Company), commencing at page FS-1, have been prepared in accordance with the
requirements of Regulation S-B; supplementary financial information included

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations

General


   The following discussion provides a comparative analysis of the consolidated
results of operations of the Company and its affiliated physician groups for the
quarters ended March 31, 1996 and 1995. This analysis and the financial
statements referred to in Item 1, above, should be read in conjunction with the
audited financial statements of the Company included in its Annual Report on
Form 10-KSB.



Quarter Ended March 31, 1996 Compared to Quarter Ended March 31, 1995

   Net Service Revenues. Net service revenues increased by $1.2 million or 36%
from $3.2 million to $4.4 million. This increase is attributable to a 23%
increase in the number of patients treated in hospital emergency departments
(from approximately 44,000 to approximately 54,000) coupled with a 10% increase
in average revenue per patient (from $73.92 in 1995 to $81.19 in 1996). During
the 1995 quarter, 12 emergency departments were served throughout the period and
1 emergency department was served for 1 month. During the 1996 quarter, 11
emergency departments were served throughout the period, 2 emergency departments
were served for 2 months and 3 additional emergency departments were served for
1 month. The 5 additional emergency departments which were served for only a
portion of the 1996 quarter, represent 5 of 9 additional emergency departments
that the Company will be serving pursuant to its agreement with the Houston
Division of Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corporation. Service at the remaining 4
emergency departments is scheduled to commence between April 1 and July 1, 1996.
Additionally, emergency department services at 2 non-Columbia owned hospitals
were terminated effective April 30, 1996.

                                        1

   Direct Expenses. Direct expenses increased $849 thousand or 32% from $2.7
million to $3.5 million. Fees paid to independent contract physicians increased
$623 thousand and represented 64% of net service revenues in 1996 compared to
68% in 1995. The comparative decrease, from 1995 to 1996 as a percent of
revenues, is the result of more efficient utilization of physicians (i.e.
increase in patients treated per physician). Billing and collection costs
increased $129 thousand or 41%. During the 1995 period, 1 hospital contract was
compensated on a direct reimbursement basis and did not incur billing and
collection costs, whereas during 1996, all contracts are fee-for-service.
Insurance and other costs increased $97 thousand or 68% from 1995. This increase
is attributable to an increase in insurance rates which are charged on a per
patient visit basis.

   Operating Expenses. Operating expenses increased $371 thousand or 105% from
$353 thousand to $724 thousand. This increase is primarily attributable to human
resource costs which increased $244 thousand between the periods because of an
increase in administrative personnel necessitated by increased recruiting,
credentialing and administrative activities associated with the new hospital
contracts obtained during the first quarter of 1996. Occupancy costs increased
by $43 thousand from 1995 because of the May 1995 move into different and larger
office facilities. Outside services increased by $59 thousand from 1995
primarily because of additional administrative costs associated with the Company
becoming publicly owned during the second quarter of 1995.

   Income Taxes. Income taxes were provided during 1995 at the standard federal
corporate rate of 34%. During 1996, the rate increased to approximately 36%
because of state income (franchise) taxes. The Company has no significant book
to tax differences.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

   On April 10, 1996, the Company increased its $600,000 revolving bank line of
credit to $1,500,000 to assist in the financing of increasing patient accounts
receivable associated with new contracts. The Company borrowed $600,000 from the
line on that date. The Company is discussing, with several banks, a larger line
of credit to be implemented upon completion of its pending reorganization with
the AmHealth companies and is also exploring alternatives regarding a secondary
offering of equity securities subsequent to the pending reorganization.

                                     PART II
Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

   The Company is not presently a party to any material litigation, nor, to the
knowledge of Management, is any such litigation presently threatened.

                                        2

Item 6.  Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K

   A Form 8-K dated January 31, 1996 (Item 2) and amendment number 1 thereto on
Form 8-K/A (Item 7) were filed reporting the acquisition of assets of HEMA and
Amedica. The Form 8-K/A included summary financial statements of Amedica and
pro-forma financial data relating to both transactions.

                              STAT HEALTHCARE, INC.
                          Notes to Financial Statements
                                 March 31, 1996

(1)  Financial Statement Presentation

   The accompanying financial statements of STAT Healthcare, Inc. (the Company)
present financial information for the quarters ended March 31, 1996 and 1995.
Because these financial statements are unaudited and do not include all
disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles, they should be
read in conjunction with the Company's audited annual financial statements. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
estimates) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial information for
the periods reported have been made. Results of operations for the quarter ended
March 31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending
December 31, 1996.

   Consolidated income statement and cash flow information combines the results
of operations and cash flows of the Company and its affiliated physician groups.
Assets and liabilities arising from the consolidated operations are included in
the balance sheet of the Company.

(2)  Net Income Per Common Share

   Net income per common share is computed based on the number of common and
common equivalent shares of the Company. Equivalent shares are attributable to
outstanding warrants and options to purchase common shares.

(3)  Pending Plan of Reorganization

   On March 15, 1996, the Company entered into an amended agreement and plan of
reorganization with AmHealth Corporation and its related corporate and
partnership entities (AmHealth). A new company, New STAT Healthcare (New STAT)
was organized by the Company to act as a constituent entity in the
reorganization. New STAT currently has no business activity unrelated to the
reorganization. The closing of the proposed reorganization is contingent upon,
among other things, the requisite approval of the security holders of the
Company and AmHealth.

   If the proposed reorganization is consummated, the Company will be merged
with a wholly owned subsidiary of New STAT, the AmHealth corporate entities will
be merged into New STAT and the partnership interests of AmHealth partners
electing to participate in the transaction will be acquired by New STAT. Common
stock and related warrants and options to purchase common stock of the Company
will be converted on a share per share basis into shares, warrants and options
of New STAT. Additionally, up to 11,200,000 shares of New STAT common stock will
be
                                      FS-5

issued in exchange for outstanding ownership interests in AmHealth. The proposed
merger transaction is expected to be accounted for as a pooling of interests.

   New STAT filed a Form S-4 Registration Statement relating to this
reorganization with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 18, 1996.
The Form was subsequently amended on April 22 and May 8, 1996. Upon its becoming
effective, a joint prospectus and proxy statement describing the merger and
seeking its approval will be mailed to security holders of the Company and
AmHealth.

   Following is unaudited summarized pro forma income statement information of
New STAT (the combined companies) for the quarters ended March 31, 1996 and 1995
as if the merger was completed at the beginning of each period:
