There are significant uncertainties associated with estimating revenue, which generally take several years to resolve. These estimates are subject to ongoing insurance coverage changes, geographic coverage differences, differing interpretations of contract coverage and other payor issues, as well as patient issues, including without limitation, determination of applicable primary and secondary coverage, changes in patient insurance coverage and coordination of benefits. As these estimates are refined over time, both positive and negative adjustments to revenue are recognized in the current period.

3.Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Weighted average common shares outstanding include restricted stock unit awards that are no longer subject to forfeiture because the recipients have satisfied either the explicit vesting terms or retirement eligibility requirements.
Diluted earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of outstanding stock-settled stock appreciation rights and unvested stock units as computed under the treasury stock method.
The reconciliations of the numerators and denominators used to calculate basic and diluted earnings per share were as follows:

As dialysis treatments are an essential, life-sustaining service for patients who depend on them, the Company's operations have continued and are currently expected to continue throughout the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. However, the ultimate impact of the dynamic and evolving COVID-19 pandemic on the Company will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and difficult to predict, including among other things the ultimate severity and duration of the pandemic, further spread or resurgence of the virus (including as a result of the emergence of new strains of the virus such as the Delta variant), its impact on ourthe chronic kidney disease (CKD) patient population and the Company's patient population, the availability, acceptance, impact and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines and other treatments, or therapies, the pandemic’s continuing impact on the U.S.

and global economies and unemployment, the responses of the Company's competitors to the pandemic and related changes in the marketplace, and the timing, scope and effectiveness of federal, state and local governmental responses. While the Company does not currently expect a material adverse impact to its business as a result of this public health crisis, there can be no assurance that the COVID-19 pandemic will not have a material adverse impact on one or more of the Company's businesses.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized a $41,037 goodwill impairment charge in its Germany kidney care business. This charge resulted primarily from a change in relevant discount rates, a decline in then current and expected future patient census and an increase in then current and expected future costs, principally due to wage increases expected to result from legislation announced at that time.
Developments, events, changes in operating performance and other changes in circumstances since the dates of the Company’s last annual goodwill impairment assessments have not caused management to believe it is more likely than not that the fair values of any of the Company's reporting units would be less than their respective carrying amounts as of June 30, 2020.2021. Except for the Company's Germany kidney care reporting unit as described further in Note 10 to the Company's consolidated financial statements included in the 2020 10-K, NaN of the Company's various other reporting units were considered at risk of significant goodwill impairment as of June 30, 2020.2021.

The decrease in the Company's effective tax rate if recognized. for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the prior year is primarily due to an increase in tax benefits from stock-based compensation deductions in the second quarter of 2021 as well as a reduction in nondeductible advocacy expenses in 2021.

* * *
Other than as may be described above, the Company cannot predict the ultimate outcomes of the various legal proceedings and regulatory matters to which the Company is or may be subject from time to time, including those described in this Note 9 to these condensed consolidated financial statements, or the timing of their resolution or the ultimate losses or impact of developments in those matters, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s revenues, earnings and cash flows.

10.Other commitments
The Company has certain other potential commitments to provide operating capital to a number of dialysis centers that are wholly-owned by third parties or businesses in which the Company maintains a noncontrolling equity interest as well as to medical practices that the Company operates under management and administrative services agreements of approximately $9,217.
11.Long-term incentive compensation
Long-term incentive program (LTIP) compensation includes both stock-based awards (principally stock-settled stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units, and performance stock units) as well as long-term performance-based cash awards. Long-term incentive compensation expense, which is primarily general and administrative in nature, is attributed to the Company’s U.S. dialysis business, corporate administrative support, and ancillary services.
The Company’s stock-based compensation expense for stock-settled awards is measured at the estimated fair value of awards on the date of grant and recognized on a cumulative straight-line basis over the vesting terms of the awards unless the stock awards are based on non-market based performance metrics, in which case expense is adjusted for the expected ultimate shares to be issued as of the end of each reporting period. Stock-based compensation expense for cash-settled awards is based on their estimated fair values as of the end of each reporting period. The expense for all stock-based awards is recognized net of expected forfeitures.
On June 11, 2020, the Company’s stockholders approved the DaVita Inc. 2020 Incentive Award Plan (the 2020 Plan). Prior to June 11, 2020 stock-based awards were granted under the DaVita Healthcare Partners Inc. 2011 Incentive Award Plan (the 2011 Plan). At the time of approval of the 2020 Plan there were 8,730 shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2020 Plan, which consisted of 5,000 newly authorized shares as well as 3,730 shares that were rolled over from the 2011 Plan. The 2020 Plan provides for the grant of stock appreciation rights, nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, restricted stock units, restricted stock, performance stock awards, dividend equivalents, stock payments, deferred stock unit awards, deferred stock awards and performance cash awards. The 2020 Plan mandates a maximum award term of 10 years for stock appreciation rights and stock options and stipulates that awards of these types be granted with a base or exercise price per share of not less than the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. Shares$1,259,527 available under the 2020 Plan are also stated on a full valuecurrent authorization for additional share basis rather than onrepurchases. Although this share repurchase authorization does not have an option-equivalent basis. The 2020 Plan therefore provides that shares available for issuanceexpiration date, the Company remains subject to share repurchase limitations including under the plan are reduced by only 1 share available for every 4 shares underlying stockterms of its current senior secured credit facilities.

Investments in equity securities represent investments in various open-ended registered investment companies (mutual funds) and common stock andstocks, some of which are held within a trust to fund existing obligations associated with several of the Company's non-qualified deferred compensation plans. These investments are recorded at fair value estimated based on reported market prices or redemption prices, as applicable. See Note 4 to these condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion.
Interest rate cap agreements are recorded at fair value estimated from valuation models utilizing the income approach and commonly accepted valuation techniques that use inputs from closing prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets as well as other relevant observable market inputs at quoted intervals such as current interest rates, forward yield curves, implied volatility and credit default swap pricing. The Company does not believe the ultimate amount that could be realized upon settlement of these interest rate cap agreements would be materially different from the fair value estimates currently reported. See Note 8 to these condensed consolidated financial statements7 for further discussion.
The estimated fair value measurements of contingent earn-out obligations are primarily based on unobservable inputs, including projected earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA), revenue and revenue.certain operating metrics. The estimated fair valuevalues of these contingent earn-out obligations isare remeasured as of each reporting date and could fluctuate based upon any significant changes in key assumptions, such as changes in the Company's credit risk adjusted rate that is used to discount obligations to present value. See Note 14 to these condensed consolidated financial statements11 for further discussion.
The estimated fair value of noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions is based principally on the higher of either estimated liquidation value of net assets or a multiple of earnings for each subject dialysis partnership, based on historical earnings, revenue mix, and other performance indicators that can affect future results. The multiples used for these valuations are derived from observed ownership transactions for dialysis businesses between unrelated parties in the U.S. in recent years, and the specific valuation multiple applied to each dialysis partnership is principally determined by its recent and expected revenue mix and contribution margin. As of June 30, 2020,2021, an increase or decrease in the weighted average multiple used in these valuations of one times EBITDA would change the estimated fair value of these noncontrolling interests by approximately $150,000.$180,000. See Note 17 and Note 24 to the Company's consolidated financial statements included in the 2020 10-K for further discussion of the Company’s methodology for estimating the fair value of noncontrolling interests subject to put obligations.
The Company's fair value estimates for its senior secured credit facilities and senior notes are based upon bid and ask quotes for these instruments, typically a level 2 input. See Note 8 to these condensed consolidated financial statements7 for further discussion of the Company's debt.
Other financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, other accrued liabilities, lease liabilities and debt. The balances of financial instruments other than debt and lease liabilities are presented in these condensed consolidated financial statements at June 30, 20202021 at their approximate fair values due to the short-term nature of their settlements.

New standards recently adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The amendments in this ASU amend the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the incurred loss methodology for financial instruments and off-balance sheet credit exposures. The amendment requires entities to consider a broader range of information to estimate expected credit losses, which may result in earlier recognition of losses. The amendments in this ASU became effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2020 and were applied using a modified retrospective basis. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-13 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework -Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The applicable amendments in this ASU remove

requirements for disclosures concerning transfers between fair value measurement levels 1, 2 and 3 and disclosures concerning valuation processes for level 3 fair value measurements. The applicable amendments in this ASU also add a requirement to separately disclose the changes in unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income for the reporting period for level 3 items measured at fair value on a recurring basis, and require disclosure of the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in this ASU became effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2020 and were applied on a prospective basis. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements when adopted January 1, 2020.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. ASU No. 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The Company adopted this ASU as of January 1, 2020, using the prospective transition approach, which allows the Company to change the accounting method without restating prior periods or booking cumulative adjustments. The adoption of ASU No. 2018-15 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASUAccounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. ASU No. 2019-12 attempts to simplify aspects of accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates, and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. The amendments in this ASU became effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2021. The adoption of ASU No. 2019-12 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within that fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. The Company is currently assessingdid not have a material impact on the effect this guidance may have on itsCompany's consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. ASU No. 2020-04 provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. generally accepted accounting principles to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another rate that is expected to be discontinued. The amendments in this ASU were effective beginning on March 12, 2020, and the Company may elect to apply the amendments prospectively through December 31, 2022.

21.Condensed consolidating financial statements
The following information is presented in accordance with Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X. The operating and investing activities of the separate legal entities included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements are fully interdependent and integrated. Revenues and operating expenses of the separate legal entities include intercompany charges for management and other administrative services. The Company’s senior notes are guaranteed by a substantial majority of its domestic subsidiaries as measured by revenue, income and assets. The subsidiary guarantors have guaranteed the senior notes on a joint and several basis. However, a subsidiary guarantor will be released from its obligations under its guarantee of the senior notes and the indentures governing the senior notes if, in general, there is a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of such subsidiary guarantor, including by merger or consolidation, or a sale or other disposition of all of the equity interests in such subsidiary guarantor held by the Company and its restricted subsidiaries, as defined in the indentures; such subsidiary guarantor is designated by the Company as an unrestricted subsidiary, as defined in the indentures, or otherwise ceases to be a restricted subsidiary of the Company, in each case in accordance with the indentures; or such subsidiary guarantor no longer guarantees any other indebtedness, as defined in the indentures, of the Company or any of its restricted subsidiaries, except for guarantees that are contemporaneously released. The senior notes are not guaranteed by certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries, any of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries, or any entities that do not constitute subsidiaries within the meaning of the indentures, such as corporations in which the Company holds capital stock with less than a majority of the voting power, joint ventures and partnerships in which the Company holds less than a majority of the equity or voting interests, non-owned entities and third parties. Contemporaneously with the Company entering into its $5,500,000 senior secured credit agreement (the New Credit Agreement) on August 12, 2019 and pursuant to the indentures governing the Company’s senior notes, certain subsidiaries of the Company were released from their guarantees of the Company's senior notes such that, after that release, the remaining subsidiary guarantors of the senior notes were the same subsidiaries guaranteeing the New Credit Agreement. The following condensed consolidating financial statements have been prepared for all periods presented based on the current subsidiary guarantors and non-guarantors stipulated in the New Credit Agreement.

Company Overview
Our principal business is to provide dialysis and related lab services to patients in the United States, which we refer to as our U.S. dialysis business. We also operate various ancillary services and strategic initiatives including our international operations, which we collectively refer to as our ancillary services, as well as our corporate administrative support. Our U.S. dialysis business is a leading provider of kidney dialysis services in the U.S. for patients suffering from chronic kidney failure, also known as end stage renal disease (ESRD) or end stage kidney disease (ESKD).
On June 19, 2019, we completed the sale of our DaVita Medical Group (DMG) business to Optum, a subsidiary of UnitedHealth Group Inc. As a result of this transaction, DMG's results of operations have been reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented and DMG is not included below in this Management's Discussion and Analysis.
COVID-19 and its impact on our business
As a caregiving organization, we are exposed to andWe expect that COVID-19 will continue to be impacted by the effects of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. DaVita’s teammates include, among others, dialysis nurses, patient care technicians, social workers, dieticiansimpact our business and other caregivers who are on the front lines of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic providing essential, life-sustaining care for our patients. During this time of great challenge, our top prioritiesfinancial performance during 2021 and we continue to be the health, safety and well-being ofclosely monitor these various impacts on our patients, teammates, and physician partners, suppliers, vendors, business partners and helpingthe economic and political environment. The magnitude of these impacts remains difficult to ensure thatpredict and subject to significant uncertainty due to a number of factors, including, among others, the ultimate severity and duration of the pandemic; further spread or resurgence of the virus, including as a result of the emergence of new strains of the virus such as the Delta variant; COVID-19’s impact on the chronic kidney disease (CKD) patient population and our patients havepatient population; the abilityavailability, acceptance, impact and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines and other treatments or therapies; the pandemic's continuing impact on the U.S. and global economies and unemployment; the responses of our competitors to maintain continuity of care throughout this crisis, whetherthe pandemic and related changes in the acute, outpatient or home setting. We have implemented additional protocols in coordination withmarketplace; and the Centers for Disease Controltiming, scope and Prevention (CDC) on infection controleffectiveness of federal, state and clinical best practices in responselocal government responses. The continued impacts and disruptions to COVID-19. In addition, we have been collaborating with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), the CDC, the American Society of Nephrology, and dialysis providers nationwide to help ensure that the dialysis community is able to support patients nationwide.
We have also maintainedour business process continuity during the pandemic by enabling most back office teammates to work remotely, and as of the date of this report, we have not experienced any material issues in billing or cash collections. This transition, combined with our balance sheet, has helped us avoid any material deterioration of our liquidity position as a result of the COVID-19 crisis at this time.
We are closely monitoring the long-term impact of the pandemic and the resulting economic downturn on all aspects of our business, including thecould have a material adverse impact on our patients, teammates, physician partners, suppliers, vendorsbusiness, operations, reputation, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and/or liquidity.
Operational and business partners. We haveFinancial Impacts
In the first six months of 2021, treatment volumes reflected continued pressure primarily driven by the ongoing impact of COVID-19 on mortality rates for dialysis patients that has had and expect to continue to have, extended, significant additional costs as a result of COVID-19. For example, we have had, and expect to continue to have, increased costs and risk associated with a high demand for our skilled clinical personnel. Additionally, the steps we have taken designed to help safely maintain continuity of care for our patients and help protect our caregivers, such as our policies to implement dedicated care shifts for patients with confirmed or suspected COVID-19 and other enhanced clinical practices, have increased, and are expected to continue to increase, our expenses and use of personal protective equipment. Our response to COVID-19 has resulted in higher salary and wage expense, and we have provided, and may provide in the future, substantial financial support to our teammates to cover some of the costs related to COVID-19. Furthermore, the effort needed to procure certain of our equipment and clinical supplies and associated costs have increased. These efforts are part of a wider Prepare, Prevent and Respond protocol that we have implemented in connection with the pandemic, which also includes operational initiatives such as the redistribution of teammates, machines and supplies across the country as needed and increased investment in and utilization of telehealth capabilities. Our COVID-19 response has reduced certain expenses, such as those related to teammate travel, and the pandemic has also delayed certain of our planned capital expenditures. Certain temporary changes made in response to the COVID-19 pandemic could become permanent, which could have an adverse impact on our business.
We have observed and expect to continue to observe a negative impact on revenueour patient census. Because ESRD patients may be older and non-acquired growth fromgenerally have comorbidities, several of which are risk factors for COVID-19, due to lower treatment volumes, includingwe believe the mortality rate of infected patients has been higher in the dialysis population than in the general population, and COVID-19 also could impact the CKD population differently. COVID-19 case counts and new infections within our dialysis population have significantly declined from the impactpeak prevalence rates experienced during the winter surge in late 2020 and early 2021 in light of changesvaccination efforts. Although we have experienced an uptick in ratescase counts over the last several weeks, we have had lower mortality counts on an absolute basis over the quarter to date, which we believe may be attributable to our vaccinated patients being protected from more severe cases of mortality, as well as a decrease in new patient admissions due to the impact of COVID-19 on the chronic kidney disease (CKD) population.COVID-19. Over the longer term, we believe that changes in mortality in both the CKD and ESRD populations due to COVID-19 will depend primarily on the infection rate, case fatality rate, andthe age and health status of affected patients. At this time we cannot reasonably estimatepatients, the magnitude or durationaccess to and continued efficacy of thisvaccinations as well as willingness to be vaccinated. We expect that the impact of COVID-19 is likely to continue to negatively impact our revenue and non-acquired growth even as the pandemic subsides. However, determining the extent to which these impacts should be directly attributable to COVID-19 is difficult due in part to testing and reporting limitations, but this adverse impactand other factors that may drive treatment volumes and new admissions over time, such as the number of transplants or deferred admissions. The magnitude of these cumulative impacts has been significant, and depending on the ultimate severity and duration of the pandemic, could be material. Because
We continued to experience increased costs in the first six months of 2021 due in part to the protocols and initiatives we implemented in response to COVID-19 to help us safely maintain continuity of care for patients. Among other things, we continued to experience significant cost inflation on PPE in the first six months of 2021, though certain costs related to our ESRD patients generallyCOVID-19 response have comorbidities, severaldecreased since the peak of which are risk factors forthe COVID-19 surge in the fourth quarter of 2020. We believe that the cost of these medical supplies will remain elevated at least through the end of the year due to limited supply and high demand. In addition, as we believehave done in prior periods, we may provide substantial financial support associated with relief reimbursement to our teammates in the mortality rate of infected patients is, and willfuture. As our COVID-19 response continues, we expect to continue to be, higher inincur extended and significant additional costs. On the dialysis population than inother hand, our COVID-19 response has reduced certain other expenses, such as those related to teammate travel, though it remains uncertain how much of these reductions, if any, will persist after the general population. pandemic subsides and more teammates return to their respective office locations.
In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic and efforts to contain the virus have led to global economic deterioration and rapid and sharp increases in unemployment levels which ultimately could result in a materially reduced share of our patients being covered by commercial insurance plans, with more patients being covered by lower-paying government insurance programs or

being uninsured. These effects may persist after the pandemic subsides andas, among other things, our patients could experience permanent changes in their insurance coverage as a result of changes to their employment status. In the event such a material reduction occurs we believe thatin the share of our patients covered by commercial insurance plans, it would have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. The

We believe the2020. The ultimate impact of this public health crisisCOVID-19 on the Companyour commercial mix will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and difficult to predict,predict. As referenced above, despite improving indicators in certain sectors of the U.S. economy as compared to earlier periods of the pandemic, the labor market continues to experience volatility and uncertainty. This volatility and uncertainty has impacted, and may continue to impact, our ability to attract and retain employees, particularly clinical personnel. Prolonged volatility and uncertainty in the labor market, including, among other things, the severity and duration of the pandemic, thedue to inflationary pressures or evolving monetary policies, could have an adverse impact on our patient population,labor costs and our ability to execute on our strategic initiatives, and ultimately could have a material adverse impact our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Federal, State and Local Government Response
The government response to COVID-19 has been wide-ranging and will continue to develop over time, particularly in light of the pandemic’s continuingnew federal administration. As a result, we may not be able to accurately predict the nature, timing or extent of the impact of such changes on the U.S. and global economies and unemployment, andmarkets in which we conduct business or on the timing, scope and effectivenessother participants that operate in those markets, or any potential changes to the extensive set of federal, state and local governmental responses. At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the ultimate impact the COVID-19 pandemic willlaws, regulations and requirements that govern our business. We have on us, but the adverse impact could be material.
A significant initial part of the federalworked with certain government responseagencies to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, was the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, a $2 trillion economic stimulus package that was signed into law on March 27, 2020. The CARES Act authorized $100 billion in funding to be distributed to healthcare providers throughcertain cases have sought waivers of regulatory requirements. We also have contracted with the federal Public Healthgovernment for direct administration of COVID-19 vaccines to our patients and Social Services Emergency Fund (Provider Relief Fund). Under the CARES Act, in April 2020 the government distributed approximately $250 million to the Companyteammates at our clinics. These vaccines are currently available under emergency use authorizations, and its affiliated joint ventures from the Provider Relief Fund, and these funds were only to be used for healthcare related expenses or lost revenues attributable to COVID-19. While we elected not to accept the funds available to us through this government financial support and returned these funds in May 2020, therethere can be no assurance that weour patients and caregivers will be ablechoose to continue to forego the receipt of financial or other assistance under the CARES Act or similar subsequent legislationreceive a COVID-19 vaccine or that similar assistancethe vaccines will prove to be available fromas safe and effective as currently understood by the government ifscientific community, particularly as it may relate to variants of the virus. In addition, we may encounter difficulties with the availability and storage of the vaccines, or experience other complications related to administering the vaccines, some of which have a need for such assistancemultiple dose requirements. Certain state and federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) agencies have released requirements, or are considering or are in the future.process of modifying existing requirements associated with the continued protection of employees as it relates to COVID-19. These requirements will result in increased costs related to, among other things, PPE, fit-testing, and paid time off and other increased obligations with which we must comply. We operate in a complex and highly regulated environment, and the novel nature of our COVID-19 response, including, for example, with respect to regulatory waivers, our administration of the newly developed COVID-19 vaccines and our efforts to comply with evolving rules and regulations, may increase our exposure to legal, regulatory and clinical risks.
The CARES Act also included a provision thatFederal COVID-19 relief legislation suspended the 2% Medicare sequestration from May 1, 2020 through March 31, 2021. The Medicare Sequester Relief Act, signed into law on April 14, 2021, extended the suspension of the 2% Medicare sequestration from March 31, 2021 until December 31, 2020,2021. While in effect, the suspension of sequestration has significantly increased, and in the second quarter of 2020 our revenues increased due to this suspension as further described below. Wewill continue to estimate that this temporary suspension willsignificantly increase our revenues while it remains in effect.revenues.

U.S. dialysis revenues for the second quarter of 20202021 increased from the first quarter of 2020 primarily due to an increase in our average patient service revenue per treatment and an increase in dialysis treatments. Our U.S. dialysis average patient service revenue per treatment benefited from normal seasonality driven by patients meeting their co-insurance and deductibles, favorable changes in government and commercial payor mix and an increase in Medicare rates due to the temporary suspension of Medicare sequestration. The increase in our U.S. dialysis treatments was primarily driven by volume growth from a slight increase in treatment days. These increases were partially offset by a Medicare rate decline related to calcimimetics and a decrease in inpatient dialysis service revenue.
U.S. dialysis revenues for the second quarter of 2020 increased from the second quarter of 2019 primarily due to an increase in our average patient service revenue per treatment and an increase in dialysis treatments. Our U.S. dialysis average patient service revenue per treatment increased primarily due to an increase in base Medicare rates in 2020 and an increase in Medicare rates due to the temporary suspension of Medicare sequestration. Our U.S. dialysis treatments increased primarily due to volume growth from acquired and non-acquired treatment growth, partially offset by the deconsolidation of two dialysis partnerships, as described below under the heading "Equity investment income". These increases were partially offset by a decline in Medicare rates related to calcimimetics.
U.S. dialysis revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased from the six months ended June 30, 20192021 primarily due to an increase in dialysis treatments and an increase in our average patient service revenue per treatment. The increase in our U.S. dialysis treatments was primarily driven by one additional treatment day and fewer missed treatments, the latter of which were higher in the first quarter of 2021 primarily due to winter storms. Our U.S. dialysis average patient service revenue per treatment was positively impacted by favorable changes in government mix and rate, including increases due to shifts to Medicare Advantage plans, and normal seasonal improvements driven by patients meeting their co-insurance and deductibles. These increases were partially offset by a decline in hospital inpatient dialysis revenue.
U.S. dialysis revenues for the second quarter of 2021 slightly increased from the second quarter of 2020 primarily due to an increase in our average patient service revenue per treatment, partially offset by a decrease in dialysis treatments. Our U.S. dialysis average patient service revenue per treatment increase was primarily driven by favorable changes in government rates related to an increase in the Medicare base rate in 2021 and the temporary suspension of Medicare sequestration effective May 1, 2020, as well as favorable changes in government mix due to shifts to Medicare Advantage plans, and increased hospital inpatient dialysis revenue. Our U.S. dialysis treatments decreased primarily due to the impact of increased mortality over recent periods on our patient population and a decline in non-acquired treatment growth. We believe the increased mortality is largely attributable to the impact of COVID-19 on our patient population.
U.S. dialysis revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021 decreased from the six months ended June 30, 2020 primarily due to a decrease in dialysis treatments, partially offset by an increase in our average patient service revenue per treatment. The decrease in our U.S. dialysis treatments was driven by 0.6 fewer treatment days in the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020, increased mortality and volume growth from acquired and non-acquired treatment growth, partially offset bymissed treatments the deconsolidationlatter of which were higher in the two dialysis partnerships, as described below underfirst quarter of 2021 primarily due to winter storms. We believe the heading "Equity investment income".increased mortality is largely attributable to the impact of COVID-19 on our patient population.

U.S. dialysis equity investment income for the second quarter of 2020 increased from the second quarter of 2019 primarily due to the deconsolidation of two of our near 50%-owned dialysis partnerships at year-end 2019, based on a reassessment of relative rights and powers over these partnerships. Our portion of these partnerships' earnings are now recognized in equity investment income. This increase in equity investment income was partially offset by a decrease in the profitability of certain joint ventures.

Other—Ancillary services
Our other operations include ancillary services whichthat are primarily aligned with our core business of providing dialysis services to our network of patients. As of June 30, 2020,2021, these consisted primarily of integrated care and disease management, ESRD seamless care organizations (ESCOs), clinical research programs and physician services, as well as our international operations. These ancillary services, including our international operations, forgenerated revenues of approximately $261 million and $523 million in the second quarter of 2020 generated approximately $245 million of revenues, representing approximately 8% of our consolidated revenues,2021 and for the six months ended June 30, 2020 generated approximately $506 million of revenues,2021, respectively, representing approximately 9% of our consolidated revenues.revenues in both periods. As part of our growth strategy, we have invested, and expect to continue to invest resources in the further development of value-based care and our integrated care business. There can be no assurances that we will be able to successfully implement our strategies with respect to value-based care and integrated kidney care in a complex, evolving and highly regulated environment, including, among other things, maintaining our existing business, recovering our investments, entering into agreements with payors and others on competitive terms, and further developing our capabilities to provide competitive programs at scale. If our value-based care and integrated kidney care programs are unsuccessful, it could result in a loss of our investments and have a material adverse effect on our growth strategy, and could have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Furthermore, if any of our other ancillary services, or strategic initiatives, such as our international operations, are unsuccessful, it could have a negative impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows, and we may determine to exit that line of business, which could result in significant termination costs.costs or loss of investment. In addition, we have in the past and may in the future incur material restructuring, write-off or impairment charges on our investment in one or more of these ancillary services, including our investments in goodwill.
We expect to add additional service offerings to our business and to pursue additional strategic initiativesother ancillary service opportunities in the future as circumstances warrant, which could include, among other things, healthcare services not related to dialysis.
As of June 30, 2020,2021, our international dialysis operations provided dialysis and administrative services through a total of 287331 outpatient dialysis centers located in ten countries outside of the United States.

Charges impacting operating loss:
Loss on changes in ownership interests, net.We In the second quarter of 2020, we sold 100% of the stock of Lifeline, our vascular access business, effective May 1, 2020 and recognized a loss of approximately $16 million on this transaction.
Goodwill impairment charges. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we recognized a goodwill impairment charge of $41 million in our German kidney care business. This charge resulted primarily from a change in relevant discount rates, a decline in then current and expected future patient census and an increase in then current and expected future costs, principally due to wage increases expected to result from legislation announced at that time. See further discussion of this impairment charge and our reporting units that remain at risk of goodwill impairment in Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

related expenses. The decrease in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests for the second quarter of 2020 compared to the second quarter of 2019 was primarily due to the deconsolidation of two dialysis partnerships at year-end 2019, as described above.driven by higher revenue per treatment.

Available liquidity
As of June 30, 2020,2021, we had an undrawn $1.0 billion revolving line of credit under our senior secured credit facilities. Credit available under this revolving line of credit is reduced by the amount of any letters of credit outstanding. There are currently no lettersoutstanding thereunder, of credit outstanding under the senior secured credit facilities.which there were none as of June 30, 2021. We separately have approximately $57$69 million of outstanding letters of credit under a separate bilateral secured letter of credit facility.
See Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for components of our long-term debt and their interest rates. We may from time to time seek to obtain funds or refinance existing debt through additional unsecured debt financings or other capital alternatives.
On July 15, 2020, we used the net proceeds from the 4 ⅝% senior notes due 2030 that we issued in June 2020, together with cash on hand, to redeem in full all $1.750 billion aggregate principal amount outstanding of our 5 ⅛% senior notes due 2024, plus accrued interest and redemption premium. In connection with this transaction we incurred debt redemption premium charges of $30 million and deferred financing costs write-offs of $10 million, which will be recognized in the third quarter of 2020, along with advisory costs incurred in connection with this redemption.

See Note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for components of our long-term debt and their interest rates.

The COVID-19 pandemic and efforts to prevent its spread have dramatically reducedimpacted global economic activity and driven increased volatility in the financial markets. We have maintained business process continuity during the COVID-19 pandemic by enabling most back office teammates to work remotely, and as of the date of this report, we have not experienced any material issues in billing or cash collections. This transition, combined with our balance sheet, has helped us to avoid any material deterioration ofin our liquidity position as a result of the COVID-19 crisis at this time.crisis. In addition, we elected not to accept approximately $250 million in funds available to us through the CARES Act Provider Relief Fund and returned thesethe funds we received in May 2020. There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to foregoforgo the receipt of financial or other assistance under the CARES Act or similar subsequent legislation or that similar assistance will be available from the government if we have a need for such assistance in the future. The ultimate impact of the pandemic will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and difficult to predict.
We believe that our cash flow from operations and other sources of liquidity, including from amounts available under our senior secured credit facilities and our access to the capital markets, will be sufficient to fund our scheduled debt service under the terms of our debt agreements and other obligations for the foreseeable future, including the next 12 months. Our primary recurrent sources of liquidity are cash from operations and cash from borrowings.borrowings, which are subject to general, economic, financial, competitive, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control, as described in Item 1A Risk Factors of our 2020 10-K.
Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures
The following tables provide reconciliations of adjusted operating income (loss) to operating income (loss) as presented on a U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis for our U.S. dialysis reportable segment as well as for our U.S. ancillary services, our international business, and for our total ancillary services which combines them and is disclosed as our other segments category. These non-GAAP or “adjusted” measures are presented because management believes these measures are useful adjuncts to, but not alternatives for, our GAAP results.
Specifically, management uses adjusted operating income (loss) to compare and evaluate our performance period over period and relative to competitors, to analyze the underlying trends in our business, to establish operational budgets and forecasts and for incentive compensation purposes. We believe this non-GAAP measure is also useful to investors and analysts in evaluating our performance over time and relative to competitors, as well as in analyzing the underlying trends in our business. We also


believe this presentation enhances a user's understanding of our normal operating income by excluding certain items which we do not believe are indicative of our ordinary results of operations.
In addition, our effective income tax rate on income from continuing operations attributable to DaVita Inc. excludes noncontrolling owners' income, which primarily relates to non-tax paying entities. We believe this adjusted effective income tax rate is useful to management, investors and analysts in evaluating our performance and establishing expectations for income taxes incurred on our ordinary results attributable to DaVita Inc.
Finally, our free cash flow from continuing operations represents net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations less distributions to noncontrolling interests and all capital expenditures (including development capital expenditures, routine maintenance and information technology);, plus contributions from noncontrolling interests and proceeds from the sale leaseback proceeds.of self-developed properties. Management uses this measure to assess our ability to fund acquisitions and meet our debt service obligations and we believe this measure is equally useful to investors and analysts as an adjunct to cash flows from operating activities from continuing operations and other measures under GAAP.
It is important to bear in mind that these non-GAAP “adjusted” measures are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation from, nor as substitutes for, their most comparable GAAP measures.

Off-balance sheet arrangements and aggregate contractual obligations
In addition to the debt obligations and operating lease liabilities reflected on our balance sheet, we have commitments associated with letters of credit, as well as potentialcertain working capital funding obligations associated with our equity investments in nonconsolidated businesses and to dialysis ventures that we manage and some that we manage which are wholly-owned by third parties.
We also have potential obligations to purchase the noncontrolling interests held by third parties in many of our majority-owned dialysis partnerships and other nonconsolidated entities. These obligations are in the form of put provisions that are exercisable at the third-party owners’ discretion within specified periods as outlined in each specific put provision. IfFor additional information on these put provisions were exercised,obligations and how we would be required to purchase the third-party owners’ equity interests, generally at the appraised fair market value of the equity interests or in certain cases at a predetermined multiple of earnings or cash flows attributablemeasure and report them, see Note 13 to the equity interests put to us, intended to approximate fair value. The methodology we use to estimate the fair values of noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions assumes the higher of either a liquidation value of net assets or an average multiple of earnings, based on historical earnings, patient mixcondensed consolidated financial statements and other performance indicators that can affect future results, as well as other factors. The estimated fair values of noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions are a critical accounting estimate that involves significant judgmentsNote 17 and assumptions and may not be indicative of the actual values at which the noncontrolling interests may ultimately be settled, which could vary significantly from our current estimates. The estimated fair values of noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions can fluctuate and the implicit multiple of earnings at which these noncontrolling interests obligations may be settled will vary significantly depending upon market conditions including potential purchasers’ accessNote 24 to the capital markets, which can impact the level of competition for dialysis and non-dialysis related businesses, the economic performance of these businesses and the restricted marketability of the third-party owners’ equity interests. The amount of noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions that employ a contractually predetermined multiple of earnings rather than fair value are immaterial.
We also have certain other potential commitments to provide operating capital to several dialysis businesses that are wholly-owned by third parties orconsolidated financial statements included in which we own a noncontrolling equity interest as well as to certain medical practices that we operate under management and administrative services agreements.our 2020 10-K.

We have an agreement with Fresenius Medical Care (FMC) to purchase a certain amount of dialysis equipment, parts and supplies from FMC through December 31, 2020. We also have an agreement with Baxter Healthcare Corporation (Baxter) that commits us to purchase a certain amount of hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis supplies at fixed prices through 2022. If we fail to meet the minimum purchase commitments under these contracts during any year, we are required to pay the difference to the supplier.
In addition to the commitments listed above, in 2017 we entered into a sourcing and supply agreement with Amgen USA Inc. (Amgen) that expires on December 31, 2022. Under the terms of this agreement, we will purchase EPO from Amgen in amounts necessary to meet no less than 90% of our requirements for erythropoiesis stimulatingerythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) through the expiration of the contract with Amgen.contract. The actual amount of EPO that we will purchase will depend upon the amount of EPO administered during dialysis as prescribed by physicians and the overall number of patients that we serve.
The purchase commitments in the table above represent our agreements with various suppliers to purchase set amounts of dialysis equipment, parts, and supplies. If we fail to meet the minimum purchase commitments under these contracts during any year, we are required to pay the difference to the supplier.
Settlements of existing income tax liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $85$92 million, including interest, penalties and other long-term tax liabilities, are excluded from the table above as reasonably reliable estimates of their timing cannot be made.

OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1.    Legal Proceedings
The information required by this Part II, Item 1 is incorporated herein by reference to the information set forth under the caption “Contingencies”“Commitments and Contingencies” in Note 98 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In additionThere have been no material changes to the following risk factor and the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussedpreviously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K (our Form(2020 10-K) for the year ended December 31, 2019,2020 filed with Securities and Exchange Commission. You should carefully consider the risks included in Part II, Item 1A of our 2020 10-K, together with all the other information in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (our Q1 10-Q) for the quarter ended March 31, 20202021 and any subsequent filings withthis Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which could materially affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or future results. The risks and uncertainties discussed below, in our Form 10-K, our Q1 10-Q and in any subsequent filings with the SEC are not the only ones facing our business. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may materially adversely affect our business, cash flows, financial condition and/or results of operations. The risk factor below updates, and should be read together with, the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Form 10-K and Part II, Item 1A of our Q1 10-Q. Please also read the cautionary notice regarding forward-looking statements in Part I, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q under the heading "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."
Changes in federal and state healthcare legislation or regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
The extensive federal and state laws, regulations and requirements that govern our business may continue to change over time, and there is no assurance that we will be able to accurately predict the nature, timing or extent of such changes or the impact of such changes on the markets in which we conduct business or on the other participants that operate in those markets.
For example, the government response to the COVID-19 pandemic has been wide-ranging and will continue to develop over time. We believe that associated changes to federal and state laws, regulations and requirements may continue to impact our business in a variety of ways, including with respect to the availability of government financial assistance, social distancing guidelines and other restrictions on physical business operations, and temporary regulatory waivers or other changes to regulatory operating guidance at our clinics. Certain temporary changes made in response to the COVID-19 pandemic could become permanent, which could have an adverse impact on our business. For additional detail on the risks we face associated with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, see the discussion under the risk factor in our Q1 10-Q, “We face various risks related to the dynamic and rapidly evolving novel coronavirus pandemic, any of which may have a material adverse impact on us.”
In addition, the regulatory framework of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care Reconciliation Act of 2010, as amended (ACA), and other healthcare reforms continues to evolve as a result of executive, legislative, regulatory and administrative developments and judicial proceedings. As such, there remains considerable uncertainty surrounding the continued implementation of the ACA and what similar healthcare reform measures or other changes might be enacted at the federal and/or state level. While legislative attempts to completely repeal the ACA have been unsuccessful to date, there have been multiple attempts to repeal or amend the ACA through legislative action and legal challenges. For example, in March 2020, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to review a decision by the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals as to whether the individual mandate, which required individuals to obtain a qualifying health insurance plan, was unconstitutional and whether the mandate could be severed from the ACA. This litigation is still ongoing, but places great uncertainty upon the longevity and nature of the ACA moving forward.
While there may be material changes to the healthcare environment in the future, including, without limitation, as a result of potential changes to the political environment in connection with the current election year or otherwise, the specific changes and their timing are not yet apparent. Nevertheless, previously enacted reforms and future changes, including among others, any changes in legislation, regulation or market conditions in connection with or resulting from the upcoming elections, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. For example, our revenue levels are highly sensitive to the percentage of our patients with higher-paying commercial health insurance, and as such, legislative, regulatory or other changes that decrease the accessibility and availability, including the duration, of commercial insurance may have a material adverse impact on our business. The ACA's health insurance exchanges, which provide a marketplace for eligible individuals and small employers to purchase health insurance, initially increased the accessibility and availability of commercial insurance. However, certain legislative developments, such as the repeal of the

individual mandate described above, have adversely impacted the risk pool in certain exchange markets, and the nature and extent of commercial payor participation in the exchanges has fluctuated as a result. In the event the exchange markets are significantly impaired or if the ACA is repealed in its entirety, it may adversely impact the percentage of our patients with higher-paying commercial health insurance, particularly if patients impacted by the pandemic related high unemployment levels are unable to turn to the exchanges as an alternative to employer based coverage. These and other proposed legislative developments or administrative decisions, such as moving to a universal health insurance or "single payor" system whereby health insurance is provided to all Americans by the government under government programs, or the lowering or eliminating of cost-sharing reduction subsidies under the ACA, could impact the percentage of our patients with higher-paying commercial health insurance, impact the scope of coverage under commercial health plans and increase our expenses, among other things. Although we cannot predict the short- or long-term effects of legislative or regulatory changes or the potential outcome or impact of the upcoming elections, we believe that future market changes could result in, among other things, more restrictive commercial plans with lower reimbursement rates or higher deductibles and co-payments that patients may not be able to pay. To the extent that changes in statutes, regulations or related guidance or changes in other market conditions result in a reduction in the percentage of our patients with commercial insurance, limit the scope or nature of coverage through the exchanges or other health insurance programs or otherwise reduce reimbursement rates for our services from commercial and/or government payors, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. For additional information on the impact of legislative or regulatory changes on the percentage of our patients with commercial insurance, see the risk factor in our 10-K under the heading "If the number of patients with higher-paying commercial insurance declines, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows."
In addition to the ACA, changing legislation and other regulatory and executive developments have led to the emergence of new models of care and other initiatives in both the government and private sector. Any failure on our part to adequately implement strategic initiatives to adjust to these marketplace developments could have a material adverse impact on our business. For example, the July 10, 2019 executive order (the 2019 Executive Order) related to kidney care directed CMS to create payment models to evaluate the effects of creating payment incentives for the greater use of home dialysis and kidney transplants for those already on dialysis. CMS subsequently announced in a proposed rule the ESRD Treatment Choices (ETC) mandatory payment model, which will be administered through the CMMI and is proposed to launch in 50% of dialysis clinics across the country, with an implementation date currently listed with a final action date of July 2022. Under the proposed rule, which was subject to a comment period that ended in September 2019, CMS would select ESRD facilities and clinicians to participate in the model according to their location in randomly selected geographic areas and would require participation to minimize the potential for selection effect. We support the administration’s emphasis on and move towards home dialysis and kidney transplant; however, we believe that if launched as proposed, the ETC model would negatively impact patient clinical care, Medicare coverage and/or payment for ESRD claims and, depending on the final requirements of the ETC model, ultimately could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. With home dialysis as a focus of the ETC model and the industry generally, any failure to successfully implement our strategy or build on our abilities to offer home dialysis options could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operation, financial condition and cash flows. For additional detail on the risks related to our home dialysis services, see the discussion in our 10-K under the heading "If we are not able to successfully implement our strategy with respect to home-based dialysis, including maintaining and further developing our capabilities in a complex and highly regulated environment, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows, and could materially harm our reputation."
In connection with the 2019 Executive Order, CMS also announced the implementation of four voluntary payment models with the stated goal of helping healthcare providers reduce the cost and improve the quality of care for patients with late-stage chronic kidney disease and ESRD. CMS has stated these payment models are aimed to prevent or delay the need for dialysis and encourage kidney transplantation. These payment models are currently scheduled to begin in April 2021, with applicants now having the option to delay implementation until January 2022. Additional details and specifics of these voluntary models have not yet been provided, and we anticipate that such details will be released in the second half of 2020. Though we have applied for, and been provisionally accepted to participate in certain of these voluntary models, we continue to assess these models and their viability for us and the industry, and our assessment and ultimate determination regarding whether or not to participate will continue to develop over time as additional details become available.
In addition, CMMI is currently working with various healthcare providers to develop, refine and implement Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) and other innovative models of care for Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries, including, without limitation, the Comprehensive ESRD Care Model (CEC Model) (which includes the development of end stage renal disease (ESRD) Seamless Care Organizations), the Duals Demonstration, and other models. We are currently participating in the CEC Model with CMMI, including with organizations in Arizona, Florida, and adjacent markets in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. We may choose to participate in additional models either as a partner with other providers or independently. Even in areas where we are not directly participating in these or other CMMI models, some of our patients may be assigned to an ACO,


another ESRD Care Model, or another program, in which case the quality and cost of care that we furnish will be included in an ACO's, another ESRD Care Model's, or other program's calculations.
CMS has also recently issued final implementing rules related to the 21st Century Cures Act (the Cures Act). The Cures Act, enacted in December 2016, included a provision that, effective January 1, 2021, will allow Medicare-eligible beneficiaries with ESRD to choose to obtain coverage under a Medicare Part C Medicare Advantage (MA) managed care plan, which could broaden access to certain enhanced benefits offered by MA plans. MA plans usually provide reimbursement to us at a negotiated rate that is generally higher than Medicare fee-for-service rates. We continue to evaluate the potential impact of this change in benefit eligibility, as there is significant uncertainty as to how many or which newly eligible ESRD patients will seek to enroll in MA plans for their ESRD benefits and how quickly any such changes would occur. This uncertainty may be heightened by components of the aforementioned final implementing rules, which include a provision that, among other things, removes the objective standards relating to network adequacy for outpatient dialysis centers for MA plans. The removal of these standards could result in MA plans seeking to limit provider networks available to dialysis patients. We joined a legal challenge contesting the removal of these objective time and distance standards. If implemented for the 2021 enrollment period, MA plans could attempt to limit the number of in-network dialysis alternatives available to patients, which may in turn adversely impact the number of ESRD patients that select MA plans. If kidney patients choose not to enroll in MA plans or choose to leave MA plans, whether due to network adequacy standards or otherwise, or if we fail to provide education to kidney patients in the manner specified by CMS, we could be subject to certain clinical, operational, financial and legal risks, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. In addition, if we fail to maintain contracts with payors with competitive terms, including reimbursement rates, scope and duration of coverage and in-network benefits, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
In addition to the aforementioned new models of care, federal bipartisan legislation related to full capitation demonstration for ESRD was proposed in late 2017. Such legislation, if formally introduced into Congress, would build on prior coordinated care models, such as the CEC Model, and would establish a demonstration program for the provision of integrated care to Medicare ESRD patients. We have made and continue to make investments in building our integrated care capabilities, but there can be no assurances that initiatives such as this or similar legislation will be introduced or passed into law, and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic may delay the progress of such initiatives. If such legislation is passed, there can be no assurances that we will be able to successfully execute on the required strategic initiatives that would allow us to provide a competitive and successful integrated care program on the broader scale contemplated by this legislation, and in the desired time frame. Additionally, the ultimate terms and conditions of any such potential legislation remain unclear. For example, our costs of care could exceed our associated reimbursement rates under such legislation. The new and evolving landscape for integrated kidney care also has led to opportunities with relative ease of entry for certain smaller and/or non-traditional providers, which may be enhanced by the ongoing global health crisis, and we may be competing with them for patients in an asymmetrical environment with respect to data and/or regulatory requirements given our status as an ESRD service provider. For additional detail on our evolving competitive environment, see the risk factor in our 10-K under the heading "If we are unable to compete successfully, including, without limitation, implementing our growth strategy and/or retaining patients and physicians willing to serve as medical directors, it could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows." In general, if we are unable to efficiently adjust to these and other new models of care, it may, among other things, erode our patient base or reimbursement rates, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operation, financial condition and cash flows.
There have also been several state initiatives to limit payments to dialysis providers or impose other burdensome operational requirements, which, if passed, could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operation, financial condition and cash flow. For example, on October 24, 2019, the Service Employees International Union - United Healthcare Workers West (SEIU) proposed a California statewide ballot initiative for the November 2020 election that seeks to impose certain regulatory requirements on dialysis clinics, including requirements related to physician staffing levels, clinical reporting, clinical treatment options and limitations on the ability to make decisions on closing or reducing services for dialysis clinics. We have incurred, and expect to continue to incur costs in connection with this new initiative (Proposition 23), which will be included on the ballot for the November 2020 election, and we expect that these costs will be substantial. In the event that Proposition 23 is passed, it would materially increase our operating and other costs and reduce our revenues, and we expect it would require us to close or consolidate existing dialysis centers, postpone or not build new dialysis centers, reduce shifts or otherwise negatively impact employee relations, treatment growth and productivity, and could otherwise have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Additionally, there can be no assurances that we would be successful in staffing our clinics to any new, elevated staffing levels, in particular given the ongoing nationwide shortage of healthcare workers, especially skilled clinical personnel, and the continuing pandemic. Similar initiatives were also proposed in Ohio and Arizona in the 2018 election cycle; however, neither of these initiatives met the


applicable requirements for inclusion on the state ballot for the November 2018 elections. We may face similar ballot initiatives or other proposed regulations or legislation in the future in these or other states.
There have also been rule making and legislative efforts at both the federal and state level concerning charitable premium assistance. In December 2016, CMS published an interim final rule that questioned the use of charitable premium assistance for ESRD patients and would have established new conditions for coverage standards for dialysis facilities. In January 2017, a federal district court in Texas issued a preliminary injunction on CMS' interim final rule and in June 2017, at the request of CMS, the court stayed the proceedings while CMS pursues new rulemaking options. In June 2019, CMS sent to the White House Office of Management and Budget a proposed rule entitled "Conditions for Coverage for End-Stage Renal Disease Facilities-Third Party Payments." We do not know if or when this proposed rule will be released. In addition, on October 13, 2019, a California bill (AB 290) was signed into law that limits the amount of reimbursement paid to certain providers for services provided to patients with commercial insurance who receive charitable premium assistance. AB 290 was expected to become effective in January 2020. The American Kidney Fund (AKF), an organization that provides charitable premium assistance, announced that it would be withdrawing from California as a result of AB 290. On November 1, 2019, AKF filed a lawsuit in federal court challenging the law on several grounds. A group of providers, including DaVita, also filed a lawsuit challenging the law in federal court on November 5, 2019. The parties to each suit also filed motions for preliminary injunctions shortly after filing the lawsuits, seeking to prevent AB 290’s implementation during litigation. On December 30, 2019, the district court granted a preliminary injunction. The preliminary injunction will remain in place until a final judgment is made in the case, which is ongoing.
In the event AB 290 becomes effective and the AKF withdraws from California, we expect an adverse impact on the ability of patients to afford Medicare premiums and Medicare supplemental (Medigap) and commercial coverage, which we expect will in turn result in an adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. In addition, bills similar to AB 290 were introduced in Illinois (SB 650) and Oregon (SB 900) in 2019, but have not been successfully passed to date. If these or similar bills are introduced and implemented in other jurisdictions, and organizations that provide charitable premium assistance in those jurisdictions are similarly impacted, it could in the aggregate have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. For additional information on the impact of decreases to the percentage of our patients with commercial insurance, see the risk factor in our 10-K under the heading "If the number of patients with higher-paying commercial insurance declines, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows".
Among other things, regulatory guidance, proposed legislation and ballot initiatives and any similar initiatives could restrict or prohibit the ability of patients with access to alternative coverage from selecting a marketplace plan on or off exchange, limit the amount of revenue that a dialysis provider can retain for caring for patients with commercial insurance, impose burdensome operational requirements, affect payments made to providers for services provided to patients who receive charitable premium assistance and/or otherwise restrict or prohibit the use of charitable premium assistance, or reduce the standards for network adequacy. In turn, these potential impacts could cause us to incur substantial costs to oppose any such proposed requirements or measures, impact our dialysis center development plans, and if passed and/or implemented, could adversely impact dialysis centers across the U.S. making certain centers economically unviable, lead to the closure of certain centers, restrict the ability of dialysis patients to obtain and maintain optimal insurance coverage and reduce the number of patients that select commercial insurance plans or MA plans for their dialysis care, among other things. Evolving proposed or issued laws, requirements, rules and guidance that impact our business, including as may be described above, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
