ITEM 3.        SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

         UICI, MEGA and Sub I acquired beneficial ownership of the Common Stock
         upon the consummation of the merger (the "Merger") of HealthAxis.com,
         Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation ("HealthAxis"), with and into
         HealthAxis Acquisition Corp., a Pennsylvania corporation, pursuant to
         that certain Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated
         October 26, 2000 (the "Merger Agreement"). UICI, MEGA and Sub I were
         all shareholders of HealthAxis prior to the Merger. In exchange for
         each share of common stock, no par value, of HealthAxis, the
         shareholders of HealthAxis received one share of Common Stock in the
         Merger.

         In addition to the Common Stock received by UICI, MEGA and Sub I in the
         Merger, UICI beneficially owns Common Stock by virtue of its ownership
         of the HealthAxis Inc. 2% Convertible Debenture (the "Debenture") and
         the HealthAxis Inc. Stock Purchase Warrant (the "Warrant"), which are
         convertible into and may be exercise for the purchase of Common Stock,
         respectively. The Debenture is convertible into Common Stock at a
         conversion price of $9.00 per share, and the Warrant has an exercise
         price of $3.01 per share.

ITEM 4.        PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

         On January 26, 2001, the Merger was completed and each outstanding
         share of common stock, no par value, of HealthAxis was converted into
         the right to receive one share of Common Stock. As a result of the
         Merger, UICI acquired beneficial ownership of an 17,810,229 shares of
         Common Stock representing 33.8% of the Common Stock.

         On July 31, 2000, UICI entered into that certain Amended and Restated
         Voting Trust Agreement (the "Voting Trust Agreement") pursuant to which
         UICI deposited 6,433,069 shares of common stock of HealthAxis into a
         voting trust (the "Voting Trust"). Upon the completion of the Merger
         each of those securities were converted into the right to receive one
         share of Common Stock. UICI has the sole power to dispose of, or to
         direct the disposition of the Common Stock held in the Voting Trust. As
         a result of such power, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities
         Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), UICI is deemed
         to have beneficial ownership of the Common Stock held by the Voting
         Trust.

         $1,666,666.67 which may be converted into Common Stock at a conversion
         price of $9.00 per share, subject to adjustment, as described in
         greater detail in Item 6 below.

         On January 29, 2001 UICI received the Warrant for the purchase of
         12,291 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $3.01 per share,
         subject to adjustment, as described in greater detail in Item 6 below.

         UICI from time to time intends to review its investment in the Issuer
         on the basis of various factors, including the Issuer's business,
         financial condition, results of operations and prospects, general
         economic and industry conditions, the securities markets in general and
         those for the Issuer's securities in particular, as well as other
         developments and other investment opportunities. Based on such review,
         UICI will take such actions in the future as UICI may deem appropriate
         in light of the circumstances existing from time to time. If the UICI
         believes that further investment in the Issuer is attractive, whether
         because of the market price of the Issuer's securities or otherwise, it
         may acquire additional securities of the Issuer either in the open
         market or in privately negotiated transactions. Similarly, depending on
         market and other factors, UICI may determine to dispose of some or all
         of the Common Stock currently owned by UICI or otherwise acquired by
         UICI either in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions.
         UICI may also convert the Debenture into Common Stock or exercise the
         Warrant for the purchase of Common Stock.

         Except as set forth above or as may be exercised in accordance with the
         terms of the Shareholders' Agreement described below in Item 6, UICI
         has not currently formulated any definitive plans or proposals which
         relate to or would result in: (a) the acquisition by any person of
         additional securities of the Issuer or the disposition of securities of
         the Issuer, (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction involving the
         Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (c) a sale or transfer of a material
         amount of the assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (d) any
         change in the present board of directors or management of the Issuer,
         (e) any material change in the issuer's capitalization or dividend
         policy, (f) any other material change in the Issuer's business or
         corporate structure, (g) any change in the Issuer's charter or bylaws
         or other instruments corresponding thereto or other action which may
         impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person, (h)
         causing a class of the Issuer's securities to be deregistered or
         delisted, (i) a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming
         eligible for termination of registration or (j) any action similar to
         any of those enumerated above.

ITEM 6.        CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH
               RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

         Shareholders' Agreement

         In connection with the completion of the Merger, the Issuer, UICI, and
         Michael Ashker, the former President and Chief Executive of the Issuer,
         Alvin Clemens, the Chairman of the Issuer, entered into a Shareholders'
         Agreement, dated January 26, 2001 (the "Shareholders' Agreement").
         Under the terms of the Shareholders' Agreement, the board of directors
         of the Issuer will consist of up to nine members. UICI and the Issuer
         may each independently nominate three nominees to the board, and, the
         remaining three directors will be nominated by mutual agreement of the
         Issuer (acting by the vote of a majority of the members of the board
         that were not nominated by or agreed to by UICI) and UICI. This
         provision of the Shareholders' Agreement will terminate with respect to
         UICI when UICI owns less than 20% of the Common Stock on a fully
         diluted basis.

         Subject to conditions set forth in the Shareholders' Agreement, the
         Issuer can require UICI to transfer up to 1,414,318 shares of Common
         Stock to unaffiliated third parties. A copy of the Shareholders'
         Agreement is filed as an exhibit to this Schedule 13D and is

         UICI entered into the Voting Trust Agreement which provided for the
         establishment of a trust to hold shares of HealthAxis common stock
         owned by UICI (which were converted into the right to receive shares of
         Common Stock in the Merger). The initial trustees of the Voting Trust
         are Michael Ashker, Edward W. LeBaron, Jr. and Dennis B. Maloney the
         ("Trustees"). All of the Trustees were also directors of HealthAxis,
         and Messrs. Ashker and LeBaron are directors of the Issuer. A majority
         of the trustees have the power to vote the Common Stock held by the
         Voting Trust in their discretion at all meetings of shareholders or
         pursuant to actions by unanimous consent. UICI retains dispositive
         power and the ability to receive all dividends on the Common Stock held
         in the Voting Trust.

         The Voting Trust was amended effective July 31, 2000 to read in its
         present form. Pursuant to the Voting Trust Agreement if one of the
         Trustees is no longer able to serve as a trustee, the other two
         Trustees may select by unanimous vote a new trustee from that is not
         affiliated with UICI. The Voting Trust Agreement terminates upon the

         25% of the outstanding Common Stock; and (iii) upon another person or
         group (within the meaning of Rule 13d-5 promulgated under the Exchange
         Act) owning a greater percentage of the issued and outstanding Common
         Stock on a fully diluted basis, than the percentage beneficially owned

         into an Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement dated
         January 29, 2001 (the "Registration Rights Agreement"). The
         Registration Rights Agreement provides certain registration rights to
         the parties thereto who are holders of such Common Stock issued or
         issuable upon (i) conversion of or with respect to the Debenture, (ii)

         exercises of the Warrant, and (v) issuance of any shares of Common
         Stock issued with respect to clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) as a
         result of any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, exchange
         or similar event or otherwise. The Registration Rights Agreements

         any securities into with such common stock may be changed as a result
         of merger, consolidation, recapitalization or other similar
         transaction. As a result of the Merger, the Original Registration
         Rights Agreement provides that the Issuer assumes the obligations of
         HealthAxis under the Original Registration Rights Agreement without
         taking any further action. A copy of the Original Registration Rights
         Agreement is filed as an exhibit to this Schedule 13D and is

         any time into Common Stock at a price per share equal to $9.00, subject
         to adjustment. The principal amount of the Debenture is 1,666,666.67.

         Founder's Program Voting Trust

         UICI established and sponsored the Insurdata Founder's Program pursuant
         to which UICI had granted options to purchase shares of common stock of
         Insurdata Incorporated ("Insurdata"), which were owned at the time by
         UICI, to certain employees of Insurdata. Insurdata was a wholly owned
         Texas corporation subsidiary of UICI which merged with and into
         HealthAxis.

         UICI reserved an appropriate amount of Insurdata common stock to be
         distributed upon the exercise of such options. Immediately prior to the
         merger of Insurdata and HealthAxis, UICI established the Founders
         Program Voting Trust pursuant to a Voting Trust Agreement dated January
         7, 2000 (the "Founder's Voting Trust Agreement"). In that merger, the
         Founder's Voting Trust received shares of HealthAxis common stock in
         exchange for the Insuradata common stock. Upon the consummation of the
         Merger, the HealthAxis common stock held in the Founder's Voting Trust
         was converted into the right to receive Common Stock.

         The Founder's Voting Trust Agreement provides that the trustees of the
         trust distribute HealthAxis common stock to the holders of options
         upon the exercise of such options. The power to vote the Common Stock
         has been vested in the trustees of the Founder's Voting

         Trust, and UICI does not have the power to direct the disposition of
         the Common Stock held in the Founder's Program Voting Trust. On the
         61st day following the termination of employment of an employee holding
         an option, the trustee of the Founder's Program Voting Trust shall
         deliver the Common Stock being held with respect to such employee to
         UICI.

         UICI does not have any beneficial ownership of the Common Stock held in
         the Founder's Program Voting Trust. A copy of the Founder's Program
