                                  THE COMPANY

BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

     We are an integrated healthcare company whose mission is to provide
medical, pharmacy and related services to patients. We operate a Provider
Service Network in Florida and provide managed care pharmacy operations. Through
our Provider Service Network, we manage the provision of health care services
for patients through agreements with HMOs and other insurers for a significant
portion of the insurance premiums. We currently have pharmacy operations in
Florida, New York, and Maryland.

     We have agreements with HMOs to manage the financial risk for managed care
organizations in South and Central Florida and are responsible for providing
healthcare services to approximately 48,000 patients. We provide our services
through a network of primary care physicians, specialists, hospitals and
ancillary facilities. These providers have contracted to provide services to our
patients agreeing to certain fee schedules and care requirements.

     We have developed management expertise in the fields of:

     - Quality management -- a review of overall patient care by physicians by
       reviewing referrals measured against standard industry guidelines, which
       provide the basis to determine that patient care meets the highest
       standards of medical care.

     - Utilization management -- a daily review of the physicians care and
       services through statistical data created by patient visits, referrals,
       hospital admissions and nursing home information that enables us to
       monitor effective medical care. The methods used also provide disease
       management for the benefit of the high-risk patients.

     - Claims adjudication and payment to physicians and hospitals.

     Under our model, the physicians maintain their independence but are aligned
with a professional staff to assist in providing cost effective medicine. Each
primary care physician provides direct patient services as a primary care doctor
including referrals to specialists, hospital admissions and referrals to
diagnostic services.

     We believe our expertise allows us to provide a service and manage the risk
that health insurance companies cannot provide on an efficient and economic
level. Health insurance companies are typically structured as marketing entities
to sell their products on a broad scale. Due to mounting pressures from the
industry, managed care organizations have altered their strategy, returning to
the traditional model of selling insurance and transferring the risk to a
provider service network. Under such arrangements, managed care organizations
receive premiums from the government Healthcare Financing Administration (HCFA)
and commercial groups and pass a significant percentage of the premium on to a
third party such as us, to provide covered benefits to patients, including
pharmacy and other enhanced services. After all medical expenses are paid, any
surplus or deficit remains with the provider service network. When managed
properly, accepting this risk can create significant surpluses.

     We also use the Internet to help process referral claims between network
primary care physicians and specialists. This process helps reduce the paperwork
in the physician's office as well as provide a more efficient method for the
patient in our network. Our utilization management team communicates with the
physicians on a daily basis to provide overall management of the patient.

     Our executive offices are located at 500 Australian Avenue South, Suite
1000, West Palm Beach, Florida 33401, and our telephone number is (561)
805-8500.

                                  RISK FACTORS

     Prospective investors should carefully consider, along with other matters
referred to herein, the following risk factors.

FAILURE TO MANAGE OUR GROWTH EFFECTIVELY COULD HARM OUR BUSINESS AND RESULTS OF
OPERATION.

     We have experienced rapid growth in our business. This growth may impair
our ability to provide our services efficiently and to manage our employees
adequately. Our strategy is to focus on growth within geographic parameters,
identifying regions throughout Florida. We are taking steps to manage our growth
and to date have not experienced any persistent difficulties in managing our
growth. Future results of operations could be materially adversely affected if
we are unable to manage our growth effectively.

WE HAVE ONLY RECENTLY ACHIEVED PROFITABILITY AND WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SUSTAIN
PROFITABILITY.


     We have achieved increased levels of revenues for the year ended December
31, 2001, and though this was our second profitable year, up to this date we
have operated with negative cash flows. For the year ended December 31, 2001, we
incurred a profit of $1,008,754. For the year ended December 31, 2000, we
incurred a profit of $4,928,569 of which $3,448,258 was a non-recurring gain.
Our operating expenses have increased and can be expected to increase in
connection with our operational growth and, accordingly, our future
profitability may depend on corresponding increases in revenues from operations.
Future events, including unanticipated expenses, increased competition or
changes in government regulation, could have an adverse affect on our operating
margins and results of operations. As a result, we may experience liquidity and
cash flow problems in the future, and may require additional financing. There
can be no assurance that our rate of revenue growth will continue in the future,
that our future operations will be profitable, or that we will be able to obtain
additional financing, if an when necessary, on terms acceptable to us.


OUR QUARTERLY RESULTS WILL LIKELY FLUCTUATE, WHICH COULD CAUSE THE VALUE OF OUR
COMMON STOCK TO DECLINE.

     We are subject to quarterly variations in our medical expenses due to
fluctuations in patient utilization. We have significant fixed operating costs
and, as a result, are highly dependent on patient utilization to sustain
profitability. Our results of operations for any quarter are not necessarily
indicative of results of operations for any future period or full year. We
experience increased patient population and greater use of medical services in
the winter months. As a result, our results of operations may fluctuate
significantly from period to period. In addition, there recently has been
significant volatility in the market price of securities of health care
companies that in many cases we believe has been unrelated to the operating
performance of these companies. We believe that certain factors, such as
legislative and regulatory developments, quarterly fluctuations in our actual or
anticipated results of operations, lower revenues or earnings than those
anticipated by securities analysts, and general economic and financial market
conditions, could cause the price of our common stock to fluctuate
substantially.

THE LOSS OF CERTAIN AGREEMENTS AND THE CAPITATED NATURE OF OUR REVENUES COULD
MATERIALLY EFFECT OUR OPERATIONS.

     The majority of our revenues come from agreements with managed care
organizations that provide for the receipt of capitated fees. The principal
organization that we contract with is Humana. Capitated fees are negotiated fees
that stipulate a specific dollar amount or a percentage of total premium
collected by an insurer or payor source to cover the partial or complete
healthcare services deliveries to a person. We generally enter into agreements
which are for one-year terms and subject to annual negotiation of rates, covered
benefits and other terms and conditions. These agreements may be terminated on
short notice or not renewed on terms favorable to us and our affiliated
providers. We may not be successful in obtaining additional HMO agreements or in
increasing the number of HMO enrollees. A decline in enrollees in HMOs could
also have a material adverse effect on our profitability.

     Under the HMO agreements we, through our affiliated providers, generally
are responsible for the provision of all covered hospital benefits, as well as
outpatient benefits, regardless of whether the affiliated
                                        3


providers directly provide the healthcare services associated with the covered
benefits. To the extent that enrollees require more care than is anticipated,
aggregate capitation rates may be insufficient to cover the costs associated
with the treatment of enrollees. If revenue is insufficient to cover costs, our
operating results could be adversely affected. As a result, our success will
depend in large part on the effective management of health care costs. Pricing
pressures may have a material adverse effect on our operating results. Changes
in health care practices, inflation, new technologies, and numerous other
factors affecting the delivery and cost of health care are beyond our control
and may adversely affect our operating results.

THE DEVELOPMENT OF MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEMS MAY INVOLVE SIGNIFICANT TIME
AND EXPENSE.

     Our management information systems are important components of the business
and are becoming a more significant factor in our ability to remain competitive.
We already possess a physician billing and collection system. We are
participating in the development of an integrated management information system.
To date, we have not experienced any systematic glitch or significant setback
related to the functioning of our present management information system or to
the development of our new system. The development and implementation of such
systems involve the risk of unanticipated delay and expense, which could have an
adverse impact on our operations.

EXPOSURE TO PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY AND THE HIGH COST OF LIABILITY INSURANCE
COULD ADVERSELY EFFECT OUR FINANCIAL OPERATION.

     In recent years, physicians, hospitals and other providers in the health
care industry have become subject to an increasing number of lawsuits alleging
medical malpractice and related legal theories. Many of these lawsuits involve
large claims and substantial defense costs. We maintain professional liability
insurance coverage, on a claims basis, in an amount of $1.0 million per claim
and $3.0 million in the aggregate for each physician and errors and omissions
coverage of $1.0 million per claim and $3.0 million in the aggregate. Those
amounts exceed the requirements as mandated by the state of Florida but which
may not be adequate to protect our assets.

THE LOSS OF A SIGNIFICANT CONTRACT WITH HUMANA WOULD MATERIALLY EFFECT OUR
OPERATIONS.

     We have one year renewable agreements with Humana to provide healthcare
services to members in certain healthcare networks established or managed by
Humana. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2001, approximately 96% of our
revenue was obtained from these agreements. These agreements may be terminated
in the event we participate in activities Humana reasonably believes may
adversely effect the health or welfare of any member or other material breach.
Failure to maintain these agreements, or successfully develop additional sources
of revenue could adversely effect our financial condition.

OUR INDUSTRY IS ALREADY VERY COMPETITIVE; INCREASED COMPETITION COULD ADVERSELY
AFFECT OUR REVENUES.

     The health care industry is highly competitive and subject to continual
changes in the method in which services are provided and the manner in which
health care providers are selected and compensated. Companies in other health
care industry segments, some of which have financial and other resources greater
than we do, may become competitors in providing similar services. Our principal
competitors include Continucare, Florida Health Choice and Primary Care
Specialists. Our strength in comparison with our competitors is our knowledge,
understanding and experience in managed care risks, particularly with Medicare.
We may not be able to continue to compete effectively in this industry.
Additional competitors may enter our markets and this competition may have an
adverse effect on our revenues.

WE ARE DEPENDENT UPON OUR KEY MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL FOR OUR FUTURE SUCCESS.

     Our success depends to a significant extent on the continued contributions
of our key management, including our chairman, president and chief executive
officer, Fred Sternberg, and Debra Finnel, our chief operating officer and vice
president. We have no insurance policies for our executive officers. The loss of
Mr. Sternberg or Ms. Finnel or other key personnel could have a material adverse
effect on our financial

                                        4


condition, results of operations and plans for future development. While we have
employment contracts with Mr. Sternberg and Ms. Finnel, we compete with other
companies for executive talent and there can be no assurance that highly
qualified executives would be readily available.

THE HEALTH CARE INDUSTRY IS HIGHLY REGULATED AND OUR FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH LAWS
OR REGULATIONS, OR A DETERMINATION THAT IN THE PAST WE HAVE FAILED TO COMPLY
WITH LAWS OR REGULATIONS, COULD HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

     The health care services that we and our affiliated professionals provide
are subject to extensive federal, state and local laws and regulations governing
various matters such as the licensing and certification of our facilities and
personnel, the conduct of our operations, our billing and coding policies and
practices, our policies and practices with regard to patient privacy and
confidentiality, and prohibitions on payments for the referral of business and
self-referrals. If we fail to comply with these laws, or a determination is made
that in the past we have failed to comply with these laws, our financial
condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. Changes to
health care laws or regulations may restrict our existing operations, limit the
expansion of our business or impose additional compliance requirements. These
changes, if effected, could have the effect of reducing our opportunities or
continued growth and imposing additional compliance costs on us that may not be
recoverable through price increases.

     Federal anti-kickback laws and regulations prohibit certain offers,
payments or receipts of remuneration in return for referring Medicaid or other
government-sponsored health care program patients or patient care opportunities
or purchasing, leasing, ordering, arranging for or recommending any service or
item for which payment may be made by a government-sponsored health care
program. In addition, federal physician self-referral legislation, known as the
Stark law, prohibits Medicare or Medicaid payments for certain services
furnished by a physician who has a financial relationship with various
physician-owned or physician-interested entities. These laws are broadly worded
and, in the case of the anti-kickback law, have been broadly interpreted by
federal courts, and potentially subject many business arrangements to government
investigation and prosecution, which can be costly and time consuming.
Violations of these laws are punishable by monetary fines, civil and criminal
penalties, exclusion from participation in government-sponsored health care
programs and forfeiture of amounts collected in violation of such laws, which
could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations. Florida
also has anti-kickback and self-referral laws, imposing substantial penalties
for violations.

LIMITATIONS OF OR REDUCTION IN REIMBURSEMENT AMOUNTS OR RATES BY
GOVERNMENT-SPONSORED HEALTHCARE PROGRAMS COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

     As of December 31, 2001 approximately 95% of our revenues were derived from
reimbursements by various government-sponsored health care programs. These
government programs, as well as private insurers, have taken and may continue to
take steps to control the cost, use and delivery of health care services. The
following events could result in an adverse effect on our financial condition
and results of operations:

     - reductions in or limitations of reimbursement amounts or rates under
       programs,

     - reductions in funding of programs,

     - elimination of coverage for certain individuals or treatments under
       programs, which may be implemented as a result of increasing budgetary
       and cost containment pressures on the health care industry, or

     - new federal or state legislation reducing funding and reimbursements.

WE HAVE ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS WHICH MAY MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO REPLACE OR
REMOVE OUR CURRENT MANAGEMENT.

     Our Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of up to 10,000,000
shares of preferred stock with such rights and preferences as may be determined
from time to time by the Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors may, without
shareholder approval, issue preferred stock with dividends, liquidation,
conversion,
                                        5


voting or other rights which could adversely affect the voting power or other
rights of the holders of our common stock. The ability of our board to issue
preferred stock may prevent or frustrate shareholder attempts to replace or
remove current management.

DUE TO THE SUBSTANTIAL NUMBER OF OUR SHARES THAT WILL BE ELIGIBLE FOR SALE IN
THE NEAR FUTURE, THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK COULD FALL AS A RESULT OF
SALES OF A LARGE NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK IN THE MARKET, OR THE PRICE
COULD REMAIN LOWER BECAUSE OF THE PERCEPTION THAT SUCH SALES MAY OCCUR.


     These factors could also make it more difficult for us to raise funds
through future offerings of our common stock. As of May 2, 2002, there were
32,084,649 shares of our common stock outstanding. All of which will be freely
tradable without restriction with the exception that approximately 5,500,000
shares, which are owned by certain of our officers, directors, affiliates and
third parties, may be sold publicly at any time subject to the volume and other
restrictions under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933;


     In addition, as of December 31, 2001, approximately 7,380,400 shares of our
common stock were reserved for issuance upon the exercise of warrants and
options which have been previously granted.

OUR COMMON STOCK HAS EXPERIENCED IN THE PAST, AND IS EXPECTED TO EXPERIENCE IN
THE FUTURE, SIGNIFICANT PRICE AND VOLUME VOLATILITY, WHICH SUBSTANTIALLY
INCREASES THE RISK OF LOSS TO PERSONS OWNING COMMON STOCK.

     Because of the limited trading market for our common stock, and because of
the possible price volatility, you may not be able to sell your shares of common
stock when you desire to do so. The inability to sell your shares in a rapidly
declining market may substantially increase your risk of loss because of such
illiquidity and because the price for our common stock may suffer greater
declines because of its price volatility.

OUR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS HAVE BEEN PREPARED ASSUMING THAT WE WILL CONTINUE AS A
GOING CONCERN.

     The auditors' reports on our 2001 and 2000 financial statements state that
certain matters "raise substantial doubt about the company's ability to continue
as a going concern." We continue to explore the possibility of raising funds
through available sources which include equity and debt markets. In the event we
are unable to generate sufficient revenues to maintain operations we cannot be
certain that the company will be successful at raising the additional funds
needed.

                           FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

     The discussion in this Prospectus regarding our business and operations
includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1996. Such statements consist of any
statement other than a recitation of historical fact and can be identified by
the use of forward-looking terminology such as "may," "expect," "anticipate,"
"estimate" or "continue" or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or
comparable terminology. The reader is cautioned that all forward-looking
statements are speculative, and there are certain risks and uncertainties that
could cause actual events or results to differ from those referred to in such
forward-looking statements. This disclosure highlights some of the important
risks regarding our business. The risks included should not be assumed to be the
only things that could affect future performance. Additional risks and
uncertainties include the potential loss of contractual relationships,
fluctuations in the volume of procedures performed by our facilities and
physicians, changes in the reimbursement rates for those services as well as
uncertainty about the ability to collect the appropriate fees for services
provided by us.

          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS
                           AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

INTRODUCTION


     We had revenues of $131.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2001,
compared to $119.1 million in the prior year. Operating expenses for those same
periods were $129.3 million and $117.5 million, respectively. We had net income
of $1.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 compared to net income of
$4.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. Excluding nonrecurring gains
and losses, net income for the year ended December 31, 2001 was $1.6 million,
compared to $908,000 in the prior year, an improvement of 76.9%. In 2001,
nonrecurring gains and losses consisted of a write-down of accounts receivable
from a closed medical practice of $775,000 and a gain on settlement of
litigation of $177,000, and in 2000 consisted of gains on settlement of
litigation of $4.0 million.



     During 2001, in an effort to diversify our revenue base and ultimately
increase shareholder value, we implemented our pharmacy division (MetcareRx),
began the process of filing for our own HMO license and continued the
development of our clinical laboratory. In pursuing this expansion and
diversification, we incurred losses related to these operations of approximately
$2.7 million, including an allocation of corporate overhead. It is expected that
these operations, in total, will achieve profitability by the third quarter of
2002.



     Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA),
exclusive of nonrecurring items, were $3.2 million and $2.3 million for the
years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively an improvement of 39.1%. In
addition, we increased our net worth by $7.8 million in 2001 to $8.7 million at
December 31, 2001 and increased our working capital by $5.6 million in 2001 to
$5.1 million at December 31, 2001.


REVENUES


     Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2001 increased $12.4 million
(10.4%) over the prior year from $119.1 million to $131.5 million. PSN revenues,
the core of our business, also increased 10.4%, from $114.9 million to $126.9
million, due primarily to the following factors; funding increases from
revisions to the Balanced Budget Act of approximating $5.0 million, opening new
medical offices in Belle Glade and Boca Raton totaling $5.4 million and
increased membership in our Daytona market.



     Revenues for 2001 included approximately $3.1 million from Metcare Rx,
which began operations in the Daytona market in June 2001, New York in July
2001, and Maryland in October 2001. Management believes that with the proper
capitalization, MetcareRx will eventually account for a significant percentage
of our overall revenues as it continues to expand in its existing market and
enter other markets. Pharmacy sales to the PSN of approximately $296,000 have
been eliminated in consolidation. In addition, revenues for 2001 included
$563,000 from its clinical laboratory (Metlabs), as compared to revenues of only
$82,000 in the prior year.


     The overall increase in revenues was partially offset by a decrease from
the closure of a medical practice, which reported revenues of $1.3 million in
2000, compared to only $345,000 in 2001. Revenues also decreased approximately
$970,000 in 2001, due to a reduction in one-time revenue and revenue from
discontinued and other non-PSN operations from 2000 to 2001.

EXPENSES

     Operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2001 increased 10.0%
over the prior year, in line with the 10.4% increase in revenue. Direct medical
costs, the largest component of expense, represent certain costs associated with
providing services of the PSN operation including direct medical payments to
physician providers, hospitals and ancillaries on a capitated or fee for service
basis. For the year ended December 31, 2001, these costs represented 89.0% of
PSN revenue, which is referred to as the Medical Loss Ratio ("MLR"), a
significant improvement over the prior year MLR of 95.1%. Overall, despite a
10.4% increase in

                                        9



PSN revenues, direct medical costs in 2001 increased only 3.4%, from $109.2
million to $112.9 million. This improvement is due to our improved utilization
efforts and initiatives including our newly implemented hospitalist program, the
June start-up of our pharmacy division in the Daytona market and improved terms
in our specialty contracts. We expect to continue this trend with the recently
announced Oncology and Partners In Quality (PIQ) programs, which are designed to
reduce costs while improving patient care.


     Cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2001 totaled $2.3 million and
represents the cost of the pharmaceuticals sold by MetcareRx. The pharmacy
division had a gross profit percentage for 2001 of 26%.


     Salaries and benefits for the year increased 82.8% over 2000, from $4.1
million to $7.4 million. A number of new operations were opened in late 2000 and
2001 as we continued to implement our business plan. These new operations
accounted for $2.7 million of the $3.3 million increase in payroll related
costs. Three of these new operations (Port Orange, Ormond Beach and Everglades),
totaling $1.2 million in payroll costs were opened February 2001 and operated as
medical centers for our PSN operations. In July 2001, a fourth new medical
center was opened in Boca Raton, incurring $172,000 in payroll costs for the
year. Metlabs, acquired October 2000, accounted for $320,000 of the increase in
payroll expenses while MetcareRx accounted for $959,000 of incremental payroll
costs in its Florida, New York and Maryland facilities. We believe we have the
necessary management in place in both MetcareRx and Metlabs to support the
revenue growth we anticipate in 2002 and beyond. In addition, in late 2000 and
early 2001, we recognized the need to reinforce our management team, hiring
three new senior managers that represented approximately $432,000 in incremental
payroll costs for 2001. Salary increases, increases in medical insurance
premiums and a bolstering of our staffing throughout the Company accounted for
the balance of the increase, which was partially offset by an $89,000
incremental decrease resulting from the closure of a medical practice.


     Depreciation and amortization for the year ended December 31, 2001 totaled
$870,000, an increase of $204,000 over the prior year. Amortization of goodwill
accounted for $101,000 of the increase, due to the acquisition of Metlabs and
Medical Practices. Depreciation on fixed assets acquired in 2001 accounted for
the balance of the increase.

     Bad debt expense decreased $335,000 in 2001 as compared with the prior
year. The decrease resulted from the decline in revenues on the closed medical
practice as the corresponding bad debt expense for this practice decreased
$527,000 from 2000 to 2001. Additional reserves on accounts receivable from
discontinued operations account for the net balance.

     Rent and leases for the year ended December 31, 2001 totaled $962,000, a
$307,000 (47.0%) increase over the prior year. The aforementioned new operations
accounted for a majority ($268,000) of the increase, with the balance resulting
from annual increases in rent in our corporate and medical offices.


     Consulting expenses increased $952,000 in 2001, from $323,000 in 2000 to
nearly $1.3 million in 2001. Of the increase, $321,000 was incurred in
connection with investment banking and advisory services and $111,000 was spent
in the development of our HMO, part of our long-term goal to diversify our
revenue base. An additional $86,000 was incurred in our Hospitalist and
Utilization/Quality Assurance/Management programs, which are designed to lower
direct medical costs while improving patient care. Also, as mentioned above,
during 2001 we implemented our pharmacy division, opened four new medical
practices and expanded our clinical laboratory, which accounted for an
additional $213,000 in incremental consulting expenses. Lastly, in conjunction
with the cancellation of the Pharmacy Management and Preferred Provider
Agreements with a pharmacy consultant, we entered into a one-year software
agreement with the consultant, accounting for $175,000 in expense during 2001.



     General and administrative expenses increased from $1.9 million in 2000 to
$3.2 million in 2001, an increase of $1.3 million or 71.6%. New locations
accounted for approximately $1.5 million in incremental general and
administrative expenses, which was partially offset by the savings of $275,000,
resulting from the closure of a medical practice and a $171,000 decrease in
billing and collection fees from 2000 to 2001 resulting from the renegotiation
and eventual cancellation of our contract with an outside billing company. In
addition, legal, accounting and other related costs incurred as a result of
regulatory filings accounted for $163,000 of the


                                        10


increase while insurance costs increased $89,000 due to an overall increase in
premiums and the addition of new medical offices.


     Other income and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2001 included a
write down of accounts receivable from a closed medical practice of $775,000 and
a gain on settlement of litigation of $177,000 as compared to gains on
settlement of litigation recorded in 2000 of approximately $4.0 million.
Interest and penalty expense decreased by approximately $121,000 for the year,
from $768,000 to $647,000 due to the decrease in the average amount of
interest-bearing debt carried by us in 2001 as compared to 2000.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


     In the year ended December 31, 2001, we had EBITDA of $2.7 million, which
was used to fund current operations. In addition, we raised approximately $6.0
million in debt and equity and were able to settle prior obligations at terms
favorable to us. As a result, working capital increased by $5.6 million from
December 31, 2000 to December 31, 2001 and shareholders' equity improved by $7.8
million. However, we have sustained substantial negative cash flows from
operations in 2001 primarily as a result of our diversification of our revenue
base, including the pharmacy and clinical laboratory operations. Although we
believe we will become cash flow positive from operations in 2002, there can be
no assurance that this will occur. In the absence of achieving positive cash
flows from operations or obtaining additional debt or equity financing, we may
have difficulty meeting current and long-term obligations. The auditor's report
on our financial statement states that certain matters raise substantial doubt
about our ability to continue as a going concern. To address these concerns, we
continue to pursue debt and/or equity financing.



     Subsequent to year-end, we issued 500,000 shares to accredited investors,
in connection with private placements, resulting in proceeds of $500,000 that
were used for working capital. Additionally, we borrowed $1,700,000 on
short-term notes payable of which $1,200,000 is due June 6, 2002 and $500,000 is
due June 21, 2002 and $625,000 in long-term notes payable, with varying interest
rates ranging from 5% to 24% and beneficial conversion features. Certain notes
also provide for issuance of 65,000 warrants in the aggregate and are
collateralized by all our assets. The proceeds from these transactions were used
for working capital. Such offerings were to accredited investors pursuant to
Section 4(2) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934.



     In view of these matters, realization of a major portion of the assets in
the accompanying balance sheet is dependent upon our continued operations which
in turn is dependent upon our ability to meet our financial obligations.
Management believes that actions presently being taken, as described in the
preceding paragraph, provide the opportunity for us to continue as a going
concern.



     The primary source of our liquidity is derived from payments from our
full-risk contracts with an HMO. In March 2002, two investors, on our behalf,
funded $1,000,000 as collateral for a letter of credit in favor of the HMO. The
letter of credit was required by our contract with the HMO and enabled us to
favorably renegotiate certain terms of the contract. We agreed to purchase the
collateral over ten months at an effective rate of 24% per annum.



     At December 31, 2001 we had a recorded liability for unpaid payroll taxes
and related interest and penalties of approximately $2.1 million. Effective,
April 2001, we negotiated an installment plan with the Internal Revenue Service
(IRS) whereby we will make monthly installments ranging from $50,000 to $100,000
until the liability is retired (see Audited Financials).

                                    BUSINESS

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

  INTRODUCTION


     Metropolitan Health Networks, Inc. (the "Company," "Metcare," "we," or
"us") was incorporated in the State of Florida in January 1996. In 2000, we
implemented our new strategic plan, operating as a Provider Service Network
(PSN), specializing in managed care risk contracting. Our ability to control our
Network has produced favorable medical loss ratios, allowing us to successfully
tap into the trillion dollar healthcare market. Through its Network, we provide
care to over 25,000 Medicare+Choice patients, 7,000 commercial HMO patients and
approximately 13,000 fee-for-service patients aligned with various health plans.


     The primary focus of the PSN division in 2001 was establishing the network
and infrastructure along with creating the application necessary to become a
Health Maintenance Organization. Many opportunities have been augmented by
current legislation and a political environment that has demonstrated support
for the Medicare+Choice program. An example of this support is the current
additional funding that has been proposed to begin in 2003, along with bonuses
for health plans that are willing to establish a presence in underserved
markets. Metcare's business plan is modeled to take full advantage of the new
direction of the Medicare+Choice program with the initial underserved market of
the Treasure Coast of Florida (Martin, St. Lucie and Okeechobee Counties).


     Responding to rapid increases in pharmacy spending, in June of 2001 we
formed Metcare Rx, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary, to control costs and to
reduce prescription drug expenditures that are forecasted to increase by over
100% in the next decade. An increasing number of health plans with low-cost
co-pays for drug coverage, direct-to-consumer advertising, and newer, better
therapies requiring high-cost branded products all drive up the cost of pharmacy
benefits. In an effort to reduce these costs, we have negotiated agreements
allowing us to directly negotiate contracts for the purchase, filling and
delivery of prescriptions. Assuming that we can successfully implement this
agreement throughout our Network, we believe we can achieve better management
and control to provide significant cost savings and incremental revenues. With
the use of the software technology included in this system, the physician is
provided with a preferred formulary resulting in reduced costs to both the
patient and us.



     For the year ended December 31, 2001, revenues increased 10.4% to $131.5
million from $119.1 million with net income, excluding nonrecurring gains and
losses, of $1.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 compared to
$908,000 for the prior year, an increase of 76.9% for the year. We improved
shareholder value by increasing our net worth $7.8 million in 2001 to $8.7
million at December 31, 2001, and by increasing our working capital $5.6 million
in 2001 from a negative $528,000 as of December 31, 2000. Operationally,
exclusive of nonrecurring gains and losses, our EBITDA was $3.2 million in 2001
as compared to $2.3 million in 2000, an increase of 39%.


  INDUSTRY


     A recent study from the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS)
projects spending for healthcare in the United States will increase from $1.2
trillion in 1999 to over $2 trillion by 2006, or 15.9% of the Gross Domestic
Product. Healthcare costs per person are expected to rise from $3,759 to $7,100
in 2006. Pharmacy expenditures were approximately $126 billion in 2000, over
$150 billion in 2001 and are expected to double over the next decade. A number
of factors are at work affecting the patient, healthcare provider and payor
relationship. Managed care plans that have traditionally competed on price are
beginning to increase premiums to be more in line with their costs. Medical
costs traditionally increased due to inflation and the relative high cost of new
medical technologies. The Balanced Budget Act of 1997 constrained healthcare
spending in both Medicare and Medicaid reducing payments to hospitals,
physicians and managed care organizations. In December 2000, portions of the
Balanced Budget Act of 1997 were revised in response to major surpluses created
by previous cuts. New minimum payment criteria were established for the
Medicare+Choice program enhancing payments to Managed Care Organizations (MCO)
more than $5 billion over the next several years. In 2001, we received
approximately $5 million in incremental revenues


                                        13



based upon the new minimum payment criteria and expects to receive an additional
increase in revenues of over $5 million due to increases in Medicare
reimbursements for managed care patients. In addition current legislation has
demonstrated support for the Medicare+Choice program for additional funding
starting in 2003, along with bonuses for health plans that are willing to
establish a presence in underserved markets. Our business plan is modeled to
take full advantage of the new direction of the Medicare+Choice Program with
initial markets located in underserved areas.



     The United States Congress and many state legislatures routinely consider
proposals to reform or modify the healthcare system, including measures that
would control healthcare spending, convert all or a portion of government
reimbursement programs to managed care arrangements and reduce spending for
Medicare, Medicaid and state health programs. These measures can affect a
healthcare company's cost of doing business and contractual relationships. While
we do not foresee nor do we know of any pending legislation, there can be no
assurance that such legislation, programs or other regulatory changes will not
have a material adverse effect on us. Our profitability may also be adversely
affected by cost containment decisions of third party payors and other payment
factors over which we have no control.


  BUSINESS STRATEGY OVERVIEW


     We are a healthcare company that provides turnkey services to managed care
companies on a full risk basis and pharmacy management on behalf of physicians.
We are moving rapidly to expand our revenue base through additional managed care
contracts, establishing an HMO in Florida, and expanding Metcare Rx.



     We have developed an infrastructure of management expertise in the fields
of:


     - Disease Management -- a method to manage the costs and care of high-risk
       patients and produce better patient care.

     - Partners In Quality -- a review of overall patient care measured against
       best medical practice patterns.

     - Utilization Management -- a daily review of statistical data created by
       encounters, referrals, hospital admissions and nursing home information.

     - Hospitalist Program -- a method to improve quality of patient care by
       providing a team approach of creating trust between the physician and the
       PSN and eliminating the need to evaluate referrals and prior
       authorizations.


     This expertise allows us to provide a service and manage the risk that
health insurance companies cannot provide on an efficient and economic level.
Health insurance companies are typically structured as marketing entities to
sell their products on a broad scale. Due to mounting pressures from the
industry, MCO's have altered their strategy, returning to the traditional model
of selling insurance and transferring the risk to the PSN's. Under such
arrangements, MCO's receive premiums from the CMS and commercial groups and pass
a significant percentage of the premium on to a third party such as us, to
provide covered benefits to patients, including pharmacy and other enhanced
services. After all medical expenses are paid; any surplus or deficit remains
with the PSN. When managed properly, accepting this risk can create significant
surpluses. Under our model, the physicians maintain their independence but are
aligned with a professional staff to assist in providing cost effective health
care, which in turn helps maximize profits for us and the physicians.
Furthermore, to limit our exposure, we have secured reinsurance (stop-loss
coverage). Our PSN business model is based on educating, motivating and
assembling physicians in groups that are prepared to assume managed care risk.
We envision expanding our network of physicians to provide our members
healthcare services on an efficient and cost effective basis through strategic
alliances with insurance companies and other healthcare providers on a statewide
basis. We also have as our objective to develop an HMO division to operate in
targeted Medicare markets including underserved areas. We believe that managing
the risk and not the Physician is the right prescription for the new Millennium.


                                        14



     We have established three segments to manage our anticipated growth:


     - Managed Care (PSN and HMO)

     - Pharmacy (Metcare Rx)

     - Clinical Laboratory (Metlabs)


     Currently the largest, the Managed Care division, includes the PSN and,
once established, the HMO. The Managed Care division will continue to be our
focal point. The HMO will be established after an application is filed with the
State of Florida in the first half of 2002. MetcareRx, Inc. should expand in
2002 as we continue to open our clinic-based pharmacies.


  MANAGED CARE


     The original Full Risk Agreement was signed in 1998 with Humana Medical
Plan, Inc., (HMO) an insurance company, to provide network management services.
We provide services to patients through a network of primary care physicians,
specialists, hospitals and ancillary facilities. These providers have contracted
to provide services to our patients by agreeing to certain fee schedules and
care requirements. The original South Florida contract was renewed in exchange
for providing additional coverage in Dade, Broward and Palm Beach Counties. For
providing these services, Humana pays us a majority of the Medicare+Choice
premiums they derive from these managed care patients.


     A new Full Risk contract for Volusia and Flagler counties (Daytona Market)
was implemented on January 1, 2000. This agreement has been amended as of March
1, 2002 and we expect this amendment to have a positive impact on our future
profitability and cash flow.

     Our agreements with Humana are for three years and renew automatically for
additional one-year terms unless terminated for cause or on 180-days prior
notice. Under these agreements, we are responsible for the provision of all
covered benefits for the patient covered under the contracted Humana plan. Under
the Agreement, Humana is obligated to pay us for covered services according to
an agreed upon payment schedule, based on the amount Humana receives from its
payor source. If revenue is insufficient to cover cost, our operating results
could be adversely affected.


     Under these HMO agreements, we, through our affiliated providers, are
responsible for the provision of all covered benefits. While responsible for all
medical expenses for each covered life, we have limited our exposure by
obtaining reinsurance/stop-loss coverage. Additionally, we have capitated high
volume specialties, fixing our cost on a per member per month (PMPM) basis. Low
volume providers remain at a discounted fee-for-service basis. A change in
healthcare legislation, inflation, major epidemics, natural disasters and other
factors affecting the delivery and cost of healthcare are beyond our control and
may adversely affect our operating results.



     For the two years ended December 31, 2001, approximately 96% of our
revenues were from risk contracts with MCO's. In conjunction with our new
business strategy, we are pursuing opportunities to add additional payor sources
while continuing to expand our existing business relationships to provide
additional services through the Network.



     Under our model, the physicians maintain their independence but are aligned
with a professional staff to assist in providing cost effective quality
medicine. Each primary care physician provides direct patient services as a
primary care doctor including referrals to specialists, hospital admissions and
referrals to diagnostic services and rehab. As part of our Network, we own
several practices that have been fully integrated into our PSN model.



     We enhance administrative operations of our physician practices by
providing management functions, such as payor contract negotiations,
credentialing assistance, financial reporting, risk management services and the
operation of integrated billing and collection systems. We believe that we offer
the physicians increased negotiating power associated with managing their
practice and fewer administrative burdens, which allows the physician to focus
on providing care to patients.


                                        15



     We also assist the physicians in obtaining managed care contracts. We
believe that our experience in negotiating and managing risk contracts enhances
our ability to market the services of our network physicians to managed care
payors and to negotiate favorable terms from such payors. Our staff also
performs quality assurance and utilization management by providing detailed
reports under each contract on behalf of our affiliated physicians.


     We also use the Internet to help process referral claims between Network
primary care physicians and specialists. This process helps reduce paperwork in
the physician's office as well as provide a more efficient method for the
patient in our Network. Our utilization management team communicates with the
physicians on a daily basis to provide overall management of the patient.

 HMO


     Our strategy is to increase enrollment by adding new payor relationships
and new providers to the existing network and by expanding the network into new
geographic areas where the penetration of managed healthcare is low. We believe
that we will be able to develop new payor and provider relationships due to our
ability to manage the cost of health care without sacrificing quality.



     While not competing with our growing and improving relationship with Humana
under our current contracts, we must acknowledge the changes within the managed
care industry and position ourself ahead of the curve. The managed care industry
continues to consolidate and redefine itself, and while many find the current
environment volatile, we have found it resplendent with opportunities.


 PHARMACY


     We have recruited a group of veteran pharmacy executives to manage the
pharmacy division. These executives have owned and operated multiple pharmacy
companies reflective of the wide range of managed care pharmaceutical services
that Metcare Rx offers.



     Metcare Rx is strategically focused on servicing healthcare companies with
"pharmacy risk" with a goal of offering cost containment and quality service.
Our clients include various health care providers that are at-risk for pharmacy
costs. Our current operations serve a variety of at risk MCO's including medical
groups and clinics, managed care health plans, (HMO's, PPO's etc.), HIV clinics
and long-term care facilities. Metcare Rx offers all of these MCO's a one-stop
solution that is customized to each client to meet their need to control drug
costs while preserving quality. We provide an unparalleled continuum of pharmacy
care including effective specialty pharmacy services, strategically located
ambulatory pharmacies, convenient home delivery, meaningful drug utilization
evaluations and complex pharmaceutical managed care.



     The marketing plan stresses our flexibility and broad range of abilities.
We can tailor our services to meet the specific needs of our clients. We have
determined that "specialty pharmacy" offers an opportunity for extensive growth.
For example, the specialty pharmacy service can be offered on a stand-alone
basis or be bundled with our total pharmacy management solution to provide a
one-stop, comprehensive approach to managed care pharmacy. Management has the
expertise necessary to offer an extensive range of services, which
differentiates their offering from the competition that typically offers more
rigid, narrowly defined service with little or no risk sharing characteristics.
The first of these specialty drug areas will be HIV patients. We, with our
experience in this field, have developed a program that will enhance clinical
and financial outcomes.



     Our management's influence over the prescription writing process enables us
to increase our market share, which in turn creates significant buying power
with our drug suppliers. This purchasing leverage stems from various Company
strategies, including:


     - Collaborative design of effective drug formulary in consultation with the
       client MCO's key physicians, Medical Director and Pharmacy and
       Therapeutic Committee;

     - Active education of member physicians about the client's drug formulary
       decisions and rationale;

     - Focus on serving healthcare organizations that are at risk for pharmacy
       costs;
                                        16


     - Effective Drug Utilization Evaluations ("DUE's");

     - Increased patient convenience and compliance through physician office
       dispensing, ambulatory pharmacies and home delivery of medications and;

     - Automation through software and use of the Internet;

     - Expertise in specialty drug areas such as "HIV."


     These strategies help us influence the prescription process and create an
ability to shift the market share of our preferred drugs at an unprecedented
level.


 PHARMACY COST INFLATION


     Our management sees five key factors that will cause pharmacy costs to keep
increasing in the coming years:


     - An annual expenditure increase of over 14%

     - A doubling of the rate of new drugs introduced

     - An aging population

     - Aggressive drug company marketing

     - Educated patient requests for drugs

     Prescription drug expenditure growth now outpaces other categories of
health care spending. In fact, prescription drug expenditures are projected to
climb to over 12% of all personal health expenditures. In terms of dollar
volume, the last five years have shown double-digit growth with cost increases
of over 14% in 1999 and 2000. Higher drug prices will likely account for only
one-fifth of this growth. According to IMS Health 59% of the rise in drug costs
in 2000 was due to increased use of existing products, 27% to new products and
only 14% to higher prices.

     New drugs are entering the market at an accelerating pace, primarily due to
a robust new drug pipeline and developments in the FDA approval process. In
1998, 56 new drugs were approved for the use in the U.S. compared to an average
of 23 new drugs per year in the preceding decade. Not only are more drugs
entering the market, but also they are being introduced at higher prices. New
drugs released after 1992 accounted for only 17% of total utilization, but
accounted for over 30% of total costs.

     One of the most prominent drivers of pharmacy cost is the aging population.
Long-term care and other health care services for older adults represent a
substantial share of total health care spending. Nursing home and home health
care accounted for over 10% of personal health expenditures. In terms of the
pharmaceutical market, prescription utilization for persons aged over 75 far
outpaces utilization for any other group.

     Another factor causing pharmacy cost inflation is increased use of
preventative drugs. With the advent of managed care and closer attention to
medical cost, preventative medicine has become increasingly popular as a means
of cost containment. Pharmaceutical drugs are no exception, and are used as
preventative measure in medicine. With increases in prescriptions written, the
market should exhibit overall cost inflation.

 COMPETITION


     The healthcare industry is highly competitive and is subject to continuing
changes in the provision of services and the selection and compensation of
providers. We compete with national, regional and local companies in providing
our services. Excluding individual physicians and small medical groups, many of
our competitors are larger and better capitalized and may have greater
experience in providing healthcare management services and may have longer
established relationships with buyers of such services.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

  FRED STERNBERG


     In January 2000 we entered into an employment agreement, subsequently
amended, with Fred Sternberg, our President, Chief Executive Officer and a
director. The term of the agreement is for five years from the effective date.
The annual salary under the Agreement is $150,000. Effective April 1, 2001 the
salary was increased to $250,000 per year. Mr. Sternberg agreed to waive the
bonus provisions and is eligible to receive a discretionary bonus. Additionally,
Mr. Sternberg was granted options to purchase 300,000 shares of Common Stock at
$0.30 per share and options to purchase 360,000 shares of Common stock at $0.50
per share upon the signing of the Agreement. Additional longevity options were
granted at the rate of 25,000 options per year of employment at a price of $1.00
per share. The Agreement also provides for an additional 700,000 options at
$0.75 per share vesting on various dates over the life of the Contract.



     The Agreement also provides, among other things, for (i) participation in
any profit-sharing or retirement plan and in other employee benefits applicable
to our employees and executives; (ii) an automobile allowance of $800 per month
and fringe benefits commensurate with the duties and responsibilities of Mr.
Sternberg and (iii) benefits in the event of death or disability. The Agreement
also contains certain non-disclosure and non-competition provisions.



     Under the terms of the Agreement, we may terminate the employment of Mr.
Sternberg either with or without cause. If we without good cause terminate the
Agreement, we would be obligated to continue to pay Mr. Sternberg's salary and
any current and future bonuses that would have been earned under the agreement.
Mr. Sternberg would also be entitled to all stock options earned or not yet
earned through the full term of the Agreement.


                                        22


  DEBRA FINNEL


     In January 2001 we entered into an employment agreement with Debra Finnel,
Chief Operating Officer. The term of the agreement is three years and calls for
an annual salary of $225,000, increasing to $250,000 on July 1, 2001. Ms. Finnel
is also eligible to receive a discretionary bonus and has been granted options
to purchase 300,000 shares of Common Stock at $1.00 per share with vesting over
five years. The Agreement also calls for an automobile allowance of $1,500 per
month and fringe benefits commensurate with Ms. Finnel's responsibilities as
well as certain non-compete provisions.


CONSULTING AGREEMENTS

     Effective February 29, 2000 Mr. Guillama resigned as President, CEO and as
a Director of the Company. Mr. Guillama had entered a consulting agreement for
one year. As part of his termination agreement he received 200,000 options at an
average per share price of approximately $1.00, which shall expire within thirty
(30) months from February 29, 2000.

INCENTIVE AND NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION PLAN

     The Board had previously adopted an Employee Stock Option Plan in 1996.
However, no options were granted under this plan and accordingly, we decided to
replace this plan with the 2001 Stock Option Plan.

  THE STOCK OPTION PLAN GENERALLY

     The Board originally adopted the Plan on March 12, 2001. The Plan will
terminate on June 1, 2011. Under the Plan, the Board or the Compensation
Committee may grant stock incentives to key individuals performing services for
our company, including employees, officers, eligible directors, consultants and
agents. Awards under the Plan may be in the form of incentive stock options and
nonqualified stock options.

  SHARES AVAILABLE FOR THE PLAN

     We presently have 2,000,000 shares of common stock reserved for issuance
under the Plan. The number of shares underlying awards made to any one
participant in a fiscal year may not exceed 100,000 shares. The number of shares
that can be issued and the number of shares subject to outstanding options may
be adjusted in the event of a stock split, stock dividends, recapitalization or
other similar event affecting the number of shares of our outstanding common
stock.

  PLAN ADMINISTRATION

     The Board or the Compensation Committee will administer the Plan. Subject
to the specific provisions of the Plan, the Committee determines award
eligibility, timing and the type, amount and terms of the awards. The Committee
also interprets the Plan, establishes rules and regulations under the Plan and
makes all other determinations necessary or advisable for the Plan's
administration.

     Options under the Plan may be either incentive stock options, as defined
under the tax laws, or nonqualified stock options. The per share exercise price
may not be less than the fair market value of our common stock on the date the
option is granted. The Compensation Committee may specify any period of time
following the date of grant during which options are exercisable, so long as the
exercise period is not more than 10 years. Incentive stock options are subject
to additional limitations relating to such things as employment status, minimum
exercise price, length of exercise period, maximum value of the stock underlying
the options and a required holding period for stock received upon exercise of
the option. Only nonqualified options may be granted to individuals who are not
our employees.

     Upon exercise, the option holder may pay the exercise price in several
ways. He or she can pay: (1) in cash; (2) by delivering previously owned
Metropolitan common stock with a fair market value equal to the exercise price;
(3) by directing us to withhold shares of common stock with a fair market value
equal to the exercise price; or (4) by a combination of these methods.

                                        23


  EXPIRATION OF OPTIONS

     Generally, options granted under the Plan expire on the date determined by
the Committee at the time of the grant, subject to earlier expiration as
specified in the award agreement if the holder terminates employment prior to
that date. IRS rules require that incentive stock options expire no later than
three months after the termination of employment for any reason other than death
or disability, or one year after termination of employment by reason of death or
disability, in either case subject to the normal expiration date of the option.
In no event may an option be exercised after its expiration date. Any unvested
portion of an option will expire immediately upon termination of employment.

  OUTSTANDING OPTIONS

     We cannot determine the number of shares that may be acquired under stock
options that may be awarded under the Plan to participants. There are no stock
appreciation rights under the Plan.

  TRANSFERABILITY

     Generally, an option may not be sold, assigned or otherwise transferred
during its holder's lifetime, except by will or the laws of descent and
distribution.

  TAX CONSEQUENCES

     The following is a summary, based on current law, of some significant
federal income tax consequences of awards under the Plan. Participants are
advised to consult with their own tax advisor regarding the federal, state and
local tax consequences of the grant and exercise of an option.

     Participants in the Plan do not recognize taxable income by reason of the
grant or vesting of an option, and we do not receive a tax deduction by reason
of either event. At exercise, the federal tax consequences vary depending on
whether the award is an incentive stock option or nonqualified stock option.

  INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS

     Upon exercise of an incentive stock option, its holder does not recognize
taxable income, and we do not receive a tax deduction. However, the excess of
the fair market value of our common stock on the date of exercise over the
exercise price is an adjustment that increases alternative minimum taxable
income, the base upon which alternative minimum tax is computed.

     If the shares purchased upon the exercise of an incentive stock option are
sold at a gain within two years from the date of grant, or within one year after
the option is exercised, then the difference, with certain adjustments, between
the fair market value of the stock at the date of exercise and the exercise
price will be considered ordinary income. Any additional gain will be treated as
a capital gain. If the shares are sold at a gain after they have been held at
least one year and more than two years after the grant date, any gain will be
treated as a long-term capital gain. Any loss recognized upon a taxable
disposition of the shares generally would be characterized as a capital loss.

  NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTIONS


     Upon exercise of a nonqualified stock option, its holder recognizes
ordinary income in an amount equal to the difference between the fair market
value of our common stock at the time of exercise and the exercise price.
Generally, we are entitled to a corresponding tax deduction for compensation
income recognized by the holder. Upon the subsequent sale of the shares acquired
in the exercise, the holder will recognize a short-term or long-term capital
gain or loss, depending on the length of time he or she has held the shares.


  PLAN AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

     The Plan will terminate on June 1, 2011. The Board may amend or terminate
the Plan at any time. An amendment is subject to shareholder approval if it
increases the number of shares available for issuance under

                                        24


the Plan, permits the grant of an incentive stock option at an exercise price
less than that set forth in the Plan, changes the class of individuals eligible
for participation in the Plan, or permits the grant of awards after the Plan
termination date.

                              CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS

     In July 1998, we executed a consulting agreement with Sternco, Inc., an
affiliate of Fred Sternberg, that provided for commissions on any acquisition
for which Sternco was the introducing party or materially contributed to such
acquisition and monthly consulting fees of $10,000 per month. We also agreed to
reimburse Sternco for mobile phone and pager expenses. The consulting agreement
was terminated on January 1, 2000 upon the execution of Mr. Sternberg's
employment agreement.

     In November 2000, we loaned Debra Finnel $30,000. The loan has been
recorded as an employee advance and will be repaid in 2001 from time to time
from payroll deductions. There is no formal schedule of payments.


     Atlas Pearlman, P.A., our counsel, has been issued (i) options to purchase
100,000 shares of our common stock exercisable at $1.00 per share; and (ii)
336,000 shares of common stock for services rendered since December 2001.

ITEM 12.  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS


     We previously had a consulting agreement with Sternco, Inc., an affiliate
of Fred Sternberg that provided for commissions on any acquisition for which
Sternco is or was the introducing party or materially contributed to such
acquisition. The consulting agreement was terminated upon the execution of Mr.

     At December 31, 2001, amounts owed to us by officers totaled approximately
$104,000. These amounts are expected to be repaid in 2002.



     All future transactions between us and any officer, director or 5%
shareholder will be on terms no less favorable than could be obtained from
independent third parties and will be approved by a majority of our independent
disinterested directors. We believe that all prior affiliated transactions
except those identified above were made on terms no less favorable to us than
available from unaffiliated parties. Loans, if any, made by us to any officer,
director or 5% stockholder, will only be made for bona fide business purposes.


                                        26


                           DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES


     At May 2, 2002, we have authorized 80,000,000 shares of par value $0.001
common stock, with 32,084,649 shares issued and outstanding. Additionally, we
have authorized 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, with 5,000 shares issued
and outstanding.


COMMON STOCK

     The holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of
record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders. There is no cumulative
voting with respect to the election of directors, with the result that the
holders of more than 50% of the shares voted for the election of directors can
elect all of the directors. The holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive
dividends when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors out of funds
legally available therefor. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or
winding up, the holders of Common Stock are entitled to share ratably in all
assets remaining available for distribution to them after payment of liabilities
and after provision has been made for each class of stock, if any, having
preference over the Common Stock. Holders of shares of Common Stock, as such,
have no conversion, preemptive or other subscription rights, and there are no
redemption provisions applicable to Common Stock. All of the outstanding shares
of Common Stock are, and the shares of Common Stock offered hereby, will be duly
authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

PREFERRED STOCK

     We are authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock with such
designation, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by
the Board of Directors. Accordingly, the Board of Directors is empowered,
without stockholder approval, to issue Preferred Stock with dividend,
liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights that could adversely affect the
voting power or other rights of the holders of the Common Stock. In the event of
issuance, the Preferred Stock could be utilized, under certain circumstances, as
a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control.

     We have designated a Series A class of preferred stock and a Series B class
of preferred stock. A summary of their material terms, rights and preferences
are the following:

  SERIES A

     We have designated 30,000 shares of our preferred stock as Series A
preferred stock, par value $.001. There are currently 5,000 Series A preferred
shares issued and outstanding. Each share of Series A preferred stock has a
stated value of $100 and pays dividends equal to 10% of the stated value per
annum. At December 31, 2000, the aggregate and per share amounts of cumulative
dividend arrearages were approximately $166,667 and $33.40.

     Each share of Series A preferred stock is convertible into shares of common
stock at the option of the holder at the lesser of 85% of (1) the average
closing bid price of the common stock for the ten trading days immediately
preceding the conversion or (2) $6.00. We have the right to deny conversion of
the Series A preferred stock, at which time the holder shall be entitled to
receive additional cumulative dividends at 5% per annum in addition to the
initial dividend rate of 10% per annum.

     In addition, we have the right, exercisable at any time upon 10 trading
days notice to the holders of the Series A preferred stock given at any time
after the expiration of two years after the date of issuance to redeem all or
any portion of the shares of Series A preferred stock which have not previously
been converted or redeemed, at a price equal to 105% of the product of (1) the
number of shares of preferred stock then held by the holder, and (2) the stated
value.

     In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company,
holders of the Series A preferred stock are entitled to receive a liquidating
distribution before any distribution may be made to holders of our common stock
and other Series of our preferred stock.

     The Series A preferred share holders have no voting rights, except as
provided under Florida law.

                                        27


  SERIES B

     We have designated 7,000 shares of our preferred stock as Series B
preferred stock, with a stated value of $1,000 per share. During the year ended
June 30, 1998, 1,200 shares of Series B preferred stock were issued, however
there are currently no Series B shares outstanding. Holders of the Series B
preferred stock are entitled to receive, whether declared or not, cumulative
dividends equal to 5% per annum. Each share of Series B preferred stock is
convertible into such number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of common
stock as is determined by dividing the stated value by the conversion price. The
conversion price shall be the lesser of the market price, as defined or $4.00.
From September 1998 to October 1999, all of our outstanding Series B preferred
shares were converted into 3,597,305 shares of our common stock at various
prices. The Series B preferred shares do not contain voting rights, except as
provided under Florida law.

TRANSFER AGENT

     The Transfer Agent for our shares of Common Stock is Florida Atlantic Stock
Transfer, Tamarac, Florida.

                            SELLING SECURITY HOLDERS

     This prospectus relates to sales of our common stock by various parties
listed below. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares by
the selling shareholders. The selling shareholders may resell the shares they

     On March 6, 2002, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with
Laurus Master Fund, Ltd. where we raised $1,200,000 through the issuance to
Laurus Master Fund, Ltd. of convertible notes in the principal amount of
$1,200,000 and warrants to purchase 65,000 shares of common stock, exercisable

in the event we serve the holder of the convertible notes with a notice that the
holder is permitted to convert a certain amount of the principal and interest
due under the convertible notes, then, and in that event, at the holder's demand
up to the amount stated in the notice. The conversion price is the lower of (i)
103% of the average of the 3 lowest closing prices for the common stock on the
principal market or exchange where the common stock is listed or traded, for the
thirty trading days prior to, but not including, the closing date of the

subject to a floor of $1.00 per share, except in the case of a conversion as a
result of an event of default, in which case the floor price does not apply. The
conversion price is subject to standard adjustment provisions. All of our
obligations to Laurus Master Fund, Ltd. as described above are secured by a
security interest in certain of our accounts, as further set forth in a Security
Agreement executed by us and Laurus Master Fund, Ltd. concurrently with the
execution of the Securities Purchase Agreement. We paid Laurus Capital
Management, L.L.C. a fee in connection with the transaction in the amount of

MANNER OF SALE

     The shares of common stock owned, or which may be acquired, by the selling
shareholders may be offered and sold by means of this prospectus from time to
time as market conditions permit in the over-the-counter market, or otherwise,
at prices and terms then prevailing or at prices related to the then-current
market price, or in negotiated transactions. These shares may be sold by one or
more of the following methods, without limitation:

     - a block trade in which a broker or dealer so engaged will attempt to sell
       the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as
       principal to facilitate the transaction;

     - purchases by a broker or dealer as principal and resale by such broker or
       dealer for its account pursuant to this prospectus;

     - ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker
       solicits purchasers; and

     - face-to-face transactions between sellers and purchasers without a
       broker/dealer.

     In effecting sales, brokers or dealers engaged by the selling shareholders
may arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate. Such brokers or dealers
may receive commissions or discounts from selling shareholders in amounts to be
negotiated.

     The selling shareholders and any broker/dealers who act in connection with
the sale of the shares hereunder may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the
meaning of section 2(11) of the Securities Acts of 1933, and any commissions
received by them and profit on any resale of the shares as principal might be
deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. We
have agreed to indemnify the selling shareholders, and any securities
broker/dealers who may be deemed to be underwriters against certain liabilities,
including liabilities under the Securities Act as underwriters or otherwise.

     We have advised the selling shareholders that they and any securities
broker/dealers or others who may be deemed to be statutory underwriters will be
subject to the prospectus delivery requirements under the Securities Act. We
have also advised each selling shareholder that in the event of a "distribution"
of the shares owned by the selling shareholder, such selling shareholder, any
"affiliated purchasers", and any broker/dealer or other person who participates
in such distribution, may be subject to Rule 102 under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 until their participation in that distribution is completed. Rule
102 makes it unlawful for any person who is participating in a distribution to
bid for or purchase stock of the same class as is the subject of the
distribution. A "distribution" is defined in Rule 102 as an offering of
securities "that is distinguished from ordinary trading transactions by the
magnitude of the offering and the presence of special selling efforts and
selling methods". We have also advised the selling shareholders that Rule 101
under the 1934 Act prohibits any "stabilizing bid" or "stabilizing purchase" for
the purpose of pegging, fixing or stabilizing the price of the common stock in
connection with this offering.

     We do not intend to distribute or deliver the prospectus by means other
than by hand or mail.

                        SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE


     As of May 2, 2002, we have 32,084,649 shares of common stock issued and
outstanding. This does not include shares that may be issued upon exercise of
options or warrants.


     We cannot predict the effect, if any, that market sales of common stock or
the availability of these shares for sale will have on the market price of our
shares from time to time. Nevertheless, the possibility that substantial amounts
of common stock may be sold in the public market could negatively damage and
affect market prices for our common stock and could damage our ability to raise
capital through the sale of our equity securities.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Metropolitan Health Networks, Inc. and Subsidiaries
West Palm Beach, Florida

     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Metropolitan
Health Networks, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity
(deficiency in assets), and cash flows for each of the two years in the period
ended December 31, 2001. These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.

     We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Metropolitan
Health Networks, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001, and the results
of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years in the period
ended December 31, 2001, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.

     The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2, the Company
has incurred substantial negative cash flows from operations since inception. In
the absence of maintaining profitable operations and achieving positive cash
flows from operations or obtaining additional debt or equity financing, the
Company may have difficulty meeting current and long term obligations. These
factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern. Management's plans are also discussed in Note 2. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and
classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of
liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company can not continue in
existence.

              METROPOLITAN HEALTH NETWORKS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION

     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Metropolitan
Health Networks, Inc. and all subsidiaries. The consolidated group is referred
to, collectively, as the Company. All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

  ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS ACTIVITY

     The Company was incorporated in January 1996, under the laws of the State
of Florida for the purpose of acquiring and operating health care related
businesses. The Company operates principally in South and Central Florida. The
Company and certain of the wholly owned general medical practices operate under
agreements with a national health maintenance organization (HMO). Commencing in
1999, the Company entered into additional agreements with the HMO in locations
where it did not have owned medical practices and in connection therewith, began
contracting with physicians to provide medical care to certain patients through
non-owned medical practices (see accounts receivable and revenue recognition).

     In October 2000, the Company acquired a clinical laboratory, which operates
in South Florida. In June 2001 the Company opened a pharmacy to service its
patient base in Central Florida. Commencing in the third quarter of 2001, the
Company expanded its pharmacy division into New York and Maryland.

  SEGMENT REPORTING

     The Company applies Financial Accounting Standards Boards ("FASB")
statement No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information". The Company has considered its operations and has determined that
in 2000 it operated in one segment and in 2001 it operated in three operating
segments for purposes of presenting financial information and evaluating
performance. As such, the accompanying financial statements present information
in a format that is consistent with the financial information used by management
for internal use.

  CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

     The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original
maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. From time to time,
the Company maintains cash balances with financial institutions in excess of
federally insured limits.

  INVENTORY

     Inventories consist principally of prescription drugs that are stated at
the lower of cost or market determined by the first-in, first-out method.

  PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

     Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Expenditures for major
betterments and additions are charged to the asset accounts, while replacements,
maintenance and repairs which do not extend the lives of the respective assets
are charged to expense currently.

     Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the
sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying
amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between the fair
value and carrying value of the asset.

NOTE 1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

  DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

     Depreciation of property and equipment is computed using the straight-line
method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Amortization of leasehold
improvements and property under capital leases is computed on a straight-line
basis over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the term
of the lease. The range of useful lives is as follows:


                                                            
Machinery and equipment.....................................   5 - 7 years
Computer and office equipment, including items under capital   5 - 7 years
  lease.....................................................
Furniture and fixtures......................................   5 - 7 years
Auto equipment..............................................       5 years
Leasehold improvements......................................       5 years


  USE OF ESTIMATES

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for
the periods presented. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     In the health care environment, it is almost always at least reasonably
possible that estimates could change in the near term as a result of one or more
future confirming events. With regard to revenues, expenses and receivables
arising from agreements with the HMO, the Company estimates amounts it believes
will ultimately be realizable through the use of judgments and assumptions about
future decisions. It is reasonably possible that some or all of these estimates
could change in the near term by an amount that could be material to the
financial statements.

     Revenues from the HMO accounted for approximately 96% of the Company's
total revenues for 2001 and 2000. Programs with the HMO are sometimes complex
and at times subject to different interpretation by the Company and the HMO. The
2001 gross profit under agreements with the HMO was increased by approximately
$1.9 million due to the favorable settlement during 2001 with the HMO relating
to certain costs estimated as of December 31, 2000.

     Direct medical expenses are based in part upon estimates of claims incurred
but not reported (IBNR) and estimates of retroactive adjustments to be applied
by the HMO. The IBNR estimates are made by the HMO utilizing actuarial methods
and are continually evaluated by management of the Company based upon its
specific claims experience. The estimates of retroactive adjustments to be
applied by the HMO are based upon current agreements with the HMO to modify
certain amounts previously charged to the Company. Management believes its
estimates of IBNR claims and estimates of retroactive adjustments are
reasonable, however, it is reasonably possible the Company's estimate of these
costs could change in the near term, and those changes may be material.

     From time to time, the Company is charged for certain medical expenses for
which, under its contract with the HMO, the Company believes it is not liable.
In connection therewith, the Company is contesting certain costs aggregating
approximately $11 million. Management's estimate of recovery on these
contestations is determined based upon its judgment and its consideration of
several factors including the nature of the contestations, historical recovery
rates and other qualitative factors. Accordingly, net amount due from the HMO
has been increased by approximately $2 million, which represents an estimated
recovery of 20% of 2000

and 2001 contestations outstanding at December 31, 2001. It is reasonably
possible the Company's estimate of these recoveries could change in the near
term, and those changes may be material.

     Non-HMO accounts receivable, aggregating approximately $7,568,000 at
December 31, 2001 relate principally to medical services provided on a fee for
service basis, and are reduced by amounts estimated to be uncollectible
(approximately $4,748,000). Management's estimate of uncollectible amounts is
based upon its analysis of historical collections and other qualitative factors,
however it is reasonable possible the company's estimate of uncollectible
amounts could change in the near term, and those changes may be material.

  FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures about
Fair Value of Financial Instruments" requires that the Company disclose
estimated fair values for its financial instruments. The following methods and
assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair values of each class
of financial instruments disclosed herein:

          Cash and Cash Equivalents -- The carrying amount approximates fair
     value because of the short maturity of those instruments.

          Line of Credit Facilities, Capital Lease Obligations, Long-term
     Debt -- The fair value of line of credit facilities, capital lease
     obligations and long-term debt are estimated using discounted cash flows
     analyses based on the Company's incremental borrowing rates for similar
     types of borrowing arrangements. At December 31, 2001, the fair values
     approximate the carrying values.

  NET INCOME PER SHARE

     The following table sets forth the computations of basic earnings per share
and diluted earnings per share:

  ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND REVENUE RECOGNITION

     The Company recognizes revenues, net of contractual allowances, as medical
services are provided to patients. These services are typically billed to
patients, Medicare, Medicaid, health maintenance organizations and insurance
companies. The Company provides an allowance for uncollectible amounts and for
contractual adjustments relating to the difference between standard charges and
agreed upon rates paid by certain third party payors.

     The Company is a party to certain managed care contracts and provides
medical care to its patients through owned and non-owned medical practices.
Accordingly, revenues under these contracts are reported as Provider Service
Network (PSN) revenues, and the cost of provider services under these contracts
are not included as a deduction to net revenues of the Company but are reported
as an operating expense. In connection with its PSN operations, the Company is
exposed to losses to the extent of its share (100% for Medicare Part B and 50%
for Medicare Part A) of deficits, if any, on its owned and non-owned managed
medical practices.

  ADVANCES FROM HMO

     Advances represent amounts advanced from the HMO to the Company. These
advances are due on demand and are being repaid via offsets to future revenues
earned from the HMO.

  GOODWILL

     In connection with its acquisitions of physician and ancillary practices,
the Company has recorded goodwill of $3,867,971 and $3,783,692 as of December
31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, which is the excess of the purchase price over
the fair value of the net assets acquired. The goodwill is attributable to the
general reputation of these businesses in the communities they serve, the
collective experience of the management and other employees, relationships
between the physicians and their patients, and other similar intangible assets.
The Company evaluates the underlying facts and circumstances related to each
acquisition in establishing amortization periods for the related goodwill. The
goodwill related to current and prior year's acquisitions is being amortized on
a straight-line basis over 10 years.

     The Company continuously evaluates whether events have occurred or
circumstances exist which impact the recoverability of the carrying value of
long-lived assets and related goodwill, pursuant to Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of."

NOTE 1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

  CAPITAL LEASE SETTLEMENT

     During the year ended December 31, 2000, a vendor/lessee to a former
subsidiary disposed of during 1999 repossessed equipment from the former
subsidiary in partial satisfaction of certain company obligations. In connection
with this satisfaction, the Company recorded other income of approximately
$572,000.

  INCOME TAXES

     The Company accounts for income taxes according to Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109, which requires a liability approach to calculating
deferred income taxes. Under this method, the Company records deferred taxes
based on temporary differences between the tax bases of the Company's assets and
liabilities and their financial reporting bases. A valuation allowance is
established when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax
assets will not be realized.

  NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued two
new pronouncements: Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No 141,
"Business Combinations," and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets." SFAS No. 141 is effective as follows: a) use of the pooling-
of-interest method is prohibited for business combinations initiated after June
30, 2001; and b) the provisions of SFAS 141 apply to all business combinations
accounted for by the purchase method that are completed after June 30, 2001
(that is, the date of the acquisition is July 2001 or later). There are also
transition provisions that apply to business combinations completed before July
1, 2001, that were accounted for by the purchase method. SFAS No. 142 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 for all goodwill
and other intangible assets recognized in an entity's statement of financial
position at that date, regardless of when those assets were initially
recognized. SFAS No. 142 specifies that goodwill and some intangible assets will
no longer be amortized but instead will be subject to periodic impairment
testing. The Company is currently assessing the impact of SFAS Nos. 141 and 142
which is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial
statements, however, future amortization of goodwill that relate to future
acquisitions will be affected by these statements.

     In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations." In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144,
"Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 143
requires entities to record the fair value of a liability for an asset
retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred and a corresponding
increase in the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. Subsequently,
the asset retirement cost should be allocated to expense using a systematic and
rational method over its useful life. SFAS No. 143 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2002. SFAS No. 144 addresses financial accounting and
reporting for the impairment of long-lived assets and for long-lived assets to
be disposed of. It supersedes, with exceptions, SFAS No 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of" and
is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company is
currently assessing the impact of SFAS No. 143 and No. 144 which are not
expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

NOTE 2.  GOING CONCERN

     The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which
contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern. However, the
Company has incurred substantial negative cash flows from operations in 2001
partly as a result of the Company's diversification of its revenue base,
including the pharmacy and clinical laboratory operations. Although the Company
believes it will become cash flow positive from operations in 2002, there can be
no assurance that this will occur. In the absence of achieving positive cash
flows from operations or obtaining additional debt or equity financing, the
Company may have difficulty meeting current and long-term obligations, and may
be forced to discontinue a business segment or overall operations.

     To address these concerns, the Company continues to pursue the sale of its
common stock through private placement offerings. In the first quarter of 2002,
the Company issued 500,000 shares of common stock in connection with private
placement offerings, resulting in net proceeds of $500,000. Additionally, the
Company borrowed $1,700,000 on short-term notes payable and $625,000 in
long-term notes payable, with varying interest rates and maturities. The
proceeds from these transactions were used for working capital.

     In view of these matters, realization of a major portion of the assets in
the accompanying balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the
Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company's ability to meet its
financial obligations. Management believes that actions presently being taken,
as described in the preceding paragraph, provide the opportunity for the Company
to continue as a going concern, however, there is no assurance this will occur.

NOTE 3.  ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSALS

 ALPHA CLINICAL PURCHASE

     During October 1999, the Company entered into a management agreement with
Alpha Clinical Laboratory (Alpha) to act as Alpha's management company for a fee
of 10% of Alpha's collections. Concurrently, the Company entered into an
unconditional and irrevocable option to purchase or designate a third party to
purchase at any time prior to October 31, 2000 all of the outstanding common
stock of Alpha. Subsequent to October 1999, the Company began advancing Alpha
funds to support its operations. At December 31, 1999 the Company had advanced
approximately $210,000 to Alpha. On May 12, 2000 these advances, plus additional
advances in 2000 were converted into a promissory note in the amount of
$512,000.

     Effective October 1, 2000, the Company acquired Alpha for approximately
$1,035,000. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. Accordingly, the
purchase price was allocated to the net assets acquired based upon their fair
market values. In connection with this acquisition, approximately $1,099,000 was
allocated to goodwill as follows:

  THE PRACTICES

     Effective April 1, 1998, the Company acquired two physician practices (the
Practices) from Primedica Healthcare, Inc. (Primedica) for $2,431,123. The
purchase price consisted of a 7.5% note payable of $3,500,000, which was to be
amortized over 20 years, with a balloon payment due on April 1, 2003 (the
Promissory Note). The Company discounted this Promissory Note $1,068,877 based
upon the Company's incremental borrowing rate at April 1, 1998 (16%). The
acquisition was accounted for as a purchase, and accordingly, the purchase price
was allocated to the net assets acquired based on their estimated fair market
values. As a result of this acquisition, $1,588,349 was allocated to goodwill.

     During 1999, the Company defaulted on the Promissory Note and a judgement
was entered against the Company for $4,745,370. Accordingly, the Promissory Note
was increased to $4,745,370, and a loss of $2,206,448 was recorded in the
consolidated statement of operations for the year ended June 30, 1999.

     Subsequent to June 30, 1999, the Company and Primedica reached a settlement
whereby the Company agreed to pay Primedica $1,513,235, subject to a provision
stating that if timely payments were not received by Primedica, the Company
would be liable for $4,745,364. On October 26, 1999, the Company was notified by
Primedica that it was in default of this settlement agreement.

     In August 2000, the Company and Primedica reached a final settlement
agreement providing for full settlement of all Primedica judgments upon a
payment of $350,000. In connection therewith, the Company recorded "other
income" of approximately $3,400,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000.

NOTE 5.  EQUITY LINE OF CREDIT FACILITY

     On March 30, 2001 the Company entered into an equity line of credit
agreement with a British Virgin Islands corporation (Purchaser), in order to
establish a possible source of funding for the Company's planned operations. The
equity line of credit agreement establishes what is sometimes also referred to
as an equity drawdown facility (Equity Facility).

     Under the Equity Facility, the Purchaser agreed to provide the Company with
up to $12,000,000 of funding during the twenty-four (24) month period following
the date of an effective registration statement. During this twenty-four (24)
month period, the Company may request a drawdown under the Equity Facility by
selling shares of its common stock to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser would be
obligated to purchase the shares. The Company may request a drawdown once every
27 trading days, although the Company was under no obligation to request any
drawdowns under the Equity Facility.

     As consideration for extending the equity line of credit, the Company
granted Purchaser warrants to purchase up to the number of shares equaling
$720,000 based upon the average closing price of the Company's common stock for
the 15 trading days prior to the closing of this agreement (Base Price). The
warrant entitles the Purchaser to purchase such shares for 120% of the Base
Price at any time prior to March 30, 2004. As partial consideration for
placement agent's services in connection with this offering, the Company granted
the placement agent warrants to purchase up to the number of shares equaling
$840,000 based upon the Base Price, for 120% of the Base Price, any time prior
to March 30, 2004.

     During 2001, the Company received approximately $74,000 under the Equity
Facility and on March 5, 2002, the Company terminated the Equity Facility.

NOTE 6.  UNEARNED REVENUE

     On August 22, 2000, the Company entered into a Pharmacy Services Agreement

years. In connection with this agreement, the Pharmacy Consultant paid the
Company $500,000, subject to return if the Company elects to cancel the Pharmacy
Agreement under certain provisions. On October 6, 2000, the Company received an
additional $500,000 in funding from the Pharmacy Consultant in connection with a
10-year exclusive preferred provider agreement. This amount was required to be
repaid, together with interest at prime plus 2%, should the Company default or
elect to cancel the Agreement. Of these amounts, approximately $132,000 and
$94,000 were recognized as revenue during the years ended December 31, 2001 and
2000, respectively.

     On June 1, 2001, the Company terminated these agreements. Under the terms
of the termination, the Company purchased assets totaling $99,000 and assumed
certain liabilities totaling $78,000 of a Daytona pharmacy servicing the
Company's patients. In addition, the Company agreed to retain the Pharmacy
Consultant for a period of one year for a prepaid amount of $300,000. Of this
amount, $125,000 is included in prepaid expenses at December 31, 2001. Total
consideration paid for the net assets and the unamortized balances on the
agreements was $1,028,000, on which the Company recognized a gain in the amount
of $68,000.

                     INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

ITEM 24.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

     The Florida Business Corporation Act (the "Corporation Act") permits the
indemnification of directors, employees, officers and agents of Florida
corporations. Our Articles of Incorporation (the "Articles") and Bylaws provide
that we shall indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent
permitted by the Corporation Act.

     The provisions of the Corporation Act that authorize indemnification do not
eliminate the duty of care of a director, and in appropriate circumstances
equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms of non-monetary relief will
remain available under Florida law. In addition, each director will continue to
be subject to liability for (a) violations of criminal laws, unless the director
had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was lawful or had no reasonable
cause to believe his conduct was unlawful, (b) deriving an improper personal
benefit from a transaction, (c) voting for or assenting to an unlawful
distribution and (d) willful misconduct or conscious disregard for our best
interests in a proceeding by or in the right of a shareholder. The statute does
not affect a director's responsibilities under any other law, such as the
Federal securities laws.

     The effect of the foregoing is to require us to indemnify our officers and
directors for any claim arising against such persons in their official
capacities if such person acted in good faith and in a manner that he reasonably
believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and,
with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to
believe his conduct was unlawful.

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers or persons in control
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion
of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the act and is therefore unenforceable.

ITEM 25.  OTHER EXPENSES OF ISSUANCE AND DISTRIBUTION

     The estimated expenses payable by us in connection with the distribution of
the securities being registered are as follows:

ITEM 28.  UNDERTAKINGS

     The undersigned Registrant undertakes:

          (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
     made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

             (i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the
        Securities Act of 1933;

             (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
        the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent
        post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
        aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth
        in the registration statement;

             (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan
        of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement
        or any material change to such information in the registration
        statement;

     Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if
the registration statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8, and the information
required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is
contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or
section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by
reference in the registration statement.

          (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
     Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed
     to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
     therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed
     to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

          (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
     any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
     termination of the offering.

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 (the "Securities Act") may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or
otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or preceding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

                                       II-8


                                   SIGNATURES

registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all
of the requirements for filing on this Pre-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Form
SB-2 and authorized this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by
the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in West Palm Beach, Florida on May
7, 2002.
