Administrative Committee
HBO & Company Profit Sharing and Savings Plan


We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of HBO & Company Profit Sharing and Savings Plan as of December 31, 1998 and
1997, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits
for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. 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 net assets available for benefits of HBO & Company
Profit Sharing and Savings Plan at December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the changes
in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules are presented
for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic
financial statements but are supplementary information required by the
Securities and Exchange Commission and the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in our audit of the basic financial statements and,
in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the
basic financial statements taken as a whole.

                 HBO & COMPANY PROFIT SHARING AND SAVINGS PLAN

                         Notes to Financial Statements

                          December 31, 1998 and 1997


(1)  Description of Plan
     -------------------

     The following description of HBO & Company Profit Sharing and Savings Plan
     (the "Plan") provides only general information. The Plan document should be
     referred to for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions.

     The Plan is a defined contribution plan which covers all employees of HBO &
     Company and HBO & Company of Georgia (jointly referred to herein as the
     "Company") who have completed six months of service (12 months for pre-1995
     plan years) and have attained age 21 as of a Plan entry date. The Plan's
     entry dates are January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1.

     Each eligible employee can elect to defer a percentage of pretax
     compensation, as defined, of from one to a maximum of fifteen percent and
     may contribute such amounts to the Plan. Such deferral elections must be
     made in whole percentages. If necessary, the salary deferral contributions
     allowed by a participant will be reduced by the Plan's Administrative
     Committee (see note 3) so that such contributions do not cause the Plan to
     be discriminatory or exceed the limitations of the Internal Revenue Code.

     The Company may also contribute to the Plan at the election of the Board of
     Directors through matching contributions and/or discretionary
     contributions. Each participant's share of Company discretionary
     contributions is related to the participant's compensation, as defined.
     Company contributions may not exceed the maximum allowable as a deduction
     as defined by the Internal Revenue Code. During 1998 and 1997, the Company
     contributed $.75 for each $1 contributed by employees; however, this
     Company matching contribution was only applicable for employee
     contributions of up to 4% of pretax compensation. No Company discretionary
     contributions were authorized for the years ended December 31, 1998 and
     1997.

     Participants are 100% vested in their pretax compensation contributions and
     earnings thereon at all times. Company matching and discretionary
     contributions credited to a participant's account and earnings thereon vest
     on a graded basis. A participant becomes 20% vested in his/her Company
     account after one year of service and an additional 20% becomes vested in
     each of the following four years until a participant fully vests after five
     years of service (effective January 1, 1995). Prior to January 1, 1995, a
     participant became 20% vested in his/her Company account after three years
     of service and an additional 20% vested in each of the following four years
     until a participant fully vested after seven years of service. Further, a
     participant is automatically 100% vested without regard to years of service
     in the event of termination due to death, disability, or attainment of age
     65. Allocation of Plan earnings/losses is based on a participant's account
     balance in the respective fund.

     Forfeitures of terminated participants' nonvested accounts are allocated
     among the remaining Plan participants at the end of the Plan year as if the
     forfeitures are additional matching contributions, as designated by the
     Administrative Committee. At December 31, 1998, forfeited nonvested
     accounts amounted to $378,133. These accounts may be used to reduce future
     employer contributions.

     Prior to July 1, 1998, participants had the option to direct the investment
     of their accounts between ten investment funds: the Fidelity Retirement
     Money Market Fund, the Fidelity Managed Income Fund, the Fidelity
     Intermediate Bond Fund, the Fidelity Growth and Income Fund, the Fidelity
     Magellan Fund, the Fidelity Asset Manager Fund, the Fidelity International
     Growth and Income Fund, the Fidelity Blue Chip Growth Fund, the Fidelity
     Equity Income II Fund and HBO & Company Common Stock Fund. On July 1, 1998
     contributions to the Fidelity International Growth and Income Fund were
     discontinued and two additional funds, the Janus Balanced Fund and the
     Templeton Foreign A Fund, were added to the Plan.

                   Notes to Financial Statements, Continued

                          December 31, 1998 and 1997


(1)  Description of Plan, Continued
     ------------------------------

     Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to
     a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their vested account
     balance. Loan terms range up to 5 years, except that loan terms for the
     purchase of a primary residence are at the discretion of the Administrative
     Committee. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant's
     account and bear interest at a rate determined by the Administrative
     Committee. Principal and interest is paid ratably through monthly payroll
     deductions.

     Upon termination, participants under age 65 with account balances totaling
     more than $5,000 may elect to (1) delay the distribution of accounts or (2)
     receive vested benefits generally in a lump sum distribution. The full
     value of benefits (regardless of amount) is payable upon normal or
     postponed retirement or to beneficiaries upon death of the participant.
     Participants with balances totaling less than $5,000 or on total or
     permanent disability receive a lump sum distribution of vested benefits.

     Under a provision of the Plan, the Company, through actions of its Board of
     Directors, reserves the right to terminate the Plan. If the Plan is
     terminated, each participant becomes fully vested as of the termination
     date.

(2)  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
     ------------------------------------------

     The accounting records of the Plan are maintained on the accrual basis.

     HBO & Company Common Stock and investment funds held for investment by the
     Plan are stated at quoted market values from independent published sources.
     Loans receivable from participants are stated at cost which approximates
     fair value.

     The change in the difference between current value and the cost of the
     investments is reflected in the statement of changes in net assets
     available for benefits as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in fair
     value of investments.

     Realized gain (loss) on sale of investments is the difference between the
     proceeds received and the average cost of investments sold.

     Benefits are recorded when paid.

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
     accepted accounting principles requires the Plan administrator to make
     estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and
     disclosures. Accordingly, actual results may differ from those estimates.

(3)  Administration
     --------------

     The Company's Employee Benefits Administrative Committee (the
     "Administrative Committee") is the Plan administrator. Fidelity is the
     Trustee with custodial responsibility for the Plan's assets. The Plan is
     liable for all administrative expenses not paid by the Company. At the
     direction of the Administrative Committee, the Plan's administrative
     expenses for 1998 and 1997 were paid by the Company.

                          December 31, 1998 and 1997


(4)  Income Tax Status
     -----------------

     The Plan is intended to be qualified under the Internal Revenue Code (the
     "IRC"). A favorable ruling was obtained from the IRS as to the tax-exempt
     status of the Plan in May 1997.

(5)  Transactions with Parties In Interest
     -------------------------------------

     During the year ended December 31, 1998, the Plan purchased 2,103,273
     shares of the Common Stock of HBO & Company, the Plan sponsor, for
     $30,301,298, and sold 304,892 shares of the Common Stock of HBO & Company
     for $10,529,746 in accordance with the terms of the Plan.

     During the year ended December 31, 1997, the Plan purchased 780,292 shares
     of the Common Stock of HBO & Company, the Plan sponsor, for $8,980,274, and
     sold 138,013 shares of the Common Stock of HBO & Company for $8,449,660 in

(9)  Subsequent Events
     -----------------
     In January 1999, the Company merged with McKesson, Inc. and a decision was
     made to merge the profit sharing plans of both companies. The plans were
     merged effective April 1, 1999, forming the McKesson HBOC, Inc. Profit
     Sharing Investment Plan. In conjunction with the merger, several amendments
     were made to the Plan provisions, including a change that matching
     contributions consist entirely of McKesson HBOC, Inc. common stock and a
     change in Plan eligibility requirements. Subsequent to the Plan's merger,
     the Plan's investment in the common stock of McKesson HBOC, Inc. had a
     significant decline in market value.
