Item 5.  Other Events.

On August 18, 1998, HealthDesk Corporation ("HealthDesk"), MC Informatics, Inc.
("MCIF"), and MC Acquisition Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of
HealthDesk ("Sub"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the
"Agreement"). Under the Agreement, Sub will merge with and into MCIF and the
holders of MCIF capital stock will be entitled to receive approximately 5
million shares of the Company's Common Stock; provided, however, that in no
event shall HealthDesk issue less than forty percent (40%) of HealthDesk's
capital stock in this transaction. The Agreement has been approved by the
respective Boards of Directors of HealthDesk and MCIF, and the transactions
contemplated thereby are subject to the approval of the respective shareholders
of HealthDesk and MCIF and other customary closing conditions. The acquisition
contemplated by the Agreement is intended to qualify as a tax-free
reorganization.

On September 29, 1998, HealthDesk, Patient Infosystems, Inc. ("PATI") and
Patient Infosystems Acquisition Corp. ("Buyer") entered into an Asset Purchase
Agreement (the "Asset Agreement") pursuant to which HealthDesk sold
substantially all of its assets to Buyer and in exchange, Buyer agreed to
deliver to HealthDesk at the closing approximately $635,000. In addition, Buyer
has agreed to assume and discharge liabilities and obligations but only to the
extent that such liabilities or obligations accrue on or after the closing date.
