Item 5. Other Events

     Dialysis Corporation of America (the "Company"), entered into a Commercial
Loan Agreement with Heritage Community Bank (the "Bank"), in a principal amount
of $787,500.  The Agreement provides for an annual interest rate of 8.29%, and
$2,800 loan origination fee and additional nonrefundable fees and charges,
aggregating $8,771.50.  The Company executed a six-year demand promissory note,
payable in 60 monthly payments, 59 installments of $6,800, with the balance
payable on April 3, 2006.  The Note is subject to a $150.00 prepayment fee.
The loan is secured by the interest in the Company's real property located at
3564 North Crossing Circle, Valdosta, Georgia.  The Company is required to
maintain with the Bank a $15,000 money-market interest bearing account.  The
Company's parent, Medicore, Inc., has guaranteed the loan.

     The property is leased in part to one of our dialysis centers under a ten-

its medical offices under a ten year lease with two five year renewal terms.
