                           RAMSAY MANAGED CARE, INC.
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)
                               SEPTEMBER 30, 1996

     NOTE 1.

       The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
     prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
     interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and
     Article 10 of Regulation S-B.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the
     information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles
     for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all
     adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim
     information are of a normal recurring nature and have been included.  The
     Company's business is seasonal in nature and subject to general economic
     conditions and other factors.  Accordingly, operating results for the
     quarter ended September 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the
     results that may be expected for the year.  For further information, refer
     to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the
     Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended June 30, 1996

       The Company was incorporated in the State of Delaware in July 1993, and
     commenced operations with the acquisition of Florida Psychiatric
     Management, Inc. ("FPM") on October 31, 1993.

       Certain amounts for the quarter ended September 30, 1995 have been
     reclassified to reflect the Company's discontinued HMO operation.

     NOTE 2.

       As of October 30, 1996, the Company entered into a definitive agreement
     to sell its HMO operation to an established healthcare provider (see "Item
     5. - Other Information" below).

       The closing of the sale is subject to regulatory approvals, third party
     consents and other customary closing conditions.

       Due to these conditions, the Company will not adjust the loss on sale of
     discontinued operation ($4,927,000) that was recorded for the year ended
     June 30, 1996 until the completion of the sale.

     NOTE 3.

       As previously announced, on October 1, 1996, the Company and Ramsay
     Health Care, Inc. ("RHCI") entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger
     providing for the merger of the Company into a wholly owned subsidiary of
     RHCI. Following the merger, all amounts owed to RHCI by the Company will
     become an intercompany payable and receivable between the Company and RHCI,
     respectively.

                                       6

 
       The merger is subject to approval by the shareholders of each company,
     the receipt of lender, governmental and other consents and the declaration
     of effectiveness by the Securities and Exchange Commission of a
     registration statement filed by RHCI.  Subject to the satisfaction of these
     conditions, it is expected that the merger will be consummated in March
     1997.

     NOTE 4.

     The Company's long-term debt consists of the following:

       The 8%, six-year, unsecured promissory note (the "Subordinated Promissory
     Note") issued to RHCI, which is the Company's former parent corporation,
     represents certain amounts due to RHCI at October 25, 1994.  The note is
     subordinated and junior to all indebtedness of the Company.  See note 3
     above and "Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
     Condition and Results of Operations - Indebtedness" below.

       On April 26, 1996, the Company amended its credit facility (the "Credit
     Facility") with the First Union National Bank of Florida (the "Bank").  A
     previous Revolving Credit Facility for up to $4,200,000 was replaced by a
     $1,500,000 Revolving Master Line of Credit (the "Master Revolver") and a
     $100,000 Term Loan.

       The Master Revolver will expire on December 31, 1996 and the Term Loan is
     repayable in 36 level monthly principal payments of $2,777.70, plus
     interest.  At September 30, 1996, $1,500,000 was outstanding under the
     Master Revolver.  The Master Revolver bears interest at the following
     rates, as applicable and selected by the Company from time to time: (i) the
     Bank's LIBOR adjusted rate plus 3.0% or (ii) the Bank's prime rate plus
     0.75%.  The $100,000 Term Loan bears interest at the Bank's prime rate plus
     1.0%.

                                       7

 
       As part of the acquisition of FPM in October 1993, the Company issued 7%
     three year debentures, totaling $2,500,000.  These debentures were prepaid
     with the proceeds of a $1,667,000 three year secured term loan from the
     Bank on April 28, 1995. This three year term loan bears interest at (i) the
     Bank's LIBOR adjusted rate plus 2.5% or (ii) the Bank's prime rate plus
     0.50%, as selected by the Company.  Principal on this three year term loan
     is payable quarterly with a final maturity of January 31, 1998.  This three
     year secured term loan, the additional Term Loan of $100,000 (referred to
     above) and the Master Revolver are secured by a pledge of the stock RMCI's
     subsidiaries and the assets of RMCI's subsidiaries, and are required to be
     repaid with a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Company's HMO
     operation (see Note 2 above and "Item 5. - Other Information" below).

       The Credit Facility contains covenants customary for facilities of this
     type, which include, without limitation, covenants which contain
     limitations on the ability of FPM and its subsidiaries, subject to certain
     exceptions, to (i) assume or incur liens, (ii) alter the nature of their
     business or effect mergers, consolidations, or sales of assets, (iii) incur
     indebtedness or make investments, (iv) acquire businesses, or (v) pay
     dividends to the Company.  In addition, the Credit Facility contains
     financial covenants related to senior debt to cash flow, interest coverage,
     and minimum stockholders' equity.  At June 30, 1996, FPM's minimum
     stockholders' equity ratio was less than the requirement.  The Bank agreed
     to waive this requirement for the year ended June 30, 1996.

       In connection with the Company's acquisition of certain assets of Human
     Dynamics Institute ("HDI"), through a wholly owned subsidiary, FPMBH of
     Arizona, Inc., the Company issued a promissory note in the principal amount
     of $1,000,000 (the "HDI Note") to Phoenix South Community Mental Health
     Centers ("Phoenix South").  Interest accrues on the HDI Note at a fixed
     rate of 8.25% per annum and payable monthly in arrears, together with equal
     installments of principal, until the HDI Note matures on June 30, 1997.
     The HDI Note is secured pursuant to a Stock Pledge Agreement dated June 30,
     1994, pursuant to which Phoenix South has a first priority lien on all of
     the common stock of FPMBH of Arizona, Inc.  Upon payment in full of the HDI
     Note, the Bank will have a first priority lien on the common stock of FPMBH
     of Arizona under the Credit Facility.

       As at June 30, 1996, the aggregate amount of principal on the Company's
     indebtedness payable during the fiscal year of the Company ending June 30,
     1997 and during each of the four next four fiscal years of the Company will
     be approximately $2,334,000, $2,001,000, $1,437,000, $1,412,000, and
     $352,000, respectively.


     NOTE 5.

               The provision for income taxes included in the consolidated
     statements of operations differs from the amounts computed by applying the
     normal statutory rates to income before income taxes because such provision
     includes (a) amounts reportable as income for federal income tax purposes
     which are not income for financial reporting purposes, (b) amounts deducted
     for financial reporting purposes that are not allowable deductions for
     Federal and state income tax purposes and (c) amounts for state income

                                       8

 
     taxes applicable to profitable subsidiaries which do not utilize the
     operating losses generated by unprofitable subsidiaries to offset taxable
     income.  At September 30, 1996, the Company has estimated operating loss
     carry forwards of approximately $4.9 million for Federal income tax
     purposes, which expire from 2005 to 2010 and approximately $6.6 million for
     state income tax purposes, which expire from 2005 to 2010, and are
     available to reduce future income taxes.

     ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
               RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

          The Company provides comprehensive managed health care services
     through wholly owned subsidiary companies.  The behavioral health services
     are composed of the management of mental health services and substance
     abuse care on behalf of self-insured employers, health maintenance
     organizations, insurance companies and government agencies in different
     states.  The Company not only manages such care but also provides where
     appropriate the delivery of care through integrated systems involving
     clinics and other providers.  These services range from benefit design,
     case management and claims processing to fully capitated (at risk) mental
     health care treatment.

          At September 30, 1996, the Company operated in 10 states and has a
     strategy to consolidate its behavioral health operations through
     development and joint venture efforts in various regions of the country in
     which it currently operates.

          On November 5, 1996, the Company announced that it had entered into an
     agreement for the sale of its discontinued HMO operation (see "Item 5 -
     Other Information" below) .

          In connection with the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private
     Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company notes that this
     Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB contains forward-looking statements about
     the Company.  The Company is hereby setting forth cautionary statements
     identifying important factors that may cause the Company's actual results
     or condition to differ materially from those set forth in any forward-
     looking statement.  Some of the most significant factors include (i) the
     Company's inability to dispose of its HMO operation, (ii) the effects of
     competition on the Company's business, including the loss of a major
     customer or the loss of members of its provider network of physicians,
     hospitals, and other healthcare providers, and (iii) statutory, regulatory
     and administrative changes or interpretations of existing statutory and
     regulatory provisions affecting the conduct of the Company's businesses, or
     the failure to obtain exemptions from the existing statutory or regulatory
     provisions.  Accordingly, there can be no assurances that any anticipated
     future results or condition will be achieved.


     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

          The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, certain
     items of the Company's consolidated statements of operations as a
     percentage of the Company's net revenues from continuing operations.

     (a) Certain amounts for the quarter ended September 30, 1995 have been
     reclassified to reflect the Company's discontinued HMO operation.


     QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996
     COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995

            Net revenues in the quarter ended September 30, 1996, were $5.80
     million compared to $4.70 million in the comparable quarter of the prior
     fiscal year.  The increase in net revenues is attributable to new or
     expanded managed care contracts obtained, in particular in North Carolina
     effective October 1995 and Texas effective September 1996.  Clinical and
     other clinical service revenue increased as a result of new clinics opened
     during calendar year 1995.

            Contracted provider services expenses increased to $2.40 million in
     the September quarter of 1996 compared to $1.65 million in the prior year
     September quarter as a result of the increased number of members whose care
     is managed by the Company.

            Other operating expenses comprising salaries and wages, and general
     and administrative expenses decreased from $3.45 million to $3.30 million
     reflecting the increasing efficiencies and cost management in the
     operations base of the Company's managed behavioral health division.

            The Company recorded a loss before income taxes of $592,000 compared
     to a loss of $834,000 incurred in the same quarter in the prior year.  The
     Company's results continue to be impacted by general corporate costs,
     increased interest and amortization expenses, as well as continuing start
     up-costs in the clinical operations of the Company.

     LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

            General.  In connection with the Distribution of the Company's
     common stock on April 24, 1995 by Ramsay Health Care, Inc. ("RHCI") to its
     shareholders (the "Distribution"), the Company and RHCI entered into the
     Second Amended and Restated Distribution Agreement (the "Distribution
     Agreement").  Pursuant to the Distribution Agreement, each of RHCI and RMCI
     has agreed to pay to the other the net amount of all outstanding
     intercompany receivables and payables as of April 24, 1995 (other than
     those evidenced by the $6 million unsecured subordinated promissory note
     issued by RMCI to RHCI representing certain advances made by RHCI to or on
     behalf of RMCI (the "Subordinated Promissory Note") which are governed by
     the terms thereof).  As of September 30, 1996, RMCI owed RHCI approximately
     $2.1 million in relation to these items, and in addition, accrued interest
     on the Subordinated Promissory Note of $480,000.  See the discussion below
     under "Indebtedness" concerning RHCI's agreement not to require repayment
     of net cash advances and accrued interest on the Subordinated Promissory
     Note until after October 1997.

            During the quarter ended September 30, 1996, the Company used net
     cash of $73,000 in its continuing operations.  The Company anticipates that
     its sources of liquidity during fiscal 1997 primarily will be its cash flow
     from continuing operations, funds anticipated to be received from the sale
     of its HMO operation, the proceeds from a $3 million  private placement of
     preferred stock discussed under "Indebtedness" below and advances from an
     affiliate discussed under "Indebtedness" below.  See also "Item 5 -Other
     Information" below.

            The Company expects to use its sources of liquidity for working
     capital and other general corporate purposes, including for the payment of
     costs and expenses discussed above and costs associated with the
     establishment and development of its managed mental healthcare business.

            There can be no assurance that the Company will expand its
     operations by development, acquisition or internal expansion or that any
     development effort, acquisition or expansion will be profitable.

            As discussed below (see "Indebtedness") the Company believes that it
     may require additional funds for working capital and general corporate
     purposes.

            Financing.  On April 26, 1996, the Company amended its credit
     facility (the "Credit Facility") with the First Union National Bank of
     Florida (the "Bank"). A previous Revolving Credit Facility for up
     $4,200,000 was replaced by a $1,500,000 Revolving Master Line of Credit
     (the "Master Revolver") and a $100,000 Term Loan.

            The Master Revolver will expire on December 31, 1996 and the
     $100,000  Term Loan is repayable in 36 level monthly principal payments of
     $2,777.70, plus interest.  At September 30, 1996, $1,500,000 was
     outstanding under the Master Revolver.  The Master Revolver bears interest
     at the following rates, as applicable and selected by the Company from time
     to time: (i) the Bank's LIBOR adjusted rate plus

                                       12

 
     3.0% or (ii) the Bank's prime rate plus 0.75%.  The $100,000 Term Loan
     bears interest at the Bank's prime rate plus 1.0%.

            In October 1996, the Credit Facility was further amended pursuant to
     which Apex Healthcare, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company,
     guaranteed the obligations of the Company under the Credit Facility and the
     Company pledged all of the shares of capital stock of Apex to the Bank as
     collateral.

            As part of the acquisition of FPM in October 1993, the Company
     issued 7% three year debentures, totaling $2,500,000 (see "Indebtedness"
     below).  These debentures were prepaid with the proceeds of a $1,667,000
     three year secured term loan from the Bank on April 28, 1995.  This three
     year term loan bears interest at (i) the Bank's LIBOR adjusted rate plus
     2.5% or (ii) the bank's prime rate plus 0.50%, as selected by the Company.
     Principal on this three year term loan is payable quarterly with a final
     maturity of January 31, 1998.  This three year secured term loan, the
     additional term loan of $100,000 (referred to above) and the Master
     Revolver are secured by a pledge of the stock of RMCI's subsidiaries and
     the assets of RMCI's subsidiaries, and are required to be repaid with a
     portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Company's HMO operation.
 
            The Credit Facility contains covenants customary for facilities of
     this type, which include, without limitation, covenants which contain
     limitations on the ability of FPM and its subsidiaries, subject to certain
     exceptions, to (i) assume or incur liens, (ii) alter the nature of their
     business or effect mergers, consolidations, or sales of assets, (iii) incur
     indebtedness or make investments, (iv) acquire businesses, or (v) pay
     dividends to the Company .  In addition, the Credit Facility contains
     financial covenants related to senior debt to cash flow, interest coverage,
     and minimum stockholders' equity.  At June 30, 1996, FPM's minimum
     stockholders' equity ratio was less than the requirement.  The Bank agreed
     to waive this requirement for the year ended June 30, 1996.

            Indebtedness.  In connection with the Company's acquisition of all
     the outstanding shares of common stock of FPM in October 1993, FPM issued
     7% debentures due October 31, 1996 (the "Debentures") in the aggregate
     principal amount of $2,500,000 to the selling stockholders of FPM,
     including Martin Lazoritz, Robert W. Pollack and I. Paul Mandelkern,
     officers of the Company or its subsidiaries.  Subsequently, on April 28,
     1995, these Debentures were prepaid with the proceeds of the $1,667,000
     three year secured term loan discussed above.

            In connection with the Company's acquisition of the assets of HDI,
     through a wholly owned subsidiary FPMBH of Arizona, Inc., the Company
     issued a promissory note in the principal amount of $1,000,000 (the "HDI
     Note") to Phoenix South Community Mental Health Centers ("Phoenix South").
     Interest accrues on the HDI Note at a fixed rate of 8.25% per annum and is
     payable monthly in arrears, together with equal installments of principal,
     until the HDI Note matures on June 30, 1997.  The HDI Note is secured
     pursuant to a Stock Pledge Agreement dated June 30, 1994, pursuant to which
     Phoenix South has a first priority lien on all of the common stock of FPMBH
     of Arizona, Inc. (f/k/a Ramsay HDI).  Upon payment in full of the HDI Note,
     the Bank

                                       13

 
     will have a first priority lien on the common stock of FPMBH of Arizona
     under the Credit Facility.

            In addition, in connection with the Distribution of RMCI from RHCI,
     RMCI issued to RHCI the Subordinated Promissory Note in the principal
     amount of $6,000,000, evidencing certain funds advanced to or on behalf of
     RMCI by RHCI, including in connection with the acquisition of certain
     acquired businesses.  Prior to its issuance, the amounts evidence by the
     Subordinated Promissory Note were recorded as intercompany indebtedness
     between RMCI and RHCI.  Interest accrues on the Subordinated Promissory
     Note at an annual fixed rate of 8%.

            The Subordinated Promissory Note is unsecured and is subordinated
     and junior in right of payment to all indebtedness of RMCI and its
     subsidiaries incurred in connection with the acquisition of HDI and future
     acquisitions of other managed mental health care services businesses, and
     any other Senior Indebtedness (as defined in the Subordinated Promissory
     Note), including indebtedness arising under the Credit Facility and any
     other bank indebtedness of RMCI or its subsidiaries.  At the present time,
     Senior Indebtedness outstanding is comprised of the HDI Note, the three
     year secured term note to the Bank and amounts due under the Credit
     Facility.

            In September 1996, RHCI and RMCI commenced negotiations to
     restructure the payment terms associated with the net cash advances from
     RHCI totaling $2.1 million as at September 30, 1996, the interest due on
     the Subordinated Promissory Note for the year ending June 30, 1997 and the
     $480,000 of interest accrued on the Subordinated Promissory Note from
     October 1995 to September 30, 1996.  Of the $6,000,000 due on the
     Subordinated Promissory Note, approximately $1,400,000 is due on or before
     June 30, 1997 and the remainder is payable in 13 quarterly installments of
     approximately $353,000, beginning September 30, 1997.  RHCI has agreed not
     to require repayment of the interest on the Subordinated Promissory Note
     for the period October 1, 1995 through September 30, 1996 or the net cash
     advances until after October 1, 1997, all on terms and conditions to be
     mutually agreed upon.

            As of June 30, 1996, the aggregate amount of principal on the
     Company's indebtedness payable during the fiscal year of the Company ending
     June 30, 1997 and during each of the next four fiscal years of the Company
     will be approximately $2,334,000, $2,001,000,  $1,437,000, $1,412,000, and
     $352,000, respectively.

            In June 1996, at the request of RMCI, Paul Ramsay Hospitals Pty.
     Limited ("Ramsay Hospitals"), a corporate affiliate of Paul J. Ramsay, the
     Chairman of the Board of the Company, agreed to loan RMCI up to $3,000,000
     for working capital and general corporate purposes.  On June 28, 1996, RMCI
     borrowed $1,600,000, which was evidenced by a demand promissory note (the
     "First Hospitals Note") payable to Ramsay Hospitals with an interest rate
     of 12% per annum.  In addition, on August 7 and August 8, 1996, RMCI
     borrowed an aggregate of $800,000, which was evidenced by a demand
     promissory note (the "Second Hospitals Note") payable to Ramsay Hospitals
     in the principal amount of the lesser of the amount borrowed or $1,400,000,
     with an interest rate of 12% per annum.  On September 10, 1996, as describe
     below, the First Hospitals Note and the Second Hospitals Note were repaid
     and canceled.

                                       14

 
            On September 10, 1996, RMCI entered into a stock purchase agreement
     with Ramsay Hospitals, pursuant to which Ramsay Hospitals purchased 100,000
     shares of Series 1996 Convertible Preferred Stock at a purchase price of
     $3,000,000.  The purchase price was paid by (i) offset against the
     outstanding principal amounts under the First Hospitals Note and the Second
     Hospitals Note ($1,600,000 and $800,000, respectively), (ii) offset against
     the aggregate accrued unpaid interest on such notes through September 10,
     1996 ($54,667) and (iii) $545,333 in cash.  In connection with the purchase
     of the 100,000 shares of Series 1996 Convertible Preferred Stock by Ramsay
     Hospitals, RMCI issued warrants to Ramsay Hospitals to purchase 300,000
     shares of Common Stock, at an exercise price of $1.00 per share.

            In September 1996, a corporate affiliate of Mr. Ramsay formalized
     its agreement to provide an additional loan facility, if required, of up to
     $2,000,000 to the Company for working capital and general corporate
     purposes.  Borrowings under this facility will bear interest at 15% per
     annum and the Company has agreed to pay Ramsay Hospitals a $100,000
     facility fee in consideration for making the facility available to the
     Company.  At November 1, 1996, $600,000 was borrowed by the Company under
     the facility.

            The Company may be required to raise additional funds for working
     capital, general corporate purposes, development and growth beyond its
     immediate plans and/or to remain competitive with its larger competitors.
     Any additional equity financing may result in substantial dilution to the
     stockholders of the Company. Except for the financing provided by the above
     mentioned affiliate commitment and the Master Revolver (which at September
     30, 1996 was fully drawn), the Company has made no arrangements to obtain
     any additional debt financing, and there can be no assurance that the
     Company will be able to obtain any required additional funds.
