Item 2.       Acquisition or Disposition of Assets


(a) The disposition


          (I)  On February 28, 1997 pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement,
               Consolidated Health Care Associates, Inc. consummated the sale of
               three of its four Pennsylvania clinics to Richard and Vicky
               Tribbitt. The clinics included those located in Millersburg, PA,
               Mechanicsburg, PA, and Shermans Dale, PA. The Company had
               purchased these clinics from the Buyer in 1993.

          (II) The Asset Purchase Agreement also provided for the assignment of
               trade receivables, assignments of leases, collection agreements,
               security agreements, a service agreement, the assignment of trade
               payables, rights to the use of names similar to "CPRS" and
               "RSCP", and certain fixed assets used in the business of the
               clinics involved.

               The consideration for the sale of the clinics and related assets
               was $900,000 in cash and a $150,000 five year note receivable at
               9%. The Buyer also assumed $230,000 of associated liabilities.

               In January 1997, prior to entering into the Asset Purchase
               Agreement, the Company agreed to satisfy a note of the Company
               held by the Buyer issued in connection with the 1993 business
               acquisition in the amount of $413,259 by assignment to the Buyer
               of $484,000 in face amount of receivables, but only to the extent
               of collections in the amount due under the note.

               Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Buyer agreed to
               advance certain operating expenses of the clinics proposed to be
               sold, which advances would be deducted from the cash portion of
               the purchase price. The Buyer advanced $100,000 which amount was
               deducted from the $900,000 cash portion of the sale
               consideration.

        Notes To Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet


(1)   Adjustments to reflect proceeds received by the Company from the
      Disposition. The adjustments reflects proceeds of $900,000 in cash and a
      $150,000 five year note.

                                                        ==========

(2)  Adjustment to reflect the exchange of certain accounts pursuant to the
     Disposition and related transactions. The buyer will receive $805,168 of
     net accounts receivable related to the assets to be disposed of and will
     assume $226,000 of accounts payable. In January 1997, the Company agreed to
     satisfy a note of the Company held by the buyer in the amount of $413,259,
     out of the proceeds of $484,000 in face amount of the aforesaid
     receivables. Accordingly, the pro forma adjustments also reflect
     elimination of the liability under the note.

(3)  Adjustment to reflect deferred financing expense that will be expensed on
     the completion of the Disposition. In April of 1996, the Company
     renegotiated a promissory note in the principal amount of $413,259, which
     note was issued to the buyer in connection with the acquisition by the
     Company of certain assets included in the Disposition. In consideration of
     the renegotiation of the note, the Company issued to the noteholder 120,000
     shares of Common Stock deemed valued at $.25 per share, or $30,000 in the
     aggregate. This amount was being amortized as a deferred financing cost.
     The remaining unamortized portion of this deferred financing cost in the
     amount of $21,500 will be expensed upon the completion of the Disposition.

(4)  Adjustment to eliminate the net value of the assets included in the
     Disposition, as follows:

      Fixed asset acquisition cost                 $89,030
      Accumulated depreciation                      54,287
                                                    ------

      Net fixed assets                              34,743
                                                    ======

(5)  Adjustment to reflect the gain realized upon the Disposition.

       Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations

(1)  Adjustment to eliminate actual net revenues for the periods presented
     attributable to the assets to be disposed of.

(2)  Adjustment to eliminate direct actual and accrued expenses relating to the
     assets to be disposed of, which consist principally of salaries, wages,
     fringe benefits and other clinical costs.

(3)  Assumes no reduction in the Company's administrative and selling expenses
     resulting from the Disposition.

(4)  Adjustment to eliminate actual depreciation expense for the periods
     presented attributable to the assets to be disposed of.

(5)  In January 1997, the Company agreed to satisfy a note of the Company held
     by the buyer in the amount of $413,259, out of the proceeds of $484,000 in
     face amount of receivables attributable to the assets to be disposed of.
     The pro forma adjustment eliminates actual and accrued interest expense
     attributable to this note. Lower interest expense resulting from the use of
     proceeds of the Disposition to reduce the Company's outstanding debt is not
     reflected in the pro forma adjustments.

(6)  Excludes extraordinary income resulting from the gain on the sale of the
     Disposition. Accordingly, the pro forma adjustments do not assume any
     change in Federal and state income tax.
