Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Organization	Organization Evolent Health, Inc. was incorporated in December 2014 in the state of Delaware, and is a managed services firm that supports leading health systems and physician organizations in their migration toward value-based care and population health management. The Company operates through two segments. The Company’s services segment (“Services”) provides our customers, who we refer to as partners, with a population management platform, integrated data and analytics capabilities, pharmacy benefit management (“PBM”) services and comprehensive health plan administration services. Together these services enable health systems to manage patient health in a more cost-effective manner. The Company’s contracts are structured as a combination of advisory fees, monthly member service fees, percentage of plan premiums and shared medical savings arrangements. The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, True Health New Mexico, Inc. (“True Health”) operates as a separate segment and is a commercial health plan we operate in New Mexico that focuses on small and large businesses. The Company’s headquarters is located in Arlington, Virginia. Our predecessor, Evolent Health Holdings, Inc. (“Evolent Health Holdings”), merged with and into Evolent Health, Inc. in connection with the offering reorganization which occurred on June 4, 2015 (the “Offering Reorganization”), as discussed in our 2017 Form 10-K. Prior to our initial public offering (“IPO”) in June 2015 and the Offering Reorganization we undertook in connection therewith, Evolent Health Holdings did not control Evolent Health LLC, our operating subsidiary company due to certain participating rights granted to our investor, TPG Global, LLC and certain of its affiliates (“TPG”). However, Evolent Health Holdings was able to exert significant influence on Evolent Health LLC and, accordingly, accounted for its investment in Evolent Health LLC using the equity method of accounting through June 3, 2015. Subsequent to the Offering Reorganization, the financial results of Evolent Health LLC have been consolidated in the financial statements of Evolent Health, Inc. Following the Offering Reorganization, the IPO, various securities offerings and sales (as described in Note 4 ) and acquisitions (as described in Note 4 ), as of June 30, 2018 , Evolent Health, Inc. owned 99.0% of Evolent Health LLC, holds 100% of the voting rights, is the sole managing member and, therefore, controls its operations. Since its inception, the Company has incurred losses from operations. As of June 30, 2018 , the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $198.0 million . The Company believes it has sufficient liquidity for the next 12 months as of the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Changes in Accounting Principles	Basis of Presentation, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Changes in Accounting Principles Basis of Presentation In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary to fairly state our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2017 , has been derived from audited financial statements as of that date. The interim consolidated results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may occur for the full fiscal year. Certain footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with United States of America generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been omitted pursuant to instructions, rules, and regulations prescribed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The disclosures provided herein should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2017 Form 10-K. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Certain GAAP policies that significantly affect the determination of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows, are summarized below. See “Part II - Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 2” in our 2017 Form 10-K for a complete summary of our significant accounting policies. Accounting Estimates and Assumptions The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses for the reporting period. Those estimates are inherently subject to change and actual results could differ from those estimates. In the accompanying consolidated financial statements, estimates are used for, but not limited to, the valuation of assets, liabilities, consideration related to business combinations and asset acquisitions, revenue recognition including variable consideration, discounts and credits, estimated selling prices for performance obligations in contracts with multiple performance obligations, claims reserves, contingent payments, allowance for doubtful accounts, depreciable lives of assets, impairment of long lived assets (including equity method investments), stock-based compensation, deferred income taxes and valuation allowance, contingent liabilities, valuation of intangible assets (including goodwill), purchase price allocation in taxable stock transactions and the useful lives of intangible assets. Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Evolent Health, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All inter-company accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Operating Segments Operating segments are defined as components of a business that earn revenue and incur expenses for which discrete financial information is available that is evaluated, on a regular basis, by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) to decide how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company operates through two segments: (1) Services, and (2) True Health. Our Services segment consists of our technology-enabled services platform that supports our various value-based operations, such as delivery network alignment, population health performance, integrated cost and revenue management solutions and financial and administrative management services. Our True Health segment consists of a commercial health plan we operate in New Mexico that focuses on small and large businesses. See Note 17 for a discussion of our operating results by segment. Revenue Recognition Our Services segment derives revenue from two sources: (1) transformation services and (2) platform and operations services. See “Changes in Accounting Principles” below for our updated revenue recognition policy as a result of our adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Our True Health segment derives revenue from premiums that are earned over the terms of the related insurance policies. The portion of premiums that will be earned in the future or are received prior to the effectiveness of the policy are deferred and reported as premiums received in advance. These amounts are generally classified as short-term deferred revenue on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Restricted Cash and Restricted Investments Restricted cash and restricted investments include cash and investments used to collateralize various contractual obligations (in thousands) as follows: As of As of June 30, December 31, 2018 2017 Collateral for letters of credit for facility leases (1) $ 3,711 $ 3,812 Collateral with financial institutions (2) 21,941 24,725 Pharmacy benefit management and claims processing services (3) 19,028 26,286 Collateral for reinsurance agreement (4) 10,000 10,000 Other 2,374 862 Total restricted cash and restricted investments 57,054 65,685 Current restricted investments — 8,150 Current restricted cash 53,660 54,248 Total current restricted cash and restricted investments 53,660 62,398 Non-current restricted investments 712 605 Non-current restricted cash 2,682 2,682 Total non-current restricted cash and restricted investments $ 3,394 $ 3,287 (1) Represents restricted cash related to collateral for letters of credit required in conjunction with lease agreements. See Note 9 for further discussion of our lease commitments. (2) Represents collateral held with financial institutions for risk-sharing arrangements. As of June 30, 2018 , and December 31, 2017 , approximately $21.9 million and $16.6 million of the collateral amount was in a trust account and invested in a money market fund. The amounts invested in money market funds are considered restricted cash and are carried at fair value, which approximates cost. See Note 15 for further discussion of our fair value measurement. As of December 31, 2017 , approximately $8.2 million of the collateral amount was invested in restricted certificates of deposit with remaining maturities of less than 12 months. The restricted investments are classified as held-to-maturity and stated at amortized cost. Fair value of the certificates of deposit is determined using Level 2 inputs and approximates amortized cost as of December 31, 2017 . See Note 9 for further discussion of our risk-sharing arrangements. (3) Represents cash held by Evolent on behalf of partners to process PBM and other claims. These are pass-through amounts and can fluctuate materially from period to period depending on the timing of when the claims are processed. (4) Represents restricted cash required as part of our capital only reinsurance agreement to provide balance sheet support to NMHC. There is no transfer of underwriting risk to Evolent and we are not at risk for any cash payments on behalf of NMHC as part of the agreement. The reinsurance agreement is further discussed in Note 9 . Approximately $2.5 million is in a FDIC participating bank account and approximately $7.5 million is invested in a money market fund. The amount invested in the money market fund is considered restricted cash and is carried at fair value, which approximates cost. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the statements of cash flows. As of June 30, 2018 2017 Cash and cash equivalents $ 197,983 $ 99,975 Restricted cash and restricted investments 57,054 22,119 Restricted investments included in restricted cash and restricted investments (712 ) (8,150 ) Total cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash shown in the consolidated statements of cash flows $ 254,325 $ 113,944 Notes Receivable Notes receivable are carried at the face amount of each note plus respective accrued interest receivable, less received payments. The Company does not typically carry notes receivable in the course of its regular business, but contributed $20.0 million in the form of an implementation funding loan (the “Implementation Loan”) under an agreement with a current customer entered during the year ended December 31, 2017 . The Implementation Loan is expected to support implementation services to assist the customer in expanding its Medicaid membership. The Implementation Loan carries a fixed interest rate of 2.5% per annum and the terms of the agreement governing the Implementation Loan require it to be repaid in ten equal monthly installments of $2.0 million , plus accrued interest, during 2018. As of June 30, 2018 , the outstanding principal balance of the Implementation Loan was $12.0 million , excluding approximately $0.2 million of accrued interest. As of December 31, 2017 , the outstanding principal balance of the Implementation Loan was $20.0 million , excluding approximately $0.1 million of accrued interest. Intangible Assets, Net Identified intangible assets are recorded at their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition and are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives using a method of amortization that reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible assets are used. The Company acquired additional intangible assets in conjunction with a strategic acquisition made during 2018. Information regarding the determination and allocation of the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities is further described within Note 4 . The following summarizes the estimated useful lives by asset classification: Corporate trade name 20 years Customer relationships 15-25 years Technology 5 years Provider network contracts 5 years Intangible assets are reviewed for impairment if circumstances indicate the Company may not be able to recover the asset’s carrying value. The Company evaluates recoverability by determining whether the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of that asset or group exceed the carrying value at the evaluation date. If the undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to cover the carrying value, the Company measures an impairment loss as the excess of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset or group over its fair value. See Note 7 for additional discussion regarding our intangible assets. Goodwill We recognize the excess of the purchase price, plus the fair value of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree, over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired as goodwill. Goodwill is not amortized, but is reviewed at least annually for indications of impairment, with consideration given to financial performance and other relevant factors. We perform impairment tests of goodwill at a reporting unit level, which is consistent with the way management evaluates our business. Goodwill is assigned to the reporting unit that benefits from the synergies arising from each business combination. Foreign Currency The Company established an international subsidiary during the first quarter of 2018. The functional currency of our international subsidiary is the Indian Rupee. We translate the financial statements of this subsidiary to U.S. dollars using month-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for revenue, costs, and expenses. Translation gains and losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a component of shareholders' equity. We recorded an immaterial “Foreign currency translation adjustment” on our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 , which resulted in an immaterial “Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)” balance on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2018 . Changes in Accounting Principles Adoption of ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers As discussed in Note 3 , the Company adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, effective January 1, 2018. The following is our updated accounting policy with respect to revenue recognition for our Services segment. Our Services segment derives revenue from two sources: (1) transformation services and (2) platform and operations services. Revenue is recognized when control of the services is transferred to our customers. We use the following 5-Step model, outlined in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), to determine revenue recognition on our contracts with customers: • Identify the contract(s) with a customer • Identify the performance obligations in the contract • Determine the transaction price • Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations • Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation Transformation Services Revenue Transformation services consist of strategic assessments, or Blueprint contracts, and implementation services whereby we assist the customer in launching its population health or health plan strategy. In certain cases, transformation services can also include revenue associated with our support of certain one-time wind-down activities for clients who are exiting a line of business or population. The transformation services are usually completed within 12 months. We generally receive a fixed fee for transformation services and recognize revenue over time using an input method based on hours incurred compared to the total estimated hours required to satisfy our performance obligation. Platform and Operations Services Revenue Platform and operations services generally include multi-year arrangements with customers to provide various population health, health plan operations and PBM services on an ongoing basis, as well as transition or run-out services to customers receiving primarily third-party administration (“TPA”) services. Our performance obligation in these arrangements is to provide an integrated suite of services, including access to our platform that is customized to meet the specialized needs of our customers. Generally we will apply the series guidance to the performance obligation as we have determined that each time increment is distinct. We primarily utilize a variable fee structure for these services that typically include a monthly payment that is calculated based on a specified per member per month rate, multiplied by the number of members that our partners are managing under a value-based care arrangement or a percentage of plan premiums. Our arrangements may also include other variable fees related to service level agreements, shared medical savings arrangements and other performance measures. Variable consideration is estimated using the most likely amount based on our historical experience and best judgment at the time. Due to the nature of our arrangements certain estimates may be constrained if it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will occur when the uncertainty is resolved. We recognize revenue for platform and operations services over time using the time elapsed output method. Fixed consideration is recognized ratably over the contract term. In accordance with the series guidance, we allocate variable consideration to the period to which the fees relate. Contracts with Multiple Performance Obligations Our contracts with customers may contain multiple performance obligations, primarily when the customer has requested both transformation services and platform and operations services as these services are distinct from one another. When a contract has multiple performance obligations, we allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation based on the relative standalone selling price using the expected cost margin approach. This approach requires estimates regarding both the level of effort it will take to satisfy the performance obligation as well as fees that will be received under the variable pricing model. We also take into consideration customer demographics, current market conditions, the scope of services and our overall pricing strategy and objectives when determining the standalone selling price. Principal vs Agent We occasionally use third parties to assist in satisfying our performance obligations. In order to determine whether we are the principal or agent in the arrangement, we will review each third party relationship on a contract by contract basis. We are an agent when our role is to arrange for another entity to provide the services to the customer. In these instances, we do not control the service before it is provided and will recognize revenue on a net basis. We are the principal when we control the good or service prior to transferring control to the customer. We recognize revenue on a gross basis when we are the principal in the arrangement. In accordance with the requirements under ASU 2014-09, the impact of adoption to our consolidated financial statements was as follows. See Note 5 for additional disclosures regarding Evolent's contracts with customers.

See “Part II - Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 2” in our 2017 Form 10-K for further information about the adoption. The amendments in the ASU require that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. A significant portion of the Company’s restricted cash consists of cash held on behalf of partners to process PBM claims. These are pass-through amounts and can fluctuate materially from period to period depending on the timing of when the claims are processed. Under the previous standard, there was no net impact to the statement of cash flows related to these amounts as the change in accounts payable was offset by the change in restricted cash. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-18, the change in restricted cash held on behalf of PBM partners would no longer net to zero, thereby potentially having a significant impact on cash flows from operations period over period. Given the pass-through nature of these PBM claim payments, the change in restricted cash held on behalf of PBM partners is presented within cash flows from financing activities on our statements of changes in cash flows under the updated requirements of ASU 2016-18. The following table summarizes the impact of the change in accounting principle to the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017 (in thousands): For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 As Reported Correction (1) As Revised Adjustments (2) As Adjusted Cash Flows from Operating Activities Changes in assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions: Accounts receivable, net $ (5,247 ) $ (2,655 ) $ (7,902 ) $ — $ (7,902 ) Accounts payable, net of change in restricted cash and restricted investments (2,514 ) 9,555 7,041 — 7,041 Net cash and restricted cash provided by (used in) operating activities (44,712 ) 6,900 (37,812 ) — (37,812 ) Cash Flows from Investing Activities Purchases and maturities of restricted investments — — — (3,200 ) (3,200 ) Change in restricted cash and restricted investments 3,200 (6,900 ) (3,700 ) 3,700 — Net cash and restricted cash provided by (used in) investing activities 7,739 (6,900 ) 839 500 1,339 Cash Flows from Financing Activities Change in restricted cash held on behalf of partners for claims processing — — — (21,997 ) (21,997 ) Net cash and restricted cash provided by (used in) financing activities 2,385 — 2,385 (21,997 ) (19,612 ) Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash (34,588 ) — (34,588 ) (21,497 ) (56,085 ) Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash as of beginning-of-period 134,563 — 134,563 35,466 170,029 Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash as of end-of-period $ 99,975 $ — $ 99,975 $ 13,969 $ 113,944 (1) Subsequent to the filing of the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2017, the Company identified an error related to the classification of restricted cash and restricted investments on its Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Accordingly, the Company corrected this error by revising the classification of certain changes in restricted cash and restricted investments within the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The Company assessed the materiality of the misstatement both quantitatively and qualitatively and determined the correction of this error to be immaterial to all prior consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. This column reflects the revisions required to correct the error in the Company’s originally reported Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017. See “Part II - Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 18” in our 2017 Form 10-K for further discussion of the error correction. (2) This column reflects the subsequent adjustments required to present revised amounts within the requirements of ASU 2016-18.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Recently Issued Accounting Standards	Recently Issued Accounting Standards Adoption of New Accounting Standards In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation - Stock Compensation: Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting . The update expands the scope of ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. The ASU specifies that ASC 718 applies to all share-based payment transactions in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. The amendments in the update also clarify that ASC 718 does not apply to share-based payments used to effectively provide (1) financing to the issuer or (2) awards granted in conjunction with selling goods or services to customers as part of a contract accounted for under ASC 606. The update is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than an entity’s adoption date of ASC 606. We adopted the requirements of this standard effective July 1, 2018, and there was no impact to our financial condition and results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 . Going forward, we do not expect the adoption to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , in order to clarify the principles of recognizing revenue. This standard establishes the core principle of recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The FASB defines a five-step process that systematically identifies the various components of the revenue recognition process, culminating with the recognition of revenue upon satisfaction of an entity’s performance obligations. By completing all five steps of the process, the core principles of revenue recognition will be achieved. The new revenue standard (including updates) is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The guidance permits two methods of adoption: i) the full retrospective method applying the standard to each prior reporting period presented, or ii) the modified retrospective method with a cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application. The standard also allows entities to apply certain practical expedients at their discretion. The Company adopted the standard effective January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective method for only contracts that were not completed at the date of initial application. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under Accounting Standards Codification ASC 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historic accounting under ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 605”). The adoption of this standard resulted in changes related to revenue recognition for contracts that contain certain features, such as variable consideration. These changes generally accelerate revenue recognition. In addition, certain customer setup costs, which have historically been expensed as incurred, will now be capitalized. Evolent recognized the cumulative effect of applying the new revenue standard as a $17.3 million adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings, including non-controlling interests, in the first quarter of 2018, primarily as a result of capitalization of expenses related to contract acquisition and fulfillment costs and acceleration of revenue due to variable consideration estimation. See Note 5 for additional disclosures regarding Evolent's contracts with customers. See Note 2 for updated revenue recognition accounting policy and the impact of adopting the new revenue recognition standard on Evolent’s financial statements. Future Adoption of New Accounting Standards In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments . With respect to assets measured at amortized cost, such as held-to-maturity assets, the update requires presentation of the amortized cost net of a credit loss allowance. The update eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold that was previously required prior to recognizing a credit loss on financial instruments. The credit loss estimate can now reflect an entity’s current estimate of all future expected credit losses as opposed to the previous standard, when an entity only considered past events and current conditions. With respect to available for sale debt securities, the update requires that credit losses be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted as of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We intend to adopt the requirements of this standard effective January 1, 2020, and are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption on our financial condition and results of operations. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases , which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e., lessees and lessors). The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight‑line basis over the term of the lease, respectively. A lessee is also required to record a right‑of‑use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. ASU 2016-02 (ASC Topic 842) supersedes the previous leases standard, ASC 840, Leases . The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The Company has formulated an implementation team that is currently engaged in the evaluation process. We intend to adopt the requirements of this standard effective January 1, 2019, using a modified retrospective approach. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, which is intended to make targeted improvements to ASU 2016-02. The amendments in ASU 2018-11 provide entities with an additional (and optional) transition method to adopt the new leases standard by recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The requirements of ASU 2018-11 are effective on the same date as the requirements of ASU 2016-02. Pursuant to ASU 2018-11, the Company will apply the new standard at its adoption date rather than at the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retaining earnings. We anticipate that this standard will have a material impact on our consolidated balance sheets.

Organizational Transactions [Abstract]
Transactions	Transactions Business Combinations New Mexico Health Connections On January 2, 2018 , the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, True Health, completed its previously announced acquisition of assets related to NMHC’s commercial, small and large group business. The assets include a health plan management services organization with a leadership team and employee base with experience working locally with providers to run NMHC’s suite of preventive, disease and care management programs. The consideration paid by the Company in connection with the acquisition consisted of $10.3 million in cash (subject to certain adjustments), of which $0.3 million was deposited in an escrow account. This acquisition is expected to allow the Company to leverage its platform to support a value-based, provider-centric model of care in New Mexico. The Company commenced operations of the commercial health plan and began reporting the results of True Health as a new reportable segment during the first quarter of 2018. See Note 17 for further information about the Company’s segment reporting. At the time of the acquisition, the Company also entered into a managed services agreement (“MSA”) with NMHC to support its ongoing business. During the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company also entered into a reinsurance arrangement with NMHC to provide balance sheet support. See Note 9 for further discussion of the reinsurance arrangement. The MSA and reinsurance arrangement were considered separate transactions and accounted for outside of the business combination. Therefore, there is no allocation of purchase price to these arrangements at fair value. The Company incurred approximately $1.2 million in transaction costs related to the NHMC transaction, materially all of which were recorded within “Selling, general and administrative expenses” on our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2017. The transaction will be accounted for as a business combination using purchase accounting. The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of January 2, 2018 , as follows (in thousands): Purchase consideration Cash paid to NMHC $ 10,000 Cash paid to escrow agent 252 Total consideration $ 10,252 Identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed Customer relationships $ 2,700 Provider network contracts 2,300 Above market lease (100 ) Accrued compensation and employee benefits (474 ) Goodwill 5,826 Net assets acquired $ 10,252 Identifiable intangible assets associated with customer relationships and provider network contracts will be amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 15 and 5 years, respectively. The customer relationships represent existing contracts in place to provide health plan services to a number of large and small group customers throughout the state of New Mexico. The provider network contracts represent a network of hospitals and physicians to service the health plan customers. The fair value of the customer relationship intangible asset was primarily determined using the income approach. The income approach estimates fair value for an asset based on the present value of cash flows projected to be generated by the asset. Projected cash flows are discounted at a required rate of return that reflects the relative risk of achieving the cash flows and the time value of money. The fair value of the provider network intangible asset was primarily determined using the cost approach. The cost approach estimates the fair value for an asset based on the amount it would cost to replace the asset. Goodwill is calculated as the difference between the acquisition date fair value of the total consideration and the fair value of the net assets acquired, and represents the future economic benefits that we expect to achieve as a result of the acquisition. Goodwill associated with the acquisition of True Health is allocated entirely to the True Health segment, as all of the assets and liabilities of the acquired business are assigned to the True Health segment. The goodwill is attributable primarily to the acquired workforce and expected cost synergies, none of which qualify for recognition as a separate intangible asset. Goodwill is considered an indefinite-lived asset. The transaction is an asset acquisition for tax purposes, and as such the tax-basis in the acquired assets is equal to the book-basis fair value calculated and is recorded at the True Health legal entity. Therefore, no opening balance sheet deferred tax liability was recorded. The amounts above reflect management’s preliminary estimate of the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on a valuation performed using currently available information. Any remaining adjustments are expected to be finalized within one year of the acquisition date. True Health is a separate segment, and its results of operations are provided in Note 17 - Segment Reporting. Pro Forma Financial Information (Unaudited) The unaudited pro forma Consolidated Statements of Operations presented below gives effect to (1) the NMHC transaction as if it took place on January 1, 2017. The following pro forma information includes adjustments to: • reclassify transaction costs related to the NMHC transaction to the period beginning January 1, 2017; • record revenue and expenses related to the MSA beginning January 1, 2017; and • record amortization expenses related to intangible assets beginning January 1, 2017, for intangible assets acquired as part of the NMHC transaction. This pro forma data is presented for informational purposes only and does not purport to be indicative of the results of future operations or of the results that would have occurred had the transactions described above occurred in the specified prior periods. The pro forma adjustments are based on available information and assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable to reflect the impact of these transactions on the Company’s historical financial information on a pro forma basis (in thousands, except per share data).

Class B units received by the Company from relevant Investor Stockholders are simultaneously exchanged for an equivalent number of Class A units of Evolent Health LLC, and Evolent Health LLC cancels the Class B units it receives in the Class B Exchange. The cancellation of the Class B units results in an increase in the Company’s economic interest in Evolent Health LLC. March 2018 Private Sale In March 2018, The Advisory Board sold 3.0 million shares of the Company’s Class A common Stock in a private sale (the “March 2018 Private Sale”). The shares sold in the March 2018 Private Sale consisted of 1.2 million existing shares of the Company’s Class A common stock owned by The Advisory Board and 1.8 million newly-issued shares of the Company’s Class A common stock received by The Advisory Board pursuant to a Class B Exchange for all of its outstanding shares of the Company’s Class B common stock and Class B units. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the March 2018 Private Sale. As a result of this Class B Exchange and Evolent Health LLC’s cancellation of the Class B units during the March 2018 Private Sale, the Company’s economic interest in Evolent Health LLC increased from 96.6% to 98.9% immediately following the March 2018 Private Sale, and, accordingly, we reclassified a portion of our non-controlling interests into shareholders’ equity attributable to Evolent Health, Inc. August 2017 Primary Offering In August 2017, the Company completed a primary offering of 8.8 million shares of its Class A common stock at a price to the public of $19.85 per share and a corresponding price to the underwriters of $19.01 per share (the “August 2017 Primary”). This offering resulted in net cash proceeds to the Company of approximately $166.9 million (gross proceeds of $175.0 million , net of $8.1 million in underwriting discounts and stock issuance costs). For each share of Class A common stock issued by Evolent Health, Inc., the Company received a corresponding Class A common unit from Evolent Health LLC in exchange for contributing the issuance proceeds to Evolent Health LLC. As a result of the Class A common stock and Class A common units issued during the August 2017 Primary, the Company’s economic interest in Evolent Health LLC increased from 96.1% to 96.6% immediately following the August 2017 Primary, and, accordingly, we reclassified a portion of our non-controlling interests into shareholders’ equity attributable to Evolent Health, Inc. Secondary Offerings The Investor Stockholders initiated several Class B Exchanges as part of various secondary offerings during 2017, thus increasing the Company’s economic interest in Evolent Health LLC, as discussed below. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the secondary offerings described below. June 2017 Secondary Offering In June 2017, the Company completed a secondary offering of 4.5 million shares of its Class A common stock at a price to the underwriters of $25.87 per share (the “June 2017 Secondary”). The shares sold in the June 2017 Secondary consisted of 0.7 million existing shares of the Company’s Class A common stock owned and held by certain Investor Stockholders and 3.8 million newly-issued shares of the Company’s Class A common stock received by certain Investor Stockholders pursuant to Class B Exchanges. As a result of these Class B Exchanges and Evolent Health LLC’s cancellation of the Class B units during the June 2017 Secondary, the Company’s economic interest in Evolent Health LLC increased from 90.5% to 96.1% immediately following the June 2017 Secondary, and, accordingly, we reclassified a portion of our non-controlling interests into shareholders’ equity attributable to Evolent Health, Inc. May 2017 Secondary Offering In May 2017, the Company completed a secondary offering of 7.0 million shares of its Class A common stock at a price to the underwriters of $24.30 per share (the “May 2017 Secondary”). The shares were sold by the Investor Stockholders and certain management selling stockholders (together with the Investor Stockholders, the “Selling Stockholders”). The shares sold in the May 2017 Secondary consisted of 3.1 million existing shares of the Company’s Class A common stock owned and held by the Selling Stockholders, 3.8 million newly-issued shares of the Company’s Class A common stock received by certain Investor Stockholders pursuant to Class B Exchanges and 0.1 million shares issued upon the exercise of options by certain management selling stockholders. As a result of these Class B Exchanges and Evolent Health LLC’s cancellation of the Class B units during the May 2017 Secondary, the Company’s economic interest in Evolent Health LLC increased from 84.9% to 90.5% immediately following the May 2017 Secondary, and, accordingly, we reclassified a portion of our non-controlling interests into shareholders’ equity attributable to Evolent Health, Inc. March 2017 Secondary Offering In March 2017, the Company completed a secondary offering of 7.5 million shares of its Class A common stock at a price to the underwriters of $19.53 per share (the “March 2017 Secondary”). The shares sold in the March 2017 Secondary consisted of 3.1 million existing shares of the Company’s Class A common stock owned and held by the Investor Stockholders and 4.4 million newly-issued shares of the Company’s Class A common stock received by certain Investor Stockholders pursuant to Class B Exchanges. As a result of these Class B Exchanges and Evolent Health LLC’s cancellation of the Class B units during the March 2017 Secondary, the Company’s economic interest in Evolent Health LLC increased from 77.4% to 83.9% immediately following the March 2017 Secondary, and, accordingly, we reclassified a portion of our non-controlling interests into shareholders’ equity attributable to Evolent Health, Inc. In connection with the March 2017 Secondary, the underwriters exercised, in full, their option to purchase an additional 1.1 million shares of Class A common stock (the “March 2017 Option to Purchase Additional Shares”) from the Investor Stockholders at a price of $19.53 per share. The March 2017 Option to Purchase Additional Shares closed in May 2017. The shares sold in the March 2017 Option to Purchase Additional Shares consisted of 0.5 million existing shares of the Company’s Class A common stock owned and held by certain Investor Stockholders. It also included 0.6 million newly-issued shares of the Company’s Class A common stock received by certain Investor Stockholders pursuant to Class B Exchanges. As a result of the Class B Exchanges and Evolent Health LLC’s cancellation of the Class B units during the March 2017 Option to Purchase Additional Shares, the Company’s economic interest in Evolent Health LLC increased from 83.9% to 84.9% immediately following the March 2017 Option to Purchase Additional Shares, and, accordingly, we reclassified a portion of our non-controlling interests into shareholders’ equity attributable to Evolent Health, Inc. The June 2017 Secondary, May 2017 Secondary, March 2017 Secondary and March 2017 Option to Purchase Additional Shares are collectively referred to as the “2017 Secondary Offerings.” The Company’s economic interest in Evolent Health LLC will increase if further Class B Exchanges occur. Asset Acquisitions Accordion Health, Inc. On June 8, 2017 , the Company entered into an agreement to acquire Accordion Health, Inc. (“Accordion”) for $3.2 million (the “Accordion Purchase Agreement”). Accordion provides technology that the Company believes enhances its risk-adjustment factor (“RAF”) services to its partners. In addition to technology assets, the software development team from Accordion joined Evolent as full-time employees. Under the terms of the Accordion Purchase Agreement, members of the software development team will be eligible for an additional $0.8 million earn-out, contingent upon the completion of specified software development targets. We accounted for the transaction as an asset acquisition as substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired was concentrated in a single identified asset, thus satisfying the requirements of the screen test introduced in ASU 2017-01. The assets acquired in the transaction were measured based on the amount of cash paid to Accordion, including transaction costs, as the fair value of the assets given was more readily determinable than the fair value of the assets received. We classified and designated the identifiable assets acquired as a $3.3 million technology intangible asset, inclusive of approximately $0.1 million of capitalized transaction costs. We also assessed and determined the useful life of the acquired intangible assets to be five years, subject to amortization. The Company will account for the contingent earn-out as a post-acquisition expense as the specified software development targets are achieved. The transaction was a taxable stock acquisition and the Company recognized deferred tax liability of $2.0 million related to the book-tax basis difference in the acquired asset, which resulted in a $2.0 million increase in the value of the intangible asset. The additional deferred tax liability represents a future source of taxable income that enables the Company to release some of its previously established valuation allowance, the reduction of which is accounted for outside of acquisition accounting, resulting in income tax benefit.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition As discussed in Note 3 , we adopted ASU 2014-09, effective January 1, 2018, which introduces ASC 606. See Note 2 for the updated revenue recognition policy and the impact of adopting the new revenue recognition standard on the Company’s financial statements. The following are other relevant disclosures as required by the adoption of ASU 2014-09. Provisions within ASC 606 are only applicable to revenues derived from our Services segment. Disaggregation of Revenue The following table represents Evolent’s Services segment revenue disaggregated by revenue type for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 (in thousands), excluding revenues from our True Health segment and from our downside risk sharing arrangements through our insurance subsidiary, which are accounted for under ASC 944, Financial Services-Insurance . For the Three For the Six Months Ended Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2018 2018 Services Revenue Transformation services $ 8,215 $ 14,720 Platform and operations services 110,836 219,284 Transaction Price Allocated to the Remaining Performance Obligations For contracts with a term that is greater than one year, we have allocated approximately $139.5 million of transaction price to performance obligations that are unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied as of June 30, 2018 . We do not include variable consideration that is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation accounted for under the series guidance in the calculation. As a result, the balance represents the value of the fixed consideration in our long-term contracts that will be recognized as revenue in a future period and excludes the majority of our platform and operations revenue, which is primarily derived based on variable consideration as discussed in Note 2 . We expect to recognize revenue on approximately 65% of these remaining performance obligations by December 31, 2019, with the remaining balance to be recognized thereafter. However, because our existing contracts may be canceled or renegotiated including for reasons outside our control, the amount of this revenue that we actually receive may be less than this estimate. Contract Balances Contract balances consist of accounts receivable, contract assets and deferred revenue. Contract assets are recorded when the right to consideration for services is conditional on something other than the passage of time. Contract assets relating to unbilled receivables are transferred to accounts receivable when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. We classify contract assets as current or noncurrent based on the timing of our rights to the unconditional payments. Our contract assets are generally classified as current and recorded within “Contract assets” on our consolidated balance sheets. Deferred revenue includes advance customer payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized. We classify deferred revenue as current or noncurrent based on the timing of when we expect to recognize revenue. Our current deferred revenue is recorded within “Deferred revenue” on our consolidated balance sheets, and noncurrent deferred revenue is recorded within “Other long-term liabilities” on our consolidated balance sheets. The following table provides information about receivables, contract assets and deferred revenue from contracts with customers (in thousands): As of As of June 30, January 1, 2018 2018 Receivables (1) $ 69,064 $ 47,131 Short-term contract assets 3,008 3,710 Long-term contract assets 1,267 1,791 Short-term deferred revenue 29,818 26,147 Long-term deferred revenue 1,405 493 (1) Excludes pharmacy claims receivable and premiums receivable During the six months ended June 30, 2018 , our contract asset balance decreased by $1.2 million , primarily as a result of transfers to receivables from contract assets recognized at the beginning of the period. During the six months ended June 30, 2018 , our deferred revenue increased by $4.6 million , primarily as a result of new contracts and increased pre-billing for services. The amount of revenue recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 , from amounts included in deferred revenue at the beginning of the period was $4.4 million and $13.3 million , respectively. The amount of revenue recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 from performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods, due to net gain share, service-level agreement true-ups and changes in estimates, was $2.5 million and $2.1 million , respectively. Contract Costs Certain bonuses and commissions earned by our sales team are considered incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer that we expect to be recoverable. The capitalized contract acquisition costs are classified as noncurrent assets and recorded within “Contract cost assets” on our consolidated balance sheets. Amortization expense is recorded within “Selling, general and administrative expenses” on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2018 , the Company had $1.9 million of contract acquisition cost assets, net of accumulated amortization, and amortiza tion expense of less than $0.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 . In our platforms and operations arrangements, we incur certain costs related to the implementation of our platform before we begin to satisfy our performance obligation to the customer. The costs, which we expect to recover, are considered costs to fulfill a contract. Our contract fulfillment costs primarily include our employee labor costs and third party vendor costs. The capitalized contract fulfillment costs are classified as noncurrent and recorded within “Contract cost assets” on our consolidated balance sheets. Amortization expense is recorded within “Cost of revenue” on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2018 , the Company had $9.0 million of contract fulfillment cost assets, net of accumulated amortization, and amortization expense of $0.5 million and $1.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 , respectively. The majority of the contract cost balance was recorded as part of the transition adjustment that was recorded upon implementation of ASC 606. These costs are deferred and then amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of benefit that we have determined to be five years. The period of benefit was based on our technology, the nature of our customer arrangements and other factors.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]
Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net	Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net Goodwill Goodwill has an estimated indefinite life and is not amortized; rather, it is reviewed for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. The Company has two reporting units: Services and True Health. Our annual goodwill impairment review occurs during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year. In interim periods between annual goodwill reviews, we also evaluate qualitative factors that could cause us to believe the estimated fair value of each of our reporting units may be lower than the carrying value and trigger a quantitative assessment, including, but not limited to (i) macroeconomic conditions, (ii) industry and market considerations, (iii) our overall financial performance, including an analysis of our current and projected cash flows, revenues and earnings, (iv) a sustained decrease in share price and (v) other relevant entity-specific events including changes in strategy, partners, or litigation. We did not identify any qualitative factors that would trigger a quantitative goodwill impairment test during the six months ended June 30, 2018 . We will perform our annual impairment test as of October 31, 2018 . The following tables summarize the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill, by reportable segment, for the periods presented (in thousands): For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 Services True Health Consolidated Balance as of beginning-of-period (1) $ 628,186 $ — $ 628,186 Goodwill Acquired (2) 1,234 5,826 7,060 Measurement period adjustments (2) 128 — 128 Foreign currency translation (2) (92 ) — (92 ) Balance as of end-of-period $ 629,456 $ 5,826 $ 635,282 (1) Net of cumulative inception to date impairment of $160.6 million .

The Company acquired certain assets from Vestica in March 2016. The transaction included additional consideration of up to $4.0 million , which was being held in escrow and was recorded within “Prepaid expenses and other non-current assets” on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. In February 2018, the Company and Vestica reached an agreement to settle $3.5 million of the $4.0 million in escrow. Based on the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company reclassified the unamortized portion of the additional consideration from “Prepaid expenses and other non-current assets” into “Customer relationships” as of the settlement date. See Note 4 for further information about the NMHC transaction and see “ Part II - Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 4 ” of our 2017 Form 10-K for further information about the Vestica transaction.

Intangible assets are reviewed for impairment if circumstances indicate the Company may not be able to recover the assets’ carrying value. We did not identify any circumstances during six months ended June 30, 2018 , that would require an impairment test for our intangible assets.

Long-term Debt

Long-term Debt	6 Months Ended

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Long-term Debt	Long-term Debt In December 2016, the Company issued $125.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 2.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2021 (the “2021 Notes”) in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The 2021 Notes were issued at par for net proceeds of $120.4 million . We incurred $4.6 million of debt issuance costs in connection with the 2021 Notes, which we are amortizing to non-cash interest expense using the straight line method over the contractual term of the 2021 Notes, since this method was not materially different from the effective interest method. The closing of the private placement of the 2021 Notes occurred on December 5, 2016 . Holders of the 2021 Notes are entitled to cash interest payments, which are payable semiannually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, beginning on June 1, 2017 , at a rate equal to 2.00% per annum. The 2021 Notes will mature on December 1, 2021 , unless earlier repurchased or converted in accordance with their terms prior to such date. In addition, holders of the 2021 Notes may require the Company to repurchase their 2021 Notes upon the occurrence of a fundamental change at a price equal to 100.00% of the principal amount of the 2021 Notes being repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest. Upon maturity, and at the option of the holders of the 2021 Notes, the principal amount of the notes may be settled via shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 , the Company recorded approximately $0.6 million and $1.2 million , respectively, in interest expense and $0.2 million and $0.5 million , respectively, in non-cash interest expense related to the amortization of deferred financing costs. The 2021 Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, based on an initial conversion rate of 41.6082 shares of Class A common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 2021 Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $24.03 per share of the Company’s Class A common stock. In the aggregate, the 2021 Notes are initially convertible into 5.2 million shares of the Company’s Class A common stock (excluding any shares issuable by the Company upon a conversion in connection with a make-whole provision upon a fundamental change under the indenture between Evolent Health, Inc. and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, related to the 2.00% convertible senior notes due 2021, dated as of December 5, 2016). The 2021 Notes are convertible, in multiples of $1,000 principal amount, at the option of the holders at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date. Upon conversion, we will deliver for each $1,000 principal amount of notes converted a number of shares of our Class A common stock equal to the applicable conversion rate (together with a cash payment in lieu of delivering any fractional share) on the third business day following the relevant conversion date. Convertible Senior Notes Carrying Value While the 2021 Notes are recorded on our accompanying unaudited interim consolidated balance sheets at their net carrying value of $121.9 million as of June 30, 2018 , the 2021 Notes are privately traded by qualified institutional buyers (within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) and their fair value was $139.8 million , based on a traded price on June 27 , 2018, a Level 2 input. The fair value as of December 31, 2017 , was $120.4 million , based on a traded price on December 29, 2017, a Leve l 2 input. The 2021 Notes also have embedded conversion options and contingent interest provisions, which have not been recorded as separate financial instruments. The following table summarizes the carrying value of the long-term debt (in thousands): As of As of June 30, December 31, 2018 2017 Carrying value $ 121,853 $ 121,394 Unamortized discount 3,147 3,606 Principal amount $ 125,000 $ 125,000 Remaining amortization period (years) 3.4 3.9

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Commitments and Contingencies UPMC Reseller Agreement The Company and UPMC are parties to a reseller, services and non-competition agreement, dated August 31, 2011, which was amended and restated by the parties on June 27, 2013 (as amended through the date hereof, the “UPMC Reseller Agreement”). Under the terms of the UPMC Reseller Agreement, UPMC has appointed the Company as a non-exclusive reseller of certain services, subject to certain conditions and limitations specified in the UPMC Reseller Agreement. In consideration for the Company’s obligations under the UPMC Reseller Agreement and subject to certain conditions described therein, UPMC has agreed not to sell certain products and services directly to a defined list of 20 of the Company’s customers. The Advisory Board Company Reseller Agreement The Company and The Advisory Board were parties to a services, reseller, and non-competition agreement, dated August 31, 2011, which was amended and restated by the parties on June 27, 2013, and May 1, 2015 (as so amended, “The Advisory Board Company Reseller Agreement”), which terminated on July 20, 2017. Under the terms of The Advisory Board Company Reseller Agreement, The Advisory Board provided certain services to the Company on an as-requested basis. In addition, The Advisory Board had a right of first offer to provide certain specified services during the term of the Agreement and had the right to collect certain fees for specified referrals. Pursuant to the Advisory Board Company Reseller Agreement, Evolent entered into a services agreement with The Advisory Board in October 2016 whereby The Advisory Board will provide certain services to the Company in conjunction with risk adjustment services provided to one of our customers. Contingencies Tax Receivables Agreement In connection with the Offering Reorganization, the Company entered into the Tax Receivables Agreement (the “TRA”) with certain of its investors, which provides for the payment by the Company to these investors of 85% of the amount of the tax benefits, if any, that the Company is deemed to realize as a result of increases in our tax basis related to exchanges of Class B common units as well as tax benefits attributable to the future utilization of pre-IPO NOLs. These payment obligations are obligations of the Company. For purposes of the TRA, the benefit deemed realized by the Company will be computed by comparing its actual income tax liability to the amount of such taxes that the Company would have been required to pay had there been no increase to the tax basis of the assets of the Company as a result of the exchanges or had the Company had no NOL carryforward balance. The actual amount and timing of any payments under the TRA will vary depending upon a number of factors, including: • the timing of the exchanges and the price of the Class A shares at the time of the transaction, triggering a tax basis increase in the Company’s asset and a corresponding benefit to be realized under the TRA; and • the amount and timing of our taxable income - the Company will be required to pay 85% of the tax savings as and when realized, if any. If the Company does not have taxable income, it will not be required to make payments under the TRA for that taxable year because no tax savings were actually realized. Due to the items noted above, and the fact that the Company is in a full valuation allowance position such that the deferred tax assets related to the Company’s historical pre-IPO losses and tax basis increase benefit from exchanges have not been realized, the Company has not recorded a liability pursuant to the TRA. Litigation Matters We are engaged from time to time in certain legal disputes arising in the ordinary course of business, including employment claims. When the likelihood of a loss contingency becomes probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, we accrue a liability for the loss contingency. We continue to review accruals and adjust them to reflect ongoing negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other relevant information. To the extent new information is obtained, and our views on the probable outcomes of claims, suits, assessments, investigations or legal proceedings change, changes in our accrued liabilities would be recorded in the period in which such determination is made. The Company is not aware of any legal proceedings or claims as of June 30, 2018 , that the Company believes will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or result of operations. Commitments Commitments to Equity-Method Investees The Company has contractual arrangements with its equity-method investees that will require the Company to provide operating capital support in the form of equity financing of up to $5.4 million as of June 30, 2018 , in accordance with the Company’s contribution agreements with its equity-method investees. These obligations are outside of Company’s control and payment could be requested during 2018. The Company did no t have any contingent commitments to equity-method investees as of December 31, 2017 . Letter of Credit During the first quarter of 2017, the Company entered into an agreement to provide a letter of credit, for up to $5.0 million , to assist a customer in demonstrating adequate reserves to the customer’s state regulatory authorities. The letter of credit is effective from September 30, 2017 through June 30, 2019, and carries a quarterly facility rental fee of 0.80% per annum on the amount of the outstanding balance. The letter of credit will terminate after June 30, 2019. The letter of credit is presented at the face amount plus accrued facility rental fee, less received payments. There was no outstanding balance related to this letter of credit as of June 30, 2018 , or December 31, 2017 . Lease Commitments The Company has entered into lease agreements for its primary office locations in Arlington, Virginia, Lisle, Illinois, Chicago, Illinois, Albuquerque, New Mexico and Pune, India. Certain leases acquired as part of the Valence Health transaction included existing sublease agreements for office locations in Chicago, Illinois. The Company also has several smaller leases in various locations within Texas and California. Total rental expense, net of sublease income, on operating leases was $3.5 million and $6.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 , respectively, and $2.4 million and $5.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 , respectively. In connection with various lease agreements, the Company is required to maintain $3.7 million in letters of credit and, as such, held $3.7 million in restricted cash and restricted investments as collateral for the letters of credit as of June 30, 2018 . Indemnifications The Company’s customer agreements generally include a provision by which the Company agrees to defend its partners against third-party claims (a) for death, bodily injury, or damage to personal property caused by Company negligence or willful misconduct, (b) by former or current Company employees arising from such managed service agreements, (c) for intellectual property infringement under specified conditions and (d) for Company violation of applicable laws, and to indemnify them against any damages and costs awarded in connection with such claims. To date, the Company has not incurred any material costs as a result of such indemnities and has not accrued any liabilities related to such obligations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Registration rights agreement We entered into a registration rights agreement with The Advisory Board, UPMC, TPG and another investor to register for sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, shares of our Class A common stock, including those delivered in exchange for Class B common stock and Class B common units. Subject to certain conditions and limitations, this agreement provides these investors with certain demand, piggyback and shelf registration rights. The registration rights granted under the registration rights agreement will terminate upon the date the holders of shares that are a party thereto no longer hold any such shares that are entitled to registration rights. Pursuant to our contractual obligations under this agreement, we filed a registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC on July 28, 2016, which was declared effective on August 12, 2016. Pursuant to certain terms of the registration rights agreement, certain Investor Stockholders sold 19.7 million shares of the Company’s Class A common stock during the 2017 Secondary Offerings, as discussed in Note 4 . The Company incurred $1.0 million and $1.3 million in expenses related to the 2017 Secondary Offerings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 , pursuant to the terms of the registration rights agreement. The expenses were recorded within “Selling, general and administrative expenses” on our Consolidated Statements of Operations. We did not incur any expenses related to secondary offerings or other sales of shares by our Investor Stockholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 . We will continue to pay all expenses relating to any demand, piggyback or shelf registration, other than underwriting discounts and commissions and any transfer taxes, subject to specified conditions and limitations. The registration rights agreement includes customary indemnification provisions, including indemnification of the participating holders of shares of Class A common stock and their directors, officers and employees by us for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities in respect thereof and expenses to which such holders may become subject under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, state law or otherwise. Guarantees As part of our strategy to support certain of our partners in the Next Generation Accountable Care Program, we entered into upside and downside risk sharing arrangements. Our downside risk-sharing arrangements are limited to our fees and are executed through our wholly-owned captive insurance company. To satisfy the capital requirements of our insurance entity as well as state insurance regulators, Evolent entered into letters of credit of $21.9 million as of June 30, 2018 , to secure potential losses related to insurance services. This amount is in excess of our actuarial assessment of loss. Reinsurance Agreement During the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company entered into a 15 -month, $10.0 million capital-only reinsurance arrangement with NMHC, expiring on December 31, 2018. The purpose of the capital-only reinsurance is to provide balance sheet support to NMHC. There is no uncertainty to the outcome of the arrangement as there is no transfer of underwriting risk to Evolent or True Health, and neither Evolent nor True Health is at risk for any cash payments on behalf of NMHC. As a result, this arrangement does not qualify for reinsurance accounting. The Company will record a quarterly fee of approximately $0.2 million as non-operating income on its consolidated statements of operations and will maintain $10.0 million in restricted cash and restricted investments on its consolidated balance sheets for the duration of the reinsurance agreement. Credit and Concentration Risk The Company is subject to significant concentrations of credit risk related to cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. As of June 30, 2018 , approximately 59.2% of our $254.3 million of cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash) were held in bank deposits with FDIC participating banks, approximately 40.4% were held in money market funds and less than 1.0% were held in international banks. While the Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions with high credit ratings, it often maintains these deposits in federally insured financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any realized losses on cash and cash equivalents to date. The Company is also subject to significant concentration of accounts receivable risk as a substantial portion of our trade accounts receivable is derived from a small number of our partners. The following table summarizes those partners who represented at least 10.0% of our trade accounts receivable for the periods presented: As of As of June 30, December 31, 2018 2017 Customer B 27.0 % 32.1 % Customer C * 11.8 % Customer D * 16.5 % * Represents less than 10.0% of the respective balance In addition, the Company is subject to significant concentration of revenue risk as a substantial portion of our revenue is derived from a small number of contractual relationships with our operating partners. The following table summarizes those partners who represented at least 10.0% of our revenue for the periods presented: For the Three For the Six Months Ended Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2018 2017 2018 2017 Customer A 18.0 % 19.2 % 19.0 % 18.2 % Customer B 10.0 % * 10.3 % * Customer C * 10.4 % * 10.8 % Customer D * 10.7 % * * * Represents less than 10.0% of the respective balance

Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share	Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share available for common stockholders (in thousands, except per share data): For the Three For the Six Months Ended Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2018 2017 2018 2017 Net income (loss) $ (10,031 ) $ (19,698 ) $ (24,096 ) $ (42,848 ) Less: Net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests (115 ) (2,793 ) (554 ) (7,930 ) Net income (loss) available for common shareholders (1) (2) $ (9,916 ) $ (16,905 ) $ (23,542 ) $ (34,918 ) Weighted-average common shares outstanding (2) (3) 77,209 59,478 76,297 56,057 Earnings (Loss) per Common Share Basic $ (0.13 ) $ (0.28 ) $ (0.31 ) $ (0.62 ) Diluted (0.13 ) (0.28 ) (0.31 ) (0.62 ) (1) For periods of net loss, net income (loss) available for common shareholders is the same for both basic and diluted purposes. (2) Each Class B common unit of Evolent Health LLC can be exchanged (together with a corresponding number of shares of our Class B common stock) for one share of our Class A common stock. As holders exchange their Class B common shares for Class A common shares, our interest in Evolent Health LLC will increase. Therefore, shares of our Class B common stock are not considered dilutive shares for the purposes of calculating our diluted earnings (loss) per common share as related adjustment to net income (loss) available for common shareholders would equally offset the additional shares, resulting in the same earnings (loss) per common share. (3) For periods of net loss, shares used in the earnings (loss) per common share calculation represent basic shares as using diluted shares would be anti-dilutive. Anti-dilutive shares (in thousands) excluded from the calculation of weighted-average common shares presented above are presented below: For the Three For the Six Months Ended Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2018 2017 2018 2017 Exchangeable Class B common stock 862 8,677 1,498 11,994 Restricted stock units ("RSUs") 938 607 784 546 Stock options and performance-based stock options 2,591 3,201 2,378 3,059 Convertible senior notes 5,201 5,201 5,201 5,201 Total 9,592 17,686 9,861 20,800

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes For interim periods, we recognize an income tax provision (benefit) based on our estimated annual effective tax rate expected for the full year. The Company recorded $0.1 million and $0.1 million in income tax benefit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 , respectively, which resulted in effective tax rates of 1.0% and 0.4% , respectively. The Company recorded $0.7 million and $0.3 million in income tax benefit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 , respectively, which resulted in effective tax rates of 3.4% and 0.7% , respectively. The income tax benefit recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 , primarily relates to the change in indefinite-lived components and components expected to reverse outside of the net operating loss carryover period as part of the outside basis difference in our partnership interest in Evolent Health LLC. With the exception of these components, the Company continues to record a valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets. As a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) enacted on December 22, 2017 , and subsequent state jurisdictions conforming to certain provisions of the Tax Act with respect to the indefinite carryforward period and 80% taxable income limitation on NOLs arising after December 31, 2017, these components of the deferred tax liabilities are comprised of the entire nonconforming state indefinite-lived components and those outside of the NOL carryforward period and a portion of our federal and conforming states components that could not be used as a source of income. As of December 31, 2017 , the Company had recorded a provisional estimate of the financial statement impact of the Tax Act in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 , the change in the initial provisional estimates is immaterial. The C ompany will continue to evaluate any further adjustments necessary through 2018. As a result of the increase in our ownership of Evolent Health LLC following the March 2018 Private Sale discussed in Note 4 above, the Company reduced the indefinite portion of the deferred tax liability related to the book basis compared to the tax basis in our partnership interest in Evolent Health LLC by approximately $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 . The effect of this change in the deferred tax liability was recorded as additional paid-in capital. As a result of the increase in our ownership of Evolent Health LLC following the 2017 Secondary Offerings discussed in Note 4 above, the Company reduced the indefinite portion of the deferred tax liability related to the book basis compared to the tax basis in our partnership interest in Evolent Health LLC by approximately $8.6 million and $11.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 . The effect of this change in the deferred tax liability was recorded as additional paid-in capital. As of December 31, 2017 , the Company had unrecognized tax benefits of $0.8 million that, if recognized, would not affect the effective tax rate. As of June 30, 2018 , there are no changes to the unrecognized tax benefits. The Company does not recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions due to the current NOL position. The Company is not currently subject to income tax audits in any U.S., state, or foreign jurisdictions for any tax year. Tax Receivables Agreement In connection with the Offering Reorganization, the Company entered into the TRA with certain of its investors, which provides for the payment by the Company to these investors of 85% of the amount of the tax benefits, if any, that the Company is deemed to realize as a result of increases in our tax basis related to exchanges of Class B common units as well as tax benefits attributable to the future utilization of pre-IPO NOLs. See Note 9 above and “Part II - Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 12” in our 2017 Form 10-K for discussion of our TRA.

Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract]
Investments In and Advances to Equity Method Investees	Investments In and Advances to Equity Method Investees The Company has entered into joint venture agreements with various entities. As of June 30, 2018 , the Company’s economic and voting interests in these entities ranged between 4% and 40% . As of December 31, 2017 , the Company’s economic interests in these entities ranged between 26% and 40% and voting interests ranged between 27% and 40% . The Company determined that it has significant influence over these entities but that it does not have control over any of the entities.

Noncontrolling Interest [Abstract]
Non-controlling Interests	Non-controlling Interests Immediately following the Offering Reorganization and IPO (as described in our 2017 Form 10-K), the Company owned 70.3% of Evolent Health LLC. The Company’s ownership percentage changes with the issuance of Class A common stock and Class B Exchanges. The Company completed the 2017 Secondary Offerings during 2017. The shares sold in the 2017 Secondary Offerings consisted of 20.1 million shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, consisting of 7.4 million existing shares of the Company’s Class A common stock owned and held by certain Selling Stockholders, 12.6 million newly-issued shares of the Company’s Class A common stock received by certain Investor Stockholders pursuant to Class B Exchanges and 0.1 million shares issued upon the exercise of options by certain management selling stockholders. As a result of these Class B Exchanges and Evolent Health LLC’s cancellation of its Class B common units during the 2017 Secondary Offerings, the Company’s economic interest in Evolent Health LLC increased from 77.4% to 96.1% immediately following the June 2017 Secondary, and, accordingly, we reclassified a portion of our non-controlling interests into shareholders’ equity attributable to Evolent Health, Inc. In addition, the Company issued 8.8 million shares of its Class A Common Stock during the August 2017 Primary for net proceeds of $166.9 million . For each share of Class A common stock issued by Evolent Health, Inc., the Company received a corresponding Class A common unit from Evolent Health LLC in exchange for contributing the issuance proceeds to Evolent Health LLC. As a result of the Class A common stock and Class A common units issued in conjunction with the August 2017 Primary, the Company’s economic interest in Evolent Health LLC increased from 96.1% to 96.6% immediately following the August 2017 Primary, and, accordingly, we reclassified a portion of our non-controlling interests into shareholders’ equity attributable to Evolent Health, Inc. The Company completed the March 2018 Private Sale during March 2018. The shares sold in the March 2018 Private Sale consisted of 1.2 million existing shares of the Company’s Class A common stock owned and held by The Advisory Board and 1.8 million newly-issued shares of the Company’s Class A common stock received by The Advisory Board pursuant to a Class B Exchange. As a result of this Class B Exchange and Evolent Health LLC’s cancellation of the Class B units during the March 2018 Private Sale, the Company’s economic interest in Evolent Health LLC increased from 96.6% to 98.9% immediately following the March 2018 Private Sale, and, accordingly, we reclassified a portion of our non-controlling interests into shareholders’ equity attributable to Evolent Health, Inc. As of June 30, 2018 , and December 31, 2017 , we owned 99.0% and 96.6% of the economic interests in Evolent Health LLC, respectively. See Note 4 for further discussion of the March 2018 Private Sale, August 2017 Primary and 2017 Secondary Offerings.

Fair Value Measurement

Fair Value Measurement	6 Months Ended

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurement	Fair Value Measurement GAAP defines fair value as the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) assuming an orderly transaction in the most advantageous market at the measurement date. GAAP also establishes a hierarchical disclosure framework which prioritizes and ranks the level of observability of inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: • Level 1 - inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices available in active markets for identical instruments as of the reporting date; • Level 2 - inputs to the valuation methodology are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date and the fair value can be determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies; and • Level 3 - inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable inputs in situations where there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the particular asset or liability being measured. Recurring Fair Value Measurements In accordance with GAAP, certain assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The following table summarizes the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands): As of June 30, 2018 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets Cash and cash equivalents (1) $ 73,346 $ — $ — $ 73,346 Restricted cash and restricted investments (1) 29,432 — — 29,432 Total $ 102,778 $ — $ — $ 102,778 Liabilities Contingent consideration (2) — — 8,200 8,200 As of December 31, 2017 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets Cash and cash equivalents (1) $ 60,535 $ — $ — $ 60,535 Restricted cash and restricted investments (1) 16,575 — — 16,575 Total $ 77,110 $ — $ — $ 77,110 Liabilities Contingent consideration (2) — — 8,700 8,700 (1) Represents the cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and restricted investments that were held in money market funds as of June 30, 2018 , and December 31, 2017 , as presented in the tables above. (2) Represents the contingent earn-out consideration related to the University Health Care, Inc. d/b/a Passport Health Plan (“Passport”) acquisition as described below. The Company recognizes any transfers between levels within the hierarchy as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between fair value levels for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. In the absence of observable market prices, the fair value is based on the best information available and involves a significant degree of judgment, taking into consideration a combination of internal and external factors, including the appropriate risk adjustments for non-performance and liquidity risks. The strategic alliance with Passport includes a provision for additional equity consideration contingent upon the Company obtaining new third party Medicaid business in future periods. The contingent consideration of $8.2 million and $8.7 million is a mark-to-market liability recorded within “Other long-term liabilities” on our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2018 , and December 31, 2017 . We recorded a re-measurement gain of approximately $0.6 million and $0.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 , respectively, and a re-measurement loss of approximately $0.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 , respectively , based on changes in the underlying assumptions of the fair value calculation. T he fair value of the contingent equity consideration was estimated based on the real options approach, a form of the income approach, which estimated the probability of the Company achieving future revenues under the agreement. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Passport contingent consideration are the five -year risk-adjusted recurring revenue compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) and the applicable discount rate. A significant increase in the assumed five -year risk-adjusted recurring revenue CAGR projection or decrease in discount rate in isolation would result in a significantly higher fair value of the contingent consideration. The changes in our contingent consideration, measured at fair value, for which the Company uses Level 3 inputs to determine fair value are as follows (in thousands): For the Three For the Six Months Ended Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2018 2017 2018 2017 Balance as of beginning-of-period $ 8,800 $ 8,300 $ 8,700 $ 8,300 Realized and unrealized (gains) losses, net (600 ) 200 (500 ) 200 Balance as of end-of-period $ 8,200 $ 8,500 $ 8,200 $ 8,500 The following table summarizes the fair value (in thousands), valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs of our Level 3 fair value measurements as of the periods presented: As of June 30, 2018 Fair Valuation Significant Assumption or Value Technique Unobservable Inputs Input Ranges Contingent consideration (1) $ 8,200 Real options approach Risk-adjusted recurring revenue CAGR 112.7 % (2) Discount rate/time value 3.8% - 4.5% (1) Related to additional Passport earn-out consideration as described above. (2) The risk-adjusted recurring revenue CAGR is calculated over the five -year period 2017-2021. Given that there was no recurring revenue in 2016 and 2017, the calculation of the 2017 and 2018 growth rate is based on a theoretical 2016 and 2017 recurring revenue of $1.0 million , resulting in a higher growth rate. The risk-adjusted recurring revenue CAGR over the period 2019-2021 is 78.6% . As of December 31, 2017 Fair Valuation Significant Assumption or Value Technique Unobservable Inputs Input Ranges Contingent consideration (1) $ 8,700 Real options approach Risk-adjusted recurring revenue CAGR 92.5 % (2) Discount rate/time value 2.7% - 4.0% (1) Related to additional Passport earn-out consideration as described above. (2) The risk-adjusted recurring revenue CAGR is calculated over the five -year period 2017-2021. Given that there was no recurring revenue in 2016 and 2017, the calculation of the 2017 and 2018 growth rate is based on a theoretical 2016 and 2017 recurring revenue of $1.0 million , resulting in a higher growth rate. The risk-adjusted recurring revenue CAGR over the period 2019-2021 is 19.2% . Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements In addition to the assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company records certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as required by GAAP. Generally, assets are recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as a result of impairment charges. This includes goodwill, intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, held-to-maturity investments and equity method investments. While not carried at fair value on a recurring basis, these items are continually monitored for indicators of impairment that would indicate current carrying value is greater than fair value. In those situations, the assets are considered impaired and written down to current fair value. See Notes 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 and 13 for further discussion of assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Other Fair Value Disclosures The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents (those not held in a money market fund), restricted cash, receivables, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and accrued compensation approximate their fair values because of the relatively short-term maturities of these items and financial instruments. See Note 8 for information regarding the fair value of the 2021 Notes.

Segment Reporting

Segment Reporting	6 Months Ended

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Reporting	Segment Reporting We define our reportable segments based on the way the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), currently the Chief Executive Officer, manages the operations for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance. We classify our operations into two reportable segments as follows: • Services, which consists of our technology-enabled services platform that supports our various value-based operations, such as delivery network alignment, population health performance, integrated cost and revenue management solutions and financial and administrative management services; and • True Health, which consists of a commercial health plan we operate in New Mexico that focuses on small and large businesses. In the ordinary course of business, our reportable segments enter into transactions with one another. While intersegment transactions are treated like third-party transactions to determine segment performance, the revenues and expenses recognized by the segment that is the counterparty to the transaction are eliminated in consolidation and do not affect consolidated results. The CODM uses Adjusted Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA as the relevant segment performance measures to evaluate the performance of the segments and allocate resources. Adjusted Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA are segment performance financial measures that offer a useful view of the overall operation of our businesses and may be different than similarly-titled segment performance financial measures used by other companies. Adjusted Revenue is defined as the sum of Adjusted Services Revenue and True Health premiums revenue less intersegment eliminations. Adjusted Services Revenue is defined as Services revenue adjusted to exclude the impact of purchase accounting adjustments. Adjusted Services Revenue consists of Adjusted Transformation Services Revenue and Adjusted Platform and Operations Services Revenue, which are defined as transformation services revenue and platform and operations services revenue, respectively, before the effect of intersegment eliminations and adjusted to exclude the impact of purchase accounting adjustments. The company’s Adjusted Services Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2018 , includes a $4.5 million adjustment related to revenue that was contracted for prior to 2018 and that was properly excluded from revenue in our 2017 results under the revenue recognition rules then in effect under ASC 605. On January 1, 2018, we adopted the new revenue recognition rules under ASC 606 using the modified retrospective method, which required us to include this $4.5 million as part of the cumulative transition adjustment to beginning retained earnings as of January 1, 2018. Under ASC 605, and based on proportionate performance revenue recognition, we would have recognized an additional $4.5 million in revenue during 2018, primarily within our Adjusted Transformation Services Revenue. The Company has therefore included this revenue, and related profit, in its adjusted results for the six months ended June 30, 2018 , as they had not been previously reported prior to 2018 and the contracts are expected to be completed within 2018. This is a one-time adjustment and it will not reoccur in future periods. Adjusted EBITDA is the sum of Services Adjusted EBITDA and True Health Adjusted EBITDA and is defined as EBITDA (net income (loss) attributable to Evolent Health, Inc. before interest income, interest expense, (provision) benefit for income taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses), adjusted to exclude changes in fair value of contingent consideration and indemnification assets, income (loss) from equity affiliates, other income (expense), net, net (income) loss attributable to non-controlling interests, purchase accounting adjustments, stock-based compensation expenses, severance costs, amortization of contract cost assets recorded as a result of a one-time ASC 606 transition adjustment, transaction costs related to acquisitions and business combinations, severance costs and other one-time adjustments (which for the six months ended June 30, 2018 , includes the ASC 606 transition adjustment described above). When Adjusted EBITDA is discussed in this report, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is net income (loss) attributable to Evolent Health, Inc. Management considers Adjusted Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA to be the appropriate metrics to evaluate and compare the ongoing operating performance of our segments on a consistent basis across reporting periods as they eliminate the effect of items which are not indicative of each segment's core operating performance.

True Health Claims Reserves

True Health Claims Reserves	6 Months Ended
	Jun. 30, 2018
Insurance [Abstract]
True Health Claims Reserves	True Health Claims Reserves Claims reserves for the True Health segment reflects estimates of the ultimate cost of claims that have been incurred but not reported, including expected development on reported claims, those that have been reported but not yet paid (reported claims in process), and other medical care expenses and services payable that are primarily comprised of accruals for incentives and other amounts payable to health care professionals and facilities. The Company uses actuarial principles and assumptions that are consistently applied each reporting period and recognizes the actuarial best estimate of the ultimate liability along with a margin for adverse deviation. This approach is consistent with actuarial standards of practice that the liabilities be adequate under moderately adverse conditions. This liability predominately consists of incurred but not reported amounts and reported claims in process including expected development on reported claims. The liability is primarily calculated using "completion factors" developed by comparing the claim incurral date to the date claims were paid. Completion factors are impacted by several key items including changes in: 1) electronic (auto-adjudication) versus manual claim processing, 2) provider claims submission rates, 3) membership and 4) the mix of products. The Company’s policy is to use historical completion factors combined with an analysis of current trends and operational factors to develop current estimates of completion factors. The Company estimates the liability for claims incurred in each month by applying the current estimates of completion factors to the current paid claims data. This approach implicitly assumes that historical completion rates will be a useful indicator for the current period notwithstanding that we did not own NMHC’s commercial business prior to January 2, 2018. For more recent months, the Company expects to rely more heavily on medical cost trend analysis that reflects expected claim payment patterns and other relevant operational considerations. Medical cost trend is primarily impacted by medical service utilization and unit costs that are affected by changes in the level and mix of medical benefits offered, including inpatient, outpatient and pharmacy, the impact of copays and deductibles, changes in provider practices and changes in consumer demographics and consumption behavior. For each reporting period, the Company compares key assumptions used to establish the claims reserves to actual experience. When actual experience differs from these assumptions, claims reserves are adjusted through current period shareholders' net income. Additionally, the Company evaluates expected future developments and emerging trends that may impact key assumptions. The process used to determine this liability requires the Company to make critical accounting estimates that involve considerable judgment, reflecting the variability inherent in forecasting future claim payments. These estimates are highly sensitive to changes in the Company's key assumptions, specifically completion factors and medical cost trends. Activity in claims reserves was as follows (in thousands): For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 Incurred costs related to current period $ 35,177 Paid costs related to current period 25,711 Change during the period 9,466 Beginning balance — Ending balance 9,466

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary to fairly state our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2017 , has been derived from audited financial statements as of that date. The interim consolidated results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may occur for the full fiscal year. Certain footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with United States of America generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been omitted pursuant to instructions, rules, and regulations prescribed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The disclosures provided herein should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2017 Form 10-K.
Accounting Estimates and Assumptions	Accounting Estimates and Assumptions The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses for the reporting period. Those estimates are inherently subject to change and actual results could differ from those estimates. In the accompanying consolidated financial statements, estimates are used for, but not limited to, the valuation of assets, liabilities, consideration related to business combinations and asset acquisitions, revenue recognition including variable consideration, discounts and credits, estimated selling prices for performance obligations in contracts with multiple performance obligations, claims reserves, contingent payments, allowance for doubtful accounts, depreciable lives of assets, impairment of long lived assets (including equity method investments), stock-based compensation, deferred income taxes and valuation allowance, contingent liabilities, valuation of intangible assets (including goodwill), purchase price allocation in taxable stock transactions and the useful lives of intangible assets.
Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Evolent Health, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All inter-company accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Operating Segments	Operating Segments Operating segments are defined as components of a business that earn revenue and incur expenses for which discrete financial information is available that is evaluated, on a regular basis, by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) to decide how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company operates through two segments: (1) Services, and (2) True Health. Our Services segment consists of our technology-enabled services platform that supports our various value-based operations, such as delivery network alignment, population health performance, integrated cost and revenue management solutions and financial and administrative management services. Our True Health segment consists of a commercial health plan we operate in New Mexico that focuses on small and large businesses. See Note 17 for a discussion of our operating results by segment.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition Our Services segment derives revenue from two sources: (1) transformation services and (2) platform and operations services. See “Changes in Accounting Principles” below for our updated revenue recognition policy as a result of our adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Our True Health segment derives revenue from premiums that are earned over the terms of the related insurance policies. The portion of premiums that will be earned in the future or are received prior to the effectiveness of the policy are deferred and reported as premiums received in advance. These amounts are generally classified as short-term deferred revenue on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Our Services segment derives revenue from two sources: (1) transformation services and (2) platform and operations services. Revenue is recognized when control of the services is transferred to our customers. We use the following 5-Step model, outlined in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), to determine revenue recognition on our contracts with customers: • Identify the contract(s) with a customer • Identify the performance obligations in the contract • Determine the transaction price • Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations • Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation Transformation Services Revenue Transformation services consist of strategic assessments, or Blueprint contracts, and implementation services whereby we assist the customer in launching its population health or health plan strategy. In certain cases, transformation services can also include revenue associated with our support of certain one-time wind-down activities for clients who are exiting a line of business or population. The transformation services are usually completed within 12 months. We generally receive a fixed fee for transformation services and recognize revenue over time using an input method based on hours incurred compared to the total estimated hours required to satisfy our performance obligation. Platform and Operations Services Revenue Platform and operations services generally include multi-year arrangements with customers to provide various population health, health plan operations and PBM services on an ongoing basis, as well as transition or run-out services to customers receiving primarily third-party administration (“TPA”) services. Our performance obligation in these arrangements is to provide an integrated suite of services, including access to our platform that is customized to meet the specialized needs of our customers. Generally we will apply the series guidance to the performance obligation as we have determined that each time increment is distinct. We primarily utilize a variable fee structure for these services that typically include a monthly payment that is calculated based on a specified per member per month rate, multiplied by the number of members that our partners are managing under a value-based care arrangement or a percentage of plan premiums. Our arrangements may also include other variable fees related to service level agreements, shared medical savings arrangements and other performance measures. Variable consideration is estimated using the most likely amount based on our historical experience and best judgment at the time. Due to the nature of our arrangements certain estimates may be constrained if it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will occur when the uncertainty is resolved. We recognize revenue for platform and operations services over time using the time elapsed output method. Fixed consideration is recognized ratably over the contract term. In accordance with the series guidance, we allocate variable consideration to the period to which the fees relate. Contracts with Multiple Performance Obligations Our contracts with customers may contain multiple performance obligations, primarily when the customer has requested both transformation services and platform and operations services as these services are distinct from one another. When a contract has multiple performance obligations, we allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation based on the relative standalone selling price using the expected cost margin approach. This approach requires estimates regarding both the level of effort it will take to satisfy the performance obligation as well as fees that will be received under the variable pricing model. We also take into consideration customer demographics, current market conditions, the scope of services and our overall pricing strategy and objectives when determining the standalone selling price. Principal vs Agent We occasionally use third parties to assist in satisfying our performance obligations. In order to determine whether we are the principal or agent in the arrangement, we will review each third party relationship on a contract by contract basis. We are an agent when our role is to arrange for another entity to provide the services to the customer. In these instances, we do not control the service before it is provided and will recognize revenue on a net basis. We are the principal when we control the good or service prior to transferring control to the customer. We recognize revenue on a gross basis when we are the principal in the arrangement.
Restricted Cash and Restricted Investments	Restricted Cash and Restricted Investments Restricted cash and restricted investments include cash and investments used to collateralize various contractual obligations
Intangible Assets, Net	Intangible Assets, Net Identified intangible assets are recorded at their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition and are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives using a method of amortization that reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible assets are used. The Company acquired additional intangible assets in conjunction with a strategic acquisition made during 2018. Information regarding the determination and allocation of the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities is further described within Note 4 . The following summarizes the estimated useful lives by asset classification: Corporate trade name 20 years Customer relationships 15-25 years Technology 5 years Provider network contracts 5 years Intangible assets are reviewed for impairment if circumstances indicate the Company may not be able to recover the asset’s carrying value. The Company evaluates recoverability by determining whether the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of that asset or group exceed the carrying value at the evaluation date. If the undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to cover the carrying value, the Company measures an impairment loss as the excess of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset or group over its fair value. See Note 7 for additional discussion regarding our intangible assets.
Goodwill	Goodwill We recognize the excess of the purchase price, plus the fair value of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree, over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired as goodwill. Goodwill is not amortized, but is reviewed at least annually for indications of impairment, with consideration given to financial performance and other relevant factors. We perform impairment tests of goodwill at a reporting unit level, which is consistent with the way management evaluates our business. Goodwill is assigned to the reporting unit that benefits from the synergies arising from each business combination.
Foreign Currency	Foreign Currency The Company established an international subsidiary during the first quarter of 2018. The functional currency of our international subsidiary is the Indian Rupee. We translate the financial statements of this subsidiary to U.S. dollars using month-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for revenue, costs, and expenses. Translation gains and losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a component of shareholders' equity.
Adoption of New Accounting Standards and Future Adoption of New Accounting Standards	Adoption of New Accounting Standards In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation - Stock Compensation: Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting . The update expands the scope of ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. The ASU specifies that ASC 718 applies to all share-based payment transactions in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. The amendments in the update also clarify that ASC 718 does not apply to share-based payments used to effectively provide (1) financing to the issuer or (2) awards granted in conjunction with selling goods or services to customers as part of a contract accounted for under ASC 606. The update is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than an entity’s adoption date of ASC 606. We adopted the requirements of this standard effective July 1, 2018, and there was no impact to our financial condition and results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 . Going forward, we do not expect the adoption to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , in order to clarify the principles of recognizing revenue. This standard establishes the core principle of recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The FASB defines a five-step process that systematically identifies the various components of the revenue recognition process, culminating with the recognition of revenue upon satisfaction of an entity’s performance obligations. By completing all five steps of the process, the core principles of revenue recognition will be achieved. The new revenue standard (including updates) is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The guidance permits two methods of adoption: i) the full retrospective method applying the standard to each prior reporting period presented, or ii) the modified retrospective method with a cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application. The standard also allows entities to apply certain practical expedients at their discretion. The Company adopted the standard effective January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective method for only contracts that were not completed at the date of initial application. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under Accounting Standards Codification ASC 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historic accounting under ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 605”). The adoption of this standard resulted in changes related to revenue recognition for contracts that contain certain features, such as variable consideration. These changes generally accelerate revenue recognition. In addition, certain customer setup costs, which have historically been expensed as incurred, will now be capitalized. Evolent recognized the cumulative effect of applying the new revenue standard as a $17.3 million adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings, including non-controlling interests, in the first quarter of 2018, primarily as a result of capitalization of expenses related to contract acquisition and fulfillment costs and acceleration of revenue due to variable consideration estimation. See Note 5 for additional disclosures regarding Evolent's contracts with customers. See Note 2 for updated revenue recognition accounting policy and the impact of adopting the new revenue recognition standard on Evolent’s financial statements. Future Adoption of New Accounting Standards In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments . With respect to assets measured at amortized cost, such as held-to-maturity assets, the update requires presentation of the amortized cost net of a credit loss allowance. The update eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold that was previously required prior to recognizing a credit loss on financial instruments. The credit loss estimate can now reflect an entity’s current estimate of all future expected credit losses as opposed to the previous standard, when an entity only considered past events and current conditions. With respect to available for sale debt securities, the update requires that credit losses be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted as of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We intend to adopt the requirements of this standard effective January 1, 2020, and are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption on our financial condition and results of operations. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases , which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e., lessees and lessors). The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight‑line basis over the term of the lease, respectively. A lessee is also required to record a right‑of‑use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. ASU 2016-02 (ASC Topic 842) supersedes the previous leases standard, ASC 840, Leases . The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The Company has formulated an implementation team that is currently engaged in the evaluation process. We intend to adopt the requirements of this standard effective January 1, 2019, using a modified retrospective approach. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, which is intended to make targeted improvements to ASU 2016-02. The amendments in ASU 2018-11 provide entities with an additional (and optional) transition method to adopt the new leases standard by recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The requirements of ASU 2018-11 are effective on the same date as the requirements of ASU 2016-02. Pursuant to ASU 2018-11, the Company will apply the new standard at its adoption date rather than at the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retaining earnings. We anticipate that this standard will have a material impact on our consolidated balance sheets.
Fair Value Measurements and Other Fair Value Disclosures	Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements In addition to the assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company records certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as required by GAAP. Generally, assets are recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as a result of impairment charges. This includes goodwill, intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, held-to-maturity investments and equity method investments. While not carried at fair value on a recurring basis, these items are continually monitored for indicators of impairment that would indicate current carrying value is greater than fair value. In those situations, the assets are considered impaired and written down to current fair value. See Notes 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 and 13 for further discussion of assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Other Fair Value Disclosures The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents (those not held in a money market fund), restricted cash, receivables, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and accrued compensation approximate their fair values because of the relatively short-term maturities of these items and financial instruments. See Note 8 for information regarding the fair value of the 2021 Notes.

See Note 9 for further discussion of our lease commitments. (2) Represents collateral held with financial institutions for risk-sharing arrangements. As of June 30, 2018 , and December 31, 2017 , approximately $21.9 million and $16.6 million of the collateral amount was in a trust account and invested in a money market fund. The amounts invested in money market funds are considered restricted cash and are carried at fair value, which approximates cost. See Note 15 for further discussion of our fair value measurement. As of December 31, 2017 , approximately $8.2 million of the collateral amount was invested in restricted certificates of deposit with remaining maturities of less than 12 months. The restricted investments are classified as held-to-maturity and stated at amortized cost. Fair value of the certificates of deposit is determined using Level 2 inputs and approximates amortized cost as of December 31, 2017 . See Note 9 for further discussion of our risk-sharing arrangements. (3) Represents cash held by Evolent on behalf of partners to process PBM and other claims. These are pass-through amounts and can fluctuate materially from period to period depending on the timing of when the claims are processed. (4) Represents restricted cash required as part of our capital only reinsurance agreement to provide balance sheet support to NMHC. There is no transfer of underwriting risk to Evolent and we are not at risk for any cash payments on behalf of NMHC as part of the agreement. The reinsurance agreement is further discussed in Note 9 . Approximately $2.5 million is in a FDIC participating bank account and approximately $7.5 million is invested in a money market fund. The amount invested in the money market fund is considered restricted cash and is carried at fair value, which approximates cost. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the statements of cash flows.

The Company acquired certain assets from Vestica in March 2016. The transaction included additional consideration of up to $4.0 million , which was being held in escrow and was recorded within “Prepaid expenses and other non-current assets” on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. In February 2018, the Company and Vestica reached an agreement to settle $3.5 million of the $4.0 million in escrow. Based on the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company reclassified the unamortized portion of the additional consideration from “Prepaid expenses and other non-current assets” into “Customer relationships” as of the settlement date.

(2) Each Class B common unit of Evolent Health LLC can be exchanged (together with a corresponding number of shares of our Class B common stock) for one share of our Class A common stock. As holders exchange their Class B common shares for Class A common shares, our interest in Evolent Health LLC will increase. Therefore, shares of our Class B common stock are not considered dilutive shares for the purposes of calculating our diluted earnings (loss) per common share as related adjustment to net income (loss) available for common shareholders would equally offset the additional shares, resulting in the same earnings (loss) per common share. (3) For periods of net loss, shares used in the earnings (loss) per common share calculation represent basic shares as using diluted shares would be anti-dilutive.
