NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JANUARY 31, 2007

(UNAUDITED)

Note 1:

Description of Company

The Company’s business model is to become a provider of services to the healthcare industry in three complementary areas: providing healthcare services to consumers through its provider systems; providing provider support services, systems, technology solutions and management to physicians, Managed Care Organizations (MCOs), healthcare facilities and physician associations; and acquiring and developing new technologies for the healthcare delivery system.

The Company has three MCO contracts providing members to a number of the Company’s Community Health Systems (CHS) in the State of Florida. Two of the three contracts became effective in January 2007 and are full risk. The third contract, which has been effective since September 2005, has not reached the minimum threshold of 300 members, which is required to be at full risk. . The Company started providing healthcare support services by entering into full risk management agreements with three billing companies, whereby, the Company runs the operation and accepts all risk of ownership.

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and Regulation SB. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. However, in the opinion of management, they include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows. All adjustments made during the three months ended January 31, 2007, were of a normal, recurring nature. The amounts presented for the three months ended January 31, 2007, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire fiscal year. Additional information is contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB/A of the Company for the year ended October 31, 2006, which should be read in conjunction with this quarterly report.

Going Concern

The Company has limited revenues to date. Since its inception, the Company has been dependent upon the receipt of capital investment to fund its continuing activities. In addition to the normal risks associated with a new business venture, there can be no assurance that the Company’s business plan will be successfully executed. The Company’s ability to execute its business model will depend on its ability to obtain additional financing and achieve a profitable level of operations. There can be no assurance that sufficient financing will be obtained. Nor can any assurance be made that the Company will generate substantial revenues or that the business operations will prove to be profitable. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At January 31, 2007, there were no cash equivalents.

Property and Equipment

Furniture and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three to five years.

Note 2:

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – (Continued)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and the differences could be material.

Income Taxes

The Company has not recognized any future tax benefit arising from net operating loss carry forward in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 109, as the realization of this deferred tax benefit is not likely. A 100% valuation allowance has been established to offset the entire amount of the Company’s net deferred tax asset.

Goodwill

On an annual basis, management assesses the composition of the Company’s assets and liabilities, as well as the events that have occurred and the circumstances that have changed since the most recent fair value determination. If events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of goodwill below its carrying amount, goodwill will be tested for impairment. The Company will recognize an impairment loss if the carrying value of the asset exceeds the fair value determination. There was no impairment of goodwill as of January 31, 2007.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the period ended January 31, 2007 include the accounts of The Quantum Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries, Renaissance Health Systems, Inc., Quantum Medical Technologies, Inc., QMed Billing, Inc. and The Quantum Agency. The Company has entered into management agreements with three medical billing companies whereby the Company has agreed to accept full risk of operation for a fee paid by the Company to each of the medical billing companies. The financial results from these companies have been consolidated.

Revenue Recognition

The Company has entered into full risk contracts with three Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs). The Company started treating patients for one of the contracts in September 2005, but is not full risk until the HMO provides a minimum of 300 members to the Company. The threshold of 300 patients has not been received as of January 31, 2007. The Company has recorded income relating to the primary care physician’s charges for the three month period ended January 31, 2007. Medical costs associated with the revenue were equal to the revenue. The other two contracts started in January 2007 and are full risk from inception. Under a full risk contract, the Company will receive a monthly fee for each patient that chooses one of the Company’s physicians as their primary care physician. The fixed fee is based on a percentage of the premium the HMO receives. Revenue under this agreement is generally recorded in the period services are rendered at the rates then in effect, with quarterly adjustments. The direct medical costs are a combination of actual medical costs paid by the HMO plus a reserve for future medical costs incurred but not reported (IBNR).

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – (Continued)

Revenue Recognition (continued)

In June 2006, the Company entered into a management agreement with a medical billing and collection company. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company paid an amount to the billing and collection company and assumed all management responsibility and financial risk of the operation of the business. The Company has included all the revenues and expenses for this operation in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. Revenues are recorded upon the collection of billed service for their clients.

Stock Compensation

Prior to November 1, 2006, the Company had followed Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS “) No. 123 (“SFAS No. 123”), Accounting for Stock Based Compensation whereby companies may measure compensation costs for those plans using the method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (“APB No. 25”), “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” No compensation expense was recognized in accounting for options granted to employees where the exercise price of the Company’s employee stock options equaled or exceeded the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant. Stock options granted to consultants were accounted for in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS “) No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation.

Effective November 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment” which is a revision of SFAS No. 123, using the modified prospective transition method. Under this method, stock based compensation expense for the first quarter of fiscal 2007 includes compensation cost for all share-based payments modified or granted prior to , but not yet vested as of November 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123. Results for the first quarter of fiscal 2005 have not been restated.

As a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) on November 1, 2006, the Company’s net loss for the three months ended January 31, 2007 was approximately $97,900 higher than if it had continued to account for the share-based compensation under APB No. 25. No options were exercised or granted during the three month period ended January 31, 2007.

Had the compensation expense for the stock option plan been determined based on the fair value of the options at the grant date consistent with the methodology prescribed under Statement of Financial Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation,” for the three month period ended January 31, 2006, the Company’s net loss and loss earnings per share would have been affected to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

New Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 (“SAB 108”), which added Section N to Topic 1, Financial Statements, of the Staff Accounting Bulletin Series. Section N provides guidance on the consideration of the effects of prior year misstatements when quantifying current year financial statement misstatements for the purpose of materiality assessment. The SEC concluded in SAB 108 that a registrant’s materiality evaluation of an identified unadjusted error should quantify the impact of correcting all misstatements, including both the carryover and reversing effects of prior year misstatements, on the current year financial statements. If either carryover or reversing effects of prior year misstatements is material, the misstatements should be corrected in the current year. If correcting an error in the current year for prior year misstatements causes the current year to be materially misstated, the prior year financial statements should be corrected, even though such revision previously was and continues to be immaterial to the prior year financial statements. Correcting prior year financial statements for immaterial errors would not require previously filed reports to be amended. Such correction may be made the next time the registrant files the prior year financial statements. The guidance of SAB 108 should be applied in the annual financial statements covering the fiscal year ending October 31, 2007. The Company does not believe SAB 108 will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2006, the FASB issued a Staff Position 00-19-2 on issuer’s accounting for registration payment arrangements which specifies that the contingent obligation to make future payments or otherwise transfer consideration under a registration payment arrangement, whether issued as a separate agreement or included as a provision of a financial instrument or other agreement, should be separately recognized and measured in accordance with FASB Statement No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies. The guidance in this FSP amends FASB Statements No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and No. 150 Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity, and FASB Interpretation No. 45, Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, to include scope exceptions for registration payment arrangements. The Company issued registration rights with a 2% stock penalty for failure to file by specific dates in connection with certain debt which the Company believes will probably be met.

Note 3:

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, notes payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of these financial instruments.

Note 4:

Loss Per Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares for the period. The computation of diluted loss per share is similar to basic loss per share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive common shares, such as options, had been issued. Diluted loss per share is not presented as the effects would be anti-dilutive.

The Company has 1,457,239 warrants, with exercise prices ranging from $0.20 to $0.50 per share, and 1,542,240 vested options with exercise prices ranging from $0.40 to $1.50 per share, exercisable at January 31, 2007.

Accrued Payroll and Payroll Taxes

The Company owes executives earned, but unpaid compensation of $834,261. Additionally, the Company owes $134,000 in delinquent payroll taxes and penalties relating to a period prior to September 2006. All payroll taxes subsequent have been paid when due.

Note 6:

Debt

Secured Convertible Debentures

On August 29, 2006, the Company signed an agreement with a placement agent to raise $3,000,000 by selling 60 units. Each unit consists of a $50,000 8% Convertible Debenture and 151,515 shares of restricted common stock (Bridge Shares). Each note payable matures on March 31, 2007, but has been extended without penalty by 60 days by the placement agent. Principal and interest on the Secured Convertible Debentures may be converted into certain future sale of the Company’s security at a conversion price equal to 70% of the offering price. The placement agent fees are equal to 10% commission of gross proceeds, 3% of gross proceeds for unaccountable expenses, one warrant for each unit sold to purchase 15,151 shares of common stock at $0.33 per share and expenses not to exceed $25,000. The private placement includes certain registration rights which generally require that if the Bridge Shares and the conversion shares are not registered by February 28, 2007, the Company will file a registration statement by March 31, 2007. A late registration penalty of 2% of the original principal amount in common stock, based upon average of the previous five days closing price bid prices as reported on Bloomberg) if a registration is not filed by March 31, 2007. The Company is seeking to obtain an extension from the debt holders of this provision to June 30, 2007, to be consistent with units sold during December and January. The Debentures are secured by all the assets of the Company subject to the investors in the interim bridge. This private placement was ended on November 30, 2006 and 26 units were sold and a placement agent fee and reimbursement of expenses of $169,000 plus one 5-year warrant to purchase 393,946 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.33 per share, valued at $121,821 using the Black Scholes method. Under the agreement the Company is required to use its best efforts to register the underlying shares and the Bridge shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC”). In the event that a registration statement is not filed with SEC, the Company is required to pay liquidated damages in the form of additional shares of common stock of the Company, which the Company is required to use its best efforts to register. The Company analyzed the transaction and the associated embedded conversion features and determined that the criteria for bifurcating an embedded conversion feature, and measuring at fair value, as detailed in SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," were not met. Based on this finding and pursuant to EITF 00-27, "Application of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments," the Company has (i) allocated the proceeds received to the convertible instrument and the shares on a relative fair value basis, and (ii) recognized the beneficial conversion feature as a reduction to the carrying amount of the convertible debt and as additional paid-in capital. As a result, the Company allocated the proceeds from the sale of units ($1,300,000) as follows: (1) $534,975 to the convertible debt (2) $534,279 to the shares and (3) $230,746 to the beneficial conversion feature.

During December and January, the Company sold 8.5 additional units for $425,000 and issued 1,287,789 under the same terms described above except the maturity date of the convertible debt is June 30, 2007 and the Company is required to file a registration agreement by June 30, 2007. The Company allocated the proceeds from the sale of the units ($425,000) as follows: (1) $202,665 to the convertible debt (2) $140,333 to the shares and (3) $82,002 to the beneficial conversion.

Debt (continued)

Notes Payable

On November 30, 2005, the Company entered into a 13% 2-year callable loan agreement for $100,000. The terms of the loan agreement include quarterly interest payments and the loan is callable by the lender if any interest payment is not paid within 15 days of being notified by the lender that the interest payment is late. Additional compensation includes 70,000 shares of common stock. The value of the stock was determined by the closing market price on the date of the loan and is amortized over term of the loan. The agreement contains an anti-dilution provision on the additional compensation shares whereby the lender will receive additional shares to maintain a specific percentage of ownership. The Company issued an additional 8,774 shares in common stock during the quarter ended January 31, 2007. The Company also paid $6,500 in commissions to a placement agent.

On July 6, 2006, the Company signed an 8% promissory note and financing agreement for $100,000 with a lender. The terms were consistent with the Bridge Financing Agreement except, among other items, that the note matures the earlier of 80 days from the funding of the note or the second day following the closing of an aggregate of $2,000,000 of gross proceeds from a private placement. The note is unsecured. The lender and the Company have agreed to extend the loan consistent with the Interim Bridge Financing Agreement dated August 21, 2006. Under this agreement, the lender will be issued 303,030 additional shares. The proceeds from the financing were allocated between the 8% Secured Promissory note and the common stock issued based on the fair value. The Company allocated $48,387 to the Promissory Note and $51,613 to the common stock. The total value of the common stock issued was based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the loan.

On August 21, 2006 the Company signed an Interim Bridge Financing Agreement with the lead investor for $1,000,000. The Company has repaid all amounts owned under this agreement except $155,971 and the amount borrowed under the credit line portion of the agreement. On December 15, 2006, the Company and the lender agreed to extend the credit line’s maturity date until December 18, 2006, increase the credit line $56,000 until January 15, 2007 and increase the interest rate to 18% per annum. In partial consideration for the changes in credit line, the Company issued 169,697 shares of restricted common stock valued at $44,121 using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the loan, as a financing premium. The Company immediately borrowed the additional $56,000 from the increase in the credit line. On January 12, 2007, the Company and the lender agreed to extend the credit line’s maturity date to February 15, 2007 and increase the credit line by $95,000. In partial consideration for the changes in the credit line, the Company issued 287,879 shares of restricted common stock valued at $146,818 using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the loan, as a financing premium. The Company immediately borrowed $95,000. As of January 31, 2007, the outstanding balance on the credit line was $445,182.

On December 26, 2006, the Company signed an 8% promissory note for $50,000 with a lender. The note matured on the 30^th day following receipt, or January 28, 2007. The lender was issued 10,000 shares of Common Stock, valued at the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the loan, as a financing premium.

The note has not been repaid and the lender has not notified the Company of his intention to convert or notified the Company of a demand for payment.

On December 28, 2006, the Company signed an 8% promissory note for $40,000 with the Company’s placement agent, Newbridge Securities. The note matured on the 30^th day following receipt, or January 27, 2007.

In October 2003 the Company adopted a stock option plan. The purpose of the stock option plan was to increase the employees’ and non-employee directors’ proprietary interest in Quantum and to align more closely their interests with the interests of the shareholders of Quantum, as well as to enable Quantum to attract and retain the services of experienced and highly qualified employees and non-employee directors.

Options granted under this plan may either be options qualifying as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or options that do not so qualify. Any incentive option must provide for an exercise price of not less than 100% of the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of such grant, but the exercise price of any incentive option granted to an eligible employee owning more than 10% of our common stock must be at least 110% of such fair market value as determined on the date of the grant.

The term of each option and the manner in which it may be exercised is determined by the board of directors, provided that no option may be exercisable more that 10 years after the date of its grant and, in the case of an incentive option granted to an eligible employee owning more that 10% of the our common stock, no more than five years after the date of the grant. The board of directors shall determine the exercise price of non-qualified options.

The Company has reserved 5,000,000 shares of common stock under the plan. The board of directors, or a committee of the board of directors, will administer the plan including, without limitation, the selection of the persons who will be granted plan options under the plan, the type of plan options to be granted, the number of shares subject to each plan options and the plan option price.

The per share exercise price of shares granted under the plan may be adjusted in the event of certain changes in the total purchase price payable upon the exercise in full of options granted under the plan. Officers, directors, and key employees of and consultants to Quantum will be eligible to receive non-qualified options under the plan. Only officers, directors and employees of Quantum who are employed by Quantum, or by any subsidiary thereof, are eligible to receive incentive options.

A summary of options during the three months ended January 31, 2007 and 2006 is shown below:

Note 9:

Related Party Transactions

On November 1, 2002, the Company entered into an agreement with a shareholder to purchase certain intellectual property integral to the Company’s business. In exchange, the company issued a three (3) year installment note for $179,080 with an interest rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum. The price of the sale was equal to the cost the shareholder incurred to develop the property purchased. The note is payable monthly starting January 2003. The Company is in technical default as the Company has not made scheduled payments on the note. The Company is accruing interest at 18% per annum monthly on the unpaid principal balance and has classified the note as current as per the agreement. The principal balance outstanding is $130,775. The Company did not pay any interest during the three month period ended January 31, 2007 or 2006. The interest accrued is $75,395 and $53,703 at January 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

On November 14, 2005, a shareholder advanced the Company $50,000. The Company and the shareholder agreed to a 12% interest rate on the unpaid balance and 10,000 shares of common stock.

This note was due January 31, 2006 and bore an interest rate of 8% per annum payable at term of the note. Additional compensation included 15,000 shares of the Company’s common stock per month for each month the debt is outstanding.

Item 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

General

The discussion and analysis set forth below should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this quarterly report. The information presented for the three months ended January 31, 2007 and 2006, was derived from unaudited financial statements, which, in our opinion, reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation.

Forward Looking Statements

This Report on Form 10-QSB contains certain forward-looking statements. When used in this report, press releases and elsewhere by the management of the Company from time to time, the words “believes”, “anticipates”, and “expects” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements that involve certain risks and uncertainties. Additionally, certain statements contained in this discussion may be deemed forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are the following: the ability of the Company to meet its working capital and liquidity needs, economic trends for consumer advertisers, the availability of long-term credit, unanticipated changes in the U.S. and international economies, business conditions and growth in e-commerce and the timely development and acceptance of new products, the impact of competitive products and pricing, and other risks detailed from time to time in the Company’s SEC reports. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly release the results of any events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Going Concern

The Company has been building its provider networks and developing it’s Provider Systems over the last three years and has expensed material sums during that period. The Company has contracted with five MCOs for 22 counties in Florida. The Community Health Systems have been completed or near completion in all those counties. Additionally, the Company is performing medical billing services through two medical billing companies that the Company has signed full risk management contracts.

As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from its development and organization activities and has negative working capital and shareholders’ deficit. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully implement its plans to generate additional investor interest and raise additional capital, or if such plans are successfully implemented, that the Company will achieve its goals.

Furthermore, if the Company is unable to raise additional funds, it may be required to modify its growth and developmental plans, and even be forced to severely limit development operations completely.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects of the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources,” below.

Results of Operations

Three months ended January 31, 2007 and 2006

Revenues for the three months ended January 31, 2007 were $421,177 compared to $871 for the three month period ended January 31, 2006. The increase is primarily due to the addition of the billing and collection company management agreements of $340,200, which went into effect November 30, 2006. The provider network revenue represented $80,476 of the total revenue and represented a $76,605 increase from the prior year.

The operating expenses for the three months ended January 31, 2007 were $1,085,469 compared to $576,166 for the three month period ended January 31, 2006. The increase of $509,303 was primarily due to an increase of $241,540 in salaries and the amortization of deferred compensation. Non-operating costs were $1,068,987 and $26,543 for the three month periods ended January 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase of $1,042,444 was primarily to the amortization of costs associated with the convertible debt, interim bridge financing and the credit line.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At January 31, 2007, we had a working capital deficit of $3,618,180 as compared to a working capital deficit of $1,412,164 at January 31, 2006.

Cash inflow from financing activities was $707,111 for the three months ended January 31, 2007, compared to $346,475for the three months ended January 31, 2006. The increase was primarily due to the increase in debt as detailed below.

On December 18, 2006, the Company signed an agreement with a placement agent to raise $3,000,000 by selling 60 units. Each unit consists of a $50,000 8% Convertible Debenture and 151,515 shares of restricted common stock (Bridge Shares). Each note payable matures on June 30, 2007, but can be extended by 60 days by the placement agent. Principal and interest on the Secured Convertible Debentures may be converted into certain future sale of the Company’s security at a conversion price equal to 70% of the offering price. The placement agent fees are equal to 10% commission of gross proceeds, 3% of gross proceeds for unaccountable expenses, one warrant for each unit sold to purchase 15,151 shares of common stock at $0.33 per share and expenses not to exceed $25,000. The private placement includes certain registration rights which generally require that if the Bridge Shares and the conversion shares are not registered by June 30, 2007, the Company will file a registration statement by July 31, 2007. A late registration penalty of 2% of the original principal amount in common stock, based upon average of the previous five days closing price bid prices (as reported on Bloomberg) if a registration is not filed by June 30, 2007. The Debentures are secured by all the assets of the Company subject to the investors in the interim bridge and the August 29, 2006 units. This private placement was ended on March 19 and 60 units were sold ($3,000,000) and a placement agent fee and reimbursement of expenses of $390,000 plus one 5-year warrant to purchase 909,108 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.33 per share, valued at $154,848 using the Black Scholes method.

provides a minimum of 300 members to the Company. The threshold of 300 patients has not been received as of January 31, 2007. The Company has recorded income relating to the primary care physician’s charges for the three month period ended January 31, 2007. Medical costs associated with the revenue were equal to the revenue. The other two contracts started in January 2007 and are full risk from inception. Under a full risk contract, the Company will receive a monthly fee for each patient that chooses one of the Company’s physicians as their primary care physician. The fixed fee is based on a percentage of the premium the HMO receives. Revenue under this agreement is generally recorded in the period services are rendered at the rates then in effect, with quarterly adjustments. The direct medical costs are a combination of actual medical costs paid by the HMO plus a reserve for future medical costs incurred but not reported (IBNR).

As of January 2007, the Company has entered into a management agreement with three medical billing and collection companies. Under the terms of the agreements, the Company paid an amount to each billing and collection company and assumed all management responsibility and financial risk of the operation of the business. The Company has included all the revenues and expenses for this operation in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. Revenues are recorded upon the collection of billed service for their clients.

Our development plan includes the identification, negotiation with and acquisition or joint venturing of businesses and services that will allow us to provide comprehensive provider network services including medical management systems, billing and collection and other complementary services that will allow the small to medium size medical organization to provide better care, better medical outcomes and earn more profit. We expect to acquire or joint venture with candidate businesses after extensive due diligence. If the candidate business is to be acquired we expect to secure financing for the acquisition by selling common and/or preferred shares, issuing debt or notes and by leveraging the potential acquisition.

There is no assurance that we will be able to execute on our plans and, clearly, to continue our operations and to implement our current business plan, we will require significant additional long term financing. There are no assurances that such financing will be available, or if available it will be on terms acceptable to the Company. Any financing may result in significant dilution.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Item 3.

Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Our management and resources are limited. As of January 31, 2007 we had only twenty-eight full time employees, of which three are also officers and directors of the Company. The Company is a Small Cap company with limited personnel and, until the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended October 31, 2006, was a development stage company. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures for a Company of our size and simplicity. Based upon this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on the current review, management has concluded that additional personnel is required. The Company had identified the lack of personnel as an internal control deficiency which resulted in the following accounting issues and the filing of an amended 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2006 (1) the incorrect allocation of the components of the sale of units which included secured convertible debentures with a beneficial conversion feature and common stock and the resulting amortization of the corresponding costs; (2) unearned shares of common stock granted to employees incorrectly included in the outstanding common shares; and (3) the incorrect classification of accrued interest.

The Company has allocated the appropriate resources to correct this deficiency. We are in the process of adding the additional personnel to be assigned directly to financial reporting and disclosure to ensure the timely and accurate preparation of the Company’s financial reports required under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 as amended.
