in accordance with Exhibit A attached hereto.

     (c) Benefits.  The Company shall grant Employee an option to purchase
95,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock, with the per share exercise price
being the closing sale price for the Company's Common Stock on the New York
Stock Exchange on the Commencement Date and on other terms that are consistent
with the terms of the stock option plans adopted by the Company pursuant to
which the options are granted and the provisions of Section 7 hereof.  Such

to programs calling for such approvals or grants.

     Section 5.  EXPENSES.  It is acknowledged by the parties that Employee, in
connection with the services to be performed by him pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement, will be required to make payments for travel, entertainment of
business associates and similar expenses.  The Company will reimburse Employee
for all reasonable expenses of types authorized by the Company and incurred by
Employee in the performance of his duties hereunder.  Employee will comply with
such budget limitations and approval and reporting requirements with respect to
expenses as the Company may establish from time to time.

     Section 6.  TERMINATION.  Employee's employment hereunder will commence on
the Commencement Date and continue until the end of the term specified in
Section 3 hereof and any renewals of such term, except that the employment of
Employee hereunder will terminate earlier in the following manner:

     (a) Death or Disability.  Immediately upon the death of Employee during the
term of his employment hereunder or, at the option of the Company, in the event
of

                                       2
<PAGE>

Employee's disability, upon 30 days notice to Employee.  Employee will be deemed
disabled if, as a result of Employee's incapacity due to physical or mental
illness, Employee shall have been absent from his duties with the Company on a
full-time basis for 120 consecutive business days;

     (b) For Cause.  For "Cause" immediately upon written notice by the Company
to Employee.  For purposes of this Agreement, a termination will be for Cause
if: (i) Employee willfully and continuously fails to perform his duties with the
Company (other than any such failure resulting from incapacity due to physical
or mental illness), (ii) Employee willfully engages in gross misconduct
materially and demonstrably injurious to the Company or (iii) Employee has been
convicted of a felony;

     (c) Termination Upon Anniversary.  Upon the occurrence of any annual

to the other 60 days prior written notice of its election to terminate this
Agreement.

     Employee will not be entitled to any severance pay or other compensation
upon termination of his employment pursuant to Subsections (a) or (b) or Section
3 or in the event that Employee voluntarily leaves the employment of the Company
except for any portion of his base salary accrued but unpaid from the last
monthly payment date to the date of termination and expense reimbursements under
Section 5 hereof for expenses incurred in the performance of his duties
hereunder prior to termination.  In the event Employee's employment with the
Company is terminated by the Company for reasons other than any of the reasons
enumerated in Subsections 6(a) or (b) above, the Company will pay Employee, as
Employee's sole remedy in connection with such termination, severance pay in the
amount of Employee's monthly base salary at the rate in effect immediately
preceding the termination of Employee's employment for 12 months after the
termination of Employee's employment (the "Separation Payment Period"), which
severance pay will be paid by the Company in equal monthly payments in arrears.
The Company will also pay Employee the portion of his base salary accrued but
unpaid from the last monthly payment date to the date of termination and expense
reimbursements under Section 5 hereof for expenses incurred in the performance
of his duties hereunder prior to termination.

     Section 7.  Effect of Termination on Options.  Options held by the Employee
will automatically expire if the Employee's employment with the Company is
terminated for Cause as defined in Section 6(b) or if the Employee voluntarily
leaves the employment of the Company in breach of this Agreement.  If Employee's
employment with the Company ends for any other reason than termination for
Cause, voluntary departure in breach of this Agreement, due to death or pursuant
to Section 6(c) above, such Employee's options will remain exercisable and will
vest and expire in accordance with the terms of the applicable option
agreements. If the Employee dies while employed by the Company his options shall
become fully exercisable on the date of his death and shall expire twelve months
thereafter.  If this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section
6(c) above, (i) the options that are vested as of the date of termination shall
remain exercisable for a period of twelve months after the date of termination
and shall expire at the end of

                                       3
<PAGE>

such twelve month period and (ii) the options that would have vested during the
twelve months following termination shall vest upon termination, remain
exercisable for a period of twelve months after the date of termination and
expire at the end of such twelve month period.  If this Agreement is terminated
by the Employee pursuant to Section 6(c) above, the options that are vested as
of the date of termination shall remain exercisable for a period of twelve
months after the date of termination and shall expire at the end of such twelve
month period.

     Section 8.  CHANGE IN CONTROL TERMINATION PAYMENT.

     (a)  Termination Payment.

          (i) Amount. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
     Section 7 hereof, in the event Employee's employment with the Company
     terminates for any reason (other than death) within the twelve month period
     following a Change In Control (as defined in subsection 8(b) hereof)
     occurring after the Commencement Date, the Company will pay Employee a lump
     sum payment (the "Termination Payment") in cash equal to 2.99 times the sum
     of the items in the following subsections (I) through (VI):


(I)  Employee's annual base compensation determined by reference to his base
salary in effect immediately prior to the Change In Control;

              (II) the maximum bonus that Employee could receive under any
          management incentive bonus plan of the Company for the year in which
          the Change In Control occurs, assuming all incentives and financial
          targets were achieved that are necessary to require payment of the
          largest bonus amount by the Company to Employee; provided that the
          maximum bonus under this subsection 8(a)(i)(II) will not be less than
          60% of the amount specified under subsection 8(a)(i)(I) hereof;

             (III) the amount of Employee's base salary accrued but unpaid from
          the last monthly payment date to the date of termination;

              (IV) expense reimbursement under Section 5 hereof for expenses
          incurred in the performance of his duties hereunder prior to the
          termination of his employment with the Company;

               (V) any other benefit accrued but unpaid as of the date of such
          termination; and

              (VI) the estimated cost to Employee of obtaining medical, dental,
          life and disability insurance coverage for a period of eighteen months
          after

                                       4
<PAGE>

          the expiration of his continuation (COBRA) rights; provided that such
          coverage will be substantially similar to the coverage provided to
          Employee by the Company immediately prior to the Change In Control;
          and provided further that this subsection 8(a)(i)(VI) will be applied
          without regard to, and the amount payable under this subsection
          8(a)(i)(VI) is in addition to, any continuation (COBRA) rights or
          conversion rights under any plan provided by the Company, which rights
          are not affected by any provision hereof.

          (ii) Time for Payment; Interest. The Company will pay the Termination
     Payment to Employee concurrent with Employee's termination of employment.
     The Company's obligation to pay to Employee any amounts under this Section
     8, including without limitation the Termination Payment and any Gross Up
     Payment due under subsection (c), will bear interest at the maximum rate
     allowed by law until paid by the Company, and all accrued and unpaid
     interest will bear interest at the same rate, all of which interest will be
     compounded daily.

         (iii) Payment Authority. Any officer of the Company (other than
     Employee) is authorized to issue and execute a check, initiate a wire
     transfer or otherwise effect payment on behalf of the Company to satisfy
     the Company's obligations to pay all amounts due to Employee under this
     Section 8.

          (iv) Termination. The Company's obligation to pay the Termination
     Payment will not be affected by the manner in which Employee's employment
     with the Company is terminated. Without limiting the generality of the
     foregoing, the Company will be obligated to pay the Termination Payment and
     any Gross Up Payment regardless of whether Employee's termination of
     employment is voluntary, involuntary, for cause, without cause, in
     violation of any employment agreement or other agreement in effect at the
     time of the Change In Control, or due to Employee's retirement or
     disability. Employee's notice of his termination of employment in
     connection with a Change In Control may be made by any means.

     (b) Change In Control.  A Change In Control will be deemed to have occurred
for purposes hereof (i) when a change of stock ownership of the Company of a
nature that would be required to be reported in response to Item 6(e) of
Schedule 14A promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the "Exchange Act"), and any successor Item of a similar nature has occurred;
or (ii) upon the acquisition of beneficial ownership, directly or indirectly, by
any person (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d)(2) of the Exchange
Act) of securities of the Company representing 33% or more of the combined
voting power of the Company's then outstanding securities; or (iii) a change
during any period of two consecutive years of a majority of the members of the
Board of Directors of the Company for any reason, unless the election, or the
nomination for election by the Company's shareholders, of each director was
approved by a vote of a majority of the directors then still in office who were
directors at the beginning of the period; provided that

                                       5
<PAGE>

a Change In Control will not be deemed to have occurred for purposes hereof with
respect to any person meeting the requirements of clauses (i) and (ii) of Rule
13d-1(b)(1) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

     (c)  Gross Up Payment.

          (i) Excess Parachute Payment. If Employee incurs the tax (the "Excise
     Tax") imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the
     "Code") on "excess parachute payments" within the meaning of Section
     280G(b)(1) of the Code, the Company will pay to Employee an amount (the
     "Gross Up Payment") such that the net amount retained by Employee, after
     deduction of any Excise Tax on the excess parachute payment and any
     federal, state and local income tax (together with penalties and interest)
     and Excise Tax upon the payment provided for by this subsection (c)(i),
     will be equal to the amount of the excess parachute payment.

         (ii) Applicable Rates. For purposes of determining the amount of the
     Gross Up Payment, Employee will be deemed to pay federal income taxes at
     the highest marginal rate of federal income taxation in the calendar year
     in which the Gross Up Payment is to be made and state and local income
     taxes at the highest marginal rates of taxation in the state and locality
     of Employee's residence on the date of his termination of employment, net
     of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes that could be obtained
     from deduction of such state and local taxes.

         (iii) Determination of Gross Up Payment Amount. The determination of
     whether the Excise Tax is payable and the amount thereof will be based upon
     the opinion of tax counsel selected by Employee. If such opinion is not
     finally accepted by the Internal Revenue Service (or state and local taxing
     authorities), then appropriate adjustments to the Excise Tax will be
     computed and additional Gross Up Payments will be made in the manner
     provided by this subsection (c).

          (iv) Time For Payment. The Company will pay the estimated amount of
     the Gross Up Payment in cash to Employee concurrent with Employee's
     termination of employment. Employee and the Company agree to reasonably
     cooperate in the determination of the actual amount of the Gross Up
     Payment. Further, Employee and the Company agree to make such adjustments
     to the estimated amount of the Gross Up Payment as may be necessary to
     equal the actual amount of the Gross Up Payment, which in the case of
     Employee will refer to refunds of prior overpayments and in the case of the
     Company will refer to makeup of prior underpayments.

     (d) Arbitration. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating
to this Section 8, or the breach thereof, will be settled exclusively by
arbitration in Dallas, Texas, in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration
Rules of the American Arbitration

                                       6
<PAGE>

Association then in effect. Judgment upon the award rendered by the
arbitrator(s) may be entered in, and enforced by, any court having jurisdiction
thereof.

     (e) No Right To Continued Employment.  This Section 8 will not give
Employee any right of continued employment or any right to compensation or
benefits from the Company except the rights specifically stated herein.

     (f) Exercise of Stock Options.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, all of Employee's options to purchase the Company's Common
Stock will become immediately exercisable upon a Change In Control.

     Section 9.  CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.  Employee recognizes and acknowledges
that certain assets of the Company and its affiliates, including without
limitation information regarding customers, pricing policies, methods of
operation, proprietary computer programs, sales, products, profits, costs,
markets, key personnel, formulae, product applications, technical processes, and
trade secrets (hereinafter called "Confidential Information") are valuable,
special and unique assets of the Company and its affiliates.  Employee will not,
during or after his term of employment, disclose any of the Confidential
Information to any person, firm, corporation, association, or any other entity
for any reason or purpose whatsoever, directly or indirectly, except as may be
required pursuant to his employment hereunder, unless and until such
Confidential Information becomes publicly available other than as a consequence
of the breach by Employee of his confidentiality obligations hereunder. In the
event of the termination of his employment, whether voluntary or involuntary and
whether by the Company or Employee, Employee will deliver to the Company all
documents and data pertaining to the Confidential Information and will not take
with him any documents or data of any kind or any reproductions (in whole or in
part) of any items relating to the Confidential Information.

     Section 10.  NONCOMPETITION.  Until two years after termination of
Employee's employment hereunder, Employee will not (i) engage directly or
indirectly, alone or as a shareholder, partner, officer, director, employee or
consultant of any other business organization, in any business activities which
(A) relate to the acquisition and consolidation of medical practices (the
"Designated Industry") and (B) were either conducted by the Company prior to
Employee's termination or proposed to be conducted by the Company at the time of
such termination, (ii) divert to any competitor of the Company in the Designated
Industry any customer of Employee, or (iii) solicit or encourage any officer,
employee, or consultant of the Company to leave its employ for employment by or
with any competitor of the Company in the Designated Industry.  The parties
hereto acknowledge that Employee's noncompetition obligations hereunder will not
preclude Employee from (i) owning less than 5% of the common stock of any
publicly traded corporation conducting business activities in the Designated
Industry or (ii) serving as an officer or employee of an entity engaged in the
healthcare industry whose business operations are not competitive with those of
the Company.  Employee will continue to be bound by the provisions of this
Section 10 until their expiration and will not be entitled to any compensation
from the Company with respect thereto.  If at any time the provisions of this
Section 10 are determined to be invalid or unenforceable, by reason of being
vague or unreasonable as to area, duration or scope of activity, this Section 10
will be

                                       7
<PAGE>

considered divisible and will become and be immediately amended to only such
area, duration and scope of activity as will be determined to be reasonable and
enforceable by the court or other body having jurisdiction over the matter; and
Employee agrees that this Section 10 as so amended will be valid and binding as
though any invalid or unenforceable provision had not been included herein.

     Section 11.  CONSULTING.  During the term of this Agreement, Employee may
devote up to 10% of his professional time or two (2) days per month to a
consulting business independent from the Company.

     Section 12.  GENERAL.

          withholding of such amounts, if any, relating to federal, state and

          and effect and will not be affected by the illegal, invalid or
          unenforceable provision or by its severance herefrom. Furthermore, in
          lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision, there will
          be added automatically as part of this Agreement a provision as

          provision as may be possible and be legal, valid and enforceable.

              (f) Waivers. No delay or omission by either party hereto in
          exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder will impair such
          right, power or privilege, nor will any single or partial exercise of
          any such right, power or privilege preclude any further exercise
          thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

              (g) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple
          counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, and all of
          which together will constitute one and the same instrument.

          inure to the benefit of the parties and will be enforceable by the
          personal representatives and heirs of Employee and the successors of
