             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements (interim
financial statements) include the accounts of Per-Se Technologies, Inc. and its
subsidiaries ("Per-Se" or the "Company"). Intercompany accounts and transactions
have been eliminated.

     These interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
("GAAP") for interim financial information, the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial statements, and
accounting policies consistent, in all material respects, with those applied in
preparing the Company's audited consolidated financial statements included in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2004, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March 16,
2005 ("2004 Form 10-K"). These interim financial statements are unaudited but
reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) management
considers necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position,
operating results and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The
information included in this report should be read in conjunction with the 2004
Form 10-K.

     The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been presented to
reflect the former operations of the Hospital Services division's Patient1
clinical product line ("Patient1") and Business1-PFM patient accounting product
line ("Business1") as discontinued operations. Patient1 was sold effective July
28, 2003, and Business1 was sold effective January 31, 2004. Additionally, the
activity related to the Company's former Medaphis Services Corporation ("MSC")
and Impact Innovations Group ("Impact") businesses, which were sold in 1998 and
1999, respectively, are also reflected as discontinued operations for all
periods presented (refer to Note 8 for additional information).

NOTE 2 -- STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

     On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 123 (revised
2004), Share-Based Payment ("SFAS No. 123(R)"), which is a revision of SFAS No.
123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation ("SFAS No. 123"). SFAS No. 123(R)
supersedes Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees ("APB No. 25"), and amends SFAS No. 95, Statement of
Cash Flows. SFAS No. 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees,
including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income
statement based on their fair values. The original effective date of SFAS 123(R)
was for interim periods beginning after June 15, 2005.

     On April 14, 2005, the SEC announced the adoption of a rule that amends the
compliance date for SFAS 123(R). SFAS 123(R) must be adopted by the Company no
later than January 1, 2006. The Company expects to adopt SFAS 123(R) on January
1, 2006. When the Company adopts SFAS No. 123(R), it may elect the modified
prospective method or the modified retrospective method. The Company has not yet
determined which method it will elect upon adoption.

     At March 31, 2005, the Company has four stock-based compensation plans. The
Company accounts for its stock-based compensation plans under APB No. 25. The
following table illustrates the effect on net income and

provisions of SFAS No. 123 to its stock-based compensation plan.

NOTE 3 -- SHARE REPURCHASE

     On March 9, 2005, the Company announced that its Board of Directors
authorized the repurchase of up to one million shares of the Company's
outstanding Common Stock. Under the share repurchase program, the Company was
able to repurchase shares from time to time at management's discretion in the
open market, by block purchase, in privately negotiated transactions or as
otherwise allowed by securities laws and regulations. All shares repurchased
were placed into treasury stock to be used for general corporate purposes.
During the three months ended March 31, 2005, the Company repurchased
approximately 810,000 shares of its outstanding Common Stock at a cost of
approximately $12.4 million. The Company completed the share repurchase program
in April 2005 by repurchasing an additional approximately 190,000 shares of its
outstanding Common Stock at a cost of approximately $3.0 million.

NOTE 4 -- ADDITIONAL PROCEDURES

     As a result of allegations of improprieties made during 2003 and 2004, the
Company's external auditors advised the Company and the Audit Committee of the
Board of Directors that additional procedures should be performed related to the
allegations. These additional procedures were required due to Statement of
Auditing Standards No. 99, Consideration of Fraud in a Financial Statement
Audit, that became effective for periods beginning on or after December 15,
2002. Due to the volume and, in some cases, vague nature of many of the
allegations, the scope of the additional procedures was broad and extensive. The
additional procedures included the review of certain of the Company's revenues,
expenses, assets and liabilities accounts for the years 2001 through 2003.
Certain financial items were identified during the additional procedures that
warranted the Company's further review. The Company reviewed these items and
determined that it was appropriate to restate certain prior period financial
statements. The restatements affected the financial statements for the years
ended December 31, 2002, and 2001 and for the nine months ended September 30,
2003. The net result of these restatements was an increase in net income of
approximately $2.1 million for the years 2001 and 2002, and for the nine months
ended September 30, 2003.

                   PER-SE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

     NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) -- (CONTINUED)

     The Company recorded costs related to the additional procedures totaling
approximately $3.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2004, and
included these costs in other expenses in the Company's Consolidated Statements
of Income. In Note 13, these expenses are classified in the Corporate segment.

NOTE 5 -- ACQUISITIONS

     On May 28, 2004, the Company entered into a five-year contract to provide
print and mail services for a new customer. As part of the transaction, the
Company purchased substantially all of the production assets and personnel of
that customer's hospital and physician patient statement and paper claims print
and mail business for cash consideration of approximately $1.1 million. In
addition, the Company recorded acquisition liabilities of approximately $1.0
million associated with the transaction.

     The Company recorded the acquisition using the purchase method of
accounting and, accordingly, has allocated the purchase price to the assets
acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair market value at
the date of acquisition. Approximately $1.9 million of the purchase price was
allocated to a finite-lived intangible asset with a five-year life. The
remaining $0.2 million of the purchase price was allocated to tangible assets
acquired. The operating results of the acquisition are included in the Company's
Consolidated Statements of Income from the date of acquisition in the Hospital
Services division.

     The pro-forma impact of this acquisition was immaterial to the financial
statements of the Company and therefore has not been presented.

NOTE 6 -- EARNINGS PER SHARE

     Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is calculated by dividing net income by
the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the
period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common
shares issuable through stock options and warrants. The following sets forth the
computation of basic and diluted net income per share for the three-months ended
March 31, 2005, and 2004:

     Options and warrants to purchase 1.1 million and 0.9 million shares of
Common Stock during the three months ended March 31, 2005, and 2004,
respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share
because the exercise prices of the options and warrants were greater than the
average market price of the common shares, and therefore, the effect would have
been antidilutive.

NOTE 7 -- FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION AND COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

     The functional currency of the Company's operations outside of the United
States is the local country's currency. Consequently, assets and liabilities of
operations outside the United States are translated into dollars using exchange
rates at the end of each reporting period. Revenue and expenses are translated
at the average exchange rates prevailing during the period. Cumulative
translation gains and losses are reported in accumulated other comprehensive
loss. In the three-month periods ended March 31, 2005, and 2004, the only
component of other comprehensive loss was the net foreign currency translation.

NOTE 9 -- LEGAL MATTERS

     On April 4, 2005, the Company announced that it was notified by the SEC of
the issuance of an order of investigation, which it believes relates to
allegations of wrongdoing made by a former employee in 2003 and 2004. These
allegations were the subject of a prior investigation by the audit committee and
an outside accounting firm that resulted in the performance of extensive
additional procedures. See Note 4 above and "Note 2 -- "Other Expenses" in the
Company's Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company's 2004
Form 10-K for more information.

     The Company is subject to claims, litigation and official billing inquiries
arising in the ordinary course of its business. These matters include, but are
not limited to, lawsuits brought by former customers with respect to the
operation of the Company's business. The Company has also received written
demands from customers and former customers that have not resulted in legal
action. Within the Company's industry, federal and state civil and criminal laws
govern medical billing and collection activities. These laws provide for various
fines, penalties,

     NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) -- (CONTINUED)

multiple damages, assessments and sanctions for violations, including possible
exclusion from federal and state healthcare payer programs.

     The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to the claims and
other issues asserted in pending legal matters; however, there can be no
assurance that such matters or any future legal matters will not have an adverse
effect on the Company. Amounts of awards or losses, if any, in pending legal
matters have not been reflected in the financial statements unless probable and
reasonably estimable.

NOTE 10 -- LONG-TERM DEBT

     On September 11, 2003, the Company entered into a $175 million Credit
Agreement (the "Credit Agreement"). The Credit Agreement consisted of a $125
million Term Loan B (the "Term Loan B") and a $50 million revolving credit
facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility"). The Company had approximately $118.8
million outstanding under the Term Loan B as of March 31, 2004, under a
LIBOR-based interest contract, bearing interest at 5.36%. The Company has had no
borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility since its inception.

     On June 30, 2004, the Company issued $125 million aggregate principal
amount of 3.25% Convertible Subordinated Debentures due 2024 (the "Debentures")
to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended. As originally issued, the Debentures were convertible into
shares of the Company's Common Stock at an initial conversion rate of 56.0243
shares per $1,000 principal amount (a conversion price of approximately $17.85)
once the Company's Common Stock share price reaches 130% of the conversion
price, or a share price of approximately $23.20. In November 2004, the Company
exercised its irrevocable option to pay the principal of Debentures submitted
for conversion in cash. The Company will satisfy any amount above the conversion
trigger price of $17.85 through the issuance of Common Stock. The Debentures
mature on June 30, 2024, and are unsecured. Interest on the Debentures is
payable semiannually at the rate of 3.25% per annum on June 30 and December 30
of each year, beginning on December 30, 2004. The Company may redeem the
Debentures either in whole or in part beginning July 6, 2009. The holders may
require the Company to repurchase the Debentures on June 30, 2009, 2014, and
2019, or upon a fundamental change, as defined in the Indenture governing the
Debentures. The Company used the proceeds from issuance of the Debentures,
together with cash on hand, to retire the $118.8 million outstanding under the
Term Loan B, as well as to repurchase, for approximately $25 million, an
aggregate of approximately 2.0 million shares of the Company's outstanding
common stock, at the market price of $12.57 per share, in negotiated
transactions concurrently with the Debentures offering.

     In connection with the sale of the Debentures, the Company agreed to file
with the SEC, within 90 days after the original issuance of the Debentures, a
shelf registration statement with respect to the resale of the Debentures and
the common stock issuable upon conversion of the Debentures. The Company agreed
to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the shelf registration statement
to become effective within 210 days after the original issuance of the
Debentures. On September 15, 2004, the Company filed the shelf registration
statement with the SEC. On March 14, 2005, the shelf registration became
effective. Since the Company was unable to cause the shelf registration
statement to become effective within 210 days after original issuance of the
Debentures, the Company is required to pay an additional 0.25% of interest on
the Debentures from January 26, 2005, through the effective date of the shelf
registration statement, March 14, 2005. The Company expects to pay approximately
$41,000 of additional interest to holders of the Debentures for the period from
January 26, 2005, through March 14, 2005.

     On June 30, 2004, the Company also amended the Revolving Credit Facility to
increase its capacity from $50 million to $75 million, to extend its maturity to
three years, and to lower the interest rate from LIBOR plus amounts ranging from
3.0% to 3.5% to LIBOR plus amounts ranging from 2.5% to 3.0%. The Company did
not incur any borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility in connection with
the retirement of the Term Loan B or the concurrent share repurchase. The
Company intends to use the Revolving Credit Facility, as needed, for

                                        9

     NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) -- (CONTINUED)

future investments in operations, including capital expenditures, strategic
acquisitions, to secure its letters of credit, as needed, and other general
corporate purposes. The Company has not incurred any borrowings under the
Revolving Credit Facility as of March 31, 2005.

     All obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility are fully and
unconditionally guaranteed, on a senior secured basis, jointly and severally by
all of the Company's present and future domestic and material foreign
subsidiaries (the "Subsidiary Guarantors"). The financial statements of the
Subsidiary Guarantors have not been presented, as all subsidiaries, except for
certain minor foreign subsidiaries, have provided guarantees, and the parent
company does not have any significant operations or assets separate from its
investment in those subsidiaries. Any non-guarantor subsidiaries are minor
individually and in the aggregate to the Company's consolidated financial
statements. There are no restrictions on the Subsidiary Guarantors that would
prohibit the transfer of funds or assets to the parent company by dividend or
loan.

     The Revolving Credit Facility contains financial and other restrictive
covenants, including, without limitation, those restricting additional
indebtedness, lien creation, dividend payments, asset sales and stock offerings,
and those requiring a minimum net worth, maximum leverage and minimum fixed
charge coverage, each as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility. The Company
was in compliance with all applicable covenants as of March 31, 2005.

NOTE 11 -- INCOME TAXES

     Income tax expense, which was primarily related to state and local income
taxes, was approximately $0.3 million and $0.2 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2005, and 2004, respectively. The Company has historically had a
full valuation allowance against its deferred tax asset due to the uncertainty
regarding its ability to generate sufficient future taxable income prior to the
expiration of its net operating loss carryforwards. In the fourth quarter of
2004, the Company reassessed the valuation allowance previously established and
determined that it was more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax
asset would be realized in the foreseeable future. This determination was based
upon the Company's projection of taxable income for 2005 and 2006. Accordingly,
a portion of the valuation allowance was released during the fourth quarter of
2004. The Company will continue to assess the potential realization of the
remaining deferred tax asset, and will adjust the valuation allowance in future
periods, as appropriate.

NOTE 12 -- RESTRUCTURING EXPENSES

     The amount of lease termination costs associated with a 1995 restructuring
applied against the reserve in the three months ended March 31, 2005, is as

NOTE 13 -- SEGMENT REPORTING

     The Company's reportable segments are operating units that offer different
services and products. Per-Se provides its services and products through its two
operating divisions: Physician Services and Hospital Services.

     The Physician Services division provides Connective Healthcare solutions
that manage the revenue cycle for physician groups. The division is the largest
provider of business management outsourced services that supplant all or most of
the administrative functions of a physician group related to their revenue
cycle. The target market is primarily hospital-affiliated physician groups in
the specialties of radiology, anesthesiology, emergency medicine and pathology
as well as physician groups practicing in the academic setting and other large
physician groups. The division recognizes revenue primarily on a contingency fee
basis, which aligns the division's interests with the interests of the physician
groups it services. The outsourced services business recognizes revenue as a

                                        10

     NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) -- (CONTINUED)

percentage of the physician group's cash collections for the services performed.
Since this is an outsourced service delivered on the Company's proprietary
technology, license fees or maintenance fees are not required to be paid by the
division's hospital-affiliated physician groups. The division also sells a
physician practice management ("PPM") solution that is delivered via an ASP
model. The PPM solution collects a monthly usage fee from the office-based
physician practices using the system. The division's revenue model is 100%
recurring in nature due to the transaction-based nature of its fee revenue in
the outsourced services business and the monthly usage fee in the PPM business.
The business of the Physician Services division is conducted by PST Services,
Inc. a Georgia corporation d/b/a "Per-Se Technologies," which is a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company.

     The Hospital Services division provides Connective Healthcare solutions
that increase revenue and decrease expenses for hospitals, with a focus on
revenue cycle management and resource management. The division's revenue cycle
management solutions enable a hospital's central billing office to improve its
revenue cycle. The division has one of the largest clearinghouses in the medical
industry, which provides an important infrastructure to support its revenue
cycle offering. The division also provides resource management solutions that
enable hospitals efficiently to manage resources, such as personnel and the
operating room, to reduce costs and improve their bottom line. The division
primarily recognizes revenue on a per-transaction basis for its revenue cycle
management solutions and primarily recognizes revenue on a
percentage-of-completion basis or upon software shipment for sales of its
resource management software solutions. Approximately 88% of the division's
revenue is recurring due to its transaction-based business and the maintenance
revenue from its substantial installed base for the resource management software
solutions. The business of the Hospital Services division is conducted by the
following wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company: Per-Se Transaction Services,
Inc., an Ohio corporation; Patient Account Management Services, Inc., an Ohio
corporation; PST Products, LLC, a California limited liability company; and
Knowledgeable Healthcare Solutions, Inc., an Alabama corporation. All of these
subsidiaries do business under the name "Per-Se Technologies."

     The Company evaluates each segment's performance based on its segment
operating income. Segment operating income is revenue less cost of services,
selling, general and administrative expenses and other expenses.

     The Hospital Services segment revenue includes intersegment revenue for
services provided to the Physician Services segment, which are shown as
eliminations to reconcile to total consolidated revenue.

     NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) -- (CONTINUED)

NOTE 14 -- ENHANCEMENT TO PHYSICIAN CLAIMS CLEARINGHOUSE

     During the latter part of 2004, the Company initiated a project, which is
scheduled to be completed near the end of 2005, to enhance substantially its
physician claims clearinghouse functionality. The Company expects that the
improved platform will provide efficiencies and competitive advantages for its
Physician Services division. The Company expects to incur approximately $5
million in capital expenditures and capitalized software development costs and
between $2.0 million and $2.5 million in expenses, including amortization
expense of approximately $1 million, related to the physician claims
clearinghouse enhancement in 2005. During the first quarter of 2005, the Company
incurred approximately $0.3 million of expenses which are reflected in the
Hospital Services division, and incurred approximately $0.9 million of capital
expenditures and capitalized software development costs related to this project.

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

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

     Per-Se Technologies, Inc. ("Per-Se" or the "Company"), a corporation
organized in 1985 under the laws of the State of Delaware, provides integrated
business management outsourcing services, Internet-enabled connectivity and
administrative software for the healthcare industry. Per-Se delivers its
services and products through its two operating divisions: Physician Services
and Hospital Services.

     The Physician Services division provides business management outsourcing
services to the hospital-affiliated physician practice market, physicians in
academic settings and other large physician practices. The division provides a
complete outsourcing service, therefore, allowing physician groups to avoid the
infrastructure investment in their own in-house billing office. Services include
clinical data collection, data input, medical coding, billing, contract
management, cash collections and accounts receivable management. These services
are designed to assist healthcare providers with the business management
functions associated with the delivery of healthcare services, allowing
physicians to focus on providing quality patient care. These services also
assist physicians in improving cash flows and reducing administrative costs and
burdens. The division's offerings have historically focused on the back-end
processes required to ensure physicians are properly reimbursed for care
delivery. The division also has an ASP-based physician practice management
solution, named MedAxxis, that targets office-based physician groups.

     The Hospital Services division products focus on optimizing the revenue
cycle and improving administrative efficiencies for hospitals. Solutions include
electronic claims processing, referral submissions, eligibility verification and
other electronic and paper transaction processing as well as patient and staff
scheduling systems.

     Per-Se markets its products and services to constituents of the healthcare
industry, primarily to hospital-affiliated physician practices, physician groups
in academic settings, hospitals and integrated delivery networks ("IDNs").

GENERAL OVERVIEW

     Management believes the key elements for assessing the Company's
performance are the ability to generate stable and improving operating profit
margins on existing business, and to generate similar or better operating profit
margins on new business. An additional element is the ability to generate
positive cash flow from continuing operations. In assessing the Company's
performance, adjustments are made for items the Company considers to be
atypical, such as those noted below, to help ensure the analysis is performed on
a consistent, comparable basis from period to period.

     Consolidated revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2005, increased
approximately 9% as compared to the same period of 2004 due to the
implementation of the record level of new business sold during 2004.
Consolidated operating margins increased from 4.6% in the first quarter of 2004
to 11.8% in the first quarter of 2005. During the first quarter of 2004, the
Company incurred approximately $3.9 million in costs associated with the
additional procedures as part of the year-end 2003 audit. Similar costs were not
incurred during the first quarter of 2005. Operating margins also increased due
to the increased revenue in the Physician Services division.

     The Company generated $13.2 million in cash from continuing operations
during the current year quarter compared to a use of cash during the first
quarter of 2004 of $0.7 million. The increase in cash flow from continuing
operations was driven by the Company's increase in profitability.

     During the latter part of 2004, the Company initiated a project to enhance
substantially its physician claims clearinghouse functionality. The Company
expects that the improved platform will provide efficiencies and competitive
advantages for its Physician Services division. The Company expects to incur
approximately $5 million in capital expenditures and capitalized software
development costs and between $2.0 and $2.5 million in expenses, including
amortization expense of approximately $1 million, related to the physician
claims clearinghouse enhancement. During the first quarter of 2005, the Company
incurred approximately $0.3 million of expenses which are reflected in the
Hospital Services division, and incurred approximately $0.9 million of capital
expenditures and capitalized software development costs related to this project.

</Table>

     Revenue for the Physician Services division increased approximately 6% in
the three months ended March 31, 2005, as compared to the same period in 2004.
Pricing for the division's services and products was stable compared to the
prior year period. The revenue increase is due to the implementation of the
record net new business sold during 2004 and the recognition of approximately
$1.5 million of revenue delayed in the quarter ended December 31, 2004, caused
by a technical problem in the claims clearinghouse. Net new business sold during
the first quarter of 2005 was $5 million compared to $12 million during the
first quarter of 2004. Net new business sold in the prior year quarter
represented a record performance for the division. Current year net new business
sold represents the Company's second strongest first quarter performance. Net
new business sold is defined as the annualized revenue value of new contracts
signed in a period, less the annualized revenue value of terminated business in
that same period. Net backlog at March 31, 2005, was approximately $5 million,
compared to the net backlog of approximately $5 million at December 31, 2004.
Net backlog represents the annualized revenue related to new contracts signed
with the business still to be implemented, less the annualized revenue related
to existing contracts where discontinuance notification has been received and
the customer has yet to be phased out. The Company focuses on maintaining a
positive net backlog and believes it is a useful indicator of future revenue
growth.

     Revenue for the Hospital Services division increased approximately 15% for
the three months ended March 31, 2005, as compared to the same period in 2004.
Pricing for the division's services and products was stable compared to the
prior year period. Revenue growth in the division is due to the implementation
of transaction processing new business sold during 2004. Medical transaction
volume increased approximately 26% for the period over the same period of 2004.
Revenue growth does not necessarily correlate directly to transaction volume due
to the mix of services and products sold by the division. The Company believes
transaction volume is a useful indicator of future revenue growth as business is
implemented into the division's recurring revenue model.

     The Hospital Services division revenue includes intersegment revenue for
services provided to the Physician Services division, which is shown in
Eliminations to reconcile to total consolidated revenue.

     Segment Operating Income.  Segment operating income is revenue less cost of
services, selling, general and administrative expenses and other expenses.
Segment operating income, classified by the Company's divisions, is as follows:

     Physician Services' segment operating income increased approximately 44% in
the three months ended March 31, 2005, compared to the same period in 2004,
resulting in operating margins of approximately 12.8% in the three months ended
March 31, 2005, versus approximately 9.4% in the same period in 2004. Margin
expansion in the current year period is the result of revenue growth, including
the recognition of approximately $1.5 million of revenue delayed in the quarter
ended December 31, 2004, caused by a technical problem in the claims
clearinghouse.

     Hospital Services' segment operating income increased approximately 11% in
the three months ended March 31, 2005, compared to the same period in 2004,
resulting in operating margins of approximately 22.7% versus approximately 23.4%
in the prior year period. Included in the current year quarter is approximately
$0.3 million of costs associated with the Company's physician claims
clearinghouse enhancement.

     Corporate overhead expenses, which include certain executive and
administrative functions, decreased approximately $3.8 million or approximately
48% in the three months ended March 31, 2005, compared to the same period in
2004. The decrease is attributable primarily to approximately $3.9 million of
expenses incurred in the three months ended March 31, 2004, to perform the
additional procedures discussed below.

     Other Expenses.  As a result of allegations of improprieties made during
2003 and 2004, the Company's external auditors advised the Company and the Audit
Committee of the Board of Directors that additional procedures should be
performed related to the allegations. These additional procedures were required
due to Statement of Auditing Standards No. 99, Consideration of Fraud in a
Financial Statement Audit, that became effective for periods beginning on or
after December 15, 2002. Due to the volume and, in some cases, vague nature of
many of the allegations, the scope of the additional procedures was broad and
extensive. The additional procedures included the review of certain of the
Company's revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities accounts for the years 2001
through 2003.

     The Company recorded costs related to the additional procedures totaling
approximately $3.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2004, and
included these costs in other expenses in the Company's Consolidated Statements
of Income. In Note 13 of Notes to Financial Statements, these expenses are
classified in the Corporate segment.

     Interest.  Interest expense was approximately $1.5 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2005, as compared to $2.1 million for the same period in
2004. The decrease is attributable to the Company refinancing its debt in June
2004, by issuing $125 million aggregate principal amount of 3.25% Convertible
Subordinated Debentures due 2024. Prior to this refinancing, the interest rate
on the Term Loan B was LIBOR plus 4.25%, or approximately 5.36%, in the first
quarter of 2004. Interest income was approximately $0.3 million for the three-
month period ended March 31, 2005, as compared to approximately $0.1 million for
the same period in 2004.

     Income Taxes.  Income tax expense, which was primarily related to state and
local income taxes, was approximately $0.3 million and $0.2 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2005, and 2004, respectively. The Company has
historically had a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax asset due
to the uncertainty regarding its ability to generate sufficient future taxable
income prior to the expiration of its net operating loss carryforwards. In the
fourth quarter of 2004, the Company reassessed the valuation allowance
previously established and determined that it was more likely than not that a
portion of the deferred tax asset would be realized in the foreseeable future.
This determination was based upon the Company's projection of taxable income for
2005 and 2006. Accordingly, a portion of the valuation allowance was released
during the fourth quarter of 2004. The Company will continue to assess the
potential realization of the remaining deferred tax asset, and will adjust the
valuation allowance in future periods, as appropriate.

     Discontinued Operations.  The Company completed the sale of Patient1 to
Misys Healthcare Systems, a division of Misys plc ("Misys") on July 28, 2003.
The Company completed the sale of Business1 effective January 31, 2004, to a
privately held company for $0.6 million, which will be received in periodic
payments through June 2006. No cash consideration was received at closing.

     Pursuant to SFAS No. 144, the consolidated financial statements of the
Company have been presented to reflect Patient1 and Business1 as discontinued
operations for all periods presented. Patient1 and Business1 were formerly
reported as part of the Hospital Services division.

</Table>

     Unrestricted cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid
investments with an initial maturity of no more than three months at the date of
purchase.

     Restricted cash of approximately $0.1 million at March 31, 2005, and
December 31, 2004, represent amounts collected on behalf of certain Physician
Services and Hospital Services clients, a portion of which is held in trust
until it is remitted to such clients.

     During the three months ended March 31, 2005, the Company generated
approximately $13.2 million in cash from continuing operations as a result of
increased profitability and the timing of payments on certain accruals.

     During the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company used
approximately $0.7 million in cash from continuing operations, which includes
cash generated from normal operations offset by cash payments related to
additional procedures necessary under SAS No. 99 totaling approximately $2.4
million (refer to "Note 4 -- Additional Procedures" in the Company's Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements for more information), the payment of
approximately $3.4 million in expenses and legal settlements related to the
matter with Lloyd's of London (refer to "Note 12 -- Legal Matters" in the
Company's Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company's 2004 Form
10-K for more information) and quarterly interest payments of approximately $1.7
million.

     During the three months ended March 31, 2005, the Company used
approximately $4.7 million in cash from investing activities from continuing
operations primarily for capital expenditures and investment in software
development costs.

     During the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company used
approximately $3.0 million in cash from investing activities from continuing
operations primarily for capital expenditures and investment in software
development costs.

     During the three months ended March 31, 2005, the Company used
approximately $8.4 million in cash from financing activities which included
approximately $9.9 million used for the repurchase of the Company's Common Stock
which was partially offset by proceeds from the exercise of stock options of
approximately $1.4 million.

     On March 9, 2005, the Company announced that the Board authorized the
repurchase of up to 1 million shares of the Company's outstanding Common Stock.
Under the share repurchase program, the Company was able to repurchase shares
from time to time at management's discretion in the open market, by block
purchase, in privately negotiated transactions or as otherwise allowed by
securities laws and regulations. All shares repurchased were placed into
treasury to be used for general corporate purposes. The actual number and timing
of shares to be repurchased will depend on market conditions and certain SEC
rules. Repurchases may be discontinued at any time. During the three months
ended March 31, 2005, the Company repurchased approximately 810,000 shares of
its outstanding Common Stock at a cost of approximately $12.4 million, of which
approximately $9.9 million was paid by March 31, 2005. The Company completed the
share repurchase program in April 2005 by repurchasing an additional
approximately 190,000 shares of its outstanding Common Stock at a cost of
approximately $3.0 million.

     During the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company used
approximately $0.6 million in cash from financing activities. The Company used
$3.1 million for repayment of the Company's long-term debt in accordance with
the mandatory amortization schedule, which was offset by proceeds from the
exercise of stock options of $2.5 million.

     For more information about the Company's long-term debt, refer to "Note
10 -- Long-Term Debt" in the Company's Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements.

     The level of the Company's indebtedness could adversely impact the
Company's ability to obtain additional financing. A substantial portion of the
Company's cash flow from operations could be dedicated to the payment of
principal and interest on its indebtedness.

     The Company is subject to claims, litigation and official billing inquiries
arising in the ordinary course of its business. These matters include pending
lawsuits involving claims that are not required to be separately described in
this report, including a claim for breach of contract arising from a prior
acquisition. That claim is currently scheduled to go to binding arbitration in
the second quarter of 2005. The Company believes that it has meritorious
defenses to the claims and other issues asserted in such matters; however, there
can be no assurance that such matters or any future legal matters will not have
an adverse effect on the Company. Amounts of awards or losses, if any, in
pending legal matters have not been reflected in the financial statements unless
probable and reasonably estimable.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

     Certain statements included in the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations, and elsewhere in this report including but not limited to
certain statements set forth under the captions "Note 2 -- Stock-Based
Compensation Plans," "Note 9 -- Legal Matters," "Note 10 -- Long-Term Debt,"
"Note 11 -- Income Taxes," "Results of Operations" and "Liquidity and Capital
Resources," are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the
Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended by
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Reform Act").
Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the Company's
expectations with respect to meritorious defenses to the claims and other issues
asserted in pending legal matters, the effect of industry and regulatory changes
on the Company's customer base, the impact of revenue backlog on future revenue,
adoption of accounting standard regarding expensing of stock options, payment of
additional interest to convertible debenture holders, future appropriateness of
deferred tax asset valuation allowance, overall profitability and the
availability of capital. Although the Company believes that the statements it
has made are based on reasonable assumptions, they are based on current
information and beliefs and, accordingly, the Company can give no assurance that
its expectations will be achieved. In addition, these statements are subject to
factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
suggested by the forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not
limited to, factors identified below under the
                                        18

caption "Factors That May Affect Future Results of Operations, Financial
Condition or Business" and "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about
Market Risk." The Company disclaims any responsibility to update any
forward-looking statements.

FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, FINANCIAL CONDITION OR
BUSINESS

     Per-Se provides the following risk factor disclosures in connection with
its continuing efforts to qualify its written and oral forward-looking
statements for the safe harbor protection of the Reform Act and any other
similar safe harbor provisions. Important factors currently known to management
that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in
forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following:

  IF THE COMPANY FAILS TO MAINTAIN AN EFFECTIVE SYSTEM OF INTERNAL CONTROLS, THE
  COMPANY MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ACCURATELY REPORT THE COMPANY'S FINANCIAL RESULTS
  ON A TIMELY BASIS. AS A RESULT, CURRENT AND POTENTIAL STOCKHOLDERS COULD LOSE
  CONFIDENCE IN THE COMPANY'S FINANCIAL REPORTING WHICH WOULD HARM THE COMPANY'S
  BUSINESS AND THE TRADING PRICE OF THE COMPANY'S STOCK.

     As a result of errors that led to the restatements of the Company's
financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2001, and 2002, and the
nine months ended September 30, 2003, the Company's independent auditors
determined that a material weakness related to the Company's internal controls
existed. The Company's auditors reported to the Company that the errors that
resulted in the restatements were the result of not having appropriate controls
over the estimation process associated with the establishment of accruals and
reserves and the lack of adequate supervision of accounting personnel. While the
Company has taken steps to improve controls in these areas, the Company cannot
be certain that these steps will ensure that it implements and maintains
adequate controls over financial processes and reporting in the future. Failure
to maintain adequate controls of this type could adversely impact the accuracy
and future timeliness of the Company's financial reports filed pursuant to the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934. If the Company cannot provide reliable and
timely financial reports, its business and operating results could be harmed,
investors could lose confidence in its reported financial information, its
common stock could be delisted from the Nasdaq Stock Market, and the trading
price of its common stock could fall.

  THE COMPANY HAS A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF LONG-TERM DEBT AND OBLIGATIONS TO MAKE
  PAYMENTS, WHICH COULD LIMIT THE COMPANY'S FUNDS AVAILABLE FOR OTHER
  ACTIVITIES.

     The Company has approximately $125 million of long-term indebtedness and
$0.6 million in capital lease obligations and, as a result, is required to make
interest and principal payments. If unable to make the required debt payments,
the Company could be required to reduce or delay capital expenditures, sell
certain assets, restructure or refinance the Company's indebtedness, or seek
additional equity capital. The Company's ability to make payments on the
Company's debt obligations will depend on future operating performance, which
may be affected by conditions beyond the Company's control.

  THE COMPANY IS REGULARLY INVOLVED IN LITIGATION, WHICH MAY EXPOSE THE COMPANY
  TO SIGNIFICANT LIABILITIES.

     The Company is involved in litigation arising in the ordinary course of its
business, which may expose it to loss contingencies. These matters include, but
are not limited to, claims brought by former customers with respect to the
operation of the Company's business. The Company has also received written
demands from customers and former customers that have not yet resulted in legal
action.

     The Company may not be able to successfully resolve such legal matters, or
other legal matters that may arise in the future. In the event of an adverse
outcome with respect to such legal matters or other legal matters in which the
Company may become involved, the Company's insurance coverage may not fully
cover any damages assessed against the Company. Although the Company maintains
all insurance coverage in amounts that it believes is sufficient for its
business, such coverage may prove to be inadequate or may become unavailable on
acceptable terms, if at all. A successful claim brought against the Company,
which is uninsured or under-insured, could materially harm the Company's
business, results of operations or financial condition.

                                        19

  THE PHYSICIAN MANAGEMENT OUTSOURCING BUSINESS IS HIGHLY COMPETITIVE AND THE
  COMPANY'S INABILITY TO SUCCESSFULLY COMPETE FOR BUSINESS COULD ADVERSELY
  AFFECT THE COMPANY.

     The physician business management outsourcing business, especially for
revenue cycle management, is highly competitive. The Company competes with
regional and local physician reimbursement organizations as well as physician
groups that provide their own business management services in house. Successful
competition within this industry is dependent on numerous industry and market
conditions. Potential industry and market changes that could adversely affect
the Company's ability to compete for business management outsourcing services
include an increase in the number of local, regional or national competitors
providing comparable services and new alliances between healthcare providers and
third-party payers in which healthcare providers are employed by such
third-party payers.

  THE BUSINESS OF PROVIDING SERVICES AND SOLUTIONS TO HOSPITALS FOR BOTH REVENUE
  CYCLE AND RESOURCE MANAGEMENT IS ALSO HIGHLY COMPETITIVE AND THE COMPANY'S
  INABILITY TO SUCCESSFULLY COMPETE FOR BUSINESS COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE
  COMPANY.

     The business of providing services and solutions to hospitals for both
revenue cycle and resource management is also highly competitive. The Company
competes with traditional electronic data interface companies, outsourcing
companies and specialized software vendors with national, regional and local
bases. Some competitors have longer operating histories and greater financial,
technical and marketing resources than the Company. The Company's successful
competition within this industry is dependent on numerous industry and market
conditions.

  THE MARKETS FOR THE COMPANY'S SERVICES AND SOLUTIONS ARE CHARACTERIZED BY
  RAPIDLY CHANGING TECHNOLOGY, EVOLVING INDUSTRY STANDARDS AND FREQUENT NEW
  PRODUCT INTRODUCTIONS AND THE COMPANY'S INABILITY TO KEEP PACE COULD ADVERSELY
  AFFECT THE COMPANY.

     The markets for the Company's services and solutions are characterized by
rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards and frequent new
product introductions. The Company's ability to keep pace with changes in the
healthcare industry may be dependent on a variety of factors, including the
Company's ability to enhance existing products and services; introduce new
products and services quickly and cost effectively; achieve market acceptance
for new products and services; and respond to emerging industry standards and
other technological changes.

     Competitors may develop competitive products that could adversely affect
the Company's operating results. It is possible that the Company will be
unsuccessful in refining, enhancing and developing the Company's technology
going forward. The costs associated with refining, enhancing and developing
these systems may increase significantly in the future. Existing software and
technology may become obsolete as a result of ongoing technological developments
in the marketplace.

  THE HEALTHCARE MARKETPLACE IS CHARACTERIZED BY CONSOLIDATION, WHICH MAY RESULT
  IN FEWER POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS FOR THE COMPANY'S SERVICES.

     In general, consolidation initiatives in the healthcare marketplace may
result in fewer potential customers for the Company's services. Some of these
types of initiatives include employer initiatives such as creating purchasing
cooperatives (GPOs); provider initiatives, such as risk-sharing among healthcare
providers and managed care companies through capitated contracts; and
integration among hospitals and physicians into comprehensive delivery systems.
Consolidation of management and billing services through integrated delivery
systems may result in a decrease in demand for the Company's business management
outsourcing services for particular physician practices.

  THE HEALTHCARE INDUSTRY IS HIGHLY REGULATED, WHICH MAY INCREASE THE COMPANY'S
  COSTS OF OPERATION.

     The healthcare industry is highly regulated and is subject to changing
political, economic and regulatory influences. Federal and state legislatures
have periodically considered programs to reform or amend the U.S. healthcare
system at both the federal and state level and to change healthcare financing
and reimbursement
                                        20
<PAGE>

systems, such as the Balanced Budget Act of 1997 and the Medicare Modernization
Act of 2003. These programs may contain proposals to increase governmental
involvement in healthcare, lower reimbursement rates or otherwise change the
environment in which healthcare industry participants operate. Current or future
government regulations or healthcare reform measures may affect the Company's
business. Healthcare industry participants may respond by reducing their
investments or postponing investment decisions, including investments in the
Company's products and services.

     Medical billing and collection activities are governed by numerous federal
and state civil and criminal laws. Federal and state regulators use these laws
to investigate healthcare providers and companies that provide billing and
collection services. In connection with these laws, the Company may be subjected
to federal or state government investigations and possible penalties may be
imposed upon the Company, false claims actions may have to be defended, private
payers may file claims against the Company, and the Company may be excluded from
Medicare, Medicaid or other government-funded healthcare programs.

     In the past, the Company has been the subject of federal investigations,
and the Company may become the subject of false claims litigation or additional
investigations relating to its billing and collection activities. Any such
proceeding or investigation could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business.

     Under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996
("HIPAA"), final rules have been published regarding standards for electronic
transactions as well as standards for privacy and security of individually
identifiable health information. The HIPAA rules set new or higher standards for
the healthcare industry in handling healthcare transactions and information,
with penalties for noncompliance. The Company has incurred and will continue to
incur costs to comply with these rules. Although management believes that future
compliance costs will not have a material impact on the Company's results of
operations, compliance with these rules may prove to be more costly than
anticipated. Failure to comply with such rules may have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business and may subject the Company to civil and
criminal penalties as well as loss of customers.

     The Company relies upon third parties to provide data elements to process
electronic medical claims in a HIPAA-compliant format. While the Company
believes it will be fully and properly prepared to process electronic medical
claims in a HIPAA-compliant format, there can be no assurance that third
parties, including healthcare providers and payers, will likewise be prepared to
supply all the data elements required to process electronic medical claims and
make electronic remittance under HIPAA's standards. If payers reject electronic
medical claims and such claims are processed manually rather than
electronically, there could be a material adverse affect on the Company's
business. The Company has made and expects to continue to make investments in
product enhancements to support customer operations that are regulated by HIPAA.
Responding to HIPAA's impact may require the Company to make investments in new
products or charge higher prices.

     Numerous federal and state civil and criminal laws govern the collection,
use, storage and disclosure of health information for the purpose of
safeguarding the privacy and security of such information. Federal or state
governments may impose penalties for noncompliance, both criminal and civil.
Persons who believe their health information has been misused or disclosed
improperly may bring claims and payers who believe instances of noncompliance
with privacy and security standards have occurred may bring administrative
sanctions or remedial actions against offending parties.

     Passage of HIPAA is part of a wider healthcare reform initiative. The
Company expects that the debate on healthcare reform will continue. The Company
also expects that the federal government as well as state governments will pass
laws and issue regulations addressing healthcare issues and reimbursement of
healthcare providers. The Company cannot predict whether the government will
enact new legislation and regulations, and, if enacted, whether such new
developments will affect the Company's business.

  THE TRADING PRICE OF THE COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK MAY BE VOLATILE AND NEGATIVELY
  AFFECT YOUR INVESTMENT.

     The trading price of the Company's Common Stock may be volatile. The market
for the Company's Common Stock may experience significant price and volume
fluctuations in response to a number of factors including actual or anticipated
quarterly variations in operating results, changes in expectations of future
financial

                                        21
<PAGE>

performance or changes in estimates of securities analysts, government
regulatory action, healthcare reform measures, client relationship developments
and other factors, many of which are beyond the Company's control. Furthermore,
the stock market in general and the market for software, healthcare business
services and high technology companies in particular, has experienced volatility
that often has been unrelated to the operating performance of particular
companies. These broad market and industry fluctuations may adversely affect the
trading price of the Company's Common Stock, regardless of actual operating
performance.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

  INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY

     The Company invests excess cash in commercial paper, money market funds and
other highly liquid short-term investments. Due to the limited amounts of these
investments and their short-term nature, any fluctuation in the prevailing
interest rates is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's
financial statements.

     The Company has the option of entering into loans based on LIBOR or base
rates under the Revolving Credit Facility. As such, if the Company were to
borrow amounts under the Revolving Credit Facility, the Company could experience
fluctuations in interest rates under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Company
has not incurred any borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility since
inception.

     The Company has a process in place to monitor fluctuations in interest
rates and could hedge against significant forecast changes in interest rates, if
necessary.

  EXCHANGE RATE SENSITIVITY

     The majority of the Company's revenue and expenses are denominated in U.S.
dollars. As a result, the Company has not experienced any significant foreign
exchange gains or losses to date. The Company conducts only limited business
denominated in foreign currencies and does not expect material foreign exchange
gains or losses in the future. The Company does not engage in any foreign
exchange hedging activities.

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

     The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have
evaluated the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2005,
and have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were
effective as of March 31, 2005, to provide reasonable assurance that information
the Company is required to disclose in reports that the Company files or submits
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported accurately. It should be noted, however, that a control system, no
matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not
absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because
of the limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide
absolute assurance that all control issues within the Company have been
detected. Furthermore, the design of any control system is based in part upon
certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no
assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all
potential future conditions, regardless of how unlikely. Because of these
inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements or
omissions due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

     The Company has implemented additional controls, policies and procedures
during the quarter ended March 31, 2005 to enhance its internal control
structure and to maintain its compliance with Section 404(a) of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. None of the additional controls, policies and
procedures implemented during the quarter ended March 31, 2005, constitute
changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the
Company's internal control over financial reporting.
