Explanation of Responses:

(1)
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, all PHAMIS Common Stock and
options for PHAMIS Common Stock were converted into .73
shares of IDX Common stock or options for IDX Common Stock (the 'Conversion
Ratio').  For example, the reporting person owned 50,000
 shares of PHAMIS Common Stock prior to the Effective Time of the Merger.  After
the conversion, the reporting person now owns
36,500 shares of IDX Common Stock (50,000 x .73 = 36,500)
(2)
Prior to the Effective Time of the Merger, the reporting person was a
shareholder and optionee of PHAMIS and all of the reporting
person's PHAMIS Common Stock and options for PHAMIS Common Stock have been
converted into IDX Common Stock and options for IDX
Common Stock.
(3)
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of 3/25/97
(the 'Merger Agreement'), between PHAMIS, Inc.
('PHAMIS') and IDX Systems Corporation ('IDX'), all options became 100% vested
and exercisable immediately prior the Merger.  The
Effective Time of the Merger was July 10, 1997 and all options became
exercisable as of that date.
(4)
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the purchase price per share of
IDX Common Stock is determined by dividing the
purchase price per share of PHAMIS Common Stock subject to the PHAMIS option by
the Conversion Ratio.  For example, the reporting
person was granted options for PHAMIS stock on 01/25/96 at a purchase price of
$24.00 ($24.00/.73 = $32.88)
- -
The reporting person originally reported 330 shares purchased under a Section
423 Plan in July 1997; however, the conversion ratio
was applied to the total shares rather than to each separate purchase causing
the final conversion share amount to be incorrect.
Therefore, an error has occurred in the final converted share amount originally
reported and there is a one share discrepancy.  The
correct number of converted shares should be 329 shares of IDX Common Stock.  It
is the intent of this amendment to modify all forms
 by this reporting person subsequent to July 18, 1997 which is the date of Form
3 filed by this reporting person.
