ITEM 4.	CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT

     On February 2, 1999, Home Health Corporation of America, Inc. (the 
"Company") received notification from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the 
Company's independent accountant, that they were resigning as independent 
accountant for the Company.  The following information is provided in 
connection therewith:

      A. Pursuant to Item 304(a)(1) of Regulation S-K, the Company reports 
the following specific information:

        (i) Effective February 2, 1999, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP notified 
            the Company that they were resigning as the Company's independent
            accountant.

       (ii) The report of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP on the financial 
            statements for the year ended June 30, 1998 included in the 
            Company's Form 10-K/A contained an explanatory paragraph regarding 
            the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  The 
            financial statements for the year ended June 30, 1997 did not 
            contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not 
            qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or 
            accounting principles. 

      (iii) PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP's decision to resign was not 
            recommended or approved by the Board of Directors or Audit 
            Committee of the Company.

       (iv) There were no disagreements on any matter of accounting 
            principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or 
            auditing scope or procedure between the Company and 
            PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP during the two most recent fiscal 
            years or during the year-to-date period ended February 2, 1999, 
            which if not resolved to the satisfaction of  
            PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP would have caused it to make 
            reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in 
            connection with their report, except as follows: 
 
            (A) The Company was in violation of certain financial covenants 
                under its senior credit facility (the "Credit Facility") at 
                March 31, 1998.  On May 15, 1998, the Company and its lenders 
                entered into an amendment to the Credit Facility (the 
                "Amendment") that waived these violations as of March 31, 
                1998 and amended certain covenant requirements as of June 
                30, 1998.  At the time of signing the Amendment, the Company 
                determined that it did not expect to be in compliance with 
                certain of these 

                                        2

<PAGE>

                covenants starting September 30, 1998 without further 
                amendments to the covenants.  In the Amendment the lenders and 
                the Company agreed to negotiate an additional amendment to the
                Credit Facility no later than August 15, 1998 to amend the 
                financial covenant ratios for the periods after June 30, 1998.

                As a result of the Company being unable to demonstrate 
                compliance with the financial covenants under the Amendment
                for at least one year and one day after March 31, 1998 without 
                further negotiations, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP requested
                the Company change the classification of its debt outstanding 
                under the Credit Facility to a current liability at March 31, 
                1998. The Company disagreed with this accounting treatment 
                as it expected to be in compliance with its covenant
                requirements at June 30, 1998 and future periods based upon
                the status and nature of the then ongoing negotiations
                with the Company's lenders to amend the Company's covenant 
                requirements effective for those periods.  As a result,
                the Company in its March 31, 1998 Form 10-Q classified the 
                outstanding indebtedness as a long-term liability, disclosed
                the covenant violations and ongoing negotiations with its 
                lenders and further disclosed that if negotiations with its
                lenders were unsuccessful, an event of default would exist 
                and the related indebtedness could immediately become due 
                and payable.  

                On September 23, 1998, the Company and its lenders amended
                the Credit Facility to waive the Company's noncompliance
                with certain financial covenants as of June 30, 1998 and 
                amended these financial covenant requirements for future 
                periods. After this amendment, the Company was able to 
                demonstrate compliance with its covenant requirements for at
                least one year and one day from June 30, 1998 and the 
                outstanding indebtedness was classified as non-current at 
                June 30, 1998.  PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP's report on the 
                June 30, 1998 financial statements included in the Company's
                Form 10-K filed on September 24, 1998 did not include an 
                explanatory paragraph with respect to this issue. 

                Subsequently, on November 5, 1998, the Company received a
                default notice under the Credit Facility.  On December 17,
                1998, the Company refiled its Form 10-K as a Form 10-K/A to 
                comply with a request from

                                          3

<PAGE>
                the Securities and Exchange Commission for clarification of 
                certain disclosures.  At that time, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP 
                amended their report on the June 30, 1998 audited financial 
                statements to include an explanatory paragraph on the 
                Company's ability to continue as a going concern due to the 
                existence of this default.

            (B) PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP discussed the above disagreement 
                with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.
           
            (C) The Company has authorized PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to 
                respond fully to the inquiries of the successor accountant 
                concerning the subject matter of the above disagreement.

        (v) No event requiring disclosure under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of 
            Regulation S-K has occurred.

     B. In accordance with the requirements of Item 304(a)(3) of Regulation
     S-K, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP has been provided with a copy of the 
     foregoing disclosures and has provided the letter required regarding 
     their concurrence with certain statements made by the Company in this 
     Form 8-K concerning their resignation as the Company's independent 
     accountant.  This letter is attached as an exhibit to this Form 8-K.

     C. There were no events requiring disclosure under Item 304(b) of 
     Regulation S-K in connection with the resignation of 
     PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company's independent accountant.

covenants starting September 30, 1998 without further
