether the amortization of the goodwill balance over its
remaining life can be recovered through undiscounted future operating cash flows
of the acquired operation. The amount of goodwill impairment, if any, is
measured based on projected discounted future operating cash flows using a
discount rate equal to the rate of return that would be required by the Company
for a similar investment with like risks.

(i) Other Intangible Assets

Other intangible assets are comprised mainly of acquired products and
acquired customer contracts. The costs of acquired products and acquired
customer contracts from business acquisitions are derived using a fair value
method of allocation. Other intangible assets are being amortized using the
straight-line method over five years. The Company makes an ongoing assessment of
the recoverability of its intangible assets by comparing the amount capitalized
for each asset to the estimated net realizable value ("NRV") of the asset. If
the NRV is less than the amount capitalized, a write-down to NRV is recorded.

(j) Research and Development Costs and Software Development Costs

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Amounts expensed
for research and development for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996, and
1995, were $2,149,155, $951,645, and $221,943, respectively.

The Company capitalizes software development costs by project, commencing
when technological feasibility for the respective product is established and
concluding when the product is ready for general release to customers. The
Company makes an ongoing assessment of the recoverability of its capitalized
software projects by comparing the amount capitalized for each product to the
estimated NRV of the product. If the NRV is less than the amount capitalized, a
write-down to NRV is recorded. The Company capitalized computer software
development costs of $983,937 and $120,969 for the years ended December 31, 1997
and 1996, respectively. Capitalized computer software development costs are
being amortized using the straight-line method over an

F-8
<PAGE> 52

estimated useful life of five years. Amortization expense was $76,597 and
$19,911 for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

(k) Stock Option Plans

Prior to January 1, 1996, the Company accounted for its stock option plans
in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion
No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations.
As such, compensation expense to be recognized over the related vesting period
would generally be determined on the date of grant only if the current market
price of the underlying stock exceeded the exercise price. On January 1, 1996,
the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation ("SFAS 123"), which permits entities to
recognize as expense over the vesting period the fair value of all stock-based
awards on the date of grant. Alternatively, SFAS 123 also allows entities to
continue to apply the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and provide pro forma net
income (loss) and pro forma income (loss) per share disclosures for employee
stock option grants made in 1995 and future years as if the fair-value-based
method defined in SFAS 123 had been applied. The Company has elected to continue
to apply the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25. The pro forma effects of SFAS 123
for 1997 and 1996 are presented in footnote 8(c). The effects of SFAS 123 for
1995 are not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements and,
therefore, the pro forma and other disclosure requirements have not been
presented.

(l) Net Loss Per Share of Common Stock

On December 31, 1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share ("SFAS 128"), which prescribes the
calculation methodology and financial reporting requirements for basic and
diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings (loss) per common share available to
common shareholders is based on the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share available to common
shareholders is based on the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding and dilutive potential common shares, such as dilutive stock
options.

Retroactive restatement has been made to share and per share amounts for
the reverse stock split (see note 8(g)) and conversion of all of the Company's
Series A convertible preferred stock and Series B convertible preferred stock
into common stock which occurred upon consummation of the Company's initial
public offering in January 1997 (see note 8(h)). Weighted average number of
shares of common stock outstanding through December 31, 1996 has been calculated
pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 98
("SAB 98") whereby common stock, options, warrants, or other potentially
dilutive instruments that are issued for nominal consideration ("nominal
issuances") during the periods covered by statements of operations included in
the Registration Statement for an initial public offering are reflected in
earnings per share calculations in a manner similar to a stock split or stock
dividend for which retroactive restatement is required. The Company had nominal
issuances in the periods covered by its Registration Statement for its initial
public offering. The computation of diluted net loss per share of common stock
was antidilutive in each of the periods presented; therefore, the amounts
reported for basic and diluted net loss per share are the same.

All prior period net loss per share data presented in these consolidated
financial statements have been restated to conform to the provisions of SFAS 128
and SAB 98.

(m) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed
of

The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 121, Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of, on
January 1, 1996. This statement requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for
impairment 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 exceed the fair value of
the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying
amount or fair value less costs to sell.

(n) Income Taxes

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future
tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement
carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
bases and operating loss carryforwards. Deferred income tax assets and
liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable
income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be
recovered or settled. The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities
of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the
enactment date.

(2) BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

1997 ACQUISITIONS

Staff-Link, Inc. ("Staff-Link")

In May 1997, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of
Staff-Link of St. Louis, Missouri, a provider of a physician database and
related software utilities designed to assist health care organizations with
their in-house recruiting efforts. The Company purchased Staff-Link, Inc. for
$300,000 in cash and the assumption of net assets of $251,000. The acquisition
was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting with the results of
operations of the business acquired included from the effective date of the
acquisition. The acquisition resulted in acquired customer contracts of
approximately $527,000 and excess of cost over net assets acquired of
approximately $49,000.

CIVS, Inc. ("CIVS")

Effective June 1, 1997, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares
of CIVS of Rockville, Maryland, a leading national provider of credentialing
services to hospitals and managed care organizations for approximately
$3,500,000 in cash and 129,166 shares of the Company's common stock and the
assumption of net assets of $76,000. The acquisition was accounted for using the

business acquired included from the effective date of the acquisition. The
acquisition resulted in purchased in-process research and development costs of
approximately $300,000, acquired products of approximately $125,000, and excess
of cost over net assets acquired of approximately $755,000. Contingent
consideration will be paid by the Company based upon a multiple of Medsource's
operating income over a predetermined amount through 1999. These payments could
be significant. Contingent consideration ultimately paid will be added to excess
cost over net assets acquired and amortized prospectively.

Integration Activities

The Company incurred approximately $200,000 of integration costs during
1997 for these 1997 acquisitions.

1996 ACQUISITIONS

Formations in HealthCare, Inc. ("Formations")

F-12
<PAGE> 56

On March 28, 1997, the Company entered into a two-year $10,000,000 line of
credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with a commercial bank. Borrowings
under the Credit Agreement accrue interest at either prime or LIBOR plus 1.65%
to 2.25%, depending on interest rate elections made by the Company and certain
financial ratio positions as defined in the Credit Agreement. Interest on
borrowings is payable monthly and principal is due at expiration of the Credit
Agreement, March 28, 1999. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are subject to
certain customary financial covenants and dividend restrictions and are secured
by substantially all of the Company's assets. There were no borrowings under the
Credit Agreement during 1997.

(5) HEALTHPLAN SERVICES SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT (SEE NOTE 8(H))

On January 8, 1996, for the purpose of financing the Company's ongoing
acquisition program and working capital needs, the Company and HealthPlan
Services Corporation ("HPSC"), entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the
"Agreement"). Under the Agreement, HPSC purchased 280,623 shares of the
Company's Series B convertible preferred stock for $2,000,000 (see note 8) and
agreed to purchase up to $10,000,000 in original principal amount of senior
subordinated notes. In addition, HPSC would be issued warrants to purchase up to
432,101 shares of the Company's common stock for $0.015 per share, based upon
the amount of senior subordinated debt purchased. HPSC's obligation to purchase
senior subordinated notes under the Agreement terminated upon the earliest to
occur of (i) an initial public offering of the Company; (ii) a change of control
of the Company; (iii) an event of default; (iv) January 8, 1999; or (v) the
death or termination of employment of the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer.

On March 13, 1996, the Company sold a $6,900,000 senior subordinated note
to HPSC. The note bore interest at 10% payable quarterly and was due upon the
earliest to occur of (i) an initial public offering by the Company; (ii) a
change of control of the Company; or (iii) at maturity on January 8, 2003.
Warrants to purchase 298,150 shares of the Company's common stock were issued to
HPSC in connection with issuance of this note. The proceeds received were
allocated to the notes and the warrants based on their relative fair values
resulting in a discount of $573,111 on the note, which was being amortized over
the life of the note.

On January 31, 1997, the Company consummated an initial public offering
(see note 8(h)). As a result, the Agreement was terminated and the $6,900,000
note payable to HPSC was repaid. The Company recorded a charge of $806,146 for
early extinguishment of debt relating to the unamortized note discount and
related deferred financing costs.

(6) COMMITMENTS

(a) Leases

The Company has entered into noncancelable capital and operating lease
agreements for office space, furniture and fixtures, and computer and office
equipment. Future minimum payments under all such noncancelable capital and
operating leases as of December 31, 1997 are as follows:

respectively.

F-13
<PAGE> 57

(b) Employment Agreement

The Company has entered into an Employment Agreement (the "Employment
Agreement") with the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (the "CEO").
The Employment Agreement provides for a base salary subject to annual increases
at the discretion of the compensation committee, annual performance bonuses
based upon attaining certain goals established by the compensation committee,
minimum annual stock option grants, and certain severance benefits in the event
of termination. The Employment Agreement expires on May 31, 1999 and is
automatically renewable for one-year terms thereafter, subject to termination by
the Company or the CEO upon 60 days' notice.

The Company maintains a 401(k) plan (the "Plan") for the benefit of all
eligible employees. The Plan provides for employer matching contributions at the
discretion of the Company's management. The Company has not paid or accrued an
amount for matching contributions since the inception of the Plan.

(7) INCOME TAXES

Income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 1997 was $707,000. All
of the $707,000 is current; $640,000 is federal and $67,000 is state tax
expense.

Because of operating losses, net operating loss carryforwards, and other
factors, the Company did not provide any income tax expense for the years ended
December 31, 1996, and 1995. A reconciliation of the expected income tax
(benefit) expense (based on a U.S. Federal statutory tax rate of 34%) to the
actual income taxes is as follows:

========== ==========
</TABLE>

The net change in the valuation allowance for the years ended December 31,
1997 and 1996 was a (decrease) increase of $(568,217) and $2,774,215,
respectively. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are initially
recognized for differences between the financial statement carrying amount and
the tax bases of assets and liabilities which will result in future deductible
or taxable amounts and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. A valuation
allowance is then established to reduce the deferred income tax asset to the
level at which it is "more likely than not" that the tax benefits will be
realized. Realization of tax benefits of deductible temporary differences and
operating loss or credit carryforwards depends on having sufficient taxable
income of an appropriate character within the carryback and carryforward
periods. Sources of taxable income that may allow for the realization of tax
benefits include: (1) taxable income in the current year or prior years that is
available through carryback; (2) future taxable income that will result from the
reversal of existing taxable temporary differences; and (3) taxable income
generated by future operations.

The valuation allowance at December 31, 1997 includes approximately $1.0
million that will reduce goodwill if and when the tax benefits from an acquired
net operating loss are subsequently recognized.

At December 31, 1997, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of
approximately $1.9 million, which expire beginning in 2006 through 2011. Under
Internal Revenue Code Section 382, the Company's use of net operating loss
carryforwards is limited to approximately $1,100,000 per year as a result of the
Company's initial public offering completed in January 1997 (see note 8(h)).
Approximately $1.0 million of the net operating loss at December 31, 1997
relates to loss carryforwards acquired in connection with the 1997 Acquisitions.
Accordingly, such losses are limited to income generated by the acquired entity
as well as substantial annual limitations.

(8) STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (DEFICIT)

(a) Articles of Incorporation

On January 8, 1996, the Company's articles of incorporation were amended to
increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 5,000,000 shares
to 20,000,000 shares and to establish 400,000 authorized shares of Series B
convertible preferred stock. On that same date, the Company's articles of
incorporation were amended to remove the redeemable feature from the Company's
Series A convertible preferred stock.

In September 1996, the Company was reincorporated in Delaware, and in
connection with such reincorporation, the Company's treasury stock was canceled
and an additional 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock were authorized. In
addition, the Company's articles of incorporation were amended such that the
Company's Series A

F-15
<PAGE> 59

and Series B convertible preferred stock would be canceled and no longer
authorized upon completion of an initial public offering (see note 8(h)).

(b) Series A and Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (see note 8(h))

Until January 1996, the Series A convertible preferred stock (Series A
"CPS") carried a mandatory redemption feature pursuant to a Stockholders'
Agreement which required the Company to redeem all outstanding shares of Series
A CPS on the seventh anniversary of the original issue date (April 5, 1998) at a
price equivalent to the liquidation price of $1.95. In January 1996, the
redemption feature was eliminated and the balance related to this security was
reclassified to stockholders' equity.

The holders of the Company's Series A CPS were entitled to dividends on a
cumulative basis at 8% which began on April 5, 1994. The holders of the
Company's Series B convertible preferred stock (Series B "CPS") were entitled to
dividends on a cumulative basis at 8% beginning on January 8, 1997. The Series A
CPS and Series B CPS were convertible at the option of the holder at any time
into common stock at a ratio of 0.6496 share for one share, subject to
adjustment in certain circumstances, and the holders of the Series A CPS and
Series B CPS carried voting power equivalent to the number of common shares into
which their preferred shares could be converted. Furthermore, the Company was
restricted from paying dividends on the Company's common stock until all unpaid
dividends on the Series A CPS and Series B CPS were paid. In no event could the
Series A CPS and Series B CPS dividends be paid until payment in full of the
senior subordinated note payable. These dividends payable were classified as
noncurrent at December 31, 1996 (see note 8(h)).

In the event of liquidation, holders of the Series A CPS and Series B CPS
were entitled to the sum of (a) $1.95 per preferred share for Series A CPS and
$7.13 per preferred share for Series B CPS, (b) all accrued and unpaid
dividends, and (c) the portion of the fair market value of the assets and
liabilities of the Company attributable to the Series A CPS and Series B CPS
holders determined by the number of common shares that would be held by the
Series A CPS and Series B CPS holders upon conversion to common stock.
Additionally, the Series A CPS and Series B CPS would automatically convert upon
the occurrence of certain future events such as an initial public offering, as
defined, and the Company was required to obtain prior approval of the holders of
the Series A CPS and Series B CPS to effect certain transactions. The holders of
the Series A CPS and Series B CPS also carried certain other rights and
privileges, as further defined in the agreements.

During 1994 notes payable of $300,000 and accrued interest of $18,000 were
converted into 318,000 shares of the Company's Series A CPS at a conversion
price of $1.00 per share. Until January 1996, the discount of $302,100 resulting
from the 1994 conversion, and the discount associated with the original issuance
of the Series A CPS of $96,450, representing the difference between the recorded
value of the Series A CPS and the redemption value, were being accreted using
the straight-line method from issuance date through April 5, 1998, the first
date that the holders could have required redemption.

As a result of the Company's initial public offering in January 1997, the
Series A CPS and Series B CPS were converted into 1,021,809 shares of common
stock of the Company.

The Company periodically grants stock options to encourage stock ownership
by, and retain the services of, certain key employees. Options granted are
determined at the discretion of the Board of Directors. All options granted are
earned over a five-year vesting period at 20% per year, and expire at the
earlier of three months after termination of employment or ten years from date
of grant.

In October 1996, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted the
Medirisk, Inc. 1996 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Incentive Plan") and the
Medirisk, Inc. Non-Management Directors' Stock Option Plan (the "Directors'
Plan"). A total of 580,645 shares of common stock have been reserved for
issuance under the Incentive Plan and 100,000 shares of common stock have been
reserved for issuance under the Directors' Plan.

The Company has elected to follow APB Opinion No. 25 and related
interpretations in accounting for its stock options. Under APB Opinion No. 25,
because the exercise price of the Company's employee stock options equals the
market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation
expense is recognized.
F-16
<PAGE> 60

However, SFAS 123 requires presentation of pro forma net earnings (loss) and pro
forma earnings (loss) per share as if the Company had accounted for its employee
stock options granted subsequent to December 31, 1994 under the fair value
method of that statement. The pro forma effect for 1995 is not material. For
purposes of pro forma disclosure, the estimated fair value of the options is
amortized to expense over the vesting period. Under the fair value method, the
Company's net loss and loss per share would have been increased as follows:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
1997 1996
----------- -----------
<S> <C> <C>
Net loss.................................................. $(3,062,437) $(7,239,628)
Loss per share............................................ $ (0.78) $ (4.71)
</TABLE>

Because SFAS 123 is applicable only to options granted subsequent to
December 31, 1994, and the options generally have a five-year vesting period,
the pro forma effect will not be fully reflected until 1999.

The per share weighted-average fair values of stock options granted during
1997 and 1996 were $7.02 and $0.25, respectively, on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

(d) Stockholders' Agreement (see note 8(h))

The Company is party to a Stockholders' Agreement (the "Stockholders'
Agreement") among all preferred and common stockholders of the Company which
includes restrictions and requirements, certain of which are disclosed below.
The Stockholders' Agreement establishes the composition of the Company's Board
of Directors and provides for restrictions on the transfer of the Company's
shares. Additionally, the Stockholders' Agreement provided for a one-time
dividend to Series A CPS holders equivalent to 4% of the original purchase price
of the Series A CPS. The dividend was cumulative and accrued from April 5, 1993
to April 5, 1994. In no event could the Series A CPS onetime dividend be paid
until payment in full of the senior subordinated note payable. This dividend
payable was classified as noncurrent at December 31, 1996.

The Company was required to reserve at all times common shares sufficient
to satisfy the exercise of all outstanding stock options and warrants, and to
satisfy the conversion of all Series A CPS and Series B CPS.

As a result of the Company's initial public offering in January 1997, the
Stockholders' Agreement was terminated and the dividend payable was paid (see
note 8(h)).

(e) Certain Common Stock Transactions

In July 1994, 116,928 shares of common stock held in treasury were issued
to a stockholder in exchange for an unsecured promissory note of $75,000. The
note bore interest at 8.25% and was payable in three annual installments of
$25,000 each through 1997. A total of $39,000 was repaid on the note and the
remaining balance of $36,000 was forgiven in 1996 as consideration for entering
into a new employment agreement.

(f) Warrants

In 1993, the Company obtained $300,000 in financing through the issuance of
6% convertible unsecured promissory notes with attached warrants to acquire the
Company's common stock. Because the exercise price of the attached warrants
exceeded the fair value of the common stock, the Company allocated the $300,000
of proceeds to notes payable. The notes were convertible into the Company's
Series A CPS at a conversion price of $1.00 per share. In 1994, the notes
payable of $300,000 and accrued interest of $18,000 were converted into 318,000
shares of the Company's Series A CPS. The common stock purchase warrants give
the holders the right to acquire 194,880 shares of the Company's common stock at
an exercise price of $1.54 per share. The common stock purchase warrants expire
on June 23, 1998.

Also, as discussed in note 5, in March 1996, the Company issued to HPSC
warrants to purchase 298,150 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise
price of $.015 per share. The common stock purchase warrants were exercised
subsequent to December 31,1997.

(g) Common Stock Reverse Split

In December 1996, the Company's Board of Directors approved an amendment to
its certificate of incorporation which effected a 0.6496-for-one reverse stock
split. All references to common stock, stock options,

F-18
<PAGE> 62

and warrants in these consolidated financial statements have been adjusted to
reflect this amendment as if it had occurred prior to January 1, 1995.

(h) Initial Public Offering

On January 31, 1997, the Company sold 2,300,000 shares of its common stock
in an initial public offering in which it received approximately $22,626,000,
net of offering expenses of approximately $750,000. As a result of the
consummation of the offering, the Series A CPS and Series B CPS were converted
into 1,021,809 shares of common stock of the Company, the HPSC Agreement was
terminated, and the Stockholders' Agreement was terminated. In addition, all of
the Company's dividends payable and debt, excluding obligations under capital
leases, were repaid.

(9) MAJOR CUSTOMER

For the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, one customer
accounted for approximately 16%, 15%, and 9%, respectively, of total revenues.

(10) NOTE RECEIVABLE FROM OFFICER

In June 1996, the Company loaned $112,500 to an officer of the Company in
the form of an unsecured promissory note. The note is to be repaid in five equal
annual installments of $22,500 each, due and payable on the first through fifth
anniversaries of the date of the note. Interest accrues at a rate of 8.25% per
annum and is due and payable by the officer on the date each principal payment
is due. The first annual installment of $22,500 was paid in June 1997.

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

Article VI of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Registrant sets forth
the extent to which the Registrant's directors and officers may be indemnified
against liabilities they may incur while serving in such capacities. Such
indemnification will be provided to the fullest extent allowed by the Delaware
General Corporation Law, as amended from time to time. Under these
indemnification provisions, the Registrant is required to indemnify any of its
directors and officers against any reasonable expenses (including attorneys'
fees) incurred by him in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding, whether
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, to which he was made a party,
or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, by reason of the fact that
he is or was a director or officer of the Registrant or who, while a director or
officer of the Registrant, is or was serving at the Registrant's request as a
director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise to
the extent that such director or officer has been successful, on the merits or
otherwise, in such defense. The Registrant is also required to indemnify any of
its directors or officers against any liability incurred in connection with any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the
right of the Registrant, in which event, additional determinations must be made
before indemnification is provided) by reason of the fact that he is or was a
director or officer of the Registrant who, while a director or officer of the
Registrant, is or was serving at the Registrant's request as a director,
officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, if
such director or officer acted in a manner he believed in good faith to be in,
or not opposed to, the best interests of the Registrant, and with respect to any
criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was
unlawful. The Registrant may also provide advances of expenses incurred by a
director or officer in defending any such action, suit or proceeding upon
receipt of a written affirmation of such officer or director that he has met
certain standards of conduct and an understanding by or on behalf of such
officer or director to repay such advances unless it is ultimately determined
that he is entitled to indemnification by the Registrant.

II-1
<PAGE> 65

The Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation contains a provision which
eliminates, to the fullest extent permitted by law, director liability for
monetary damages for breaches of the fiduciary duty of care or any other duty as
a director.

The Registrant has entered into an Indemnification Agreement (the
"Indemnification Agreement") with each of its directors and officers. The
Indemnification Agreement sets forth certain procedural matters relating to
indemnification, including the manner in which an indemnified party may make a
claim and the right of an indemnified party to court adjudication of his or her
claim if indemnification is denied by the Registrant.

The Registrant maintains an insurance policy insuring the Registrant and
directors and officers of the Registrant against certain liabilities including
liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933.

Reference is hereby made to Section 7 of the Underwriting Agreement, the
form of which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 hereto, in which the Registrant agrees to
indemnify the Underwriters and certain other persons against certain civil
liabilities.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that:

(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act
of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part
of this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in
a form of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or
(4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this
Registration Statement as of the time it was declared effective.

(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of
prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to
the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that
time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

requirements for filing on Form S-3 and has duly caused this Registration
