                              SEPARATION AGREEMENT

        THIS SEPARATION AGREEMENT (this "AGREEMENT") is entered into as of the
12th day of June, 2000 between James D. Durham ("MR. DURHAM"), and QUADRAMED
CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the "COMPANY").

        WHEREAS, Mr. Durham was employed by the Company as its Chairman and
Chief Executive Officer pursuant to the terms and conditions of that certain
employment letter agreement dated January 1, 1999 between the Company and Mr.
Durham (the "EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT").

        WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company has determined that it is
in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to transition the
office of Chief Executive Officer to another individual.

        WHEREAS, such transition constitutes a "INVOLUNTARY TERMINATION" as
defined in the Employment Agreement.

        WHEREAS, the Company wishes to retain Mr. Durham's services and
expertise as a part-time employee and a member of the Board of Directors of the
Company.

        WHEREAS, Mr. Durham and the Company wish to enter into an agreement
concerning his separation as the Company's Chief Executive Officer and the
recasting of his employment arrangement with the Company.

        NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained in
this Agreement, Mr. Durham and the Company agree as follows:

        1. CHANGE OF EMPLOYMENT RELATIONSHIP. The parties hereto agree that Mr.
Durham's employment with the Company as its Chief Executive Officer has been
terminated effective as of June 12, 2000. Mr. Durham further agrees that he
hereby voluntarily resigns as a director and/or officer of all subsidiaries or
affiliates of QuadraMed Corporation (except ChartOne, Inc.) for which he has
served as director or officer prior to the date of this Agreement, and as a
Trustee of the Company's pensions plans. The Employment Agreement is hereby
terminated and canceled effective as of the effective date of this Agreement,
with no compensation, benefits, damages, obligations or other payments owing to
Mr. Durham thereunder (other than as specifically set forth in this Agreement).

        2. CONTINUED EMPLOYMENT. The parties hereby agree that Mr. Durham will
continue as a part-time employee of the Company. His duties will entail making
himself available from time to time on reasonable advance notice to provide to
the executive officers of the Company the benefit of his knowledge about the
Company and the healthcare information industry in general.

        3. SERVICE AS A DIRECTOR. The parties agree that Mr. Durham will
continue as a member of the Company's Board of Directors (the "BOARD") and shall
serve as the Chairman of

                                       1.
<PAGE>   2

the Board through and including December 31, 2000, at which time Mr. Durham
hereby agrees to resign as Chairman. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a
majority of the non-management members of the Board determines in good faith
that Mr. Durham is interfering in a material fashion with the management and
operation of the Company by its Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Durham agrees to
resign as Chairman of the Company effective upon receiving notice of such
determination.

        4. CONSIDERATION TO MR. DURHAM. The Company shall make the following
payments and provide the following additional benefits and consideration to Mr.
Durham, subject to Section 8 hereof:

           (a) SEVERANCE BENEFIT. As payment in full of its obligations under
the Employment Agreement to pay severance benefits upon an Involuntary
Termination, immediately upon execution of this Agreement by Mr. Durham the
Company will pay to Trigon Resources Corporation, a corporation owned by Mr.
Durham and his family, a lump sum equal to $2,316,000 within thirty (30) days of
the effective date of this Agreement and will continue for a minimum period of
24 months after the date of this Agreement, all life, health and disability plan
participation, benefit plans and other coverages to which Mr. Durham and his
dependents are currently entitled.

           (b) CONTINUING COMPENSATION. In consideration of his continued
services as both Chairman of the Company and a part-time employee, the Company
will pay Mr. Durham's salary at the annualized rate of $250,000 per annum
through January 1, 2001 and at a salary of $2,000 per month thereafter through
and including December 31, 2003. All such amounts will be paid at periodic
intervals in accordance with the Company's payroll practices for salaried
employees. For so long as Mr. Durham's status as a part-time employee entitles
him to benefits under the Company's policies, the Company will continue all
life, health and disability plan participation, benefit plans and other
coverages to which Mr. Durham and his dependents are currently entitled.

           (c) RESTRICTED SHARES. With respect to the 112,000 restricted shares
of Common Stock of the Company granted to Mr. Durham by the Company in October
1998 as to which, as of the date of termination of the Employment Agreement,
applicable restrictions and repurchase rights had not terminated (the
"RESTRICTED SHARES"), all restrictions or repurchase rights with respect to all
such Restricted Shares shall be deemed to have lapsed, and promptly after
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Exhibits attached hereto the
Company shall deliver to Mr. Durham certificates representing such shares, such
certificates to be without any legends or other restrictions that, subject to
any limitation imposed by law on Mr. Durham's sale or other transfer of such
shares, would preclude Mr. Durham's immediate sale or other transfer of such
shares.

           (d) OPTIONS. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that the
Company's records reflect Mr. Durham has currently outstanding options (the
"OPTIONS") to purchase a total of 405,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company
pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Company's 1996 Stock Incentive Plan,
as amended and the Company's 1999 Stock Incentive

                                       2.
<PAGE>   3

Plan, 292,792 of which are currently vested, and 105,208 of which remain
unvested as of the execution of this Agreement. All of Mr. Durham's unvested
stock options shall automatically accelerate and vest as of the date of this
Agreement such that each such option will be immediately exercisable and will
remain exercisable for the full term of the applicable option agreement.

           (e) INDEMNIFICATION; D&O INSURANCE. Notwithstanding his termination
of employment with the Company, Mr. Durham (i) shall continue to be entitled to
indemnification in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation (as amended)
and the Bylaws of the Company in effect at any time and Mr. Durham's
Indemnification Agreement with the Company, and (ii) shall remain covered under
the Company's Directors' and Officers' Insurance ("D&O INSURANCE") policy until
December 31, 2007 with respect to acts occurring prior to termination of Mr.
Durham's service as a member of the Board, and the Company agrees that such D&O
Insurance policy shall have policy limits at least as high as the Company's
existing policy.

           (f) DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLANS. Mr. Durham's interest in the
QuadraMed Corporation Stock Exchange Deferred Compensation Plan and QuadraMed
Corporation's Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan shall continue to vest in
accordance with the terms of those plans during the period of Mr. Durham's
continued service as a director of the Company. Mr. Durham hereby acknowledges
and agrees that his transition from the offices of both Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer and the modification of his employment arrangement contained
herein shall not be treated as an Involuntary Termination as defined in the
Stock Exchange Deferred Compensation Plan and Supplemental Executive Retirement
Plan, respectively. Any failure of the stockholders of the Company to elect Mr.
Durham as a member of the Board will immediately vest the benefits under both
the Stock Exchange Deferred Compensation Plan and the Supplemental Executive
Retirement Plan (but shall not accelerate payment of amounts due thereunder).
The Company covenants and agrees that it shall make the premium payments of
approximately $500,000 with respect to the life insurance policies designed to
fund payments due under the Stock Exchange Plan in each of the third and fourth
fiscal quarters of the year 2000. The Company shall not be obligated to any
specific schedule with respect to making contributions to the trust fund
established for the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan; provided, however,
that the Company agrees in good faith to fund the Supplemental Executive
Retirement Plan when the Company has the ability to do so; and further provided
that the Company agrees to immediately fund the Supplemental Executive
Retirement Plan concurrently with and contingent upon any Change in Control
(which term shall have the same definition in this Agreement as in Mr. Durham's
employment agreement dated January 1, 1999).

           (g) EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT. Mr. Durham will be entitled to
reimbursement from the Company for all customary, ordinary and necessary
business expenses incurred by Mr. Durham in the performance of his duties
hereunder, provided Mr. Durham furnishes the Company with vouchers, receipts and
other substantiation of such expenses in accordance with Company policies. The
Company agrees to pay Mr. Durham's cell phone charges attributable to his
service as an employee of QuadraMed during the period Mr. Durham is employed by
the Company in any capacity.

                                       3.

           (h) LIFE INSURANCE. The Company will continue to pay premiums with
respect to Mr. Durham's split-dollar life insurance arrangement and will
continue Mr. Durham's group life insurance policy in the amount of $1,000,000
during the time he is serving as an employee or a director of the Company.

           (i) TAX EFFECT OF PAYMENTS.

                (1) GROSS-UP PAYMENT. In the event that it is determined,
        pursuant to a binding settlement with the Internal Revenue Service (the
        "IRS") or pursuant to a judgment of a court of law the time for appeal
        of which has expired, that any payment or distribution of any type to or
        of for Employee's benefit made by the Company, by any of its affiliates,
        by any person who acquires ownership or effective control of the Company
        or ownership of a substantial portion of the Company's assets (within
        the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
        amended (the "Code") and regulations thereunder) or by any affiliate of
        such person pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (the "Total
        Payments") is subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the
        Code or any interest or penalties with respect to such excise tax (such
        excise tax, together with any such interest or penalties, are
        collectively referred to herein as the "Excise Tax"), then Employee
        shall be entitled to receive an additional payment (a "Gross-Up
        Payment") in an amount such that after payment by Employee of all taxes
        imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, including any excise tax imposed by
        Section 4999 of the Code, Employee retains an amount of the Gross-Up
        Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed on the Total Payments.

                (2) DETERMINATION OF LIABILITY. In the event that the IRS
        asserts, or threatens to assert, that any of the Total Payments
        hereunder is subject to Excise Taxes, the Employee shall promptly notify
        the Company in writing of such assertion or threatened assertion. The
        Company shall thereupon have the exclusive right and obligation to
        control, defend, settle, compromise or prosecute in any manner any
        audit, examination, investigation, hearing or other proceeding with
        respect to such assertion or threatened assertion by the IRS. The
        Employee agrees to cooperate fully with the Company in such regard
        (including, without limitation, through the sharing of records and the
        execution by the Employee of any documents or forms, such as powers of
        attorney, as shall be reasonably requested by the Company).

                (3) CALCULATION OF AMOUNT. In the event that the parties hereto
        are unable to agree as to the amount of the Gross-Up Payment due to
        Employee pursuant to this Section 4, the parties hereto hereby agree
        that the amount of the Gross-Up Payment shall be determined by the
        independent accounting firm then serving as the Company's auditors at
        the Company's expense.

           5. OFFICE; SECRETARY; SERVICES. Through and including December 31,
2000, the Company shall provide Mr. Durham with an office at its principal
corporate offices in San Rafael, California, access to secretarial services and
access to Company sponsored voice mail and e-mail services.

which Mr. Durham is receiving compensation payments pursuant to Section 2 and
one (1) year thereafter, Mr. Durham will not directly or indirectly (i) solicit
any Company employee, independent contractor or consultant to leave the

other relationships at the time existing between the Company and its current
employees, independent contractors or consultants, (ii) solicit any of the

pertaining to the Company's business or clients, including (without limitation)

and the names, addresses and telephone numbers of customers, will belong solely

Durham may devise, conceive, develop or reduce to practice (whether individually
or jointly with others) during the time Mr. Durham serves as a director of the

Durham to the Company, except for any idea, discovery or invention (i) for which
no Company equipment, supplies, facility or trade secret information is used,

Mr. Durham for the Company. The foregoing exception corresponds to the
assignment of inventions precluded by California Labor Code Section 2870,
attached as Exhibit "A." Mr. Durham will, at all times whether during or after
the term of this Agreement, assist the Company, at the Company's sole expense,
in obtaining, maintaining, defending and enforcing all legal rights and remedies
of the Company, including, without limitation, patents, copyrights and other

shall have executed and delivered to the Company a release in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit "B" (the "RELEASE"), and such Release shall have become
irrevocable. If Mr. Durham exercises his right to revoke the Release in

director of the Company. Mr. Durham's cooperation in connection with such claims
or actions shall include being reasonably available, subject to his other
business and personal commitments,

                                       5.

to meet with counsel to prepare for discovery or trial and to testify truthfully
as a witness when reasonably requested by the Company at reasonable times and
with reasonable advance notice to Mr. Durham. The Company shall reimburse Mr.
Durham for any out-of-pocket expenses, including the reasonable fees of Mr.
Durham's personal attorney, which he incurs in connection with such cooperation.
On or after January 1, 2001, the Company shall pay Mr. Durham additional
compensation in the amount of $500 per hour for his cooperation in accordance
with this Section 9.

with the Company, a copy of which is attached to this Agreement as Exhibit "D,"
and under applicable trade secret law, Mr. Durham is obliged to keep in
confidence all trade secrets and proprietary and confidential information of the
Company, whether patentable or not which he learned or of which he became aware
or informed during his employment by the Company (except to the extent
disclosure is or may be required by a statute, by a court of law, by any
governmental agency having supervisory authority over the business of the
Company or by any administrative or legislative body (including a committee
thereof) with apparent jurisdiction to order him to divulge, disclose or make
accessible such information), and not to directly or indirectly publish,

under written and oral secrecy agreements. Mr. Durham agrees to abide by the
terms and conditions of the Proprietary Information Agreement and of this
Section 11 both during his employment by the Company and thereafter. Anything to
the contrary notwithstanding, this Section 11 shall not

                                       6.
<PAGE>   7

apply to any knowledge or information that has become generally known in the
industry or by the public (other than through a breach of this Agreement by Mr.
Durham).

        12. NO ADMISSION. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to
constitute an admission or evidence of any wrongdoing or liability on the part
of the Company or Mr. Durham and the parties agree that neither this Agreement
nor any of the terms or conditions contained herein may be used in any future
dispute or proceeding except one to enforce the terms of this Agreement.

        13. TAX AND WITHHOLDING. Any federal, state and/or local income,
personal property, franchise, excise or other taxes owed by Mr. Durham as a
result of the payments or benefits provided under the terms of this Agreement

hereto agree and acknowledge that Company shall have the right to withhold from
any payments made to Mr. Durham any and all amounts that are necessary to enable
the Company to satisfy any withholding or other tax obligation that arises in
connection with such payments or benefits, and the Company shall report any such
amounts that it determines are compensation income on a Form W-2.

        14. NO ORAL MODIFICATION. This Agreement may not be changed orally and
no modification, amendment or waiver of any provision contained in this
Agreement, or any future representation, promise or condition in connection with
the subject matter of this Agreement shall be binding upon any party hereto

Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any
court having jurisdiction. Each party shall bear its own costs, including but
not limited to attorneys' fees, of the arbitration or of any litigation arising
out of this Agreement.

        16. SEVERABILITY. In the event that any provision of this Agreement or
the application thereof should be held to be void, voidable, unlawful or, for
any reason, unenforceable, the remaining portion and application shall remain in
full force and effect, and to that end the provisions of this Agreement are
declared to be severable.

        17. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement is made and entered into, and shall be
subject to, governed by, and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the
State of California and shall be fully enforceable in the courts of that state,

        3. CONSIDERATION TO MR. CRACCHIOLO. The Company shall make the following
payments and provide the following additional benefits and consideration to Mr.
Cracchiolo, subject to Section 7 hereof:

           (a) SEVERANCE BENEFIT. As payment in full of its obligations under
the Employment Agreement to pay severance benefits upon an Involuntary
Termination, immediately upon execution of this Agreement by Mr. Cracchiolo the
Company will pay to Mr. Cracchiolo, a lump sum equal to $687,500 on June 30,
2000, and will continue for a period of 12 months after June 30, 2000 all life,
health and disability plan participation, benefit plans and other coverages to
which Mr. Cracchiolo and his dependents are currently entitled. The Company and
Mr. Cracchiolo acknowledge and agree that the amount of severance benefit
payable pursuant to Section 3(a) is less than the severance benefit required by
the terms of the Employment Agreement, and Mr. Cracchiolo waives any right to
payment of any increased amount.

           (b) RESTRICTED SHARES. With respect to the 60,000 restricted shares
of Common Stock of the Company granted to Mr. Cracchiolo by the Company in
October 1998 as to which, as of the date of termination of the Employment
Agreement, applicable restrictions and repurchase rights had not terminated (the
"Restricted Shares"), all restrictions or repurchase rights with respect to all
such Restricted Shares shall be deemed to have lapsed, and promptly after
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Exhibits attached hereto the
Company shall deliver to Mr. Cracchiolo certificates representing such shares,
such certificates to be without any legends or other restrictions that, subject
to any limitation imposed by law on Mr. Cracchiolo's sale or other transfer of
such shares, would preclude Mr. Cracchiolo's immediate sale or other transfer of
such shares.

           (c) OPTIONS. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that the
Company records reflect that Mr. Cracchiolo has currently outstanding options
(the "Options") to purchase a total of 270,000 shares of Common Stock of the
Company pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Company's 1996 Stock
Incentive Plan, as amended and the Company's 1999 Stock Incentive Plan, 201,765
of which will vest, and 68,235 of which will remain unvested as of June 30,
2000. All of Mr. Cracchiolo's unvested stock options shall automatically
accelerate and vest as of the date of this Agreement such that each such option
will be immediately exercisable and will remain exercisable for the full term of
the applicable option agreement.

           (d) INDEMNIFICATION; D&O INSURANCE. Notwithstanding his termination
of employment with the Company, Mr. Cracchiolo (i) shall continue to be entitled
to indemnification in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation (as
amended) and the Bylaws of the Company in effect at any time and Mr.
Cracchiolo's Indemnification

<PAGE>   3

Directors' and Officers' Insurance ("D&O Insurance") policy until December 31,
2007 with respect to acts occurring prior to termination of Mr. Cracchiolo's
service as a member of the Board, and the Company agrees that such D&O Insurance
policy shall have policy limits at least as high as the Company's existing
policy.

           (e) STOCK EXCHANGE DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN. Mr. Cracchiolo's
interest in the QuadraMed Corporation Stock Exchange Deferred Compensation Plan
shall vest in full immediately in accordance with the terms of that plan. Mr.
Cracchiolo hereby acknowledges and agrees that his transition from the offices
of both President and Chief Operating Officer and the modification of his
employment arrangement contained herein shall not be treated as an Involuntary
Termination as defined in the Stock Exchange Deferred Compensation Plan.
Accordingly, amounts due Mr. Cracchiolo pursuant to the Stock Exchange Deferred
Compensation Plan shall not be payable immediately, but, instead, shall be
payable to Mr. Cracchiolo in accordance with the terms of such plan.

           (f) SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN. Effective as of June 30,
2000 and concurrently with payment of the severance compensation referenced in
Section 3(a) above, Mr. Cracchiolo hereby irrevocably agrees that he shall
forfeit all rights to payment of any kind under the QuadraMed Corporation
Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, and Mr. Cracchiolo further acknowledges
and agrees that his transition from the offices of both President and Chief
Operating Officer will not be treated as an Involuntary Termination as defined
in such Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan.

           (g) EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT. Mr. Cracchiolo will be entitled to
reimbursement from the Company for all customary, ordinary and necessary
business expenses incurred by Mr. Cracchiolo in the performance of his
employment or consulting duties hereunder, provided Mr. Cracchiolo furnishes the
Company with vouchers, receipts and other substantiation of such expenses in
accordance with Company policies.

           (h) SPLIT-DOLLAR LIFE INSURANCE. The Company will continue to pay
premiums with respect to Mr. Cracchiolo's split-dollar life insurance
arrangement.

           (i) TAX EFFECT OF PAYMENTS.

               (1) GROSS-UP PAYMENT. In the event that it is determined,
pursuant to a binding settlement with the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS")
or pursuant to a judgment of a court of law the time for appeal of which has
expired, that any payment or distribution of any type to or of for Employee's
benefit made by the Company, by any of its affiliates, by any person who
acquires ownership or effective control of the Company or ownership of a
substantial portion of the Company's assets (within the meaning of Section 280G
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as

<PAGE>   4

amended (the "Code") and regulations thereunder) or by any affiliate of such
person pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (the "Total Payments") is subject
to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or any interest or
penalties with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any
such interest or penalties, are collectively referred to herein as the "Excise
Tax"), then Employee shall be entitled to receive an additional payment (a
"Gross-Up Payment") in an amount such that after payment by Employee of all
taxes imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, including any excise tax imposed by
Section 4999 of the Code, Employee retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment
equal to the Excise Tax imposed on the Total Payments.

               (2) DETERMINATION OF LIABILITY. In the event that the IRS
asserts, or threatens to assert, that any of the Total Payments hereunder is
subject to Excise Taxes, the Employee shall promptly notify the Company in
writing of such assertion or threatened assertion. The Company shall thereupon
have the exclusive right and obligation to control, defend, settle, compromise
or prosecute in any manner any audit, examination, investigation, hearing or
other proceeding with respect to such assertion or threatened assertion by the
IRS. The Employee agrees to cooperate fully with the Company in such regard
(including, without limitation, through the sharing of records and the execution
by the Employee of any documents or forms, such as powers of attorney, as shall
be reasonably requested by the Company).

               (3) CALCULATION OF AMOUNT. In the event that the parties hereto
are unable to agree as to the amount of the Gross-Up Payment due to Employee
pursuant to this Section 4, the parties hereto hereby agree that the amount of
the Gross-Up Payment shall be determined by the independent accounting firm then
serving as the Company's auditors at the Company's expense.
