The Board currently has three committees: the Audit Committee, the Compensation
Committee, and the Executive Committee.

         The Audit Committee currently consists of two non-employee directors,
Mr. Hartley and Dr. Richey. The Audit Committee is authorized by the Board of
Directors to review with the Company's independent accountants the annual
financial statements of the Company; to review the work of, and approve
non-audit services performed by, such independent accountants; and to make
annual recommendations to the Board for the appointment of independent public
accountants for the ensuing year. The Audit Committee also reviews the
effectiveness of the financial and accounting functions, organization,
operations and management of the Company. The Audit Committee met twice in 1997.

         The Compensation Committee currently consists of two non-employee
directors, Mr. Hartley and Dr. Richey. The Compensation Committee reviews and
recommends to the Board of Directors the compensation and benefits of all
officers of the Company, reviews general policy matters relating to compensation
and benefits of employees of the Company, administers the Company's 1995
Long-Term Incentive Plan and the issuance of stock options to the Company's
officers, employees and consultants and also has authority to grant options to
directors who are not employees of the Company. The Compensation Committee held
three meetings in 1997.

         The Executive Committee of the Board of Directors currently consists of
Messrs. Hartley, Paul, Dr. Richey and Dr. Rausser. The Executive Committee
exercises the powers and authority of the Board of Directors in the management
and affairs of the Company between meetings of the Board of Directors, to the
extent permitted by law. During 1997, the Executive Committee met four times.

         In January 1997, the Board appointed a special advisory committee (the
"Special Advisory Committee"), consisting of non-employee directors Mendelson
(now a former director), Hartley and Rausser, to review the Company's former
relationship with Coyote Consulting and Financial Services, LLC and Keith
Greenberg, a former independent consultant of the Company, and the Company's
prior public disclosure regarding that relationship. In addition, in March 1997,
the Special Advisory Committee recommended, and the Board adopted, certain
procedures regarding the management of the Company, including background
investigations of management and consulting candidates, strengthening disclosure
review, and the election of additional outside directors to the Board. The
Special Advisory Committee was disbanded in September 1997 after having
completed its function.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

         Directors who are not officers or employees of the Company receive a
payment of $1,000 for each meeting of the Board that they attend and receive
$500 for each committee meeting they attend. Board members are also reimbursed
for their reasonable expenses incurred in serving as a director of the Company.

         In November 1997, the Board of Directors adopted a policy of granting
options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock, par value $.01 per
share (the "Common Stock") to directors who are not employees or principal
stockholders of, or referring physicians to, the Company ("Director Options"),
on the following terms: options to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock are
granted to each such director (i) on the date such director is first elected or
appointed to the Board of Directors, and (ii) each year thereafter on the day of
the first meeting of the Board of Directors immediately following any annual
meeting of stockholders (so long as the director's term as a director continues
after such annual meeting). Director Options have a term


                                       6
<PAGE>

of five years, vest as determined by the Board of Directors and have an exercise
price equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date immediately
preceding the date of the option grant. On June 3, 1997, director L. E. Richey
was granted options to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise
price of $7.50 per share under the Company's 1995 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the
"1995 Plan"). On November 6, 1997, directors C. Keith Hartley, Gordon Rausser
and L. E. Richey, and former director Laurans A. Mendelson, were each granted
options to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $6.50
per share under the 1995 Plan.

         In March 1997, in consideration for their services on the Special
Advisory Committee, Mr. Mendelson, a former director of the Company, and Mr.
Hartley and Dr. Rausser, current directors of the Company, received options to
purchase 100,000, 35,000 and 35,000 shares of Common Stock, respectively, at an
exercise price of $8.625 per share under the 1995 Plan. These options are
immediately exercisable and have a term of 10 years from the date of grant.

         Gordon Rausser is paid $25,000 each fiscal quarter pursuant to the
terms of a Consulting Agreement between the Company and Dr. Rausser dated
January 1, 1995, and amended effective September 1995 and September 1996. See
"Certain Relationships and Related Transactions."

         Charles Jacobson, a former director of the Company, and an entity in
which he owns an equity interest, have management consulting arrangements with
the Company lasting through the year 2000, pursuant to which the Company paid an
aggregate of $104,312 to Mr. Jacobson and such entity in 1997 for management
consulting services. These arrangements were amended in 1997 to provide that the
Company will pay $100,000 for such services per year until the termination of
the arrangements.

         David Cohen and the Company entered into a four-year employment

and authority are materially diminished or the Company materially breaches the
agreement, Mr. Cohen is entitled to deem his employment terminated without cause
and receive all compensation which would have accrued to him under the agreement
for the longer of the remainder of the term or for a period of one year. Mr.
Cohen is entitled to (i) participation in all other benefit plans provided by
the Company to its executives, (ii) four weeks paid vacation per year and (iii)
a $1,000 per month non-accountable car allowance. The agreement also restricts

information with respect to the Company, although if Mr. Cohen so deems his
employment terminated without cause, he may, under certain circumstances, waive
certain payments from the Company and be relieved from the non-competition
restrictions.

would be entitled to receive lump sum compensation, bonus and certain
reimbursements and benefits equal to two years' annualized compensation (unless

Smith is entitled to one year's annualized compensation, bonus and certain
reimbursements and benefits). If Mr. Smith releases the Company from its
obligation to pay such lump sum compensation, the Company will release him from
the post-termination non-compete and non-solicitation restrictions of the
agreement. The employment agreement restricts Mr. Smith from competing with the
Company and soliciting Customers (defined in the agreement) during a 12 month

his employment, Mr. Platt is entitled to (i) health insurance in accordance with
the Company's existing benefit package for senior management, (ii) three weeks

agreement. The employment agreement restricts Mr. Platt from competing with the
Company and soliciting Customers (defined in the agreement) during a 12 month
period after the date of termination and from disclosing certain confidential
information with respect to the Company. Such restrictions will not apply if the
agreement is terminated by the Company without cause or by Mr. Platt upon a
material breach by the Company.

             SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

         Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company's directors,
executive officers and persons who own more than 10% of the Company's Common
Stock (collectively, "Reporting Persons") to file reports of ownership and
changes in ownership of the Company's Common Stock to the Securities and
Exchange Commission and The Nasdaq Stock Market. Copies of these reports are
also required to be delivered to the Company.

         Except as set forth below, the Company believes, based solely on its
review of the copies of such reports received and written representations that
no other reports were required, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997,
all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors, and
greater than ten percent beneficial owners were complied with, except that Wayne
Moor inadvertently filed a Form 3 late; Leon Maraist inadvertently filed one
Form 4 late for two transactions; Len Platt inadvertently filed a Form 3 late
and a Form 4 for one transaction late; David Cohen filed a timely Form 5 in
February 1998 reporting one transaction for which he inadvertently failed to
file a Form 4; and L. E. Richey inadvertently filed a Form 3 late and a late
Form 5 reporting a grant of options; and Arthur Quillo inadvertently failed to
file a Form 3.

ITEM 13.  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

         In July 1996, in an arm's length transaction and prior to the time that
Mr. Mendelson became a director of the Company, the Company acquired all of the
outstanding capital stock of MediTek Health Corporation from HEICO. Laurans A.
Mendelson, a former director of the Company, is also the Chief Executive
Officer, President and Chairman of the Board of HEICO. The consideration paid by
the Company to HEICO was approximately $13 million in cash plus a five-year, $10
million convertible note bearing interest at a rate of 6% per annum. The Note
was originally convertible into the Company's Common Stock at $9.25 per share,
or an aggregate of 1,081,081 shares. The Company granted HEICO certain
registration rights with respect to these shares of Common Stock. The Note was
redeemable at any time prior to the registration under the Securities Act of
1933 of the shares into which the Note is convertible. In September 1997, the
Note was amended such that (i) the Note is convertible into shares of the
Company's Common Stock at $8.50 per share, or an aggregate of 1,176,471 shares,
and (ii) the Note is due and payable in full on June 30, 2001, subject to
earlier redemption at the option of the Noteholders commencing on January 1,
1999 if the shares into which the Note is convertible have not at that time been
registered under the Securities Act. In September 1997, subsequent to the
amendment of the Note, HEICO sold the Note to Forum Capital Markets L.P.
("Forum"), of which C. Keith Hartley, a director and co-chairman of the Board of
the Company, is a Managing Partner (see discussion below re: Hartley). In
September 1997, Forum resold the Note to purchasers who are unaffiliated with
the Company, Forum, HEICO, or Mr. Mendelson. In accordance with the MediTek
acquisition agreements , Mr. Mendelson, as designee of HEICO, was elected by the
shareholders to the Company's Board of Directors on September 19, 1996. Mr.
Mendelson became Chairman of the Board of the Company on February 2, 1997. On
December 1, 1997, Mr. Mendelson resigned from the Board of Directors.


                                       17
<PAGE>


         In 1997, the Company paid to HEICO, as reimbursement for time Mr.
Mendelson spent on the Company's business, an amount equal to $225 per hour that
Mr. Mendelson worked for the Company. The total amount paid to HEICO under this
arrangement was $100,350. In September 1997, the reimbursement arrangement was
terminated, and no further payments will be made to HEICO under the arrangement.

         The Company is a party to a Consulting Agreement effective as of
January 1, 1995, with Gordon C. Rausser, as amended, pursuant to which Dr.
Rausser, a director of the Company, acts as a consultant to the Company on
economic, financial and strategic matters. Under the agreement, as amended, Dr.
Rausser is entitled to a consulting fee of $25,000 per quarter until December
31, 1999, provided that he offers or agrees to serve as a director of the
Company and offers or agrees to serve as a consultant under the agreement. In
connection with entering into the agreement, as amended, Dr. Rausser received a
warrant to purchase 400,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company exercisable at
$5.00 per share at any time through December 31, 1999. In addition, in October
1996, the Company issued 24,000 restricted shares of Common Stock with a fair
market value of $12.625 per share to Dr. Rausser under the 1995 Plan, and in
January 1997, the Company issued an additional 51,000 restricted shares of
Common Stock with a fair market value of $8.625 per share to Dr. Rausser under
the 1995 Plan, in connection with the Consulting Agreement.

         See Note 10 ("Capital Transactions") of the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements for disclosure regarding a related party transaction
involving a settlement agreement among the Company, Jeffrey Goffman and
Consolidated General Ltd., U.K. Errington Ltd., and certain other persons.

         See Note 19 ("Termination of Employment and Consulting Agreements") of
the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for disclosure regarding (i) a
settlement of employment and other issues between the Company and Jeffrey
Goffman; and (ii) issues relating to the termination of employment by the
Company of Michael D. Karsch.

         See Note 21 ( "Related Party Transactions") of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements for disclosure regarding a related party
transaction involving (i) C. Keith Hartley and Forum Capital Markets L.P. in
connection with the $57,500,000 Subordinated Convertible Debenture offering by
the Company in March 1996; and (ii) Todd Smith and the Company's Installation
Agreement with CIERRA Solutions, Inc.

         In June 1996, the Company acquired U.S. Imaging, Inc. ("U.S. Imaging")
in a merger transaction pursuant to which U.S. Imaging merged into a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The merger consideration paid to the
former sole stockholder of U.S. Imaging, the Reese General Trust (the "Reese
Trust"), was $7,000,000 in cash and 1,671,000 shares of the Company's Common
Stock, of which 671,000 shares were placed in escrow. The Reese Trust
transferred the shares to Lighthouse Capital Insurance Company. The shares held
in escrow will be released to Lighthouse if certain financial results are
achieved by U.S. Imaging in 1997 and 1998. Of the shares held in escrow, 400,000
shares have been released in 1997. L. E. Richey, a director and Co-Chairman of
the Board of the Company, was the President of U.S. Imaging at the time of the
merger. In addition, Dr. Richey's children are the beneficial owners of the
shares held by Lighthouse. Dr. Richey became a director of the Company in June
1997 and was not a director or an employee of the Company at the time that the
Company acquired U.S. Imaging. See Item 12, "Security Ownership of Certain
Beneficial Owners and Management," footnotes 3 and 4.

         In October 1996, the Company purchased 100% of the capital stock of
Medical Marketing Development ("MMD") from Alan Winakor, a Senior Vice President
of the Company. Mr. Winakor was not an employee of the Company on the date that
the Company acquired MMD. In 1996, the Company also 


                                       18
<PAGE>

acquired four other partnerships of which Mr. Winakor was the President and
general partner. Pursuant to the purchase agreements, the payment of a portion
of the consideration for the purchases of MMD and the other acquired entities
was contingent upon the achievement of certain financial results by the acquired
entities, and an aggregate of 88,679 shares of the Company's Common Stock were
held in escrow pending release to Mr. Winakor upon the achievement of such
results. In 1997, the requisite milestones were reached, and (i) the 88,679
shares of the Company's Common Stock were released from escrow to Mr. Winakor,
and (ii) the Company paid $732,000 to Mr. Winakor and issued 79,135 shares of
Common Stock to Mr. Winakor.

         Pursuant to the terms of a Subscription Agreement dated December 1,
1996, the Company purchased approximately five million shares of common stock of
Diversified Therapy Corp. ( DTC ) for $3.5 million, representing approximately
25% of all of the outstanding common stock of DTC at December 31, 1996. DTC
commenced operations in 1996 to develop a leadership position in the ownership
and operations of U.S. wound care treatment facilities utilizing hyperbaric
chambers. On the date of the Subscription Agreement and on December 31, 1996,
the President of DTC was Keith Greenberg. Mr. Greenberg, on behalf of Coyote
Consulting previously had provided consulting services to the Company. In
January 1997, Mr. Greenberg resigned as President of DTC. Mr. Almand, an
executive officer and former director of the Company, is the Chairman of the
Board and a more than 5% beneficial owner of DTC. Mr. Rausser, a director of the
Company, and Mr. Jacobson, a former director of the Company, are also directors
of DTC. As a result of losses incurred by DTC, the Company recorded a loss of
$3,537,184 as of June 30, 1997, representing the Company's entire recorded
investment in DTC.

         In December 1994, the Company entered into a five-year consulting
agreement with Coyote Consulting, which was amended in October 1995 and amended
and restated on June 1, 1996, effective January 1, 1996, pursuant to which the
Company paid Coyote Consulting an annual draw of $185,000. Coyote Consulting was
also entitled to a finder's fee of 2% of the aggregate purchase price of any
entity acquired by the Company as a result of an introduction by Coyote
Consulting. It is believed that Coyote Consulting is owned by Keith Greenberg's
wife, Elise Nulman Greenberg, and a family trust. Mrs. Greenberg is a former
employee of the Company. Cash compensation paid to, and the value of restricted
stock granted and compensatory stock options issued to Coyote Consulting for the
years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, totaled $5,596,750 and $138,126,
respectively.

         In December 1996, the Company negotiated a Termination Agreement with
Coyote Consulting (the "Termination Agreement"), which terminated the existing
consulting agreement, subject to ratification by the Company's Board. As of this
date, the Company's Board has deferred the issue of ratification pending further
study. In connection with the terms of the unratified Termination Agreement, the
Company paid to Coyote Consulting the sum of $620,000 representing one-half of
the finder's fees due Coyote Consulting upon closing of the then-pending
acquisition of Medical Diagnostics, Inc., which was closed in February 1997, and
the then-pending acquisition of American Shared Hospital Services. Under the
terms of the unratified Termination Agreement, the remaining portion of the
finder's fees on such acquisitions would be payable at closing of the
acquisitions. In the event that the Company's acquisition of American Shared
Hospital Services did not close, the payment on account of the finder's fee was
to be credited toward finder's fees on future acquisitions as discussed below.
On April 28, 1997, the Company announced it had terminated further negotiations
to acquire American Shared Hospital Services.


                                       19
<PAGE>



         The unratified Termination Agreement would also provide that all
unvested shares of restricted stock and unvested options to purchase the
Company's Common Stock held by Coyote Consulting would be vested as of the date
of the Agreement, except that 50,000 unvested stock options granted June 1,
1996, with an exercise price of $7.125 per share would, pursuant to the terms of
the original grant, vest only if the Company's Common Stock trades at a price in
excess of $15.00 per share prior to June 1, 1999. At January 21, 1997, Coyote
Consulting held 105,000 shares of restricted stock, of which 25,000 were vested
prior to the Termination Agreement and a total of 250,000 stock options, of
which 50,000 were vested prior to the Termination Agreement. Mr. Greenberg has
not received a certificate for 50,000 of these restricted shares, and the
Company is disputing his entitlement to these shares.

         Coyote Consulting and Keith Greenberg have sued the Company alleging
that they are entitled to receive additional cash, stock and/or options in an
unspecified amount in connection with the termination of the Consulting
Agreement. The Company has not yet been required to answer the complaint but
intends to vigorously defend the claims and to assert cross-claims exceeding the
amount claimed by Coyote and Mr. Greenberg.
