                            FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS


     Information  provided  by  the  Company in this annual report contains, and
from  time  to  time  the  Company may disseminate materials and make statements
which may contain, "forward-looking" information, as that term is defined by the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Act"). In particular, the
information  contained  in  "Management's  Discussion  and Analysis of Financial
Condition  and  Results  of  Operation-Liquidity and Capital Resources" contains
information concerning the ability of the Company to service its obligations and
other  financial  commitments  as  they come due and "Company Strategy" contains
information  regarding  management's  belief concerning the growth opportunities
available to the Company. The aforementioned forward looking statements, as well
as  other forward looking statements made in this annual report are qualified in
their  entirety by these cautionary statements, which are being made pursuant to
the  provisions  of  the Act and with the intention of obtaining the benefits of
the  "safe  harbor"  provisions  of  the  Act.

     The  Company cautions investors that any forward-looking statements made by
the Company are not guarantees of future performance and that actual results may
differ  materially  from  those in the forward-looking statements as a result of
various  factors,  including,  but  not  limited  to,  the  following:

(a)     In recent years, an increasing number of legislative proposals have been
introduced  or  proposed  by Congress and in some state legislatures which would
effect  major  changes  in  the  healthcare  system. However, the Company cannot
predict  the  form  of  healthcare  reform legislation, which may be proposed or
adopted by Congress or by state legislatures. Accordingly, the Company is unable
to  assess  the  effect of any such legislation on its business. There can be no
assurance  that  any such legislation will not have a material adverse impact on
the  future  growth,  revenues  and  net  income  of  the  Company.

(b)     The  Company  derives  substantial  portions  of  its  revenues  from
third-party  payers  including,  both  directly  and  indirectly,  government
reimbursement  programs  such  as Medicare and Medicaid and some portions of its
revenues  from non-governmental sources, such as commercial insurance companies,
health  maintenance  organizations  and  other  charge-based  contracted payment
sources.  Both  government  and  non-government  payers  have  undertaken
cost-containment  measures  designed  to limit payments to healthcare providers.
There  can be no assurance that payments under governmental and non-governmental
payer  programs  will  be  sufficient  to  cover the costs allocable to eligible
patients.  The  Company  cannot  predict  whether  or  what  proposals  or
cost-containment  measures  will be adopted or, if adopted and implemented, what
effect,  if  any,  such  proposals  might have on the operations of the Company.

(c)     The Company is subject to extensive federal, state and local regulations
governing  licensure, conduct of operations at existing facilities, construction
of  new  facilities,  purchase  or lease of existing facilities, addition of new
services,  certain  capital expenditures, cost-containment and reimbursement for
services  rendered. The failure to obtain or renew required regulatory approvals
or  licenses,  the  delicensing  of  facilities owned, leased or operated by the
Company  or  the  disqualification  of the Company from participation in certain
federal  and  state  reimbursement programs could have a material adverse effect
upon  the  operations  of  the  Company.


                                        3
<PAGE>
(d)     There  can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue its
substantial  historical  growth  or  be  able  to  fully  implement its business
strategies  or  that  management  will  be  able  to  successfully integrate the
operations  of  its  various  acquisitions.



                                     PART I


ITEM 1.    DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.

(a)  General  Development  of  Business.

     New  York  Health Care, Inc. (the "Company") is a licensed home health care
agency  engaged  primarily  in  supplying  the services of paraprofessionals who
provide  a  broad  range  of  health  care support services to patients in their
homes.  The  Company  was initially organized under the laws of the State of New
York,  in  February  1983.

     The Company operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week to receive referrals
and  coordinate  services  with  physicians,  case  managers, patients and their
families.

     The Company operates in all five boroughs of New York City and the counties
of Nassau, Westchester, Rockland, Orange, Dutchess, Ulster, Putnam and Sullivan,
in  the  State of New York. The Company, as a result of acquisitions as describe
elsewhere  in  this annual report, also operates in Jersey City, Edison, Bradley
Beach, Toms River, East Orange and Hackensack, New Jersey under the name Helping
Hands  Healthcare, (the business name of NYHC Newco Paxxon, Inc., a wholly owned
subsidiary  of  the  Company).  The  Company's services are supplied principally
pursuant to contracts with health care institutions and agencies such as various
county  Departments  of  Social  Services,  NYC  HRA,  New Jersey Medicaid, Beth
Abraham Health Services in the Bronx and Westchester County, Kingsbridge Medical
Center,  Mt.  Sinai  Medical  Center,  Aetna  US  Healthcare, and Gentiva Health
Services.

     The  Company's  primary  objective  is  to enhance its position in the home
health care market by increasing the promotion of its full service and specialty
health  care  capabilities  to  existing  and  new  referral sources; expand its
markets  and  enter  new  markets  by establishing additional branch offices and
acquiring  other related health care businesses; expand its provision of skilled
nursing  services,  principally  infusion  therapy  and the care of women during
pregnancy and their newborn children; and develop complimentary home health care
products  and  services, as well as maintaining its regular training and testing
programs,  and  recruitment  activities.


     On  October  11,  2001, the Company entered into a Stock For Stock Exchange
Agreement with The Bio Balance Corp., a privately-owned Delaware corporation, to
acquire  Bio  Balance  in  a  stock-for-stock  exchange  transaction  whereby  a
wholly-owned  subsidiary  of the Company will merge into Bio Balance and the Bio
Balance  shareholders  will  wind  up  owning approximately 90% of the Company's
outstanding common stock. Bio Balance is a development stage company, which owns
"probiotic"  technology  and  intellectual  property  and  has  engaged  in  the
research,  development  and  limited  marketing  in  Israel of a product for the
treatment  of  gastrointestinal  diseases  and  disorders in animals and humans,
including  Irritable  bowel  syndrome  ("IBS")  and  chronic  diarrhea.

     "Probiotics"  are  living  microorganisms  or microbial mixtures, which are
administered  to  benefit  the  animal  or human host by improving its microbial
balance  by  stimulating the growth of healthy bacteria.  Bio Balance has patent
applications  filed  in  Israel  and the United States on its core technologies.

     Bio  Balance's  first product, PROBACTRIX(TM), which has undergone toxicity
and  animal  studies in established laboratories in Israel and the former Soviet
Union,  has  received  Israeli  approval for veterinarian use and use as a human
food  supplement  and was available in Israeli pharmacies from August 2000 until
July 2001, when Bio Balance entered into an agreement to acquire all rights with
respect  to  the  product.  PROBACTRIX(TM)  consists  of a proprietary strain of
non-pathogenic  (i.e.  non-toxic)  M-17  Escherichia  Coli  ("E.coli")  bacteria
preserved  in  a  proprietary  vegetable  extract formulation.  Various clinical
studies  in  the  former  Soviet  Union  and  in  Israel,  as  well as published
scientific  articles  support  the  beneficial effects of non-pathogenic E.coli.

     Bio  Balance  intends  to  comply  with  applicable  requirements  for  the
introduction  of  its first product, PROBACTRIX(TM), to the United States market
as a medical food.  Medical foods are not subject to the FDA regulatory criteria
and  market  clearance  standards applicable to "drugs".  Instead, medical foods
are  food  ingredients.  As  such,  medical  foods  may  be marketed following a
self-determination  that  the  product is "generally recognized as safe" (GRAS).
Bio  Balance  commenced the GRAS determination process in the spring of 2002 and
presently  expects  completion  of  that  process  by  late  2002 or early 2003.
Following  completion  of  GRAS  determination,  and  assuming  GRAS  status  is
determined,  Bio  Balance  intends  to  conduct  at least two clinical trials to
obtain  statistically  significant  data  to  support  marketing  efforts before
commencing  marketing  of  PROBACTRIX(TM)  in  the  United  States.

     Bio  Balance  also  plans  on  introducing  a  version  of its product as a
pharmaceutical drug and thereafter market the product in the United States.  FDA
approval  of the product as a pharmaceutical drug is a time consuming and costly
process.  Bio  Balance has not as yet commenced the FDA approval process and has
no  current  time  table  to  begin  that  process.

     Bio Balance was incorporated on May 21, 2001 in the State of Delaware under
the  name  "The  Zig Zag Corp." and changed its name to The Bio Balance Corp. in
September  2001.  From  its  inception, Bio Balance has been a development stage
company  and  has  not  generated  any  revenues.  See  Item 1. - Description of
Business;  (c)  Narrative  Description  of  Business;  Acquisitions.

     The  Company  maintains  its  principal  office  at  1850  McDonald Avenue,
Brooklyn,  New York  11223,  telephone  (718) 375-6700.

Industry  Background

     According  to  the  Office  of  the  Actuary  at the Centers for Medicare &
Medicaid  Services,  national  health  expenditures  are  projected  to  reach
approximately  $2.8  trillion  in  2011,  growing  at  a mean annual rate of 7.3
percent during the forecast period of 2001-2011. Health care spending during the
forecast  period  is  projected  to  grow  2.5  percent per year faster than the
projected  gross  domestic  product,  so  that  by  2011  it  will  constitute
approximately  17.0  percent  of  projected  GDP  compared  to  13.2  percent in
2000.These  projections  and estimates are uncertain and ought to be regarded as
an indication of possible trends based upon various assumptions regarding future
macroeconomic  conditions  and  the  nature  and  impact of future institutional
changes in the health care sector of the national economy.

Aging  Population

     Although  the  growth  of  the  U.S.  population slowed somewhat during the
1990's  because  of  the relatively small number of babies born during the Great
Depression  of the 1930's, it is expected that the older population will burgeon
between  the  years  2010  and  2030  when the post WW II "baby boom" generation
reaches  age  65.  By  2030, it is projected that there will be approximately 70
million  older persons, more than twice the number in 2000. People 65 and older,
who  represented  12.4% of the population in the year 2000, are expected to grow
to  approximately  20%  of  the population by 2030.

Cost  Effectiveness  of  Home  Health  Care  Services

     Home  care  is  a  cost-effective  service,  not  only  for  individuals
recuperating  from  a  hospital  stay,  but  also  for  those  who, because of a
functional  or  cognitive  disability, find that they are unable to take care of
themselves.  More  than  20,000 providers deliver home care services to some 7.6
million  individuals  who  require  services because of acute illness, long-term
health conditions, permanent disability or terminal illness. Annual expenditures
for  home  health  care  were  projected  to  have  been  $41.3 billion in 2001.

     The  table  below  lists  some  examples  of  cost-effective  home  care by
comparing  the  average  Medicare  charges  on  a per-day basis for hospital and
skilled nursing facility to the average Medicare charge for a home health visit.

Patient  Preference  and  Physician  Acceptance.

     The  Company  believes  that, if possible in any given case, a patient will
prefer  to  be treated at home rather than in an institutional setting. Further,
in  the last decade, the medical profession has shown greater acceptance of home
health  care in the clinical management of patients. As evidence of this greater
acceptance,  the American Medical Association Councils on Scientific Affairs and
Medical  Education  has recommended that training in the principles and practice
of  home  health  care  be  incorporated  into  the  undergraduate, graduate and
continuing  education  of  physicians.


Incidences of AIDS and Cancer.

     During  2001, approximately 5 million people became infected with the human
immunodeficiency  virus  (HIV),  which  causes AIDS, and approximately 3 million
people  died  from  HIV/AIDS,  a  higher global total than in any year since the
beginning  of  the  epidemic,  despite  antiretroviral therapy which reduced the
incidence  of  AIDS  and  AIDS  deaths in the richer countries. Deaths among the
already  infected  are  expected  to continue to increase for some years even if
prevention  programs  manage  to  cut  the  number  of  new  infections to zero.
(AVERT.ORG,  Worldwide  HIV  &  AIDS  Epidemic  Statistics
             ---------------------------------------------
http://www.avert.org/worlstatinfo.htm).  However,  with  the  HIV-  positive
-------------------------------------
population  still  expanding,  the  annual  number of AIDS deaths is expected to
increase  for  many years. As of the end of June 2001, 793,026 AIDS cases in the
USA  had  been  reported  to  the  Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Of
these,  79%  were men, 21% were women and 1% were children less than 13 years of
age.  (United  States  HIV  &  AIDS  Statistics  Summary  Aids  Statistics,
       -------------------------------------------------------------------
http://www.avert.org.statsum.htm).
--------------------------------

     Cancer  is  the second leading cause of death in the U.S., exceeded only by
heart  disease,  with  one  of  ever four deaths is occurring from cancer. Since
1990,  approximately  16  million  new  cancer  cases  have  been  diagnosed and
approximately  1,284,900  new cancer cases are expected to be diagnosed in 2002,
not  including carcinoma in situ (noninvasive cancer) of any site except urinary
bladder,  or  basal and squamous cell skin cancers. More than 1 million cases of
basal  and  squamous  cancers  are  expected  to  be  diagnosed  in  2002  and
approximately  555,500  Americans are expected to die of cancer, more than 1,500
people  a  day.  (American  Cancer  Society,  Surveillance  Research  2002,

(c)  Narrative  Description  of  Business

     The Company's personnel currently provides a broad range of home health and
personal  care  support  services  in  capacities  ranging  from  companions  to
live-ins, including assistance with personal hygiene, dressing and feeding, meal
preparation,  light housekeeping and shopping and, to a limited extent, physical
therapy and standard skilled nursing services such as the changing of dressings,
injections,  catheterizations  and  administration of medications. The Company's
personnel also train patients in their own care, monitor patient compliance with
treatment plans, make reports to the physicians and process reimbursement claims
to  third-party  payers.  Among the paraprofessionals and nurses supplied by the
Company are those fluent in Spanish, Mandarin and Cantonese Chinese, Yiddish and
Russian  as well as personnel knowledgeable in the requirements and practices of
Kosher  homes.


Home  Health  Care  Services

     The  Company's  home  health  care services are provided principally by its
professional  and  paraprofessional staff, who provide personal care to patients
and,  to  a  lesser  extent,  by  its skilled nursing staff, who provide various
therapies  employing  medical  supplies  and  equipment  and  infusion  therapy.
Personal  care  and  nursing services for a particular patient can extend from a
few  visits to years of service and can involve intermittent or continuous care.
Approximately  97% of the Company's total net revenues in 2001 were attributable
to  services  by  its  paraprofessional  staff.


Certified  Paraprofessionals

     The  Company's  certified  paraprofessional staff provides a combination of
unskilled  nursing and personal care services to patients, as well as assistance
with daily living, tasks such as hygiene and feeding. Consistent with applicable
regulations,  all  of  the  Company's  aides  are  certified  and work under the
supervision  of a licensed professional nurse. Certain aides have been specially
trained  by the Company to work with patients with particular needs, such as new
mothers  and  their  newborn  infants, patients with particular diseases such as
Cancer,  AIDS  or Alzheimer's Disease and particular classes of patients such as
the  developmentally  disabled  and  terminally  ill.

     The  Company  is  approved  by  New York State Department of Health for the
training  and  certification of Home Health Aides and by the New York Department
of  Social  Services to train and certify Personal Care Aides.  In addition, the
Company  is  approved  by  the  New Jersey Board of  Nursing for the training of
Certified  Home  Health  Aides  in  the  State of New Jersey.  Medicare provides
reimbursement solely for Home Health Aide Service, while Medicaid is responsible
for reimbursement for both Home Health Aide and Personal Care Aide Services.  In
order  to  provide  a  qualified  and  reliable  staff, the Company continuously
recruits,  trains,  provides  continuing  education  for and offers benefits and
other  programs  to  encourage  retention  of its staff. Recruiting is conducted
primarily  through  advertising,  direct  contact  with  community  groups  and
employment  programs, and the use of benefits programs designed to encourage new
employee  referrals  by  existing  employees.

     All  paraprofessional  personnel  must  pass  a  written  exam and a skills
competency test prior to employment, with all certificates having been validated


                                        7
<PAGE>
by  the  issuing agency. The Director of Nursing in each of the Company's branch
offices  validates  the  professional  competency  of all new hires. Newly hired
employees  are  re-evaluated  as  to  competency  within  six  months  of  their
employment  and  all  employees  are re-evaluated on an on-going basis, at least
semi-annually.  In  addition, they undergo an orientation program which includes
material  regarding HIV, Hepatitis B, universal precautions, patients rights and
the  Company's  policies  and  procedures.

     Competition  for  qualified  staff  continues  to  be  intense. The Company
competes  to  attract  and  retain  personnel  on  the basis of compensation and
working  conditions. Among the benefits, which the Company provides to its staff
are  competitive  salaries,  a  401(k)  Plan,  employee-funded health insurance,
vacations and bonuses. The Company has generally not experienced difficulties in
the  past  in attracting and retaining personnel. It believes it will be able to
compete  effectively in this area and satisfy its overall staffing requirements.
However,  there  can be no assurance that shortages of health care professionals
in  the  future  will  not  occur and such shortages could materially effect the
Company's  ability  to  maintain  or  increase  its  current  commitments.


Licensed  Professional  Nurses

     The  Company  employs  licensed professional nurses (both registered nurses
and  licensed  practical  nurses)  who  provide special and general professional
nursing  services  (these  nurses are employed on a per diem basis). The Company
also  employs registered nurses who are responsible for training and supervising
the  Company's  paraprofessional staff, as well as providing backup in the field
for  the  nursing  staff which is providing care (these nurses are employed on a
salaried  basis).  General  nursing  care is provided by registered and licensed
practical nurses and includes periodic assessment of the appropriateness of home
care, the performance of therapy procedures, and patient and family instruction.
Patients  receiving  such  care  include  stabilized  postoperative  patients
recovering  at home, patients who, although acutely ill, do not need to be cared
for  in  an  acute  care facility and patients who are chronically or terminally
ill.

     Specialty  nurses are registered nurses with experience or certification in
particular  specialties,  such  as  emergency service, intensive care, oncology,
intravenous  therapy  or  infant  and  pediatric  nursing.  The  Company employs
specialty  nurses  to provide a variety of therapies and special care regimes to
patients in their homes. These specialty nurses also instruct patients and their
families  in  the  self-administration  of  certain  therapies  and in infection
control,  emergency procedures and the proper handling and usage of medications,
medical  supplies  and  equipment.

     The  Company's  licensed  professional  nurses  also provide a very limited
amount of in-home administration to patients of nutrients, antibiotics and other
medications  intravenously  (into  a  vein),  subcutaneously (under the skin) or
through  feeding  tubes, utilizing supplies provided by licensed suppliers. Such
intravenous  therapy  is  used for antibiotic treatment, parental nutrition (the
administration of nutrients), enteral nutrition (the administration of nutrients
directly into the digestive tract), growth hormone therapy, pain management, and
chemotherapy.  The  duration,  progression and complexity of infusion therapy is
governed  by  the  patient's disease and condition and can range anywhere from a
few  weeks  to  many  years.

     All  nurses  hired  by  the Company must have at least one year of current,
verifiable experience, including references and license verification. All nurses
working  in  specialty  areas  must  have  at  least  two  years  of experience.

     While the provision of licensed professional nursing services accounted for
less than 3% of the Company's net revenues in 2001, the Company has expanded its
nursing  operations in its existing markets as well as new geographic locations.
See  "Company  Strategy."

Company  Strategy

     The  Company  continues  to  move  towards  its  objective  to  become  a
comprehensive  provider  of  efficient  and  high quality home health care to an
increased  share  of  expanding  markets.  The primary elements of the Company's
strategy to achieve this objective are geographic expansion of its branch office
network  by  investment  in  additional branch offices and by the acquisition of
other  home  health care companies, and by expansion of the services provided by
its  licensed professional nurses, principally in the areas of infusion therapy,
pediatrics  and  maternal/child care. The Company has concentrated its expansion
efforts  in  its  current market areas and the counties surrounding those market
areas.  In  addition  to  expansion  into  geographic  areas in proximity to the
Company's  current  branch  offices,  the  Company  generally seeks to enter and
expand into new metropolitan areas in the Northeast and Southeast regions of the
United  States which have large patient populations and, in particular, patients
traveling  between  these  regions.

     The  Company's proposed acquisition of The Bio Balance Corporation is a new
direction  in  an  effort  to make a difference in the health care industry. Bio
Balance  is  a privately held development stage company which has engaged in the
research,  development  and  limited  marketing  in  Israel  of  a  "probiotic
technology"  product  for  the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders in humans
and  farm  animals,  including  Irritable  Bowel  Syndrome  ("IBS")  and chronic
diarrhea, which is reported to effect up to 40 million Americans and over 10% of
the  population  of  Western countries.  Pharmaceutical companies have published
data suggesting that an effective treatment for IBS could have sales that exceed
one  billion  dollars  per  year.  The  Company's  strategy  for  the  proposed
acquisition  is  to  pursue  the development and marketing of products utilizing
this  technology  in  a  effort  to significantly improve the Company's economic
growth,  as  well  as  to participate in the development of what appears to be a
promising  treatment  for  these  debilitating  disorders  that  effect  so many
Americans.


Acquisitions

     On  December  8,  1997,  Helping  Hands  Healthcare  purchased  from  Metro
Healthcare  Services,  Inc.,  a  New Jersey corporation ("Metro"), the home care
business  assets  (other  than accounts receivable) which Metro operated in West
Orange, Budd Lake and Jersey City, New Jersey for a purchase price consisting of
$580,000 paid at closing and a promissory note in the principal sum of $200,000,
which  has  been  paid in full.  As part of the acquisition transaction, Helping
Hands Healthcare assumed various leasehold obligations for offices together with
various  equipment  leases  for  items  of  business  equipment.

     On February 8, 1998, Helping Hands Healthcare purchased from Metro the home
care  business  assets  (other than accounts receivable) which Metro operated in
Edison, Shrewsbury and Toms River, New Jersey for a purchase price consisting of
$500,000 paid at closing and a promissory note in the principal sum of $580,000,
which  has  been  paid  in full. As part of the acquisition transaction, Helping
Hands  Healthcare  assumed  various  leasehold  obligations.

     On  March  26, 1998, Helping Hands Healthcare purchased from Heart to Heart
Healthcare  Services, Inc., a New Jersey corporation ("Heart to Heart") the home


                                        9
<PAGE>
care  business  assets  (other  than  accounts  receivable) which Heart to Heart
operated  in  East  Orange  and  Hackensack,  New  Jersey  for  a purchase price
consisting  of  a  promissory note in the principal sum of $1,150,000, which has
been  paid  in  full.  As  part  of  the  acquisition transaction, Helping Hands
Healthcare assumed various leasehold obligations together with various equipment
leases  for  items  of  business  equipment.

     Jerry  Braun and Jacob Rosenberg, who are directors and the Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Operating Officer, respectively, of the Company, together with
Hirsch  Chitrik,  Sid  Borenstein and a former director of the Company, are sole
stockholders  of  Heart  to Heart. The Company therefore obtained an independent
opinion  form  Loeb  Partners  Corporation  that the terms and conditions of the
acquisition  were,  under  all  circumstances,  fair  to  the  Company.

     On February 22, 1999, Helping Hands Healthcare completed the acquisition of
the  assets  of  a  home  health care office in Shrewsbury, New Jersey, formerly
owned  by Staff Builders Services, ("Staff Builders") Inc., for a purchase price
of  $65,000.

     On  June 11, 1999 Helping Hands Healthcare completed the acquisition of the
assets  of  a  Staff Builders home health care office in Hackensack, New Jersey,
for  the  purchase  price  of  $25,700.

     On  October  23, 1999 New York Health Care completed the acquisition of the
assets  of  a Staff Builders home health care office in Manhattan, New York, for
the  purchase  price of $30,000.  The business of this office was transferred to
other  existing  New  York  Health  Care  offices.

     Due  to  a decrease in revenue and projected reductions in revenue from the
operations  of certain offices and the closing of Shrewsbury, Budd Lake and West
Orange offices located in New Jersey, the Company evaluated the ongoing value of
its  intangible assets associated with those acquisitions which were made by the
Company from December 1997 through February 1999.  Based on this evaluation, the
Company  determined  that  the  intangible  assets  with  a  carrying  amount of
$1,688,134  were  impaired.  Accordingly, the Company reduced the estimated fair
value  of  those  intangible  assets  by  $1,487,192  as a charge to operations.
Estimated fair value was based on the value associated with current purchases of
similar  companies  in  the  home  health  care  industry.

     The  Company management believes that it has successfully integrated all of
its  acquisitions,  with minimum interruptions to its daily operations. This has
been  accomplished by the formation of a mergers and acquisitions ("M&A") group,
which includes Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial
Officer  and  Vice  President of Clinical Operations. The Company has integrated
its  billing,  payroll and clinical services to all new locations to ensure they
meet  its  high  quality  standards. The experience acquired during this process
should  allow  the Company to continue down its path of significant M&A activity
in  order  to  become  one  of  the leading home health agencies in the New York
metropolitan  area.

     The Company is accounting for each of these acquisitions as a "purchase" in
accordance  with  Generally  Accepted  Accounting  Principles.


     New  York Health Care and Bio Balance have agreed to a business combination
transaction  pursuant  to a Stock for Stock Exchange Agreement dated October 11,
2001,  as  amended February 13, 2002, July 10, 2002 and August 13, 2002 in which
New  York  Health Care Acquisition, Inc., a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary
of  the  Company, will merge into Bio Balance after an exchange of Bio Balance's
outstanding shares of common stock and warrants for an equal number of shares of
New  York  Health  Care  common stock and warrants, and Bio Balance will thereby
become  a  wholly-owned  subsidiary  of  New  York  Health  Care.  Bio  Balance
shareholders  will wind up owning approximately 90% of the Company's outstanding
common  stock.



                                       10
<PAGE>
     Bio Balance was incorporated on May 21, 2001 in the State of Delaware under
the  name  "The  Zig Zag Corp." and changed its name to The Bio Balance Corp. in
September  2001.  From  its  inception, Bio Balance has been a development stage
company  and  has  not generated any revenues.  Bio Balance raised approximately
$3,500,000 from four private placements which closed on June 27, 2001, August 1,
2001, November 30, 2001 and January 30, 2002. Joseph Stevens & Co, Inc. acted as
Placement  Agent  for  the  November  30, 2001 and January 30, 2002 offerings in
which  they  sold  a  total  of  730,656  shares  at  $3.00  per  share.

     Bio Balance Corp. owns "probiotic" technology and intellectual property and
has  engaged  in  the research, development and limited marketing in Israel of a
product  for the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases and disorders in animals
and  humans,  including  Irritable  Bowel Syndrome ("IBS") and chronic diarrhea.


     In  July  2001,  Bio  Balance  acquired  all  patents, patent applications,
know-how  and  intellectual property rights relating to certain probiotic agents
from  Danron  Ltd.,  Uprising  Investment Ltd., and Kimmey Trading Ltd., each of
which  are  unaffiliated  third  parties  engaged  in the research, development,
marketing  and  sales  of  probiotic  bacteria  and  other  technology  for cash
consideration  of $510,000 and an aggregate of 990,000 Bio Balance Shares. Under
the  terms  of  the  agreement  pursuant  to  which  Bio  Balance  acquired  the
intellectual  property rights, Danron Ltd., Uprising Investment Ltd., and Kimmey
Trading  Ltd.  have  an option to repurchase the intellectual property rights by
returning  the  990,000  Bio  Balance Shares if Bio Balance has not completed an
initial  public  offering  or  combination  with a publicly traded company on or
before November 13, 2002. Further, the agreement provides that, in the event the
aggregate value of the shares received by Danron Ltd., Uprising Investment Ltd.,
and  Kimmey  Trading Ltd. in a stock-for-stock exchange is less than $1,980,000,
or  $2.00  per  share, the number of shares to be received by those shareholders
shall  be  increased  such that the total value of such shares at closing is not
less  than  $1,980,000  and  the  interest  of the remaining shareholders of Bio
Balance  shall  be  reduced  proportionately.


     "Probiotics"  are  living  microorganisms  or microbial mixtures, which are
administered  to  benefit  the  animal  or human host by improving its microbial
balance  by  stimulating the growth of healthy bacteria.  Bio Balance has patent
applications  filed  in  Israel  and the United States on its core technologies.

     Bio  Balance's  first product, PROBACTRIX(TM), which has undergone toxicity
and  animal  studies in established laboratories in Israel and the former Soviet
Union,  has  received  Israeli  approval for veterinarian use and use as a human
food  supplement  and was available in Israeli pharmacies from August 2000 until
July  2001 when Bio Balance entered into an agreement to acquire all rights with
respect  to  the  product.  PROBACTRIX(TM)  consists  of a proprietary strain of
non-pathogenic  (i.e.  non-toxic)  M-17  Escherichia  Coli  ("E.coli")  bacteria
preserved  in  a  proprietary  vegetable  extract formulation.  Various clinical
studies  in  the  former  Soviet  Union  and  in  Israel,  as  well as published
scientific  articles  support  the  beneficial effects of non-pathogenic E.coli.

     Bio  Balance  intends  to  comply  with  applicable  requirements  for  the
introduction  of  its first product, PROBACTRIX(TM), to the United States market
as a medical food.  Medical foods are not subject to the FDA regulatory criteria
and  market  clearance  standards applicable to "drugs".  Instead, medical foods
are  food  ingredients.  As  such,  medical  foods  may  be marketed following a
self-determination  that  the  product is "generally recognized as safe" (GRAS).
Bio  Balance  commenced the GRAS determination process in the spring of 2002 and
presently  expects  completion  of  that  process  by  late  2002 or early 2003.
Following  completion  of  GRAS  determination,  and  assuming  GRAS  status  is
determined,  Bio  Balance  intends  to  conduct  at least two clinical trials to
obtain  statistically  significant  data  to  support  marketing  efforts before
commencing  marketing  of  PROBACTRIX(TM)  in  the  United  States.

     Bio Balance also plans on introducing a version of its product as a
pharmaceutical drug and thereafter market the product in the United States.  FDA
approval of the product as a pharmaceutical drug is a time consuming and costly
process.  Bio Balance has not as yet commenced the FDA approval process and has
no current time table to begin that process.


     The  terms  of  the transaction require that Bio Balance complete a private
placement  of  shares  of its common stock at a price of not less than $2.00 per
share  in which it raises $6,000,000 in its private placement. If Bio Balance is
unable  to  raise  at  least  $5,000,000 in the private placement by the closing
date,  New  York Health Care may cancel the merger transaction. As of August 28,
2002,  Bio  Balance must raise an additional $2,117,033 by selling an additional
1,058,517  shares  of its common stock. The net proceeds of that transaction are
to  be  used  exclusively  for  the  operations  of  Bio Balance. Similarly, the
Company's  revenues  from  its  ongoing  operations and its sources of financing
(including  its  $4,000,000  line  of credit) are to be used exclusively for its
home  health  care  business  and  related  operations.


     The  line  of  credit  is  provided  by  Heller Healthcare Finance, Inc., a
Maryland  corporation,  pursuant to a November 28, 2000 agreement establishing a
$4,000,000  revolving  credit  loan  to  the  Company  secured  by the Company's
accounts  receivable,  contract  rights, intellectual property rights, inventory
and  equipment.  The  credit  facility  may be used only for working capital and
other costs arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company is permitted
to  maintain outstanding borrowings to the  extent  of a borrowing base of up to
85%  of  qualified  accounts  receivable. Heller Finance has the right to reduce
the borrowing base by applying a liquidity factor percentage based upon a recent
collection history formula. Currently the application of that formula results in
97%  of  qualified accounts being part of the borrowing base. The Heller Finance
revolving credit line is for a term of two years and bears interest at the prime
rate  charged  by Fleet Bank, N.A. plus 2.5% and provides  for  monthly payments
of  interest  on  the  outstanding  balance on the basis of the actual number of
days  elapsed  over  a year of 360 days. The Company utilizes the line of credit
from  time  to  time,  and  at the present time there is no balance outstanding.


                                       11
<PAGE>

    As  of  the  closing of the transaction (expected to occur in October 2002),
New York Health Care will increase of its authorized shares of common stock from
50,000,000  to  100,000,000  and  its  authorized shares of preferred stock from
2,000,000 to 5,000,000, and will effect a 1 for 1.5 share reverse stock split of
its common stock, which will  result  in 2,474,486 issued and outstanding shares
of  common  stock,  25,513 treasury shares, 393,583 shares reserved for issuance
upon  the  conversion of outstanding preferred stock and 990,168 shares reserved
for  issuance  upon  the exercise of currently outstanding options and warrants.
The  Company's  subsidiary,  NYHC  Acquisition,  will  merge  with  and into Bio
Balance, and each outstanding share and warrant of Bio Balance will be exchanged
for  an  equal  number  of  New York Health Care shares and warrants, which will
result in the former shareholders of Bio Balance owning up to 23,143,334 Shares,
or  approximately  90%,  of all of the issued and outstanding of New York Health
Care shares, together with warrants to purchase an additional 483,066 shares. At
July 15, 2002, there were 261 holders of Bio Balance common stock. The principal
officers  and  directors of Bio Balance are Paul Stark, Joseph Herbst and Jeanne
Quinto.  The  principal  shareholders  of  Bio  Balance  are  Hershey  Holdings,
Birimiza  Associates,  KPT  Partners  and  Nekavim  Investors,  holding  in  the
aggregate  approximately 39% of the outstanding shares.  together  with an There
will  be up to 25,617,820 issued and outstanding shares of common stock upon the
closing  of  the  transaction.


     The  Company's  six-seat  Board  of  Directors  will consist of four of the
present  directors,  including  the  Company's  president and secretary, and two
directors  appointed  by Bio Balance, Paul Stark and David C. Katz. The terms of
the  existing employment agreements of the Company's president and secretary are
expected  to  be  extended  for five years. See Item 9 - Directors and Executive
Officers  of  the  Company;  Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act -
Employment  Agreements;  and  Item  12  -  Certain  Relationships  and  Related
Transactions.

     The  Company  has  filed  with  the  SEC  a Form S-4 registration statement
describing  the  exchange  offer  including  a  prospectus/proxy  statement  for
distribution  to  New York Health Care shareholders for the shareholders meeting
to be held to obtain shareholder approval of the transaction, and to Bio Balance
shareholders.

     Upon  the completion of the transaction, a total of 18,387,949 (post-split)
shares  will  be subject to restrictions on sale in accordance with the terms of
the  Exchange  Agreement. A total of 17,396,625 shares of New York Health Care's
common stock issued to Bio Balance shareholders will be restricted from sale for
various  periods  of  time ranging from as early as 120 days after the effective
date  of  the  Form S-4 registration statement and as late as August 10, 2003. A
total  of  991,324 (post-split) shares of New York Health Care common stock held
of  record  and  beneficially  by  its  President  and  Vice-President,  who are
restricted  shareholders,  will be restricted from sale for a period of 120 days
after  the  date  of  the effective date of the Form S-4 registration statement,
after  which  they  will  be  able to sell not more than 10% of their shares per
month  for  as  long  as  they  are  directors  of  New York Health Care.  These
restrictions,  however,  do  permit  transfers  to  family trusts and registered
charities provided the transferees abide by the restrictions, although they will
be permitted to sell not more than 1,000 shares of common stock each trading day
during a period ending 120 days after the date of the effective date of the Form
S-4  registration  statement,  after  which  the  restriction  will  expire.  In
addition, New York Health Care may release the restriction on the shares held by
the restricted shareholders provided it also releases restrictions on the shares
issued  to  Bio  Balance  shareholders  in  a  ratio  of  one  share held by the
restricted  shareholders  for  two  shares held by the Bio Balance shareholders.


     New  York  State  Department of Health regulations provide requirements for
the licensing of home health care services agencies and significant transfers of
their  ownership.  Any  transfer  to  a  person  or entity of 10% or more of the
capital  stock  generally requires some form of clearance by the New York State.
Obtaining  clearance  generally  involves  a  showing  of  good  character  and
competence  on  the  part  of  all of the officers and directors of the licensed
company  and any holder or transferee of 10% or more of the Company's stock. The
Company  met  with  representatives  of  the  DOH in October 2001 to discuss the
proposed  Bio Balance transaction. Based upon management's representations that:
Bio Balance will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company; no Bio Balance
shareholder  or  affiliated group will be acquiring 10% or more of the Company's
issued and outstanding equity shares; Bio Balance will not exercise control over
the  Company's  home  health  care  operations  or  any other business under the
jurisdiction of the DOH and is not seeking a license; and the Company's board of
directors  will  at closing have a majority of members who are current directors
of  the  Company  and  will  continue  to  be  free from control by Bio balance,
management  was has been informally advised by the Associate Director, Licensure
&  Surveillance,  of DOH that the transaction does not require any action by the
Department  of  Health  or  Public  Health  Council.


     The  Company  has  filed  with  the  SEC  a Form S-4 Registration Statement
describing  the  exchange offer together with a proxy statement for distribution
to  its  shareholders  for  the  shareholders  meeting  to  be  held  to  obtain
shareholder  approval  of  the  Transaction.

Branch  Offices

     The  home health care industry is, fundamentally, a local one in which both
the  patients and the referral sources (such as hospitals, home health agencies,
social service agencies and physicians) are located in the local geographic area
in  which  the  services  are provided.  The Company seeks to serve local market
needs  through  its  branch  office  network,  run  by  branch  managers who are
responsible  for  all  aspects  of  local  office  decision-making,  including
recruiting,  training,  staffing,  and marketing.  In December 1997, the Company
acquired  three  branch  offices  in West Orange, Budd Lake and Jersey City, New
Jersey.  In  February  1998,  the  Company  acquired  an additional three branch
offices  in  Edison,  Shrewsbury  and Toms River, New Jersey. In March 1998, the
Company  acquired  another two branch offices in East Orange and Hackensack, New
Jersey.  In February 1999, the Company acquired the assets of a branch office in
Shrewsbury,  New  Jersey.  In  June  1999,  the Company acquired the assets of a
branch  office in Hackensack, New Jersey.  In October 1999, the Company acquired
the assets of a branch office in Manhattan.  See Item 1(a) - General Development
of  Business;  Item  2  -  Description  of  Properties;  Item  6  - Management's
Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Financial  Condition  and Results of Operations -
Liquidity and Capital Resources; and Item 12 - Certain Relationships and Related
Transactions.  The Company intends to open additional branch offices in New York
State,  subject  to  entering  agreements  with the local New York Department of
Social  Services agencies. In addition, the Company hopes to expand further into
New  Jersey,  Pennsylvania  and Connecticut in order to offer a wider geographic
coverage  to  the  health  maintenance  organizations  ("HMO's") and health care
insurance  organizations  with  which  it  deals,  and  to  add  additional
organizations.  This  further  expansion  is subject to the completion of market
surveys  in the various locations to ascertain the extent to which existing home
care  medical  needs  are  not  being met as well as competition and recruitment
issues.

Infusion  Therapy

     The  Company  presently  provides  infusion  therapy  service  to patients,
utilizing  pharmaceuticals  provided  by licensed suppliers. Management believes
that  the  total  market  for home infusion therapy is continuing its growth and
that  increasing  the  provision of infusion therapy will build on the Company's
strength in providing nursing services, because such therapies generally require
administration  by  specialty  nurses.  The  Company  will  also  seek to supply
infusion  therapy  patients  with  the  other  home  health  care  services  and
therapies,  which  they  often  require  and  which  are offered by the Company.
However,  there  can  be  no assurance that the Company will expand its infusion
therapy  business  or,  if  expanded  that  it will conduct such a business on a
profitable  basis.

Professional  Care  Resources

     The Company intends to expand its skilled nursing programs in order to meet
the  needs  which  management  believes  are  being  created  by early discharge
programs.  The  existing  referral base utilized by the Company from the various
agencies, insurance companies, social workers, case managers and physicians will
be  used  to  meet  what  management perceives to be a need not being met by the
current  pool  of  home  health  care  agencies.  The  Company  expects that the
expansion  of  this  program  will  require  the hiring of an additional service
directors  with  an  extensive  background  in  skilled  nursing  to  assist the
Directors of Nursing in each of the Company's branch offices. Additional support
staff  will  also  be  required,  as  well as new training, materials, assistant
directors,  coordinators  and  marketing  staff.

Organization  and  Operations

     The  Company  operates  24  hours  a  day,  seven  days  a week, to receive
referrals  and  coordinate services with physicians, case managers, patients and
their  families.  The  Company  provides  services  through its 11 principal and
branch  offices  and two recruitment and training, offices. The Company seeks to
achieve  economies  of  scale by having each branch office serve a large patient
population. Each office conducts its own marketing efforts, negotiates contracts
with  referral  sources, recruits and trains professionals and paraprofessionals
and  coordinates  patient care and care givers. Each office is typically staffed
with  a  branch  manager,  director  of  nursing,  nursing supervisor, home care
coordinators,  clerical  staff  and  nursing  services  staff.

     The  Company's  principal  office retains all functions necessary to ensure
quality of patient care and to maximize financial efficiency. Services performed
at  the  principal  office  include  billing  and collection, quality assurance,
financial  and  accounting  functions,  policy and procedure development, system
design  and  development,  corporate development and marketing. The Company uses
financial  reporting  systems  through  which  it  monitors data for each branch
office,  including  patient mix, volume, collections, revenues and staffing. The
Company's systems also provide monthly budget analysis, financial comparisons to
prior  periods  and  comparisons  among  the  Company's  branch  offices.

Work  Flow

     A  case  is initiated by one of the Company's referral sources contacting a
branch  office  and  advising  it  of the patient's general location, diagnosis,
types  of  services required, hours of service required and the time of day when
the  services  are  to be rendered. The branch office then contacts the referral
source  as  promptly as possible with the identification of the staff person who
will  be rendering the service, after which the referral source transmits to the
branch  office  a  detailed  copy of the plan for the patient's home care, which
includes  the  type  of  care  to  be rendered, the method by which it should be
rendered,  the  precise  location  and  hours.

     The  supervisory staff at the branch office then reviews the care plan with
the staff member(s) who will be providing the care and then dispatches the staff
member(s)  to  begin  rendering  the  care,  usually  the  next  day.

     The  clerical  staff  at  the  branch  office enters all of the information
regarding  the  case  into the local area computer network of the branch office,
which then generates the work schedule for the staff member(s), which provides a
detailed  description  of  the  services to be rendered, the hours and number of
days  during  which  the  care  is  to  be  provided. All of this information is
spontaneously received by the Company's principal office by way of the wide area
computer  network  linking  the  principal office to each of the branch offices.
This  information is then processed by the principal office computer system on a
weekly  basis  to  (generate  the documentation of the services being provided).
Such  documentation is then used to generate the billing for the service as well
as  process  the  payroll  for  the  staff  member(s)  providing  the  service.


Referral  Sources

     The  Company  obtains  patients primarily through contracts, referrals from
hospitals, community-based health care institutions and social service agencies,
case  management and insurance companies. Referrals from these sources accounted
for  substantially  all  of  the  Company's  net  revenues  in 2001. The Company
generally  conducts  business  with  most of its institutional referral sources,
including  those referred to below, under one-year contracts which fix the rates
and terms of all future referrals but do not require that any referrals be made.
Under  these  contracts,  the referral sources refer patients to the Company and
the  Company bills the referral sources for services provided to patients. These
contracts  also  generally designate the kinds of services to be provided by the
Company's employees, liability insurance requirements, billing and recordkeeping
responsibilities,  complaint  procedures,  compliance  with applicable laws, and
rates  for  employee  hours  or  days  depending on the services to be provided.
Approximately  220  such  contracts  were  in  effect  as  of December 31, 2001.

     In  January  1999,  the Company obtained a significant referral source from
The  City  of  New  York  to  provide services for Medicaid patients residing in
Brooklyn,  New  York.  In October 1999, the Company was recommended for an award
of  an  extension  of  up  to  six  years.  The annualized gross revenues to the
Company  during  each  of  the  years  of  contract  implementation  would  be
approximately  $12  million,  for a potential total $72 million over the life of
the  agreement.  The  revenue  for  year  ended  2001  from  this  contract  was
approximately  $15,000,000.

     One  or  more referring institutions have accounted for more than 5% of the
Company's  net revenues during the Company's last two fiscal years, as set forth
in  the  following  table:

New York City Medicaid (HRA)                 45.05%     37.58%
New Jersey Medical Assistance Program        14.53%     15.17%
County Departments of Social Services (1)     6.81%      6.60%
Beth Abraham Health Services                  6.37%      5.27%
Mount Sinai Medical Center                    4.94%      5.32%

     (1)     The various county departments of social services are funded by the
New  York  State  Department of Health which, as of October 1, 1996, assumed the
responsibility  for  the overall administration of Medicaid programs in New York
formerly administered by the New York Department of Social Services.

     Overall,  the  Company's  ten  largest referring institutions accounted for
approximately  88%  of  net  revenues  for  2001  and approximately 81.2% of net
revenues  for  2000.


Billing  and  Collection

     The  Company  screens  each  new  case  to  determine  whether  adequate
reimbursement  will  be  available  and  has  developed substantial expertise in
processing  claims. The Company makes a concerted effort to provide complete and
accurate  claims  data  to the relevant payer sources in order to accelerate the
collectibility  of  its  accounts  receivable.

     Days  Sales  Outstanding ("DSO") is a measure of the average number of days
taken  by  the  Company  to collect its accounts receivable, calculated from the
date services are billed. For the year ended December 31, 2001 the companies DSO
was  61 compared to 84 for the year ended December 31, 2000.  The improvement of
23 days in DSO is the net effect of combining the New Jersey DSO of 30 days with
the Home Attendant program DSO of 38 days and New York's DSO which are 103 days.

     The  Company licenses the Dataline Home Care System, a computerized payroll
system  designed  to  produce  invoices for services rendered as a by-product of
employee  compensation.  Automated  schedules  and  staffing  requirements  are
maintained  in  the  Company's  offices,  with the ability to enter all relevant
patient and employee demographic information. The payroll is processed weekly at
the  Company's  principal office in Brooklyn. This office is responsible for the
processing  of  data,  ensuring  the  availability  of  all  required  billing
documentation  and  its accuracy, and the printing and distributing of payments.

     Once  payroll  processing  is  completed,  the  Company's  computer  system
generates  the  resulting invoices automatically. The necessary documentation is
attached  to  all  invoices  that  are  mailed  to  clients.

     In  the  opinion  of  management,  there  is  no reason to believe that any
computer  system  or  software  used  internally  by the Company will materially
affect  transactions  with any customer, supplier or business partner, now or in
the  future.

     Management  reviews  reports  for  all  phases  of  the billing process and
prepares reconciliations for the purpose of ensuring accuracy and maintenance of
controls. When errors are found, new processes are developed, as appropriate, to
ensure  and  improve  the  quality  and  accuracy  of  the  billing  process and
responsiveness  to  clients'  needs  and  requirements.

     Accounts  receivable  reports  are  produced  weekly  and  are analyzed and
reviewed  by staff and management to locate negative trends or emerging problems
which  would  require  immediate attention. All unpaid invoices are reviewed and


                                       16
<PAGE>
telephone  contacts  established  for  invoices  over 90 days old. The Company's
experience  with  collection  of  accounts  receivable  has been favorable, with
uncollectible  accounts  within  the  allowances  provided  by  the  Company.

     Private  patients are required to pay the one-week fee for their service in
advance,  as  a deposit for services to be provided. For patients with insurance
covering  home  health services, the Company accepts assignment of the insurance
and  submits  claims  if  the  carrier  first verifies coverage and eligibility.
Payments  from  private patients are required to be made weekly, as invoices are
submitted  and,  if unpaid over three weeks, result in follow-up telephone calls
to ensure prompt payment. Requests for terms from private patients are generally
honored  and  payment  arrangements  structured based on the patient's financial
resources  and  ability  to  pay.  Unresponsive accounts are referred to outside
collection  agencies.

Reimbursement

     The  Company  is  reimbursed  for  its  services,  primarily  by  referring
institutions,  such  as  health  care  institutions and social service agencies,
which in turn receive their reimbursement from Medicaid, Medicare and, to a much
lesser  extent,  through  direct  payments  by  insurance  companies and private
payers. New York State and New Jersey Medicaid programs constitute the Company's
largest  reimbursement source, when including both direct Medicaid reimbursement
and  indirect  Medicaid  payments  through  many  of  the  Company's  referring
institutions.  For  each  of 1999 and 2001, payments from referring institutions
which  receive  direct payments from Medicare and Medicaid, together with direct
reimbursement  to  the Company from Medicaid, accounted for approximately 97% of
net  revenues.  Direct  reimbursements  from  private  insurers,  prepaid health
plans,  patients and other private sources accounted for approximately 3% of net
revenues  for  each  of  the  calendar  years  2000  and  2001.

     The  New  York  State  Department  of  Health,  in  conjunction  with local
Departments  of  Social  Services,  promulgates  annual  reimbursement rates for
patients  covered  by  Medicaid.  These  rates  are  generally  established on a
county-by-county  basis,  using  a complex reimbursement formula applied to cost
reports  filed  by  providers.  Generally,  the  first  report  filed  (called a
"budgeted"  report) uses projections to develop the current year's reimbursement
rate,  subject  to retroactive recapture of any monies paid by local Departments
of  Social  Services  for  budgeted  expenses  which are greater than the actual
expenses  incurred.  The  Company has filed all required annual cost reports for
each  of  its  offices,  which  provide  services  to  Medicaid  recipients. The
Company's  expenses  have  always  equaled  or  exceeded  the  budgeted amounts.

     Third party payers, including Medicaid, Medicare and private insurers, have
taken extensive steps to contain or reduce the costs of health care. These steps
include  reduced  reimbursement  rates, increased utilization review of services
and  negotiated  prospective or discounted pricing and adoption of a competitive
bid  approach  to  service  contracts. Home health care, which is generally less
costly  to  third party payers than hospital-based care, has benefited from many
of  these  cost  containment  measures.

     On June 28, 2000, the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA) finalized
a  new  Medicare  Payment  System  to help assure appropriate reimbursements for
quality,  efficient home health care.  On October 1, 2000, Medicare began paying
all  certified  home  health  agencies  under a prospective payment system.  The
change  was  mandated  by  the  Balanced  Budget  Act of 1997 amended by Omnibus
Consolidated  and  Emergency  Supplemental  Appropriations  Act  of 1998 and the


                                       17
<PAGE>
Balanced  Budget  Refinement  Act of 1999.  While the Company is not currently a
Medicare-Certified  Home  Health  Agency  subject  to these changes, most of the
Company's  referral  sources  are  and  they  may be negatively impacted by this
legislation  which  was  adopted  to  control  home  health  care  costs.

     The  New  York  State  Department of Health issues Certificates of Need for
Certified  Home  Health  Agencies ("CHHA's"), which provide post-acute home care
services  for  people  who have just been discharged from a hospital but are not
yet  fully recovered, and Long-Term Home Health Care Programs ("LTHHCP's"), also
known  as the "Nursing Home Without Walls," which is intended to provide elderly
people  with  an alternative for long-term care other than by entering a nursing
home  at  less  than  the  cost of nursing home care. The Company negotiates its
contracts  with  CHHA's and LTHHCP's on the basis of services to be provided, in
connection  with  contracts  either currently in effect with the Company or with
other  agencies.  Prevailing market conditions are such that, despite escalating
operating  expenses, reduced contract rates are regularly "demanded" as a result
of  internal budget restraints and reductions mandated by managed care contracts
between  the  Company's  clients and HMO's and other third party administrators.
While  management  anticipates  that  this  trend  is likely to continue for the
foreseeable  future,  it  does  not  expect  the  impact  on  the  Company to be
significant,  since its rates are competitive and, therefore, are expected to be
subject  to  only  minor reductions. However, as expenditures in the home health
care  market continue to grow, initiatives aimed at reducing the costs of health
care  delivery  at  non-hospital  sites  are increasing. A significant change in
coverage or a reduction in payment rates by third party payers, particularly New
York  State  Medicaid,  would  have a material adverse effect upon the Company's
business.

Quality  Assurance

     The  Company has established a total quality management program including a
quality  assurance  program to ensure that its service standards are implemented
and that the objectives of those standards are met. The Company believes that it
has  developed  and implemented service standards that comply with or exceed the
service  standards  required by JCAHO. The Company received "Accreditation" from
JCAHO  after  its triannual survey in November 1997.  In November 2000, New York
Health  Care  was  surveyed  by JCAHO and received accreditation of its New York
offices  for  the next three years (expiring in November 2003).  New York Health
Care  did  not seek JCAHO accreditation for it's New Jersey offices because it's
not  required  by any of the contracts in that state.  The Company believes that
its  reputation  for  quality  patient  care  has been and will continue to be a
significant  factor  in its success. An adverse determination by JCAHO regarding
the Company on any branch office could adversely affect the Company's reputation
and  competitive  position.

     The  Company's  quality  assurance  program  includes  the  following:

     Quality Advisory Board. The Company maintains a Professional Advisory Board
for its branch offices, which consists of a physician, nursing professionals and
representatives of branch management. The Professional Advisory Board identifies
problems  and  suggests  ways  to improve patient care based on internal quality
compliance  audits  and  clinical  and  personnel  record  reviews.


                                       18
<PAGE>
     Internal  Quality  Compliance Review Process. Periodic internal reviews are
conducted  by  the  Company's  management  to  ensure  compliance  with  the
documentation  and  operating  procedures required by state law, JCAHO standards
and internal standards. Written reports are forwarded to the director of nursing
and branch managers. The Company believes that the internal review process is an
effective  management  tool  for  the  director  of nursing and branch managers.

     Case  Conferences.  Staff  professionals regularly hold case conferences to
review  problem  and  high  risk  cases,  the  physician's treatment and Company
services  provided  for  such cases in order to ensure appropriate, safe patient
care  and  to  evaluate  patient  progress  and  plans  for  future  care.

     Clinical  Record  Review. Clinical record review is the periodic evaluation
of  the  documentation  in patient clinical records. In this review process, the
Company  evaluates  the performance of the nursing services staff to ensure that
professional  and  patient  care  policies are followed in providing appropriate
care  and  that  the  needs  of  patients  are being met. Clinical record review
findings  are  documented  and reviewed by the applicable Quality Advisory Board
for  recommendations.


Sales  and  Marketing

     The  Company's  executive  officers,  Jerry  Braun and Jacob Rosenberg, are
principally responsible for the marketing of the Company's services. Each branch
office  director is also responsible for sales activities in the branch office's
local  market  area.  The  Company  attempts  to  cultivate  strong,  long-term
relationships  with  referral sources through high quality service and education
of local health care personnel about the appropriate role of home health care in
the  clinical  management  of  patients.


Government  Regulation

Home  Health  Care

     The federal government and the States of New York and New Jersey, where the
Company currently operates, regulates various aspects of the Company's business.
Changes  in  the law or new interpretations of existing laws can have a material
effect  on  permissible activities of the Company, the relative costs associated
with  doing  business  and  the  amount of reimbursement by government and other
third-party  payers.

     The  Company  is licensed by New York State as a home care services agency.
The  state  requires  approval  by  the  New  York  State  Public Health Council
("Council")  of  any  change  in  "the  controlling  person" of an operator of a
licensed  home  care services agency ("LHCSA"). Control of an entity is presumed
to  exist if any person owns, controls or holds the power to vote 10% or more of
the  voting  securities of the LHCSA. A person seeking approval as a controlling
person of a LHCSA, or of an entity that is the operator of a LHCSA, must file an
application  for  Council approval within 30 days of becoming controlling person
and,  pending a decision by the Council, such person may not exercise control of
the  LHCSA.  If any person should become the owner or holder, or acquire control
of  or  the right to vote 10% or more of the issued and outstanding Common Stock
of  the  Company,  such person could not exercise control of the Company's LHCSA
until  an  application  for  approval of such ownership, control or holding, has


                                       19
<PAGE>
been  submitted to the Council and approved. In the event such an application is
not  approved, such owner or holder may be required to reduce their ownership or
holding  to  less than 10% of the Company's issued and outstanding Common Stock.

     The  Company is also subject to federal and state laws prohibiting payments
for  patient  referrals  and  regulating  reimbursement procedures and practices
under  Medicare,  Medicaid and state programs. The federal Medicare and Medicaid
legislation  contains  anti-kickback provisions, which prohibit any remuneration
in  return  for  the referral of Medicare and Medicaid patients. Courts have, to
date,  interpreted  these  anti-kickbacks  laws  to  apply  to  a broad range of
financial  relationships. Violations of these provisions may result in civil and
criminal  penalties,  including fines of up to $15,000 for each separate service
billed  to  Medicare  in  violation  of the anti-kickback  provisions, exclusion
from  participation  in  the Medicare and state health programs such as Medicaid
and  imprisonment  for  up  to  five  years.

     The  Company's healthcare operations potentially subject it to the Medicare
and  Medicaid  anti-kickback  provisions  of  the  Social  Security  Act.  These
provisions  are broadly worded and often vague, and the future interpretation of
these  provisions  and their applicability to the Company's operations cannot be
fully  predicted with certainty. There can be no assurance that the Company will
be  able  to  arrange its acquisitions or business relationships so as to comply
with  these  laws or that the Company's present or future operations will not be
accused  of  violating', or be determined to have violated, such provisions. Any
such  result  could  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on  the  Company.

     Various Federal and state laws regulate the relationship among providers of
healthcare  services,  including employment or service contracts, and investment
relationships.  These laws include the broadly worded fraud and abuse provisions
of  the  Social  Security  Act  that are applicable to the Medicare and Medicaid
programs,  which  prohibit  various  transactions involving Medicare or Medicaid
covered  patients  or  services.  Among  other things, these provisions restrict
referrals  for certain designated health services by physicians to entities with
which  the physician or the physician's immediate family member has a "financial
relationship"  and  the  receipt  of remuneration by anyone in return for, or to
induce,  the  referral  of  a  patient  for  treatment  or purchasing or leasing
equipment  or  services  that  are paid for, in whole or in part, by Medicare or
Medicaid.  Violations  of  these  provisions  may  result  in  civil or criminal
penalties for individuals or entities and/or exclusion from participation in the
Medicare  and  Medicaid  programs. The future interpretation of these provisions
and  their  applicability  to the Company's operations cannot be fully predicted
with  certainty.

     In  May  1991,  the  United  States Department of Health and Human Services
adopted  regulations  creating  certain "safe harbors" from federal criminal and
civil  penalties  by  identifying  certain types of joint venture and management
arrangements  that  would  not be treated as violating the federal anti-kickback
laws  relating  to  referrals  of patients for services paid by the Medicare and
Medicaid  programs. It is not possible to accurately predict the ultimate impact
of  these  regulations  on  the  Company's  business.

     New  York  and  other states also have statutes and regulations prohibiting
payments  for  patient  referrals and other types of financial arrangements with
health  care  providers  which,  while  similar  in many respects to the federal
legislation,  vary  from  state  to state, are often vague and have infrequently
been  interpreted  by  courts or regulatory agencies. Sanctions for violation of
these  state  restrictions  may include loss of licensure and civil and criminal
penalties.  In  addition,  the  professional  conduct of physicians is regulated


                                       20
<PAGE>
under  state  law.  Under  New  York  law,  it  is  unprofessional conduct for a
physician to receive, directly or indirectly, any fee or other consideration for
the  referral  of  a  patient.  Finally,  under New York law, a physician with a
financial  interest  in a health care provider must disclose such information to
the  patients  and  advise  them  of  alternative  providers.

     The  Company believes that the foregoing arrangements in particular and its
operations  in  general  comply in all material respects with applicable federal
and  state  laws relating to anti-kickbacks, and that it will be able to arrange
its  future  business  relationships  so  as  to comply with the fraud and abuse
provisions.

     Management  believes  that the trend of federal and state legislation is to
subject  the  home  health  care  and  nursing  services  industry  to  greater
regulation,  particularly  in  connection  with  third-party  reimbursement  and
arrangements  designed  to  induce  or  encourage  the referral of patients to a
particular  provider  of  medical  services.  The  Company  is  attempting to be
responsive  to  such  regulatory  climate.  However,  the  Company  is unable to
accurately  predict  the  effect,  if  any,  of  such  regulations  or increased
enforcement  activities  on  the  Company's  future  results  of  operations.

     In  addition,  the Company is subject to laws and regulations, which relate
to  business  corporations  in  general,  including antitrust laws, occupational
health and safety laws and environmental laws (which relate, among other things,
to  the  disposal,  transportation  and  handling  of  hazardous  and infectious
wastes). None of these laws and regulations has had a material adverse effect on
the Company's business or competitive position or required material expenditures
on  the  part  of the Company, although no assurance can be given that such will
continue  to  be  the  case  in  the  future.

     The Company is unable to accurately predict what additional legislation, if
any,  may  be  enacted  in  the future relating to the Company's business or the
health  care  industry,  including third-party reimbursement, or what effect any
such  legislation  may  have  on  the  Company.

     The  Company has never been denied any license it has sought to obtain. The
Company  believes  that its operations are in material compliance with all state
and  federal  regulations  and  licensing  requirements.

Bio  Balance

     Bio  Balance  intends  to  comply  with  applicable  requirements  for  the
introduction  of  its first product, PROBACTRIX(TM), to the United States market
as a medical food.  Medical foods are not subject to the FDA regulatory criteria
and  market  clearance  standards applicable to "drugs".  Instead, medical foods
are  food  ingredients.  As  such,  medical  foods  may  be marketed following a
self-determination  that  the  product is "generally recognized as safe" (GRAS).
Bio  Balance  commenced the GRAS determination process in the spring of 2002 and
presently  expects  completion  of  that  process  by  late  2002 or early 2003.
Following  completion  of  GRAS  determination,  and  assuming  GRAS  status  is
determined,  Bio  Balance  intends  to  conduct  at least two clinical trials to
obtain  statistically  significant  data  to  support  marketing  efforts before
commencing  marketing  of  PROBACTRIX(TM)  in  the  United  States.


                                       21
<PAGE>
     Bio  Balance  also  plans  on  introducing  a  version  of its product as a
pharmaceutical  drug and thereafter market the product in the United States. FDA
approval  of the product as a pharmaceutical drug is a time consuming and costly
process.  Bio  Balance has not as yet commenced the FDA approval process and has
no  current  time  table  to  begin  that  process.

Competition

     The  home  health  care  market  is  highly  fragmented  and  significant
competitors  are  often  localized  in  particular  geographical  markets.  The
Company's  largest  competitors include Gentiva Health Services, Premiere Health
Services, National Home Health Care, Patient Care, Inc., and Personal Touch Home
Care  Services, Inc. The home health care business is marked by low entry costs.
The  Company  believes  that,  given  the increasing level of demand for nursing
services,  significant  additional competition can be expected to develop in the
future.  Some of the companies with which the Company presently competes in home
health  care  have  substantially greater financial and human resources than the
Company.  The  Company  also  competes  with  many other small temporary medical
staffing  agencies.

     The  home  infusion  therapy  market  is highly competitive and the Company
expects  that the competition will intensify. As the Company seeks to expand its
provision  of  infusion therapy services, it will compete with a large number of
companies and programs in the areas in which its facilities are located. Many of
these  are local operations servicing a single area; however, there are a number
of  large  national  and  regional companies, including Gentiva Health Services,
Coram  Health  Care  Corp.,  and  Tender Loving Care, Inc.  In addition, certain
hospitals,  clinics  and  physicians,  who  traditionally may have been referral
sources  for  the  Company,  have  entered  or  may  enter the market with local
programs.

     The Company believes that the principal competitive factors in its industry
are  quality  of  care,  including  responsiveness  of  services  and quality of
professional  personnel;  breadth  of  therapies  and  nursing services offered;
successful  referrals  from  referring Government agencies, hospitals and health
maintenance  organizations;  general  reputation with physicians, other referral
sources  and  potential  patients;  and  price.  The  Company  believes that its
competitive  strengths  have  been  the quality, responsiveness, flexibility and
breadth  of  services and staff it offers, and to some extent price competition,
as  well  as  its  reputation  with  physicians,  referral sources and patients.

     The  United  States  health  care  industry  generally  faces a shortage of
qualified  personnel.  Accordingly,  the Company experiences intense competition
from  other companies in recruiting qualified health care personnel for its home
health  care  operations.  The  Company's  success  to  date  has depended, to a
significant  degree,  on its ability to recruit and retain qualified health care
personnel.  Most  of  the  registered  and  licensed  nurses  and  health  care
paraprofessionals  who are employed by the Company are also registered with, and
may accept placements from time to time through, competitors of the Company. The
Company  believes  it  is  able  to  compete  successfully  for  nursing  and
paraprofessional  personnel  by  aggressive  recruitment  through  newspaper
advertisements,  work  fairs/job  fairs, flexible work schedules and competitive
compensation  arrangements. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company
will  be  able  to  continue  to  attract  and  retain  qualified personnel. The
inability  to  either  attract  or  retain such qualified personnel would have a
material  adverse  effect  on  the  Company's  business.


                                       22

Employees

     On  January  1,  2002,  the  Company  had  1,821  employees, of whom 90 are
salaried,  including 3 executive officers, 17 administrators/branch managers, 12
nurses,  11  accounting staff, 13 clerical staff and 34 field staff supervisors.
The  remaining  1,731  employees  are  paid  on  an  hourly basis and consist of
professional and paraprofessional employees. None of the Company's employees are
compensated on an independent contractor basis.  None of the Company's employees
are  represented  by  a  labor  union.  The  Company  believes that its employee
relations  are  good.

Common  Stock

     The Company is authorized to issue up to 50,000,000 shares of Common Stock,
$.01  par  value each.  The holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote for
each  share  held of record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders. There
is  no  cumulative  voting  with  respect  to the election of directors with the
result that the holders of more than 50% of the shares of Common Stock can elect
all  of  the  directors.  The  holders  of  Common Stock are entitled to receive
dividends  when,  and if declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally
available  therefore. In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up
of the Company, the holders of Common Stock are entitled to share ratably in all
assets remaining available for distribution to them after payment of liabilities
and  after  provision  has  been  made  for  each class of stock, if any, having
preference  over  the Common Stock, as such, having no conversion, preemptive or
other  subscription rights, and there are no redemption provisions applicable to
the  Common  Stock.  The  Company  currently has outstanding 3,696,730 shares of
Common  Stock.


Preferred  Stock

     The  Board  of  Directors  of  the  Company  is  authorized  to issue up to
2,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the rights,
preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof, including the dividend rights,
dividend  rate, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption (including
sinking  fund  provisions), redemption price or prices, liquidations preferences
and  the  number  of  shares constituting any series or the designations of such
series,  without  any  further  vote  or action by the stockholders. It would be
possible for the Board of Directors to issue shares of such preferred stock in a
manner  which  would  make  acquisition of control of the Company, other than as
approved  by  the  Board,  exceedingly  difficult.

Preferred Stock, each share of which is convertible into one share of its common
stock.

ITEM 6.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Results of Operations:
----------------------

          Fiscal year ended December 31, 2001 compared
          with fiscal year ended December 31, 2000.


     Revenues  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2001  increased  17%  to
approximately  $34,321,000  from  approximately  $29,384,000  for the year ended
December  31,  2000.  Most of the increase is attributable to increased hours of
service  provided  under  the  new  HRA  contract  with  the  City  of New York.


                                       26
<PAGE>
     Cost  of professional care of patients for the year ended December 31, 2001
increased  to  18%  approximately $25,711,000 from approximately $21,698,000 for
the  year  ended December 31, 2000. The increase resulted from hiring additional
home  health  care  personnel  to  service  the  increased  business  of the HRA
contract.  The cost of professional care of patients as a percentage of revenues
increased  1.1% to approximately 74.9% for the year ended December 31, 2001 from
approximately  73.8%  for  prior  year ended December 31, 2000. The increase was
primarily  caused  by the HRA contract, which provides a lower gross profit than
the  other  contracts.

     Selling,  general  and  administrative expenses for the year ended December
31, 2001 increased to approximately $7,198,000 from approximately $6,478,000 for
the  year ended December 31, 2000. The increase resulted primarily from the cost
associated  with  the  increased  revenue.  Selling,  general and administrative
expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased to 21% for the year ended December
31,  2001  from  22%  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2000.

     Interest  expense  for  the  year ended December 31, 2001 was approximately
$130,000  as  compared to approximately $322,000 for the year ended December 31,
2000.  The  decrease  resulted from reduced borrowing against our line of credit
made  possible  by  improved  collection  efforts  which  lowered  our  DSO.

     The  provision  for federal, state and local taxes of $150,000 for the year
ended  December  31,  2001 is a result of income for this period compared to the
benefit for taxes of $35,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000, which was due
to  a  loss.

     In  view  of  the  foregoing,  the  Company  recognized  a  net  profit  of
approximately $353,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001 as compared to a net
loss of approximately $1,195,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000. While the
income for the year ended December 31, 2001 was a result of increased sales, the
loss  for  the year ended December 31, 2000 was attributable to the write-off of
$1,487,000  for  the  impairment  of  intangible assets. If not for the one time
write-off in the year 2000 of approximately $1,487,000 of intangible assets, the
Company would have had a net profit of approximately $292,000 for the year ended
December  31,  2000.

     The  impairment  of  intangible assets was due to a decrease in revenue and
projected  reductions  in revenue from the operations of certain offices located
in  New Jersey. The Company evaluated the ongoing value of its intangible assets
associated with those acquisitions (which were made by the Company from December
1997  through  February  1999) and based on those evaluations, at June 30, 2000,
the  Company  has  determined  that  intangible assets with a carrying amount of
$1,688,000  were impaired. Accordingly, such amount was reduced by $1,487,000 to
their  estimated  fair  value  by  charge  to operations. The goodwill write-off
represented  a per-share net loss of $.41 both on a basic and diluted. Estimated
fair  value  was based on the value associated with current purchases of similar
companies  in  the  home  health  care industry. There was no write-down for the
impairment  of intangible assets necessary for the year ended December 31, 2001.


Fiscal  year  ended  December  31,  2000  compared
with  fiscal  year  ended  December  31,  1999.

     Revenues  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2000  increased  23.6%  to
approximately  $29,384,000  from  approximately  $23,772,000  for the year ended
December  31,  1999.  Most of the increase is attributable to increased hours of
service  provided  under  the  new  HRA  contract  with  the  City  of New York.

     Cost  of professional care of patients for the year ended December 31, 2000
increased  to  approximately  $21,698,000 from approximately $17,165,000 for the
year ended December 31, 1999.  The increase resulted from hiring additional home
health care personnel to service the increased business in New York. The cost of
professional  care  of  patients  as  a percentage of revenues increased 1.6% to
approximately  73.8%  for  the  year  ended December 31, 2000 from approximately
72.2% for prior year ended December 31, 1999.  The increase was primarily caused
by  the  lower  gross  margin  on  the  HRA  contract.

     Selling,  general  and  administrative expenses for the year ended December
31, 2000 increased to approximately $6,478,000 from approximately $6,188,000 for
the year ended December 31, 1999.  The increase resulted primarily from the cost
associated  with  the  increased  revenue.  Selling,  general and administrative
expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased to 22% for the year ended December
31,  2000  from  26%  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  1999.

     Interest  expense  for  the  year ended December 31, 2000 was approximately
$322,000  as  compared to approximately $323,000 for the year ended December 31,
1999.

     The  benefit for federal, state and local taxes for the year ended December
31,  2000  of  $35,000 is the result of the loss for the year as compared to the
benefit  for  taxes  of  $180,000  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  1999.

     Due  to  a decrease in revenue and projected reductions in revenue from the
operations  of  certain offices located in New Jersey, the Company evaluated the
ongoing  value of its intangible assets associated with those acquisitions which
were made by the Company from December 1997 through February 1999. Based on this
evaluation,  the  Company  determined that intangible the assets with a carrying
amount  of  $1,688,134  were  impaired.  Accordingly,  the  Company  reduced the
estimated  fair  value  of  those intangible assets by $1,487,192 as a charge to
operations.  Estimated fair value was based on the value associated with current
purchases  of  similar  companies  in  the  home  health  care  industry.


                                       27
<PAGE>
     In  view  of  the foregoing, the Company recognized a net loss for the year
ended  December  31, 2000 amounting to approximately $1,195,000 as compared to a
net  loss of approximately $236,000 for the year ended December 31, 1999. If not
for  the  one  time write-off of intangible assets the Company would have had an
approximate  pretax  income  of $223,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000 as
compared to a net loss of approximately $236,000 for the year ended December 31,
1999.


Liquidity  and  Capital  Resources

     The  Company's  liquidity  and  capital  resources  are  generated  through
internally generated funds, cash on hand and amounts available under its line of
credit. The Company has recently established a new line of credit with a lending
institution  for  $4,000,000  that  expires  November  28,  2002.

     For  the  year ended December 31, 2001, net cash provided by operations was
$2,976,000  as  compared to net cash provided by operations of $1,194,000 during
the  year  ended  December  31,  2000, an increase of $1,782,000. The $2,976,000
provided  by operations for the year ended December 31, 2001 was principally due
to  the  decrease  in  accounts  receivable  and  unbilled services, increase in
accrued  payroll,  increase  in  other payables and a net income for the period.

     Net  cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2001
was approximately  $20,000 for the acquisition of fixed assets. Net cash used by
financing  activities for the year ended December 31, 2001 totaled approximately
$1,948,000, resulting from repayment of the credit line of $1,759,000, repayment
of  notes  payable  $125,000 off set by an decrease in bank overdraft of $85,000
and exercise  of  stock  options  of  $21,000.

     As  of  December  31, 2001, approximately $5,503,000 (approximately 65%) of
the Company's total assets consisted of accounts receivable from clients who are
reimbursed  by third-party payers, as compared to $6,621,000 (approximately 76%)
as of December 31, 2000, a decrease of 11%. The decrease is the direct result of
a  more  aggressive collection effort and an increase in Medicaid business which
has  more  favorable  payment  terms.

     Days  Sales  Outstanding ("DSO") is a measure of the average number of days
taken  by  the  Company  to collect its accounts receivable, calculated from the
date services are billed. For the year ended December 31, 2001 the Company's DSO
was  61  compared to 84 for the year ended December 31, 2000. The improvement of
23 days in DSO is the net effect of combining the New Jersey DSO of 30 days with
the  Home  Attendant  program DSO of 38 days and New York's DSO of 103 days.

     The  Company is actively pursuing potential acquisitions. Further expansion
of  the  Company's  business may require the Company to incur additional debt or
offer  additional equity if internally generated funds, cash on hand and amounts
available  under  its  bank credit facilities are inadequate to meet such needs.
There  can be no assurance that such additional debt or equity will be available
to  the  Company,  or, if available, will be on terms acceptable to the Company.

Potential  Regulatory  Changes

     There  has  been recent news reports concerning federal budget negotiations
regarding potential changes in the way the Government will reimburse home health
care companies in the future, including the possibility of capitation. While the
Company  is  not  currently  a  Medicare-Certified Home Health Agency subject to
these  changes,  most  of  the  Company's  referral  sources are and they may be
negatively impacted by this legislation which was adopted to control home health
care  costs.  While  it  is  still premature to discern what impact, if any, the
potential  changes  may  have  on  the  Company's  operations,  there  can be no
assurance that future legislation will not result in reduced reimbursement rates
from  referral  sources.

                          ----------------------------



To the Board of Directors
New York Health Care, Inc.

We  have  audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of New York Health
Care,  Inc.  and Subsidiary (the "Corporation") as of December 31, 2001, and the
related  consolidated  statements  of  operations, shareholders' equity and cash
flows  for  the  years  ended  December  31,  2000  and  2001.  These  financial
statements  are  the  responsibility  of  the  Corporation's  management.  Our
responsibility  is  to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our  audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in  the  United  States  of  America.  Those  standards require that we plan and
perform  the  audit  to  obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a
test  basis,  evidence  supporting  the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant  estimates  made  by  management,  as well as evaluating the overall
financial  statement  presentation.  We  believe  that  our  audits  provide  a
reasonable  basis  for  our  opinion.

In  our  opinion,  the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all  material respects, the financial position of New York Health Care, Inc. and
Subsidiary  as  of  December 31, 2001, and the results of its operations and its
cash  flows  for  the  years ended December 31, 2000 and 2001 in conformity with
accounting  principles  generally  accepted  in  the  United  States of America.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.   SUMMARY  OF  SIGNIFICANT  ACCOUNTING  POLICIES:

     BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION AND THE COMPANY:

     The  accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
     New  York  Health Care, Inc. ("NYHC") and its wholly owned subsidiary which
     was  formed on August 20, 1997, NYHC Newco Paxxon, Inc. D/B/A Helping Hands
     Healthcare  ("Helping  Hands"),  (the  "Corporation").  All  material
     intercompany  transactions  and  accounts  have  been  eliminated  in
     consolidation.

     The  Corporation  provides  services  of  registered  nurses  and
     paraprofessionals  to  patients  throughout  New  York  and  New  Jersey.

     In  February 2001, the Corporation amended its certificate of incorporation
     to provide for an increase in the Corporation's number of authorized common
     stock  from  12,500,000  shares  to  a  total  of  50,000,000  shares.

     ESTIMATES:

     The  preparation  of  financial  statements  in  conformity  with generally
     accepted  accounting  principles  requires management to make estimates and
     assumptions  that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
     disclosure  of  contingent  assets  and  liabilities  at  the  date  of the
     financial  statements  and  the  reported  amounts of revenues and expenses
     during  the  reporting  period.  Actual  results  could  differ  from those
     estimates.

     REVENUE  RECOGNITION:

     The Corporation recognizes net patient service revenue on the date services
     are  rendered.  Unbilled  services  represent  amounts  due  for  services
     rendered,  which  were  not  billed  at  the  end  of  each  period.

     PROPERTY,  PLANT  AND  EQUIPMENT:

     Property,  plant  and equipment is carried at cost and is being depreciated
     under the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives of
     the  assets  or  the  life  of  the  lease,  whichever  is  shorter.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



     LONG-LIVED  ASSETS:

     The  Corporation's  policy  is  to evaluate long-lived assets, goodwill and
     certain identifiable intangibles for possible impairment whenever events or
     changes  in  circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets
     may  not  be  recoverable. This evaluation is based on a number of factors,
     including  expectations  for  operating  income and undiscounted cash flows
     that  will  result  from  the  use  of  such  assets.

     INCOME  TAXES:

     The  Corporation  uses the asset and liability method to calculate deferred
     tax  assets  and  liabilities.  Deferred  taxes are recognized based on the
     differences  between financial reporting and income tax bases of assets and
     liabilities  using  enacted  income  tax  rates.  Deferred  tax  assets and
     liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the years in
     which  those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
     The  effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates
     is  recognized  in  income  in the period that includes the enactment date.

     CASH  EQUIVALENTS:

     For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Corporation considers all
     highly  liquid  investments  with  maturities  of three months or less when
     purchased  to  be  cash  equivalents.

     STOCK  BASED  COMPENSATION:

     The  Corporation applies SFAS 123 "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation"
     in  accounting  for its stock based compensation plan and other stock based
     compensation  arrangements.  As  permitted  by  SFAS  123,  the Corporation
     applies  Accounting  Principles  Board  Opinion  No.  25  and  related
     interpretations  for  expense  recognition.

     EARNINGS  (LOSS)  PER  SHARE:

     Basic  earnings  (loss)  per  share  excludes  dilution  and is computed by
     dividing  income  available  to common shareholders by the weighted average
     number  of  common  shares  outstanding  for  the  period.


                                       F-7
<PAGE>
                    NEW YORK HEALTH CARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


     Diluted  earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing income available
     to  common  shareholders  by  the  weighted average number of common shares
     outstanding  for  the  period,  adjusted  to  reflect  potentially dilutive
     securities  including  the  presumed conversion of the Preferred Stock from
     the  date of its issuance. During the year ended December 31, 2001, options
     and warrants were included in the computation of diluted earnings per share
     because  the  exercise  price was less than the average market price of the
     Corporation's  common stock during that period. Common shares issuable as a
     result  of the assumed conversion of the Corporation's Preferred Stock were
     also  included  in  the computation of diluted earnings per share. Due to a
     loss  in  2000,  the options, warrants, and Convertible Preferred Stock are
     not  included  in  the  computation  of  diluted loss per share because the
     effect  would  be  to  reduce  the  loss  per  share.

     OTHER  ACCOUNTING  PRONOUNCEMENTS:

     In  July  2001,  the  Financial  Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
     Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  (SFAS)  No. 141, "Business
     Combinations"  and  No.  142,  "Goodwill  and Other Intangible Assets." The
     statements  eliminate  the  pooling-of-interest  method  of  accounting for
     business  combinations  and  require  that  goodwill and certain intangible
     assets  not  be  amortized.  Instead,  these  assets  will  be reviewed for
     impairment  annually  with  any  related losses recognized in earnings when
     incurred. SFAS 141 is effective for the Company July 1, 2001. SFAS 142 will
     be effective for the Company January 1, 2002. In July 2001, the FASB issued
     SFAS  No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations" which requires
     the  recognition  of  a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the
     period  in  which it is incurred. When the liability is initially recorded,
     the  carrying  amount  of  the  related long-lived asset is correspondingly
     increased.  Over  time,  the liability is accreted to its present value and
     the  related  capitalized charge is depreciated over the useful life of the
     asset.  SFAS  143  is  effective  for fiscal years beginning after June 15,
     2002.  In  August  2001,  the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
     Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived
     Assets"  which is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15,
     2001 and interim periods within those fiscal years. SFAS 144 establishes an
     accounting  model for impairment or disposal of long-lived assets including
     discontinued  operations. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of
     SFAS  141,  142,  143  and  144.

2.   PROPERTY  AND  EQUIPMENT:

     Property  and  equipment  consist  of  the  following at December 31, 2001:

</TABLE>

     At  December  31,  2001,  the  amounts  shown  above  include  assets  of
     approximately  $79,550  under  capitalized  leases  and  accumulated
     depreciation  of  approximately  $47,750,  relating  thereto.

3.   IMPAIRMENT  OF  INTANGIBLE  ASSETS:

     Due  to  a  decrease  in  revenue  during  2000  and  prior,  and projected
     additional  reductions  in  revenue  from the operations of certain offices
     located  in  New  Jersey,  at  June  30, 2000 the Corporation evaluated the
     ongoing  value of its intangible assets associated with those acquisitions,
     which  were  made by the Corporation from December 1997 through 2000. Based
     on  this evaluation, the Corporation determined that intangible assets with
     a carrying amount of $1,688,134 were impaired. Accordingly, such amount was
     reduced  by  $1,487,192  to  their  estimated  fair  value  by  a charge to
     operations.  For  the  year  ended December 31, 2000, the impairment charge
     represented a per-share net loss of $.41 both on a basic and diluted basis.
     Estimated fair value was determined based on the management's evaluation of
     current  purchases  of  similar companies in the home health care industry.
     The Corporation has determined that no additional write-down for impairment
     of  intangible  assets  is  necessary  at  December  31,  2001.

         Intangibles                                            110,000
                                                               --------

                                                               $117,000
                                                               ========
</TABLE>

     The  temporary  differences  that  give  rise  to  deferred  tax assets are
     impairment  of  intangible  assets for book purposes over tax purposes, the
     direct  write-off  method  for  receivables,  using  accelerated methods of
     amortization  and  depreciation  for  property  and  equipment,  and  using
     statutory lives for intangibles for tax purposes. At December 31, 2001, the
     Corporation has computed a deferred tax asset in the amount of $547,000 and
     has  provided  a valuation allowance of $314,000 (all related to impairment
     of  intangible  assets)  on  the  deferred tax asset due to the uncertainty
     regarding  the  realization  of  the  future tax benefits. Upon a return to
     profitability  during  the  year  ended  December  31,  2001, the valuation
     allowance  was  decreased  by  $70,000  to  reflect  a  reduction  in  the
     uncertainty regarding realization. Such amount was reflected as a reduction
     of  the  provision  for  deferred  taxes  2001.

8.   FAIR  VALUE  OF  FINANCIAL  INSTRUMENTS:

     As  of  December  31,  2001,  the  carrying  amount of accounts receivable,
     unbilled  services,  accounts  payable  and  accrued  expenses  and accrued
     payroll  approximates  fair value due to the short-term maturities of these
     instruments.

9.   THIRD-PARTY  RATE  ADJUSTMENTS  AND  REVENUE  AND  CERTAIN
     CONTRACTS:

     Approximately  7% of net patient service revenue was derived under New York
     State  third-party  reimbursement  programs  during each of the years ended
     December  31,  2000  and  2001.  These revenues are based, in part, on cost
     reimbursement  principles  and  are  subject  to  audit  and  retroactive
     adjustment by the respective third-party fiscal intermediaries. Differences
     between  current  rates  and  subsequent revisions will be reflected in the
     statement  of  operations  in  the  year  revisions  are  calculated.

     The  Corporation  has an agreement with the City of New York acting through
     the  Department  of  Social  Services of The Human Resources Administration
     ("HRA")  to provide personal care services to certain qualified individuals
     as determined by HRA. Per the agreement with HRA, if the Corporation incurs
     direct  costs of home attendant services below the maximum allowable amount
     per the contract, the Corporation must repay the difference to HRA, subject
     to final audit by the City of New York. As of December 31, 2001, the amount
     due  to  HRA  amounted  to  $268,859.

10.  PERFORMANCE  INCENTIVE  PLAN,  OPTIONS AND 401(K) PLAN:

     PERFORMANCE  INCENTIVE  PLAN:

     On  March  26,  1996,  the  Corporation's  Board  of  Directors adopted the
     Performance  Incentive  Plan,  (the  "Option Plan"). Under the terms of the
     amended  Option  Plan,  1,482,500  shares of common stock may be granted at
     December 31, 2001. The Option Plan will be administered by the Compensation
     Committee which was appointed by the Board of Directors. The Committee will
     determine which key employee, officer or director on the regular payroll of
     the  Company,  shall receive stock options. Granted options are exercisable
     commencing  six  months after the date of grant, and expire up to ten years
     after  the  date of grant. The exercise price of any incentive stock option
     or  nonqualified  option granted under the Option Plan may not be less than
     100%  of the fair market value of the shares of common stock of the Company
     at  the  time  of  the  grant.

     On  July  10, 2000, the Corporation granted 400,000 stock options, pursuant
     to the Option Plan to key employees at exercise prices ranging from $.50 to
     $.55  per  share.  The  options expire in 5-10 years. The exercise price of
     these  options  was not less than the fair market price of the Common Stock
     as  of  the  date  of  grant.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


     On January 2, 2001, the Corporation granted 430,000 stock options, pursuant
     to the Option Plan, to key employees at an exercise price ranging from $.59
     to  $.65 per share. The options expire in 5-10 years. The exercise price of
     these  options  was not less than the fair market price of the Common Stock
     as  of  the  date  of  grant.

     On  March  26,  1996,  the  Corporation issued an option to purchase 93,750
     shares  of  Common Stock to the President of the Corporation at an exercise
     price  of  $3.00 per share. The option may be exercised at any time through
     March  26,  2006. These options were not issued under the Option Plan. None
     of  these  options  have  been  exercised  or  cancelled.

     During the year ended December 31, 2001, employees exercised 28,000 options
     at  exercise  prices  ranging  from  $.59  to  $1.63  per  share.

     Activity  in  stock  options,  and  warrants  including  those  outside the
     Performance  Incentive  Plan,  is  summarized  as  follows:

</TABLE>

     The  Corporation  does not recognize compensation expense for stock options
     granted  at  or  above  fair  market  value, as permitted by the accounting
     standards.  The  fair  value  of  options  granted during 2000 and 2001 was
     $213,400  and  $269,000, respectively. Fair value is estimated based on the
     Black-Scholes  option-pricing  model  with  the  following  assumptions for
     grants  in  2000  and 2001: expected volatility of 161% and 153%; risk-free
     interest  rates  of  5.85%  in 2000 and 2.43% in 2001 and expected lives of
     approximately 7.5 years for the years ended 2000 and 2001. Had compensation
     expense been determined based on the fair value of the options on the grant
     dates,  the  Corporation's  net  loss would have been increased by $213,400
     ($.06  basic  and  diluted loss per share) in 2000 and its net income would
     have  been  decreased  by  $269,000  ($.07  basic earnings and $.05 diluted
     earnings  per  share)  in  2001.

     401  (K)  PLAN:

     NYHC  maintains  an  Internal  Revenue  Code Section 401(k) salary deferred
     savings plan (the "Plan") for eligible employees who have been employed for
     at  least  one  year  and  are  at  least  21 years old. Subject to certain
     limitations,  the  Plan allows participants to voluntarily contribute up to
     15%  of  their pay on a pretax basis. The Corporation currently contributes
     50%  of each dollar contributed to the Plan by participants up to a maximum
     of  6%  of  the  participants  salary.  The  Plan also provides for certain
     discretionary  contributions  by the Corporation as determined by the Board
     of Directors. The Corporation's contributions offset by unvested forfeiture
     matching funds amounted to $56,000 and $22,000 for the years ended December
     31,  2000  and  2001,  respectively.

11.  COMMITMENTS,  CONTINGENCIES  AND  OTHER  COMMENTS:

     LEASE  COMMITMENTS:

     The  Corporation  leases office space under noncancellable operating leases
     in New York and New Jersey that expire between April 2002 and October 2006.

             Total minimum future payments     $ 843,000
                                               =========

     Rental  expense  charged  to  operations  was  approximately  $356,000  and
     $370,000  for  the  years  ended  December 31, 2000 and 2001, respectively.

     EMPLOYMENT  AGREEMENTS:

     On  November  10,  1999, the Corporation entered into employment agreements
     with two officers, with terms beginning December 27, 1999 expiring in 2004.
     The  agreements  call  for  an  initial  aggregate  annual  compensation of
     approximately  $420,000  with  an  annual  increase  of 10% and provide for
     certain  additional  benefits.  On  February  1,  2001,  the  Compensation
     Committee  approved  a bonus of $100,000 to be paid to the two officers for
     the  year  ended  December  31,  2000;  such  amount has been accrued as of
     December 31, 2000. On January 16, 2002, the Compensation Committee approved
     a  bonus  of  $250,000  to  be paid to the two officers, for the year ended
     December  31,  2001;  such amount has been accrued as of December 31, 2001.

     BONUS  PLAN:

     The  Corporation  has established a bonus plan pursuant to which 10% of the
     Corporation's  pre-tax  net  income is contributed to a bonus pool which is
     available  for  distribution  to  all  employees  as  decided  upon  by the
     Corporation's  Compensation  Committee. There was no bonus accrual for 2000
     due  to  a net loss for the year. A bonus of $56,000 has been accrued as of
     December  31,  2001.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



     CONCENTRATIONS  OF  CREDIT  RISK:

     Financial  instruments  which  potentially  subject  the  Corporation  to
     concentrations  of  credit risk consist of temporary cash investments which
     from  time-to-time  exceed  the  Federal  depository insurance coverage and
     commercial  accounts  receivable.  The  Corporation  has  cash  investment
     policies  that  restrict  placement  of  these  investments  to  financial
     institutions  evaluated  as  highly creditworthy. Cash and cash equivalents
     exceeding  federally insured limits approximated $1,251,000 at December 31,
     2001.  The  Corporation  does not require collateral on commercial accounts
     receivable  as  the  customer  base  generally  consists  of  large,
     well-established  institutions.

     MAJOR  CUSTOMERS:

     Two  major customers accounted for approximately 53% and 60% of net patient
     service  revenue  for  the  years  ended  December  31,  2000  and  2001,
     respectively.  In  addition,  the  Corporation  has  three  customers whose
     accounts  receivable  balance  represent  approximately  52%  of  accounts
     receivable  at  December  31,  2001.

     BUSINESS  RISKS:

     Certain  factors relating to the industry in which the Corporation operates
     and  the  Corporation's  business  should  be  carefully  considered.  The
     Company's  primary business, offering home health care services, is heavily
     regulated  at  both  the federal and state levels. While the Corporation is
     unable  to  predict  what regulatory changes may occur or the impact on the
     Corporation  of  any  particular  change,  the Corporation's operations and
     financial  results  could  be  negatively  affected.

     Further,  the  Corporation  operates in a highly competitive industry which
     may  limit  the  Corporation's ability to price its services at levels that

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



     The  Agreement  provides for Bio Balance's shareholders exchanging at least
     90%  of their shares and 100% of their options for common stock and options

     expected to have approximately 22,350,000 shares of common stock issued and
     outstanding and the Corporation is expected to have approximately 4,000,000
     issued  and outstanding shares of common stock, options and warrants (after
     a  1  for  1.5  share  reverse  split).  After  the  proposed  closing, the
     shareholders  of  Bio  Balance are expected to own approximately 90% of the
     common  stock  of  the  Corporation.

     The  Agreement is subject to the approval of the Corporation's shareholders
     at  a  meeting, and to compliance with various federal and state regulatory
     requirements,  as  more  fully  described  in  the Corporation's Form 8-K/A

EMPLOYMENT  AGREEMENTS

     On  November  10,  1999, the Company entered into new employment agreements
with  Jerry  Braun  and  Jacob  Rosenberg, each of which is for a term beginning
December  27,  1999  and  ending  December  26,  2004.

     Mr.  Braun's  agreement  provides that he will serve as President and Chief
Executive  Officer  in  consideration of (i) initial annual base compensation of
$232,925;  (ii)  reimbursement  of  authorized  business  expenses  incurred  in


                                       31
<PAGE>
connection  with  the  conduct of the Company's business; (iii) participation in
the  Company's  Bonus  Plan,  401  (k)  Plan and Option Plan; (iv) an automobile
reimbursement  allowance  of  $750 per month toward automobile leasing costs and
payment  of  reimbursement of automobile insurance and maintenance costs; (v) an
allowance  of $5,000 per year towards the cost of life and disability insurance;
(vi)  four  weeks  paid  vacation  and eighteen sick or personal leave days; and
(vii)  an  annual  increase  in  salary  of  10%  for  each  year.

     Mr.  Rosenberg's agreement has the same general terms and conditions as Mr.
Braun's,  except  that  he  will  serve  as  Vice President, Secretary and Chief
Operating  Officer,  and  the  annual  base  compensation  is  $186,340.

     These  new executive employment agreements also provide additional benefits
in  the  event there is a "change of control" of the Company, which is generally
defined as a merger or consolidation of the Company with another corporation, or
the sale of all or substantially all of its assets, or the acquisition of either
a  majority  of the Company's assets or its voting equity stock, or the power to
designate  a  majority of the Company's Board of Directors by persons other than
the  present  shareholders  of  the  Company.  In the event of such a "change of
control,"  the  executives'  unexercised  stock  options will become immediately
vested  and exercisable in full, they will each receive a lump-sum payment equal
to 2.99 times the average of their annual base salary and bonus for the previous
five  years  and  the  Company will pay the cost to either maintain the lease or
transfer  the  ownership  of  the  automobile for which the Company has paid the
leasing  costs  for  the  executive.  The  Company  has also agreed that, to the
extent  any  payments  received  by  an  executive from the Company subjects the
executive  to  an excise tax under Section 499 of the Internal Revenue Code, the
Company  will  make an additional payment to the executive so that net after-tax
compensation  is  not  reduced  by  the  excise  tax.  All  "change  of control"
compensation  is  limited, to the extent it may qualify as a "parachute payment"
under  Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, to the maximum amount that may
be  paid to that executive without any part of that compensation being deemed to
be an "excess parachute payment." That maximum amount is generally determined by
multiplying  the average of the executive's annual base salary and bonus for the
previous  five  years  by  a  factor  of  three.

     Mr.  Braun  and Mr. Rosenberg also participate, together with all employees
of  the  Company,  in a bonus plan pursuant to which 10% of the Company's annual
pre-tax net income is contributed to the bonus pool which is distributed to such
persons  and  in  such  amounts  as  decided  upon by the Company's Compensation
Committee.

REPORT  OF  THE  COMPENSATION  COMMITTEE  ON  EXECUTIVE  COMPENSATION  COMMITTEE
POLICIES

     The  New  York Health Care compensation committee is composed of Charles J.
Pendola  and  H.  Gene  Berger, two non-employee directors, and Jerry Braun, the
Chief  Executive  Officer  (Mr.  Braun  does not vote on matters which relate to
compensation or benefits which he may receive). The committee is responsible for
reviewing  and  approving the compensation of executives of the company and such
other  employees as assigned by the board, and the awarding of stock options and
recommendation  of  executive  compensation  policies. The objectives of the New
York  Health  Care  compensation  program  are to encourage the execution of the
company's  performance  objectives  and to provide a level of compensation which
will  attract  and  retain  talented  executives  and appropriately reward their
performance.

     The  compensation  provided  by  New  York  Health  Care  is believed to be
competitive  with  other companies in the health care service industry generally
and  with  those  in  the  New  York  area,  as  well as with a broader group of
companies  of  comparable  size  and  complexity.

EXECUTIVE  OFFICER  COMPENSATION

     New  York  Health  Care executive officer compensation is comprised of base
salary,  regularly  scheduled  raises,  annual  cash  incentive  compensation,
long-term  incentive  compensation in the form of stock options, 401(k) Plan and
related  benefits,  including an allowance for use in leasing an automobile, and
allowance  towards life and disability insurance coverage, and medical insurance
generally  available  to  all  employees  of  the company. Senior executives are
employed  pursuant  to  written  employment agreements, which were most recently
entered  into  in  November  1999,  at  which  time change of control (parachute
payment)  compensation provisions were added for the Chief Executive Officer and
Chief  Operating  Officer.  See  "Executive  Compensation."

STOCK  OPTION  PROGRAM

     The stock option program is the New York Health Care Incentive Stock Option
Plan, which is intended to provide an incentive to key employees and align their
interests  with  those  of the stockholders. Directors who are not employees are
awarded  stock  purchase  warrants  with terms and exercise prices comparable to
those  which  would  be  provided  by  stock  options  awarded at the same time.

OTHER  PROGRAMS

     From  time to time the compensation committee may consider awarding special
bonus  Payments  to  executives  or  other  employees  of  New York Health Care.

REMUNERATION  OF  DIRECTORS

     The  non-employee directors are paid a monthly fee of $1,000, together with
$1,000  for  their  attendance  at  meetings  of  the  board  and $500 for their
attendance  at  committee  meetings.

                                     Members of the Compensation Committee:
                                     Charles  J.  Pendola
                                     H.  Gene  Berger
                                     Jerry  Braun

Savings  and  Stock  Option  Plans

401(k)  Plan
     The  Company  maintains  an  Internal  Revenue  Code  Section 401(k) salary
deferral  savings  plan  (the "Plan") for all of its eligible New York employees
who  have  been  employed  for  at  least one year and are at least 21 years old
(effective  July  1,  1996, field staff employees at the Company's Orange County
branch  office in Newburgh, New York ceased being eligible to participate in the
Plan).  Subject  to  certain  limitations,  the  Plan  allows  participants  to
voluntarily  contribute  up  to  15% of their pay on a pre-tax basis.  Under the
Plan,  the  Company  may  make  matching  contributions on behalf of the pre-tax
contributions  made  by  participants.

Stock  Option  Plan

     In  March  1996, the Company's Board of Directors and stockholders approved
and  adopted  the  New  York  Health  Care, Inc. Performance Incentive Plan (the
"Option  Plan") providing for options to purchase up to 262,500 shares of Common
Stock  for  to  key  employees  of  the  Company.

     On  June  25, 1998, the Company's shareholders ratified an amendment to the
Option  Plan  authorizing  the  reservation  of  an additional 210,000 shares of
Common  Stock  for  issuance  under  that plan for each of two additional years,
resulting  in  a  total  of  682,500  shares  in  the  Option  Plan.

     On  July  28, 1999, the Company's shareholders ratified an amendment to the
Option Plan that each stock option granted under the plan, including unexercised
options  outstanding  on the date of the amendment, may be exercisable in either
one,  two  or  three  equal  annual  installments  at  the  discretion  of  the
Compensation Committee. The amendment also provided an additional 350,000 shares
of common stock for issuance under the Option Plan after January 1, 2000 so that
the  total  number  of  shares which may be issued under the plan increased from
682,500  to  1,032,500  shares.

     On  December  18,  2000  the  Company's  shareholders  further  ratified an
amendment  to the Option Plan to provide for an additional 450,000 shares of the
Corporation's  $.01  par  value  common  stock for issuance under the plan after
January 1, 2001 so that the total number of shares which may be issued under the
plan  increased  from  1,032,500  to  1,482,500  shares.

     To  date, options have been granted under the plan for a total of 1,407,500
shares.  The  Option  Plan is administered by a Compensation Committee appointed
by  the  Board  of  Directors  (the  "Committee"),  which is authorized to grant
incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options to selected employees of
the  Company  and  to  determine  the  participants, the number of options to be
granted  and  other  terms  and  provisions  of  each  option.


                                       34
<PAGE>
     The  exercise  price  of  any incentive stock option or nonqualified option
granted under the Option Plan may not be less than 100% of the fair market value
of  the  shares of Common Stock of the Company at the time of the grant.  In the
case  of  incentive  stock  options  granted  to holders of more than 10% of the
voting power of the Company, the exercise price may not be less than 110% of the
fair  market  value.

     Under  the  terms  of  the  Option  Plan,  the  aggregate fair market value
(determined  at  the time of grant) of shares issuable to any one recipient upon
exercise  of  incentive  stock options exercisable for the first time during any
one  calendar  year  may  not exceed $100,000.  Options granted under the Option
Plan  become  exercisable in whole or in part from time to time as determined by
the  Committee,  but  in  no  event  may  a  stock option granted in conjunction
therewith  be exercisable prior to the expiration of six months from the date of
grant, unless the grantee dies or becomes disabled prior thereto.  Stock options
granted  under  the Option Plan have a maximum term of 10 years from the date of
grant,  except  that  with  respect  to  incentive  stock  options granted to an
employee  who,  at  the  time  of the grant, is a holder of more than 10% of the
voting  power  of the Company,  the stock option shall expire not more than five
years  from the date of the grant.  The option price must be paid in full on the
date  of  exercise  and is payable in cash or in shares of Common Stock having a
fair market value on the date the option is exercised equal to the option price.

     If  a  grantee's  employment  by,  or provision of services to, the Company
shall  be terminated,  the Committee may, in its discretion, permit the exercise
of  stock options for a period not to exceed one year following such termination
of  employment  with respect to incentive  stock options and for a period not to
extend beyond the expiration date with respect to non-qualified options,  except
that no incentive stock option may be exercised after three months following the
grantee's  termination  of  employment,  unless it is due to death or  permanent
disability,  in which case they may be exercised  for a period of up to one year
following  such  termination.

ITEM  12.     CERTAIN  RELATIONSHIPS  AND  RELATED  TRANSACTIONS.

     On  July  29,  1999,  the  Registrant's  Board  of  Directors authorized an
increase  in  the  authorized  shares  of  the  Registrant's Class A Convertible
Preferred Stock (the "Class A Preferred") from 480,000 shares to 590,375 shares.
Immediately  following  that  authorization,  New  York  Health  Care entered an
agreement  with  Heart  to  Heart Health Care Services, Inc. ("Heart to Heart"),
which  is  the  holder  of  the Registrant's promissory note (the "Note") in the
current face amount of $550,000 currently bearing interest at the rate of 9% per
annum,  for the conversion of $100,000 of the principal amount of that Note into
110,375  shares  of  the  Registrant's  Class A Convertible Preferred Stock at a
conversion  price  of $.906 per share, each share of which is convertible at any
time  into  shares  of  the  Registrant's $.01 par value common stock.  Heart to
Heart  is  owned  by Jerry Braun, Jacob Rosenberg, Samson Soroka, Hirsch Chitrik
and  Sid  Borenstein.  Messrs.  Braun and Rosenberg are officers or directors of
New York Health Car. Messrs. Chitrik, Borenstein and Soroka are former directors
and  Messrs.  Chitrik  and  Soroka  are  principal  shareholders. The conversion
transaction is on substantially the same terms as a prior transaction with Heart
to  Heart  on  August  6,  1998 in which $600,000 of the Note was converted into
480,000  shares  of  the  Class  A  Preferred.  The  Registrant  had obtained an
independent  opinion  that the consideration received by New York Health Care in
that  transaction  was,  under the circumstances, fair from a financial point of
view  to  the  Registrant,  not  including  the  Heart  to  Heart  shareholders.

     The  transactions  described above involve actual or potential conflicts of

reduce  the potential for conflicts of interest between New York Health Care and
its  officers  and  directors, prior to entering into any transaction in which a
potential  material  conflict  of  interest  might exist, New York Health Care's
policy has been and will continue to be that New York Health Care does not enter
into  transactions with officers, directors or other affiliates unless the terms
of  the  transaction  are at least as favorable to New York Health Care as those
which  would  have  been obtainable from an unaffiliated source. New York Health
Care has no plans to enter into any additional transactions which involve actual
or potential conflicts of interest between New York Health Care and its officers
or directors and will not enter into any such transactions in the future without
first  obtaining  independent  opinion  with  regard to the fairness to New York
Health  Care  of  the  terms  and  conditions  of  any  such  transaction.
