     Footnote disclosures which would substantially duplicate those contained
     in the December 31, 1996 audited financial statements have been omitted
     from this report.

     On March 31, 1997, Medical Income Properties 2A Limited Partnership (the

     long-term care facilities in Alabama, Texas and Illinois, and the personal
     property and intangible assets related to the operation of those
     facilities (the "Properties").  The Properties in Alabama and Texas were
     sold to Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc., a Maryland corporation
     ("Omega"), pursuant to the asset Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of
     February 3, 1997 (the "Sale Agreement"), by and among the Partnership,
     Qualicorp Management, Inc., the managing general partner of the
     Partnership, and Omega as previously reported by the Partnership.  The
     Properties in Illinois were sold to OHI (Illinois), Inc. an Illinois
     corporation ("OHI"), because of an assignment of certain rights of Omega
     to OHI under the Sale Agreement.

     Aggregate net proceeds from the sale of the Properties was $19,499,627.
     The net proceeds and other assets of the Partnership will be distributed

     Form 8-K filed February 18, 1997 and July 18, 1997.  In addition, included
     in cash and equivalents is an escrow account for $904,550 which is subject
     to the terms of the indemnification provision of the Sale Agreement.

     In connection with the closing of the sale of the Properties, the
     Partnership entered into an interim lease of the Properties pursuant to
     the terms of the Sale Agreement and under which the Partnership provided
     for management and operation of the Properties for an interim period.  The

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


Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and equivalents balances totaled $4,636,411 at June 30, 1997, an increase
of $2,991,737 from December 31, 1996.  As noted in Footnote 2 of the financial
statement, the Partnership has sold its operating assets.  The Partnership is
presently collecting its remaining accounts receivables, paying vendors the
remaining balances owed and filing terminating Medicare and Medicaid cost
reports.

The Partnership made the first installment of the liquidation proceeds totaling
$18,694,917 or $1,003 per unit on May 12, 1997.  As of June 30, 1997, limited
partners had not surrendered 1102 limited partnership certificates to the
Managing General Partner and consequently, the Partnership had not released
$1,105,306 to those limited partners.  At June 30, 1997 that amount was
included in accounts payable.

In addition, on July 11, 1997, the Partnership distributed $2,609,460 or $140
per unit to the limited partners.  The Partnership had planned to distribute
$134 in March 1998; however, the Managing General Partner felt that sufficient
cash was available to pay this distribution now instead of waiting until March
1998.  The Managing General Partner will evaluate in March 1998 whether the
cash balances then on hand exceed necessary reserves; however, should the
estimated settlement liabilities change or a claim asserted under the
indemnification provision of the Sale Agreement be made, then such claims or
settlement could reduce the funds available for future distribution.  Should
funds on hand exceed necessary reserves in March 1998, the Managing General
Partner may make a distribution of the excess funds.


Operations

The Partnerships' net loss for the quarter ended June 30, 1997 was $11,389.
Included in the loss is an adjustment to the gain on the nursing home property
of $142,236.  The remaining operating income of $130,847 was attributed to
interest earned on invested funds, additions to the Medicare settlement
liabilities, and cost reimbursements.  It is anticipated that the future close
down expenses of the Partnership will approximate $415,000, exclusive of any
changes to the estimated settlement liabilities or claims asserted under the
indemnification provision of the sales agreements.
