                            QMACS(TM) SOFTWARE LICENSE

This License is made and entered by and between Quality Care Solutions, Inc, a
Nevada corporation with it's principal place of business at 5030 E. Sunrise

                               TERMS & CONDITIONS

I.       QMACS(TM) SOFTWARE LICENSE GRANT

         a)       Grant of License. QCSI hereby grants to CLIENT a
                  non-exclusive, non-transferable license ("License") to use
                  QMACS(TM) Software and QMACS(TM) Documentation. This License
                  is expressly made and granted subject to the terms,
                  conditions, limitations and restrictions as set forth herein.

         b)       Fees. To maintain its License hereunder, CLIENT shall pay to
                  QCSI all fees and costs as provided in Exhibit A to this
                  License. Provided that all fees and costs are paid timely, and
                  CLIENT complies with the terms and conditions of this License,
                  the initial term of this License shall be for a period of
                  three (3) years beginning on the first day of the month after
                  the date of execution of this License. Thereafter, the term of
                  this License shall automatically be extended for consecutive
                  additional terms of one (1) year each, unless either party
                  provides the other with written notice of such party's
                  intention not to extend the term at least one hundred twenty
                  (120) days prior to the end of the initial term or any
                  subsequent term. At such time, the license can be extended for
                  an additional sixty (60) days or upon mutual agreement of the
                  parties on a month to month basis while CLIENT converts to
                  another system.

         c)       Sole Use. This license authorizes CLIENT to use QMACS(TM) only
                  for CLIENT's own internal purposes. CLIENT shall not allow any
                  third party to access, copy or use QMACS(TM) or QMACS(TM)
                  Documentation, nor shall it use QMACS(TM) to provide
                  time-sharing or data processing services to a third party
                  without a separate written agreement with QCSI. CLIENT may
                  allow University of Utah Health Network (UUHN) and Utah Valley
                  Physicians Network (UVPN) to provide ability to issue Prior
                  Authorizations using QMACS(TM) and for View purposes only. Any
                  other additions to use of QMACS(TM) for delegated partners or
                  contracted vendors needs prior written approval by QCSI.

         d)       Ownership/Derivative Works/Safeguard. QMACS(TM) Software,
                  documentation, training materials, plans, prices,
                  configurations, specifications, techniques, algorithms,
                  schemas, screen prints and processes contained herein, or any
                  modification, extraction, or extrapolations thereof, are the
                  property and trade secrets of QCSI and are subject to
                  copyright protections. Any copyright notice does not imply
                  unrestricted or public access. No duplication, usage,
                  disclosure, or publication thereof, in whole or in part, for
                  any purpose is permitted, except that which is expressly
                  permitted by this license or other written permission of QCSI.
                  CLIENT shall include in all copies made by it notices of
                  copyright and other proprietary rights included by QCSI in or
                  on the QMACS(TM) Software and Documentation provided to
                  CLIENT. All copies of QMACS(TM) Documentation are provided to
                  CLIENT only for the duration of this License and only for the
                  purpose of facilitating the use by CLIENT of QMACS(TM). CLIENT
                  specifically agrees that any derivative works or modifications
                  of QMACS(TM) shall be the property of QCSI and CLIENT hereby
                  assigns all title and ownership interest therein to QCSI.
                  Derivative works are any modifications of QMACS(TM) Software
                  or work, which is based on QMACS(TM) Software source or object
                  code, or which requires QMACS(TM) Software to function. Such
                  derivative works shall be deemed to be QMACS(TM) for the
                  purposes of this License. QCSI's representations, warranties
                  and liabilities shall not extend to derivative works and
                  modifications. CLIENT agrees to safeguard all code against
                  non-licensed use, copying, transfer or inspection by any third
                  party. CLIENT shall require all persons and entities to whom
                  CLIENT has granted authority to save data or who have access
                  to any Executable Code to execute and submit to QCSI a
                  confidentiality agreement.

   2
         e)       Breach. In the event of a breach or the threat of a breach of
                  this License, QCSI, in addition to any other remedies it may
                  have at law or in equity, shall be entitled to a restraining
                  order, preliminary injunction, and other appropriate relief so
                  as to specifically enforce the terms of this License, and any
                  other agreement entered into in conjunction with this license.
                  CLIENT agrees that a breach of this License would cause QCSI
                  irreparable injury. This License may be terminated with ninety
                  (90) days prior written notice if either Party fails to comply
                  with the terms, conditions or any covenant under this License
                  and fails to perform or cure the same within forty-five (45)
                  days of receipt of written notice.

         f)       Loss or Damages to QMACS(TM) Software and QMACS(TM)
                  Documentation. In the event of loss, damage, or destruction of
                  any of the QMACS(TM) Software or QMACS(TM) Documentation, it
                  will be replaced by QCSI at the written request of CLIENT.
                  CLIENT shall pay QCSI's reasonable reproduction and delivery
                  expenses for such replacement.

         g)       Obligations Upon Termination. Upon expiration or termination
                  of the License, all Copies of QMACS(TM) Software and QMACS(TM)
                  Documentation shall promptly be delivered to QCSI or destroyed
                  by CLIENT, and CLIENT shall certify the same in writing within
                  ninety (90) days.

         h)       Standard Support. CLIENT shall receive standard support, as
                  defined by QCSI policies and procedures, during the term of
                  this License.

                  CLIENT shall have option to purchase additional or extended

II.      MISCELLANEOUS

         a)       QMACS(TM) Software and Documentation. QCSI will deliver at
                  least one machine-readable copy (QMACS(TM) Executable Code
                  form) of each program for each QMACS(TM) module in accordance
                  with QMACS(TM) Documentation. QCSI agrees to provide one (1)
                  hardcopy and one (1) electronic copy of QMACS(TM)
                  Documentation corresponding to each module to CLIENT as such
                  Documentation is published or updated. At CLIENT's option,
                  CLIENT may purchase additional hardcopies of Documentation
                  from QCSI at QCSI's list price in effect from time to time.

         b)       QMACS(TM) Standard Reports. QCSI will deliver a limited set of
                  standard reports with the Software. CLIENT acknowledges that
                  third-party report writing software tools are required to
                  create new reports or modify QCSI's standard reports. The
                  license fee, support and training cost for third-party report
                  writing tools are not included in this License and must be
                  acquired separately. CLIENT acknowledges that QCSI's standard
                  reports are templates and examples of reports QCSI has
                  developed for non-specific use. The CLIENT acknowledges
                  responsibility for the design, development and production of
                  its own reports, documents, letters and identification cards
                  to be used in conjunction with the Software. CLIENT agrees the
                  delivery of QMACS(TM) Standard Reports meets any report
                  production requirements of CLIENT. Training on reports
                  provided by QCSI will be limited to use of Crystal Reports,
                  Report Administrator and QCSI standard reports as they apply
                  to QCSI's standard report set.

         c)       Electronic Data Interface (EDI) Engine. QCSI will deliver a
                  method to facilitate electronic data import and export to and
                  from the QMACS(TM) database using the HIPAA mandated X.12 ASC
                  Format.

         d)       Reference Data. QCSI agrees to provide the minimal reference
                  data as required to configure and test QMACS(TM) Software.
                  QCSI agrees to provide and maintain for CLIENT the reference
                  data as outlined in EXHIBIT B, Scope of Services. For any
                  other reference data CLIENT is responsible for the annual
                  procurement, update and maintenance of all reference data.
                  QCSI agrees to provide the data table structure and interface
                  method to facilitate loading, editing and maintenance of
                  reference data required to operate QMACS(TM).

         e)       Software Modification Pursuant to Governmental Regulation.
                  After written notice to QCSI, CLIENT shall be entitled to
                  receive, without additional charge, such modifications to
                  QMACS(TM) Software as are required to reflect any mandatory
                  changes in federal government managed care regulations that
                  are applicable where CLIENT is utilizing the QMACS(TM)
                  Software. CLIENT agrees to provide said regulatory requirement
                  information to QCSI no later than ninety (90) days prior to
                  its effective date. QCSI shall provide only a single solution
                  to any given mandatory change, which is required by the
                  appropriate controlling government agency. Such solution will
                  satisfy the mandatory change required by appropriate
                  controlling government agency.

         f)       Escrow Statement. QCSI shall maintain a copy of the most
                  recent Source Code for QMACS(TM) Software with Ft. Knox Escrow
                  Services Inc. or a trustee mutually acceptable to QCSI and
                  CLIENT. In the event QCSI becomes insolvent, makes an
                  assignment of assets for the benefit of creditors, has a
                  trustee or receiver appointed (either voluntary or
                  involuntarily), is adjudicated bankrupt, or involuntary
                  bankrupt proceedings are commenced against QCSI or receiver,
                  or commences any dissolution or liquidation proceedings, then
                  the trustee shall be directed to deliver the Source Code to
                  CLIENT. In the event that QCSI does not resolve reproducible,
                  critical Anomalies as defined in EXHIBIT E within a mutually
                  agreed upon timeframe, CLIENT may obtain access to QCSI's
                  Source Code held in escrow by trustee. CLIENT shall provide
                  written notification to both QCSI and trustee of intention to
                  access Source Code. QCSI shall notify CLIENT who the appointed
                  trustee is, and give notice prior to any of the actions
                  mentioned herein. CLIENT shall reimburse QCSI for any costs of
                  Source Code escrow, escrow maintenance or Source Code access.


III.     LIMITED WARRANTY, PATENT, AND COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT

         a)       Limited Warranty. QCSI warrants that it shall remedy any
                  Anomaly within QCSI's support policy response time after
                  notification is received from CLIENT. Upon receipt of CLIENT's
                  notice that the Software is not functioning according to the
                  QMACS(TM) Documentation, QCSI will, without additional cost to
                  CLIENT, provide the technical and/or programming resources,
                  including personnel with the requisite expertise, necessary to
                  address and correct the problem provided that QCSI can
                  replicate the reported problem using CLIENT supplied data in a
                  standard computing environment. This warranty is conditional
                  upon CLIENT's computing environment being consistent with
                  QCSI's recommended hardware and software specifications and in
                  good working order and further provided that the Software has
                  been properly used and has not been modified and/or serviced
                  by an entity other than QCSI. QCSI does not warrant that the
                  QMACS(TM) Software will meet CLIENT's requirements or will
                  operate in the combinations which may be selected for use by
                  CLIENT, or that the operation of the QMACS(TM) Software will
                  be uninterrupted or error free. This warranty does not extend
                  to QMACS(TM) Software modified by CLIENT or for Anomalies due
                  to CLIENT misuse or third-party products. QCSI's warranty
                  covers only service to correct Anomalies reported during the
                  term of this License.

         b)       NO OTHER WARRANTIES. THE FOREGOING IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER
                  WARRANTIES EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED. QCSI HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL
                  WARRANTIES NOT EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS LICENSE INCLUDING
                  BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY
                  OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

                  CLIENT HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY RELIANCE ON ANY WARRANTY OR
                  REPRESENTATION NOT EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS LICENSE.

         c)       NO LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT WILL QCSI
                  BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES CAUSED BY CLIENT'S FAILURE TO
                  PERFORM CLIENT'S RESPONSIBILITIES, OR FOR ANY LOST PROFITS,
                  LOST SAVINGS, LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF USE OF THE QMACS(TM),
                  COSTS OF RECREATING LOST DATA, OR ANY OTHER INDIRECT, SPECIAL
                  OR OTHER CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, EVEN IF QCSI HAD BEEN ADVISED
                  OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY CLAIM AGAINST
                  CLIENT BY ANY OTHER PARTY.

         d)       LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY AND REMEDIES. QCSI's AGGREGATE
                  LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES TO CLIENT FROM ANY CAUSE WHATSOEVER, AND
                  REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT,
                  COMPUTER MALPRACTICE, PRODUCTS LIABILITY, STRICT LIABILITY, OR
                  OTHERWISE SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT OF THE IMPLEMENTATION
                  FEES PAID TO QCSI.

         e)       Time Limitations. No action, regardless of form, arising out
                  of this license may be brought by CLIENT later than two (2)
                  years after the cause of action has arisen.

         f)       Indemnification. QCSI promises to indemnify CLIENT, at QCSI's
                  expense, against any claim that QMACS(TM) Software infringes
                  on a valid patent, copyright, or trade secret in the United
                  States. QCSI will also pay all costs, damages, and attorney's
                  fees that a court finally awards as a result of such claim, to
                  the limit of QCSI's liability as determined by the court.
                  QCSI's duties under this section are conditioned upon the
                  following:

                           1) CLIENT shall give QCSI prompt written notice of
                           any actual or threatened claim.

                           2) QCSI shall have control of the defense of any
                           claim and of all negotiations for the settlement or
                           compromise of such claim.

                           3) CLIENT shall cooperate with QCSI in the defense or
                           settlement of any claim at QCSI's expense.


                           4) The claim does not arise out of CLIENT's
                           modification of QMACS(TM) Software or the use of
                           QMACS(TM) Software in combination with anything not
                           approved by QCSI.

                  If a patent, trade secret or copyright infringement occurs, or
                  in QCSI's judgment is likely to occur, QCSI, at its option
                  and expense, may either procure the right for CLIENT to
                  continue using the QMACS(TM) Software, or replace or modify it
                  to be functionally equivalent, to the satisfaction of CLIENT,
                  so that it becomes non-infringing. If neither of the foregoing
                  alternatives is reasonably available in QCSI's judgment,
                  CLIENT shall return all copies of QMACS(TM) Software and
                  Documentation in question to QCSI upon QCSI's written request.
                  QCSI shall refund the pro-rata cost of the implementation fee
                  paid to QCSI of the specific module based on a three-year
                  useful life.

  III.   GENERAL PROVISIONS

         a)       Applicable Law and Arbitration. This License shall be
                  construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the
                  State of Arizona and the venue for any dispute whatsoever
                  shall be in the Superior Court of Maricopa County, Arizona. In
                  the event that the Parties are unable to resolve within a

                  Arbitration Act, A.R.S. Sections 12-1501 et seq., and the
                  Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration

                  litigation, the prevailing Party shall be entitled to recover
                  costs and expenses including reasonable attorney's fees.

         b)       Assignment. CLIENT has neither the power nor the right to

                  under the License, or to assign or transfer the license, or
                  any right under any agreement executed in connection with this
                  license without prior written approval of QCSI, which shall
                  not be reasonably withheld. Any attempt by CLIENT to assign
                  any right or duty under this license shall be void as a matter
                  of law.

         c)       Export Act. CLIENT hereby warrants and certifies that no part
                  of the QMACS(TM) Software, modifications thereof,

                  item or product will be made available or exported to any
                  country in contravention of any law of the United States,
                  including the Export Administration Act of 1979 and
                  regulations relating thereto.

         d)       Modification of the Agreement/Entire Agreement. This License
                  supersedes all oral or written agreements, if any, between the
                  Parties and constitutes the entire agreement between the
                  parties with respect to the matters contained herein. Any
                  modification, amendment, cancellation, or waiver of rights
                  under this License shall be effective only if in writing
                  signed by an Officer of the Party against whom enforcement of
                  the same is sought. No waiver of any breach of this License
                  shall be construed as a waiver of any other rights under this
                  License. No delay in acting with regard to any breach shall be
                  construed as a waiver of the breach.

                  granted to CLIENT in writing are reserved.

         f)       Severability. In the event that any provision of this License
                  shall become or be unenforceable, invalid, void or voidable,
                  the same shall be limited, construed or, if necessary, limited
                  to the extent necessary to remove such defect and the
                  remaining provisions shall continue to bind the Parties as
                  though the unenforceable, invalid, void or voidable part are
                  not a part of the License.

         g)       Force Majeure. Either party shall be excused for failures and
                  delays in performance of their

                  and without the fault of such party. This provision, shall
                  not, however, release such Party from using its best efforts
                  to avoid or remove such cause, and such party shall continue
                  performance hereunder with the utmost dispatch whenever such
                  causes are removed. Upon claiming any such excuse or delay for
                  nonperformance, such Party shall give prompt notice thereof to
                  the other Party.

         h)       Recruitment of Personnel. During the initial and any
                  subsequent term of this License and for a period of one (1)
                  year thereafter, neither QCSI nor CLIENT will hire, employ or

                  following termination of such employee's employment, without
                  the prior written consent of the other.

         i)       All Exhibits attached to this License Agreement are
                  incorporated into and made part of this License Agreement.

                        FEES, RATES AND PAYMENT SCHEDULE
                                   DATA CENTER


DATA CENTER/SERVICE CENTER SERVICES:

In addition to a QMACS(TM) Software license, CLIENT has elected to purchase the
following services from QCSI according to the scope of services as defined
herein:

         Exhibit B Scope of Services

CONVERSION OPTION

CLIENT may elect to convert from Data Center Core Solution to Full license
QMACS(TM) agreement prior to the expiration of the 36 month agreement. In the
event CLIENT decides to convert the agreement, CLIENT agrees to pay QCSI a
conversion fee of Fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) which will cover five
hundred (500) hours of service. Any excess hours utilized will be billed at the
hourly rate of $140.00/hour. All hardware lease fees will be transferred to
CLIENT at such time and will be a continuation of the lease in place.

SOFTWARE LICENSE FEE SCHEDULE:

In consideration for the license and services granted hereunder, CLIENT hereby
agrees to pay QCSI according to the following Software License Fee Schedule.
CLIENT hereby agrees to permit QCSI electronic access to CLIENT's enrollment
database monthly for the purpose of determining the count of active members
enrolled on the first day of the respective month for Software License Fee
billing purposes. The SQL access to the member data file will be completed
within the first 5 working days of the month. The actual enrollment will vary
until adjustments are no longer made to the data base for the specific billing
date. In the event QCSI is unable to determine the proper enrollment on the
first of each month, CLIENT agrees to accept QCSI's estimation of the
enrollment. Each monthly Software License Fee subject to PMPM rate will be
reconciled within one hundred and eighty (180) days to a corrected amount. The
Software License Fee is payable beginning with the earliest of the October 1,
1999 or the first of the month of Live Operation as defined below.

         MINIMUM MONTHLY FEE: [Confidential treatment has been requested]

         The Minimum Monthly Fee for the term of the License Agreement of

         PMPM SOFTWARE LICENSE FEE:

         The PMPM Software License Fee shall be $[****] Per Member Per Month
         ("PMPM") over [****] members per month.

LIVE OPERATION [Confidential treatment has been requested]

Live Operation means the date the CLIENT begins using the System to enroll or
manage membership, administer providers, record or issue authorizations and pay
claims in a parallel pre-production or production environment. In the event
CLIENT begins claims processing for University of Utah employees and/or the
Public Health employees prior to the date of Live Operation, QCSI will allow
CLIENT to limit payment of PMPM fees to membership levels for these two groups
only, up to [****] members, rather than payment of PMPM fee for the minimum
membership of [****] members. ...

EARLY PAYMENT DISCOUNT

CLIENT shall be entitled to a two percent (2.00%) discount of the total monthly
software license fee if payments are made to QCSI in advance on a quarterly
basis. Payments must be received by QCSI no later than the first (1st) day of
the beginning of the calendar quarter for the discount to apply that same
calendar quarter.

LATE PAYMENT AND INTEREST

If Software License Fees are not paid within 30 days of invoice date, CLIENT
agrees to pay a late payment penalty of five percent (5.00%) of the Software
License Fee due in addition to the Software License Fee. CLIENT agrees any
payment under this Exhibit A which is more than thirty (30) days late will
accrue interest at the rate of twelve percent (12.00%) per annum (or the highest
rate of interest allowed by applicable law if lower) until paid in full. QCSI
shall have the right to suspend all its obligations under this License in the
event that any payment is more than forty-five (45) days late. QCSI agrees to
notify CLIENT in writing at least 15 days prior to suspending its obligations
for late or non-payment.

In the event that CLIENT determines in its reasonable judgment that a billing
error has occurred, CLIENT must notify QCSI in writing within thirty (30) days
of receipt of such erroneous items. CLIENT agrees to pay all undisputed items on
an invoice, which may have disputed items contained thereon. QCSI agrees that no
late payment penalty shall be applicable for contested invoice items until
thirty (30) days following QCSI's response to CLIENT's notice of billing error.


TRAVEL AND EXPENSE GUIDELINES

diem expenses for meals, which are incurred by QCSI at the CLIENT's office
within 15 days of receipt of invoice for reimbursement of expenses. CLIENT
agrees to pay travel time at a reduced rate of fifty (50%) percent of the hourly
cost to a maximum of four (4) hours of travel time per day. Such guidelines
shall apply to all services provided by QCSI including installation of QMACS(TM)
Software, Implementation Services, Training, and Support Services.

                           a future date, significant cost savings are realized
                           due to CLIENT's ability to contract for such services
                           locally and/or newer technology is utilized which
                           provides significant cost savings, such savings will

                           retrieve IVR information from the QMACS(TM) database.

QCSI and Client agree that the work performed by QCSI submitted as QCSI invoice
number 1891.1 represents system set up tasks ordinarily performed prior to a
client's go-live on the information system. Since Client's actual go-live date
was so aggressive as to prevent completion of invoiced services prior to
Client's go-live date, these services were completed and implemented post
go-live. However, QCSI does hereby represent, and Client agrees that the service
units billed on this invoice reflect work done on a developmental basis which
are core functions to be performed by the system on an ongoing basis. QCSI's
system functionality modifications supported by this service unit billing do and
will remain in place in Client's system throughout the term of the original
agreement amended hereby.

                          RETRO TERMINATION OF MEMBERS

The Retro Termination of Members is supported by QMACS and aQDEN through three
(3) Retro Termination Options. Each of the retro termination options requires
the manual reversal of finalized claims where recoupment of payments to
providers is desired. The reconciliation process in capitation and premium
billing from the enrollment termination date is handled correctly in each
option.

OPTION ONE

     NOT able to retro terminate a member's eligibility prior to the end date of
     any claim or authorization (regardless of status) attached to that member.
     If claims or auths exist for the member prior to the date of the
     termination, place a restriction on the member for the termination date and
     manually process (reverse, etc.) claims and authorizations. Use of a
     restriction will activate reconciliation of premium billing and capitation
     for the restriction period. Claims subsequently received with a date of
     service during the restriction period will deny if edit 217, Member has an
     active restriction on enrollment, is set to fire.

     This option must be requested by the client.

OPTION TWO

     NOT able to retro terminate a member's eligibility prior to the end date of
     a finalized claim or authorization. If an unfinalized claim with an end
     date prior to the retro termination date is attached to the member, the
     claim will automatically be reopened for adjudication. During adjudication
     it will be denied.

     If an unused authorization with an end date prior to the retro termination
     date is attached to the member, the authorization will not be closed. A
     message will be displayed to the user informing them that the member has
     open authorizations that exist after the eligibly segment's effective date
     range. The user can then abort the retro term wizard; change the end date
     on the attached authorization to reflect the member's termination; and,
     restart retro termination.

     If the desired retro termination is for a date prior to the end date of a
     finalized claim or authorization, a restriction must be placed on the
     member for the retro termination date. Use of a restriction will activate
     reconciliation of premium billing and capitation for the restriction
     period. Claims subsequently received with a date of service during the
     restriction period will deny if edit 217, Member has an active restriction
     on enrollment, is set to fire.

     If there are no finalized claims the PCP/PDP assignment will be terminated
     using the date entered for the retro termination of the enrollment. Recon
     for capitation paid out for dates after the retro termination date will be
     accurate.




Retro Termination Option Three Agreement                                  Page 1

     While this option may require two activities to complete the retro
     termination (one for the earliest date where there are no finalized claims
     or authorizations; and a second to restrict the member for an earlier date
     where finalized claims and authorizations may exist), it is the recommended
     approach to handle retro terminations. This option is the standard approach
     delivered with the software.

OPTION THREE

     ABLE to retro terminate a member's eligibility prior to the end date of any
     claim or authorization (regardless of status).

     If an unfinalized claim with an end date prior to the retro termination
     date is attached to the member, the claim will automatically be reopened
     for adjudication. During adjudication it will be denied.

     If an unused authorization with an end date prior to the retro termination
     date is attached to the member, the authorization will not be closed. A
     message will be displayed to the user informing them that the member has
     open authorizations that exist after the eligibly segment's effective date
     range. The user can then abort the retro term wizard; revise the
     authorization to reflect the member's termination; and, restart retro
     termination.

     If the retro termination is for a date prior to the end date of a finalized
     claim or authorization, the retro termination will be allowed. No notice is
     provided to the user and these claims may later appear to have been paid
     outside a valid enrollment segment. If the paid claims are not reversed and
     recouped, financial and statistical reporting may be incorrect. Currently
     referenced data for reporting may no longer be accurate and reports and
     finance manager queries may need to be modified.

     If there are no finalized claims the PCP/PDP assignment will be terminated
     using the date entered for the retro termination of the enrollment.
     However, if a PCP/PDP assignment exists with an effective date AFTER the
     retro termination date, the old PCP assignment (previously terminated) will
     be left unchanged. The current PCP assignment will be terminated on the
     current date. The current date will be stamped in the retro termination
     date column in the enrollment table. Recon for capitation paid out (both
     PCP CAP and Global CAP) for dates after the retro termination date will be
     accurate.

     Option three is configured for clients only at their specific request and
     only after the client has read and agreed to the provisions of this
     document.

By signing this document the client understands that they are requesting
configuration of their QCSI software for Option Three Retro Termination and that
inclusion of this option in their software will potentially create the
appearance of data inconsistencies that cannot be determined at this time. No
support for any perceived defects caused by the use of this option will be
provided by QCSI. This software option is provided on an "as is" basis "with all
faults." By using this software option, you assume the entire risk as to its
quality and performance. Specifically, QCSI makes no representation or warranty
that such software option is "error-free" or meets any user's particular
standards, requirements, or needs. Should you request that Option 3 be re-set to
either Option 2 or Option 1, such request must be in writing and will be honored


Retro Termination Option Three Agreement                                  Page 2
   17
without charge. However you understand that this disclaimer will still apply to
any claims or data records affected by the Retro Term Option 3 prior to the
re-set.

Furthermore, you understand that use of this option may cause claims within the
database to appear to be erroneously paid outside a valid enrollment segment.
If financial and statistical reports are not modified to reference the correct
data fields, results from the reports may be incorrect. Numerous other data
relationships may appear to be affected and may result in perceived defects in
payment, reporting, etc. Finance Manager results may be indeterminate and must
be verified or may not work at all. Support for perceived errors in the
operation of the software as a result of use of this option may be unavailable
or undeliverable.

WITH REGARDS TO THE RETRO TERMINATION OPTION THREE, QCSI SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS
ANY CONDITIONS AND WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE,
INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED CONDITION OR WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY - In no event will QCSI be liable for any direct or
indirect damages, including loss of profits, lost data, interruption of
business, or other special, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages of
any kind arising out of the use, reliance on or inability to use this software
option. Should it prove defective, you and not QCSI shall assume the entire
cost of all necessary servicing and repair. Such defects are not considered
"anomalies" per usual QCSI policies and procedures.

I have reviewed the disclaimer concerning Retro Termination of Members. I
request QCSI to provide Retro Termination Option Three for use by my
organization.
