The Quantum Group Announces Execution of 3rd Letter of Intent in
Support of Community Health System Initiative 


WELLINGTON, Fla., Feb. 17  /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- The Quantum Group, Inc.
(OTC:QTUM) (BULLETIN BOARD: QTUM)  announced today that its subsidiary company,
Renaissance Health Systems (RHS), Inc., has executed a third Letter of Intent
to build a Community Health System (CHS) in South Florida consisting of three
counties.  This new CHS is designed specifically for the new Medicare Advantage
program in support of the Center for Medicare Services' (CMS) initiative to
provide more healthcare options to seniors.  This new area represents a total
Medicare-eligible population of over 840,000 lives.

"With the execution of this third Letter of Intent, Renaissance has been
contracted to build systems throughout Florida.  Pending final contracts in
negotiations and the continued assembling of personnel, we expect to be
generating revenues in less than 90 days," commented Noel J. Guillama,
President of The Quantum Group, Inc.  He further stated, "With our integrated
approach to healthcare services, outsourcing and technology, we feel that
Quantum is well positioned to be a one-stop solutions provider for the medical
community by creating a more effective and efficient medical delivery system."

In a meeting held with company stakeholders, Mr. Guillama explained,
"Renaissance Health Systems has developed a new model for the benefit of
patients, providers and insurers alike -- the Community Health System or CHS.
In a CHS, the patient is recognized as the true consumer of healthcare
services.  Patients are engaged to actively work along side their physician in
pursuit of their improved healthcare lifestyle.  This tandem approach to a
patient's health benefits the insurer, the physician and most importantly the
patient as it emphasizes a proactive approach to wellness."

A recent study conducted by the Center for Health Statistics, a division of the
North Carolina Division of Public Health, concluded that 11% of
hospitalizations could have been avoided with primary care intervention.

The mission of Renaissance Health Systems (RHS) is to provide quality,
proactive and cost-effective healthcare to our patients while simultaneously
improving their quality of life and lifestyle.
