                        NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.  Description of Business:

    Effective December 31, 1997, National Medical Financial Services 
Corporation (the "Company") restructured its operations and wrote-off all 
of the contracts it had acquired during the period from June 1995 through 
August 1997.  Additionally, the contracts the Company had with medical 
service providers that were owned by, controlled by or affiliated with the 
Company's Chairman and principal stockholder (the "Chairman") had expired on 
September 30, 1997 and were not renewed.  No further revenues or related 
subcontract expenses (except for incidental income) were recognized after 
that date.

    As part of the restructuring, the Company announced that it plans to 
strategically align and affiliate itself, through acquisitions and 
partnerships, with established companies that offer billing and collection 
and practice management services to medical service providers.  Following the 
consummation of such acquisitions and partnerships, the Company will provide 
access to offshore labor and high technology.  The Company will also attempt 
to acquire the service component of certain medical service providers that 
perform their own billing functions.

2.  Basis of Presentation:

    The accompanying unaudited statements of the Company have been prepared 
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim 
financial information.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the 
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting 
principles for complete financial information.  In the opinion of management, 
all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been 
included.  Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 1998 
are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be 
expected for the year ending December 31, 1998.

3.  Accounts Receivable:

     Accounts receivables consisted of the following at March 31, 1998 and

4.  Notes Receivable:

    On May 1, 1996, the Company entered into a transaction with First United 
Equities Corporation ("First United"), a broker-dealer registered with the 
Securities and Exchange Commission.  First United was the principal market 
maker in the Company's Common Stock.  Pursuant to the transaction, the 
Company loaned $5,200,000 through a series of advances evidenced by a 
promissory note bearing interest at 10%.  Such note was due and payable on 
demand with seven days notice.  The note was collateralized by the guarantees 
of the principals of First United.  On May 29, 1996, First United repaid 
$2,000,000 to the Company.  Effective October 1, 1996, the remaining balance 
on the note and accrued interest was satisfied through the establishment of 
an unsecured note due from Russell Data Services, Inc., a Nevada corporation 
("Russell Data"), which was owned by EquiMed, Inc., a publicly traded company 
which is controlled by the Company's Chairman and principal stockholder (the 
"Chairman"), in the amount of $3,344,200.  The note bears interest at 10% and 
established a payment schedule of $1,000,000 each at January 15, April 15 and 
July 15, 1997 plus accrued interest thereon, with the remaining balance and 
interest thereon due on September 30, 1997.  On February 10, 1997, the 
Company received

$1,104,800 in principal and accrued interest from Russell Data in accordance 
with the payment schedule.  The balance of the scheduled payments were due on 
September 30, 1997.  The Company did not receive any additional payments 
during this time.  On January 6, 1998, March 4, 1998 and April 21, 1998, the 
Company received additional principal payment of $915,000, $80,000 and 
$30,000, respectively, leaving an outstanding principal balance of 
$1,319,200.  In the opinion of management, this amount is fully collectible.

    On May 23, 1997, the Company loaned $250,000, evidenced by a promissory 
note, to EquiMed Pakistan (Private) Limited, a Pakistan company ("EquiMed 
Pakistan"), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of EquiMed.  The promissory 
note bears interest at 12% and was scheduled to be repaid on September 22, 
1997.  Such repayment has not yet occurred.  In the opinion of management, 
this amount is fully collectible.

5.  Business Acquisitions:

    On January 6, 1998, the Company entered into an Accounting Business Asset 
Purchase Agreement with Morris Maybruch D/B/A Maybruch & Co. and a Medical 
Billing Business Asset Purchase Agreement with Morris Maybruch and Shoreline 
Medical Billing Systems, Inc., a New York corporation, pursuant to which Mr. 
Maybruch sold the assets and operations of his accounting and medical 
business.  The purchase price for the assets and business operations was 
$913,700 in cash and 163,405 shares of the Company's Common Stock based on a 
value of $2.45 per share.  Under the terms of the Agreements, additional 
shares of the Company's Common Stock may be issued if its closing price 
decreases over a defined period.  The transaction was accounted for as the 
purchase.

7.  Long-term Debt, continued:

    Interest paid during the three month periods ended March 31, 1998 and 
1997 was $5,800 and $1,500, respectively.

8.  Common Stock:

    On December 24, 1997, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a 
one for ten reverse stock split and no corresponding increase in the number 
of authorized shares of the Company's Common Stock, which would remain at 
40,000,000 shares pursuant to Section 78.207 of the Nevada General 
Corporation Law (the "Reverse Split").  Following the Reverse Split, rather 
than issue fractional shares or pay cash to such persons otherwise entitled 
to receive fractional shares, the Company would round up to the nearest whole 
share of Common Stock held by each stockholder.  Under Nevada law, the 
affirmative vote of the stockholders holding a majority of voting power of 
Common Stock is required to approve the amendment to the Company's 
Certificate of Incorporation that would be filed in connection with the 
Reverse Split.  The close of business on December 31, 1997, was fixed by the 
Board of Directors as the record date (the "Record Date") for determination 
of stockholders entitled to execute written consents to authorize the Reverse 
Split.  An Information Statement was mailed on or before January 13, 1998, 
with the Company planning on taking all necessary action to consummate the 
Reverse Split on or before February 10, 1998.  On February 10, 1998, 
approximately 61.0% of the eligible stockholders, which constituted a 
majority vote, had voted in favor of the Reverse Split.  The Reverse Split 
was distributed on February 10, 1998 and all stock related data in the 
financial statements reflect the Reverse Split for all periods presented.

    On March 13, 1998, the Company repriced the stock options previously 
granted to the current officers and directors in order to maintain a 
competitive compensation package to retain the current officers and directors 
of the Company.  The stock options previously granted to those individuals 
were repriced at an exercise price of $1.63 per share, the fair market value 
on that date.

Item 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION 
          AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 

    The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the attached 
financial statements and notes thereto, and with the Company's audited 
financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 
1997.

Important Factors Regarding Forward Looking Statements

    Some of the information presented in this report constitutes forward 
looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation 
Reform Act of 1995 relating to the Company's future business and results of 
operations.  Although the Company believes that its expectations are based on 
reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its knowledge of its business and 
operations, there can be no assurance that actual results of operations or 
the results of the Company's marketing and acquisition activities and will 
not differ materially from its expectations.  Factors which could cause 
actual results to differ from expectations include, among others, uncertainty 
as to whether the Company's marketing activities will result in an expansion 
of its client base or lead to additional acquisitions and affiliation with 
established companies that offer billing and collection and practice 
management services to Medical Service Providers, uncertainties related to 
state and federal governmental regulation of the Company's business, 
uncertainties related to the demand for the services provided by the Company, 
uncertainties to provide access to offshore labor and high technology, and 
the uncertainty of whether the combination of operating cash flows, the 
proceeds remaining from the Company's initial public offering and repayment 
of accounts and notes receivables and income tax refunds will be sufficient 
to fund the Company's growth and operations over the next twelve months.  
Specific reference is made to risks and uncertainties described in the 
Company's Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-11381).

Results of Operations

Quarters Ended March 31, 1998 and March 31, 1997

    Total revenues for the quarters ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 were 
$510,100 and $2,382,800, respectively, a decrease of approximately 78.6%. 
None of the 1998 revenues were derived from the Company's contracts with 
Medical Service Providers owned by, controlled by, or affiliated with the 
Chairman, as compared to 47.1% of the 1997 revenues.  These contracts expired 
on September 30, 1997 and were not renewed.  Accordingly, no further revenues 
were recognized after that date.  An additional reason for the decrease in 
revenues is due to the write-off as of December 31, 1997 of all of the 
acquired contracts to provide billing and collection services it had acquired 
during the period from June 30, 1995 through August 1, 1997. The acquired 
contracts were not providing sufficient cash flows to support the Company's 
operations.  The Company's revenues in 1998 were derived solely from the 
operations it had acquired effective January 1, 1998. Revenues earned for the 
quarter ended March 31, 1998 consisted of $420,100, or 82.4% of revenues, for 
billing and collection services, and $90,000, or 17.6% of revenues, for 
accounting services.  Revenues earned for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 
consisted of $2,224,300, or 93.4% of revenues, for billing and collection 
services, and $138,900, or 5.8% of revenues, for accounting services, and 
$19,600, or 0.8% of revenues, for late charges and consulting services.  The 
percentage of revenues attributable to billing and collection services as 
compared to accounting services has decreased due to the change in contracts 
due to their expiration or being written-off.

    During the quarters ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company incurred 
direct cost of services of $483,100 and $1,654,200, respectively. Effective 
January 1, 1998, the Company acquired the assets and operations of two 
businesses that provided the accounting and medical billing services for the 
Company's operations, whereas during the first quarter of 1997, the Company 
incurred subcontract expenses in the amount for services rendered. 
Substantially all of the costs incurred in 1997 were payable to Russell Data. 
 The Company reported operating income of $27,000, loss before taxes of 
$107,000, net loss of $107,000 and basic loss per share of $0.06 for the 
quarter ended March 31, 1998.  The Company reported operating income of 
$728,600, income before taxes of $552,000, net income of $371,000 and basic 
earnings per share of $0.25 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997.  The 
reasons for the decreases in operating income, income before taxes and net 
income for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 as compared to the same period of 
1997 were due to the contracts which expired on September 30, 1997 and were 
not renewed and the write-off of acquired contracts on December 31, 1997.

    The Company incurred selling, general and administrative expenses of 
$152,200 and $152,800 for the quarters ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, 
respectively.  Those expenses consisted primarily of salaries 
and related benefits, insurance expense and professional fees.  

    The Company experienced an operating loss of $9,200,600 in 1997, which 
resulted in net operating loss carryforwards totaling $4,750,000 that will be 
available to offset future taxable income.  These net operating loss 
carryforwards will be available through the year 2012.  The Company's 
effective tax rate was 32.8% for the 

                                        9

quarter ended March 31, 1997.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

    At March 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of 
$309,500 and $2,401,700, respectively.  

    The Company realized net income (loss) from operations of ($107,000) and 
$371,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  
During the three month periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company had 
net cash provided by (used in) operations of $150,000 and ($981,000), 
respectively.  The Company had net cash provided by (used in) investing 
activities of ($134,400) and $595,300 for the three months ended March 31, 
1998 and 1997, respectively.  The Company had net cash used in financing 
activities of $23,600 and $94,600 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 
and 1997, respectively.

    On March 1, 1997, the Company acquired a contract to provide billing and 
collection services to certain medical service providers in Rhode Island.  
The total consideration paid was $165,000, consisting of $100,000 in cash and 
1,445 shares of Common Stock valued at $45.00 per share.  In accordance with 
the purchase agreement, the Company placed these shares into escrow.  Fewer 
shares will ultimately be released if certain revenue levels are not 
maintained.  At December 31, 1997, 1,445 shares of Common Stock held in 
escrow will be released by the Company in 1998.

    On March 1, 1997, the Company acquired a contract to provide billing and 
collection services to certain medical service providers in the Cleveland, 
Ohio area.  The total consideration paid was $500,000, consisting of $300,000 
in cash and 4,445 shares of Common Stock valued at $45.00 per share.  In 
accordance with the purchase agreement, the Company placed these shares into 
escrow.  Fewer shares will ultimately be released if certain revenue levels 
are not maintained.  At December 31, 1997, 4,445 shares of Common Stock held 
in escrow will be released by the Company in 1998.

    On August 1, 1997, the Company acquired twelve contracts to provide 
billing and collection services to certain medical service providers in 
Arizona.  The total consideration paid was $1,800,000, consisting of $600,000 
in cash, 38,400 shares of Common Stock valued at $15.60 per share and 
promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $600,000.  In accordance with the 
purchase agreement, the Company placed the shares into escrow. The Common 
Stock and promissory notes will be subject to total or partial forfeiture if 
certain revenue levels are not maintained.  At December 31, 1997, 38,400 
shares of Common Stock held in escrow will be returned to the Company and the 
promissory notes were written-off.

    Effective December 31, 1997, the Company terminated the contracts that 
were purchased in 1995 through 1997, because they were not providing 
sufficient cash flows to support the Company's operations.  At December 31, 
1997, these purchased contracts had a book value of $8,000,400, net of 
amortization.  At December 31, 1997, 77,276 shares of the Company's Common 
Stock were being held in escrow pending achievement of targeted revenue 
levels on these contracts.  Since the revenue levels on certain contracts 
were not sufficient to require full release of shares maintained in escrow, 
58,400 shares valued at $1,000,000 will not be released and will be returned 
to the Company in 1998.

    In addition, the contracts with entities owned by, controlled by or 
affiliated with the Company's Chairman expired on September 30, 1997 and were 
not renewed.  Accordingly, no further revenues and related subcontract 
expenses (except some incidental income) were recognized after that date. The 
Company had a net write-off of $129,800 from entities owned by, controlled by 
or affiliated with the Company's Chairman.

    The effects of the net operating loss experienced in the 1997 of 
$9,200,600 created a net loss of $2,597,600 to be carried back to obtain 
refunds of income taxes paid in 1994 through 1996 of $1,355,900.  In 
addition, refunds of estimated tax payments made in 1997 and tax overpayments 
in prior years amount to $400,700, which will be refunded. The Company has 
net operating loss carryforwards totaling $4,750,000 that will be available 
to offset future taxable income.  These net operating loss carryforwards will 
be available through the year 2012.

    On January 1, 1998, as part of its new operating strategy, the Company 
acquired the assets and operations of Shoreline Medical Billing Systems, Inc. 
and Maybruch & Co., two privately-owned companies which perform physician 
billing and collection and various practice management and accounting 
services.  The total consideration paid was $1,313,700, consisting of 
$913,700 in cash and 163,405 shares of Common Stock valued at $2.45 per 
share.  In accordance with the purchase agreements, additional shares of 
Common Stock may be issued if the price of the Common Stock falls below 
certain levels.

    On May 1, 1996, the Company entered into a transaction with First United, 
a broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  
First United is the principal market maker in the Company's common stock.  
Pursuant to the transaction, the Company loaned $5,200,000 in a series of 
advances evidenced by a promissory note bearing interest at 10%.  Such note 
was due and payable on demand with seven days notice.  

                                       10
<PAGE>

The note was collateralized by the guarantees of the principals of First 
United.  On May 29, 1996, First United repaid $2,000,000 to the Company. 
Effective October 1, 1996, the remaining balance on the note and accrued 
interest was satisfied through the establishment of an unsecured note due 
from Russell Data in the amount of $3,344,200.  The note bears interest at 
10% and established a payment schedule which would have resulted in the 
balance being paid in full by September 15, 1997.  On February 10, 1997, the 
Company received $1,104,800 of principal and accrued interest from Russell 
Data representing the first in the series of scheduled payments.  The balance 
of the scheduled payments were due on September 30, 1997.  The Company did 
not receive any additional payments during that time period. On January 6, 
1998, March 4, 1998 and April 21, 1998 the Company received additional 
principal payment of $915,000, $80,000 and $30,000, respectively, leaving an 
outstanding principal balance of $1,319,200.  In the opinion of management, 
this amount is fully collectible.

    On May 23, 1997, the Company loaned $250,000, evidenced by a promissory 
note, to EquiMed Pakistan which bears interest at 12% and was scheduled to be 
repaid on September 22, 1997.  Such repayment has not yet occurred.  

    As of March 31, 1998, certain of the medical service providers, which are 
owned by, controlled by, or affiliated with the Chairman, owed $2,008,500 to 
the Company.  Since these contracts expired on September 30, 1997 and were 
not renewed, there was no additional amounts billed to these entities since 
December 31, 1997.  Since December 31, 1997, the Company has received 
$1,000,000 relating to these receivables and has paid Russell Data $750,000 
for services related to these amounts.  As of March 31, 1998 and 1997, the 
Company owed Russell Data $1,465,100 and $253,500, respectively, for services 
provided.  Included in the 1997 amount is prepayments of $1,042,000 the 
Company made to Russell Data for the benefit of the acquired contracts which 
were indirectly subcontracted to the former President and Chief Executive 
Officer.  As of December 31, 1997, these contracts were written-off since 
they were not providing sufficient cash flows to support the Company's 
operations.

    The Company's principal sources of liquidity are anticipated to be cash 
flows from operations, proceeds remaining from the Company's initial public 
offering, repayment of accounts and notes receivables and income tax refunds. 
 The Company expects to fund future acquisitions of contracts and future 
acquisitions of businesses by a combination of funds available through the 
cash from operations, proceeds remaining from the initial public offering, 
repayment of the accounts and notes receivables, income tax refunds and 
issuance of Common Stock and promissory notes.  A similar funding strategy is 
anticipated to be used in its future business growth. The Company anticipates 
that cash flow from operations, the proceeds remaining from the initial 
public offering, repayment of the accounts and notes receivables and income 
tax refunds will be adequate to fund its operations for the next twelve 
months, although there can be no assurance to that effect.
