CLEARWATER, Fla.--(BW HealthWire)--June 8, 1998--Systems
Communications Inc. (OTC BB:SCMI) and its strategic alliance partner,
HMG Health Care Claims Auditing Inc., announced Monday that they
project significant recoveries from the first quarter 1998 full-scale audit of
Chrysler's pharmaceutical benefits payments, which are in excess of $100
million.

HMG is continuing to receive data tapes from Chrysler's Third Party
Administrator (TPA), Blue Cross/Blue Shield of Michigan.

Systems Communications Inc., through its strategic alliance partner,
HMG Health Care Claims Auditing Inc., of Pittsburgh, provides healthcare
data management and analysis services to Fortune 500 companies through
advanced technology and in-depth knowledge of the audit and healthcare
industries. HMG is an industry leader in the development of a variety of
specialized electronic audit and healthcare data monitoring programs
designed to help reduce the ever-increasing corporate employee
healthcare costs. HMG's President, R. Grant Kolb, said, "The strategic
alliance with SCI and the success of Chrysler's Pharmaceutical audit
included in HMG's business portfolio is a very positive step for us
corporately and for the Pittsburgh community, in general." The company
expects to sign new contracts with Chrysler due to the success of this
current audit.

James Kowalczyk, president of SCI said that: "SCI and HMG are
strategically and synergistically positioned to capture a significant position
of the multi-billion dollar healthcare industry by identifying to corporations
and institutions, where they can save substantial portions of the healthcare
costs, thereby assisting them to recover unjustly paid benefits. It is
anticipated that additional contracts will be awarded to the SCI and HMG
alliance from other Fortune 500 clients in need of prescription drug and
related audits to curb runaway healthcare costs.

Chairman of the board of SCI, Ed Salmon, stated: "The strategic alliance
with HMG will benefit both firms and will allow us to market each other's
services. By marketing HMG's and NSC's healthcare cost containment
services as a team, clients will secure two of the nation's preeminent firms
to conduct their healthcare audits to identify and recover healthcare
overpayments. The two firms have the ability to provide clients with both
qualitative and quantitative cost containment programs to ensure a
reduction in the cost of employee healthcare in the future, identification and
recovery of overpayments from as much as three years retrospectively,
and 'real time' healthcare auditing, which will allow us to concurrently
monitor claims prior to payment."

Systems Communications Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary,
National HealthCare Solutions Corp. (NSC) specialize in providing data
management and overpayment recovery to corporate, government and
institutional providers of healthcare.
