KEANE CARE PRESS RELEASES AND ANNOUNCEMENTS

Strong Second Quarter Sales Affirm Value of VistaKEANE Software Solution

MELVILLE, NY, August 18, 2003

Today the Healthcare Solutions Division (HSD) of Keane, Inc. (AMEX: KEA) announced that it has strengthened its position as the leading provider of software solutions to the post-acute healthcare market, as evidenced by strong second quarter 2003 sales performance. Over a three-month period, Keane Care, the company's long-term care arm, has won multiple contracts that will result in the new installation of the VistaKEANE software suite at 107 long-term and post-acute care facilities.

"Steady sales of our clinical and financial software reflect the diverse and growing needs of today's long-term and post-acute care industry, with facilities needing a proven system to improve care delivery and maximize reimbursement," said Ed Meehan, director of marketing, Keane HSD. "The fact that Keane Care offers these proven systems that also address major industry concerns such as HIPAA compliance, makes us a very strategic choice for potential clients."

HIPAA is federal legislation designed to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the healthcare system and to enhance the confidentiality of patient information. Sweeping regulatory changes imposed by the implementation of HIPAA's Electronic Transaction Standards in October 2003, have left healthcare providers in search of HIPAA-ready financial systems like Keane's that help ensure compliance. Keane Care billing software has been certified by Claredi, the nation's leading provider of HIPAA EDI compliance testing and certification, which gives clients confidence in knowing that Keane Care solutions generate HIPAA-compliant healthcare claims.
