Coram Healthcare Corporation ("Coram") requires additional time to
complete its Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2004 as a result
of its involvement with activities relating to certain filings of voluntary
petitions under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code on August 8,
2000. Accordingly, additional time is required to gather the information
necessary for certain disclosures in Coram's Form 10-Q. Coram will file its Form
10-Q on or before Thursday August 19, 2004.

(2) Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company
Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the
registrant was required to file such report been filed? If the answer is no,
identify report(s).
/ X / Yes / / No
(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of
operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be
reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or
portion thereof?
/ X / Yes / / No
If so: attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both
narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a
reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.
Based on information currently available, management believes that the
company's provision for estimated uncollectible accounts for the three months
ended June 30, 2004 will increase to approximately $7.4 million (i.e., an
increase of approximately $3.1 million over the corresponding period in the
prior year). Management further believes that Coram will report net income for
the three months ended June 30, 2004 of approximately $2.7 million (i.e., basic
and diluted net income per common share of $0.05). The amounts discussed herein
are subject to change upon the filing of Coram's Form 10-Q.
