Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Organization and summary of significant accounting policies Organization The Company's operations are comprised of its dialysis and related lab services to patients in the United States (its U.S. dialysis business), its ancillary services and strategic initiatives including its international operations (collectively, its ancillary services), and its corporate administrative support. The Company’s largest line of business is its U.S. dialysis business, which operates kidney dialysis centers in the U.S. for patients suffering from chronic kidney failure, also known as end stage renal disease (ESRD). As of December 31, 2020, the Company operated or provided administrative services through a network of 2,816 U.S. outpatient dialysis centers in 46 states and the District of Columbia, serving a total of approximately 204,200 patients. In addition, as of December 31, 2020, the Company operated or provided administrative services to a total of 321 outpatient dialysis centers serving approximately 36,200 patients located in ten countries outside of the U.S. On June 19, 2019, the Company completed the sale of its DaVita Medical Group (DMG) business to Collaborative Care Holdings, LLC (Optum), a subsidiary of UnitedHealth Group Inc. As a result of this transaction, DMG's results of operations have been reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements. For financial information about the DMG business, see Note 22. The Company’s U.S. dialysis business qualifies as a separately reportable segment and the Company’s ancillary services, including its international operations, have been combined and disclosed in the other segments category. Basis of presentation These consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). The financial statements include DaVita Inc. and its subsidiaries, partnerships and other entities in which it maintains a majority voting or other controlling financial interest (collectively, the Company). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Equity investments in investees over which the Company only has significant influence are recorded on the equity method, while investments in other equity securities are recorded at fair value or on the adjusted cost method, as applicable. For the Company’s international subsidiaries, local currencies are considered their functional currencies. Translation adjustments result from translating the financial statements of the Company’s international subsidiaries from their functional currencies into the Company’s reporting currency (the U.S. dollar, or USD). Prior year classifications have been conformed to the current year presentation. The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date these consolidated financial statements were issued and has included all necessary adjustments and disclosures. Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities, contingencies and noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions. Although actual results in subsequent periods will differ from these estimates, such estimates are developed based on the best information available to management and management’s best judgments at the time. All significant assumptions and estimates underlying the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes are regularly reviewed and updated when necessary. Changes in estimates are reflected in the financial statements based upon on-going actual experience trends or subsequent settlements and realizations depending on the nature and predictability of the estimates and contingencies. The most significant assumptions and estimates underlying these consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes involve revenue recognition and accounts receivable, impairments of goodwill, accounting for income taxes, fair value estimates and loss contingencies. Specific estimating risks and contingencies are further addressed within these notes to the consolidated financial statements. Revenues On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) using the cumulative effect method for those contracts that were not substantially completed as of January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning on and after January 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606. The adoption of this new standard primarily changed the Company’s presentation of revenues, provision for uncollectible accounts and allowance for doubtful accounts. Topic 606 requires revenue to be recognized based on the Company’s estimate of the transaction price the Company expects to collect as a result of satisfying its performance obligations. Accordingly, for performance obligations satisfied after the adoption of Topic 606, the Company no longer separately presents a provision for uncollectible accounts on the consolidated income statement and no longer presents the related allowance for doubtful accounts on the consolidated balance sheet. However, as a result of the Company’s election to apply Topic 606 only to contracts not substantially completed as of January 1, 2018, the Company continued to maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts related to performance obligations satisfied prior to the adoption of Topic 606. Net collections or write-offs of accounts receivable generated prior to January 1, 2018, beyond amounts previously reserved thereon, are presented in the provision for uncollectible accounts on the consolidated income statement in accordance with Topic 605. Dialysis patient service revenues Revenues are recognized based on the Company’s estimate of the transaction price the Company expects to collect as a result of satisfying its performance obligations. Dialysis patient service revenues are recognized in the period services are provided based on these estimates. Revenues consist primarily of payments from government and commercial health plans for dialysis services provided to patients. A usual and customary fee schedule is maintained for the Company’s dialysis treatments and related lab services; however, actual collectible revenue is normally recognized at a discount from the fee schedule. Revenues associated with Medicare and Medicaid programs are estimated based on: (a) the payment rates that are established by statute or regulation for the portion of payment rates paid by the government payor (e.g., 80% for Medicare patients) and (b) for the portion not paid by the primary government payor, estimates of the amounts ultimately collectible from other government programs providing secondary coverage (e.g., Medicaid secondary coverage), the patient’s commercial health plan secondary coverage, or the patient. Under Medicare’s bundled payment rate system, services covered by Medicare are subject to estimating risk, whereby reimbursements from Medicare can vary significantly depending upon certain patient characteristics and other variable factors. Even with the bundled payment rate system, Medicare payments for bad debt claims as established by cost reports require evidence of collection efforts. As a result, billing and collection of Medicare bad debt claims can be delayed significantly and final payment is subject to audit. The Company’s revenue recognition is estimated based on its judgment regarding its ability to collect, which depends upon its ability to effectively capture, document and bill for Medicare’s base payment rate as well as these other variable factors. Medicaid payments, when Medicaid coverage is secondary, can also be difficult to estimate. For many states, Medicaid payment terms and methods differ from Medicare, and may prevent accurate estimation of individual payment amounts prior to billing. Revenues associated with commercial health plans are estimated based on contractual terms for the patients under healthcare plans with which the Company has formal agreements, non-contracted health plan coverage terms if known, estimated secondary collections, historical collection experience, historical trends of refunds and payor payment adjustments (retractions), inefficiencies in the Company’s billing and collection processes that can result in denied claims for payments, delays in collections due to payor payment inefficiencies, and regulatory compliance matters. Commercial revenue recognition also involves significant estimating risks. With many larger commercial insurers, the Company has several different contracts and payment arrangements, and these contracts often include only a subset of the Company’s centers. In certain circumstances, it may not be possible to determine which contract, if any, should be applied prior to billing. In addition, for services provided by non-contracted centers, final collection may require specific negotiation of a payment amount, typically at a significant discount from the Company’s usual and customary rates. Other revenues Other revenues consist of fees for management and administrative support services provided to outpatient dialysis businesses that the Company does not own or in which the Company owns a noncontrolling interest as well as revenues associated with the Company's non-dialysis ancillary services and strategic initiatives. Revenues associated with dialysis management services, integrated care services, clinical research programs, physician services, and ESRD seamless care organizations are estimated in the period services are provided. Revenues associated with pharmacy services until that business was closed in 2018 were estimated as prescriptions were filled and shipped to patients. Revenues associated with direct primary care until that business was sold in 2018 were estimated over the membership period. Other income Other income includes interest income on cash and cash equivalents and short- and long-term investments, realized and unrealized gains and losses recognized on investments, and foreign currency transaction gains and losses. Cash and cash equivalents Cash equivalents are short-term highly liquid investments readily convertible to known amounts of cash that typically mature within three months or less at date of purchase. Restricted cash and equivalents Restricted cash and cash equivalents include funds held in trust to satisfy insurer and state regulatory requirements related to wholly-owned captive insurance companies that bear professional and general liability and workers' compensation risks for the Company as well as funds held in escrow for certain legal settlements pending finalization. Investments in debt and equity securities The Company classifies certain debt securities as held-to-maturity and records them at amortized cost based on the Company’s intentions and strategies concerning those investments. Equity securities that have readily determinable fair values or redemption values are recorded at estimated fair value with changes in fair value recognized in current earnings within "Other income, net". These debt and equity investments are classified as "short-term investments" or "long-term investments" on the Company's consolidated balance sheet. See Note 5 for further details. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or net realizable value and consist principally of pharmaceuticals and dialysis-related supplies. Rebates related to inventory purchases are recorded when earned and are based on certain qualification requirements which are dependent on a variety of factors including future pricing levels from the manufacturer and related data submission. Property and equipment Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization and is further reduced by any impairments. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Disposition gains and losses are included in current operating expenses. Property and equipment assets are reviewed for possible impairment whenever significant events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment may have occurred. Leases The Company leases substantially all of its U.S. dialysis facilities. The majority of the Company’s facilities are leased under non-cancellable operating leases which contain renewal options. These renewal options are included in the Company's determination of the right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities when renewal is considered reasonably certain at the commencement date. Certain of the Company's leases are subject to periodic consumer price increases or contain fixed escalation clauses. The Company categorizes leases with contractual terms longer than twelve months as either operating or finance leases. Finance leases are generally those leases that allow the Company to substantially utilize or pay for the entire asset over its estimated life. All other leases are categorized as operating leases. The Company has elected the practical expedient to not separate lease components from non-lease components for its financing and operating leases. The Company has also elected the short-term lease recognition exemption and does not recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for leases with a term of less than 12 months. Financing and operating right-of-use assets are recognized based on the net present value of lease payments over the lease term plus expected renewals as of the commencement date. Since most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate of return, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement date or remeasurement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Assets acquired under finance leases are recorded on the balance sheet within property and equipment, net and liabilities for finance lease obligations are recorded within long-term debt. Finance lease assets are amortized to depreciation expense on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the expected lease term. Rights to use assets under operating leases are recorded on the balance sheet as operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities for operating lease obligations are recorded as operating lease liabilities. Reductions in the carrying amount of operating lease right-of-use assets are recorded to rent expense over the lease term. Amortizable intangibles Amortizable intangible assets include noncompetition agreements, hospital service contracts, and customer relationships arising from other service contracts, each of which have finite useful lives. Amortization expense is computed using the straight-line method over the useful lives of the assets estimated as follows: non-competition agreements and hospital acute service contracts over the contract term, and customer relationships from other service contracts over the remaining contract term plus expected renewal periods. Amortizable intangible assets are reviewed for possible impairment whenever significant events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment may have occurred. Indefinite-lived intangibles Indefinite-lived intangible assets include international licenses and accreditations that allow the Company to be reimbursed for providing dialysis services to patients, each of which has an indefinite useful life. Indefinite-lived intangibles are not amortized, but are assessed for impairment at least annually and whenever significant events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment may have occurred. Costs to renew indefinite-lived intangible assets are expensed as incurred. Equity method and other investments Equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values are carried on the equity method if the Company maintains significant influence over the investee. Equity investments without readily determinable fair values for which the Company does not maintain significant influence over the investee are carried either at estimated fair value or on the adjusted cost method, as determined on an investment-specific basis. The adjusted cost method represents the Company's cost for an investment, net of any other-than-temporary impairments, as adjusted for any subsequent observation of the investment's fair value. These equity method and adjusted cost method investments are classified as “Equity method and other investments” on the Company's consolidated balance sheet. See Note 9 for further details. Equity method and other investments are assessed for other-than-temporary impairment when significant events or changes in circumstances indicate that an other-than-temporary impairment may have occurred. An other-than-temporary impairment charge is recorded when the fair value of an investment has fallen below its carrying amount and the shortfall is expected to be indefinitely or permanently unrecoverable. Goodwill Goodwill represents the difference between the fair value of businesses acquired and the fair value of the identifiable tangible and intangible net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized, but is assessed by individual reporting unit for impairment as circumstances warrant and at least annually. An impairment charge is recognized when and to the extent a reporting unit's carrying amount is determined to exceed its fair value. The Company operates multiple reporting units. See Note 10 for further details. Self-insurance The Company predominantly self-insures its professional and general liability and workers' compensation risks through its wholly-owned captive insurance companies, with excess or reinsurance coverage for additional protection. The Company is also predominantly self-insured with respect to employee medical and other health benefits. The Company records insurance liabilities for the professional and general liability, workers’ compensation, and employee health benefit risks that it retains and estimates its liability for those risks using third party actuarial calculations that are based upon historical claims experience and expectations for future claims. Income taxes Federal and state income taxes are computed at currently enacted tax rates less tax credits using the asset and liability method. Deferred taxes are adjusted both for items that do not currently have tax consequences and for the cumulative effect of any changes in tax rates from those previously used to determine deferred tax assets or liabilities. Tax provisions include amounts that are currently payable, changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities that arise because of temporary differences between the timing of when items of income and expense are recognized for financial reporting and income tax purposes, changes in the recognition of tax positions and any changes in the valuation allowance caused by a change in judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts expected to be realized. The Company uses a recognition threshold of more-likely-than-not and a measurement attribute on all tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return in order to be recognized in the financial statements. Once the recognition threshold is met, the tax position is then measured to determine the actual amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. Stock-based compensation The Company’s stock-based compensation expense for stock-settled awards is measured at the estimated fair value of awards on the date of grant and recognized on a cumulative straight-line basis over the vesting terms of the awards, unless the stock awards are based on non-market based performance metrics, in which case expense is adjusted for the ultimate number of shares expected to be issued as of the end of each reporting period. Stock-based compensation expense for cash-settled awards is based on their estimated fair values as of the end of each reporting period. The expense for all stock-based awards is recognized net of expected forfeitures. Interest rate cap agreements The Company often carries a combination of current or forward interest rate caps on portions of its variable rate debt as a means of hedging its exposure to changes in LIBOR interest rates as part of its overall interest rate risk management strategy. These interest rate caps are not held for trading or speculative purposes and are designated as qualifying cash flow hedges. See Note 13 for further details. Noncontrolling interests Noncontrolling interests represent third-party equity ownership interests in entities which are consolidated by the Company for financial statement reporting purposes. As of December 31, 2020, third parties held noncontrolling equity interests in 688 consolidated legal entities. Fair value estimates Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements are determined based on the principal or most advantageous market for the item being measured, assume that buyers and sellers are independent, willing and able to transact, and knowledgeable, with access to all information customarily available in such a transaction, and are based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the item, not assumptions specific to the reporting entity. The Company relies on fair value measurements and estimates for purposes that require the recording, reassessment, or adjustment of the carrying amounts of certain assets, liabilities, and noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions (redeemable equity interests classified as temporary equity). These purposes can include the accounting for business combination transactions; impairment assessments for goodwill, other intangible assets, or other long-lived assets; recurrent revaluation of investments in debt and equity securities, contingent earn-out obligations, interest rate cap agreements, and noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions; and the accounting for equity method and other investments and stock-based compensation, as applicable. The Company has also classified its assets, liabilities and temporary equity into the appropriate fair value hierarchy levels as defined by the FASB. See Note 24 for further details. New accounting standards New standards recently adopted In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments . The amendments in this ASU amend the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the incurred loss methodology for financial instruments and off-balance sheet credit exposures. The amendment requires entities to consider a broader range of information to estimate expected credit losses, which may result in earlier recognition of losses. The amendments in this ASU became effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2020 and were applied using a modified retrospective basis. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-13 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework -Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement . The applicable amendments in this ASU remove requirements for disclosures concerning transfers between fair value measurement levels 1, 2 and 3 and disclosures concerning valuation processes for level 3 fair value measurements. The applicable amendments in this ASU also add a requirement to separately disclose the changes in unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income for the reporting period for level 3 items measured at fair value on a recurring basis, and require disclosure of the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in this ASU became effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2020 and were applied on a prospective basis. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract . ASU No. 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The Company adopted this ASU as of January 1, 2020, using the prospective transition approach, which allows the Company to change the accounting method without restating prior periods or booking cumulative adjustments. The adoption of ASU No. 2018-15 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. New standards not yet adopted In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12 , Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes . ASU 2019-12 attempts to simplify aspects of accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates, and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. ASU 2019-12 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within that fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. The Company has evaluated the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements, including accounting policies, processes, and systems, and does not expect the impact to be material. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting . ASU No. 2020-04 provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another rate that is expected to be discontinued. The amendments in this ASU were effective beginning on March 12, 2020, and the Company may elect to apply the amendments prospectively through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently assessing the effect this guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements. |

The Company had no allowance for doubtful accounts related to performance obligations satisfied in years prior to January 1, 2018 as of December 31, 2020 and such allowance was $8,328 as of December 31, 2019. As described in Note 1, there are significant risks associated with estimating revenue, many of which take several years to resolve. These estimates are subject to ongoing insurance coverage changes, geographic coverage differences, differing interpretations of contract coverage and other payor issues, as well as patient issues including determining applicable primary and secondary coverage, changes in patient coverage and coordination of benefits. As these estimates are refined over time, both positive and negative adjustments to revenue are recognized in the current period. As a result of these changes in estimates, no additional revenue was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2020 associated with performance obligations satisfied prior to January 1, 2018 and additional revenue of $37,274 was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2019 associated with performance obligations satisfied in years prior to January 1, 2018. There is no single commercial payor that accounted for more than 10% of total consolidated accounts receivable or consolidated revenues at or for the years ended December 31, 2020 or 2019. |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Earnings Per Share | Earnings per share Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, reduced for 2018 by the weighted average shares held in escrow that under certain circumstances may have been returned to the Company. Weighted average common shares outstanding include restricted stock unit awards that are no longer subject to forfeiture because the recipients have satisfied either their explicit vesting terms or retirement eligibility requirements. Diluted earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of outstanding stock-settled stock appreciation rights and unvested stock units (under the treasury stock method) and, for 2018, the weighted average contingently returnable shares held in escrow that were outstanding during the period. The reconciliations of the numerators and denominators used to calculate basic and diluted earnings per share were as follows: Year ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Net income (loss) attributable to DaVita Inc.: Continuing operations $ 783,295 $ 706,832 $ 624,321 Discontinued operations (9,653) 104,149 (464,927) Net income attributable to DaVita Inc. $ 773,642 $ 810,981 $ 159,394 Weighted average shares outstanding: During the period 119,797 153,181 171,886 Contingently returnable (1) — — (1,100) Basic shares 119,797 153,181 170,786 Contingently returnable (1) — — 1,100 Assumed incremental from stock plans 2,826 631 479 Diluted shares 122,623 153,812 172,365 Basic net income (loss) attributable to DaVita Inc.: Continuing operations per share $ 6.54 $ 4.61 $ 3.66 Discontinued operations per share (0.08) 0.68 (2.73) Basic net income per share attributable to DaVita Inc. $ 6.46 $ 5.29 $ 0.93 Diluted net income (loss) attributable to DaVita Inc.: Continuing operations per share $ 6.39 $ 4.60 $ 3.62 Discontinued operations per share (0.08) 0.67 (2.70) Diluted net income per share attributable to DaVita Inc. $ 6.31 $ 5.27 $ 0.92 Anti-dilutive stock-settled awards excluded from calculation (2) 2,301 5,936 5,295 (1) Shares previously held in escrow for the DaVita HealthCare Partners merger.

Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures Disclosure | Equity method and other investments The Company maintains equity method and other minor investments in the private securities of certain other healthcare and healthcare-related businesses, comprised as follows: December 31, 2020 2019 APAC joint venture $ 120,787 $ 116,924 Other equity method partnerships 107,599 114,611 Adjusted cost method and other investments 29,105 10,448 $ 257,491 $ 241,983 During 2020, 2019 and 2018, the Company recognized equity investment income (loss) of $26,916, $12,679 and $(4,484), respectively, from its equity method investments in nonconsolidated businesses. The Company's largest equity method investment is its ownership interest in DaVita Care Pte. Ltd. (the APAC joint venture, or APAC JV). The Company holds a 75% voting and economic interest in the APAC JV and an unrelated noncontrolling investor holds the other 25% voting and economic interest in the joint venture. During 2019 the continuing third party noncontrolling investor made its final subscribed capital contribution to the joint venture and the other previous third party noncontrolling investor elected to exit the joint venture. The governance structure and voting rights established for the APAC JV, which remain unchanged since its formation on August 1, 2016, provide that certain key decisions affecting the joint venture’s operations are not subject to the unilateral discretion of the Company but rather are under the joint control of the Company and the APAC JV's unrelated noncontrolling investor. As a result, the Company does not consolidate the APAC JV. Prior to the transactions described above, the Company held a 60% voting interest and a 73.3% economic interest in the APAC JV, while the other two noncontrolling investors collectively held a 40% voting interest and a 26.7% economic interest in the APAC JV. The Company's other equity method investments include 22 legal entities over which the Company has significant influence but in which it does not maintain a controlling financial interest. Almost all of these are U.S. dialysis partnerships in the form of limited liability companies. The Company's ownership interests in these partnerships vary, but typically range from 30% to 50%. |

Goodwill | Goodwill Changes in the carrying value of goodwill by reportable segment were as follows: U.S. dialysis Other - Ancillary Consolidated Balance at December 31, 2018 $ 6,275,004 $ 566,956 $ 6,841,960 Acquisitions 18,089 72,137 90,226 Impairment charges — (124,892) (124,892) Foreign currency and other adjustments (5,993) (13,666) (19,659) Balance at December 31, 2019 $ 6,287,100 $ 500,535 $ 6,787,635 Acquisitions 24,377 105,680 130,057 Divestitures (1,549) (6,744) (8,293) Foreign currency and other adjustments — 9,710 9,710 Balance at December 31, 2020 $ 6,309,928 $ 609,181 $ 6,919,109 Balance at December 31, 2020: Goodwill $ 6,309,928 $ 745,732 $ 7,055,660 Accumulated impairment charges — (136,551) (136,551) $ 6,309,928 $ 609,181 $ 6,919,109 As dialysis treatments are an essential, life-sustaining service for patients who depend on them, the Company's operations have continued and are currently expected to continue throughout the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. However, the ultimate impact of the dynamic and evolving COVID-19 pandemic on the Company will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and difficult to predict, including among other things the severity and duration of the pandemic, further spread or resurgence of the virus, including as a result of the emergence of the new strains of the virus, its impact on the chronic kidney disease (CKD) patient population and the Company's patient population, the availability, acceptance, impact and efficacy of COVID-19 treatments, therapies and vaccines, the pandemic's continuing impact on the U.S. and global economies and unemployment, the responses of the Company's competitors to the pandemic and related changes in the marketplaces, and the timing, scope and effectiveness of governmental responses. While the Company does not currently expect a material adverse impact to its business as a result of this public health crisis, there can be no assurance that the COVID-19 pandemic will not have a material adverse impact on one or more of the Company's businesses. Each of the Company’s operating segments described in Note 25 to these consolidated financial statements represents an individual reporting unit for goodwill impairment assessment purposes. Within the U.S. dialysis operating segment, the Company considers each of its dialysis centers to constitute an individual business for which discrete financial information is available. However, since these dialysis centers have similar operating and economic characteristics, and the allocation of resources and significant investment decisions concerning these businesses are highly centralized and the benefits broadly distributed, the Company has aggregated these centers and deemed them to constitute a single reporting unit. The Company has applied a similar aggregation to the physician practices in its physician services reporting units, to the dialysis centers and other health operations within each international reporting unit, and to the vascular access service centers in its former vascular access services reporting unit. For the Company’s other operating segments, discrete business components below the operating segment level constitute individual reporting units. When performing quantitative goodwill impairment assessments, the Company estimates fair value using either appraisals developed with an independent third party valuation firm which consider both discounted cash flow estimates for the subject business and observed market multiples for similar businesses, or offer prices received for the subject business that would be acceptable to the Company. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recognized goodwill impairment charges of $119,476 in its Germany kidney care business. These charges resulted primarily from a decline in then current and expected future patient census and an increase in then current and expected future costs, including due to wage increases expected to result from legislation announced at that time. The changes in the Company's expectations were informed by developments in the business in response to evolving market conditions, including changes in the Company's expected timing and ability to mitigate them, and based on in-depth operating and strategic reviews completed by the Company's new Germany management team. During the year ended December 31, 2019 the Company also recognized a goodwill impairment charge of $5,416 in its German other health operations. Based on its most recent assessments, the Company determined that further changes in expected patient census, increases in operating costs, reductions in reimbursement rates, changes in actual or expected growth rates, or other significant adverse changes in expected future cash flows or valuation assumptions could result in goodwill impairment charges in the future for the following reporting unit, which remains at risk of goodwill impairment as of December 31, 2020: Reporting unit Goodwill Carrying amount coverage (1) Sensitivities Operating income (2) Discount rate (3) Germany kidney care $ 322,736 2.3 % (1.5) % (10.1) % (1) Excess of estimated fair value of the reporting unit over its carrying amount as of the latest assessment date. (2) Potential impact on estimated fair value of a sustained, long-term reduction of 3% in operating income as of the latest assessment date. (3) Potential impact on estimated fair value of an increase in discount rates of 100 basis points as of the latest assessment date. Except as described above, none of the Company’s other reporting units were considered at risk of significant goodwill impairment as of December 31, 2020. Since the dates of the Company’s last annual goodwill impairment assessments, there have been certain developments, events, changes in operating performance and other changes in key circumstances that have affected the Company’s businesses. However, these have not caused management to believe it is more likely than not that the fair values of any of the Company’s reporting units would be less than their respective carrying amounts as of December 31, 2020. |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income taxes The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the consolidated financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined on the basis of the differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Income before income taxes from continuing operations consisted of the following: Year ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Domestic $ 1,287,976 $ 1,307,299 $ 1,083,578 International 30,286 (111,860) (35,100) $ 1,318,262 $ 1,195,439 $ 1,048,478 Income tax expense for continuing operations consisted of the following: Year ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Current: Federal $ 47,171 $ 208,339 $ 140,064 State 21,442 58,026 32,990 International 17,481 15,545 7,557 Total current income tax 86,094 281,910 180,611 Deferred: Federal 198,623 44,263 52,034 State 27,206 (25,836) 21,096 International 2,009 (20,709) 4,659 Total deferred income tax 227,838 (2,282) 77,789 $ 313,932 $ 279,628 $ 258,400 Income taxes are allocated between continuing and discontinued operations as follows: Year ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Continuing operations $ 313,932 $ 279,628 $ 258,400 Discontinued operations 1,657 40,689 99,768 $ 315,589 $ 320,317 $ 358,168 The reconciliation between the Company’s effective tax rate from continuing operations and the U.S. federal income tax rate is as follows: Year ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Federal income tax rate 21.0 % 21.0 % 21.0 % State income taxes, net of federal benefit 3.4 2.3 4.1 Change in International valuation allowance 1.5 1.3 0.9 Political advocacy costs 1.7 0.2 2.3 Nondeductible executive compensation 1.2 0.8 0.7 Unrecognized tax benefits 0.4 2.4 0.2 Other (0.6) 0.3 — Impact of noncontrolling interests primarily (4.8) (4.9) (4.6) Effective tax rate 23.8 % 23.4 % 24.6 % Deferred tax assets and liabilities arising from temporary differences for continuing operations were as follows: December 31, 2020 2019 Receivables $ 9,324 $ 19,095 Accrued liabilities 64,982 64,458 Operating lease liabilities 584,656 580,110 Net operating loss carryforwards 167,398 139,690 Other 62,110 55,108 Deferred tax assets 888,470 858,461 Valuation allowance (114,824) (91,925) Net deferred tax assets 773,646 766,536 Intangible assets (634,736) (563,914) Property and equipment (274,742) (162,628) Operating lease assets (532,082) (527,056) Investments in partnerships (101,996) (64,960) Other (39,690) (25,521) Deferred tax liabilities (1,583,246) (1,344,079) Net deferred tax liabilities $ (809,600) $ (577,543) At December 31, 2020, the Company had federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $99,657 that expire through 2036, although a substantial amount expire by 2029. The Company also had state net operating loss carryforwards of $488,070, some of which have an indefinite life, although a substantial amount expire by 2040 and international net operating loss carryforwards of $296,451, some of which will begin to expire in 2021 though the majority have an indefinite life. The Company has a state capital loss carryover of $297,748, the majority of which expires in 2024. The utilization of a portion of these losses may be limited in future years based on the profitability of certain entities. A valuation allowance is recorded to account for the unrealizable balances in the table above. The net increase of $22,899 in the valuation allowance is primarily due to newly created net operating loss carryforwards in state and foreign jurisdictions that the Company does not anticipate being able to utilize. The Company's foreign earnings continue to be indefinitely reinvested as of December 31, 2020. As a result of the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (2017 Tax Act), the Company does not expect such earnings to be taxable if remitted. Unrecognized tax benefits A reconciliation of the beginning and ending liability for unrecognized tax benefits that do not meet the more-likely-than-not threshold is as follows: Year ended December 31, 2020 2019 Beginning balance $ 68,214 $ 40,382 Additions for tax positions related to current year 2,293 3,378 Additions for tax positions related to prior years 258 24,722 Reductions related to lapse of applicable statute (133) (268) Reductions related to settlements with taxing authorities (430) — Ending balance $ 70,202 $ 68,214 As of December 31, 2020, the Company’s total liability for unrecognized tax benefits relating to tax positions that do not meet the more-likely-than-not threshold is $70,202, of which $66,607 would impact the Company’s effective tax rate if recognized. This balance represents an increase of $1,988 from the December 31, 2019 balance of $68,214. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had approximately $17,864 and $14,428, respectively, accrued for interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, net of federal tax benefit. |

For acquisition obligations and other notes payable, the carrying values presented here approximate their estimated fair values, based on estimates of their present values using level 2 interest rate inputs. (2) The Company's interest rate for its revolving line of credit as of December 31, 2020 was based on an Alternate Base Rate (ABR or Prime Rate) plus 0.50%, or 3.75%. Effective January 6, 2021 this was converted to a LIBOR-based rate of LIBOR plus 1.50%. (3) The interest rate presented for acquisition obligations and other notes payable is their weighted average interest rate based on the current fixed and LIBOR interest rate components in effect as of December 31, 2020. (4) Financing lease obligations are measured at their approximate present values at inception. The interest rate presented is the weighted average discount rate embedded in financing leases outstanding. The term of one ground lease runs to 2070, in addition to the other lease maturity dates presented in the table above. (5) As of December 31, 2020, the carrying amount of the Company's senior secured credit facilities includes a discount of $5,461 and deferred financing costs of $35,825 and the carrying amount of the Company's senior notes includes deferred financing costs of $36,431. As of December 31, 2019, the carrying amount of the Company's senior secured credit facilities included a discount of $6,457 and deferred financing costs of $45,444, and the carrying amount of the Company's senior notes included deferred financing costs of $20,939.

The Repricing Amendment did not change the interest rate on the Term Loan A or the revolving line of credit. No additional debt was incurred, nor any additional proceeds received, by the Company in connection with the Repricing Amendment. The majority of the Company's Term Loan B debt was considered modified in this transaction. As a result, the Company recognized debt refinancing charges of $2,948 in the year ended December 31, 2020 comprised partially of fees incurred on this transaction and partially of deferred financing costs written off for the portion of debt considered extinguished and reborrowed. For the portion of the Term Loan B debt that was considered extinguished and reborrowed in this refinancing, the Company recognized $68,842 in constructive financing cash outflows and financing cash inflows on the statement of cash flows, even though no funds were actually paid or received. Another $55,895 of the debt considered extinguished in this refinancing represented a non-cash financing activity. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company made regularly scheduled mandatory principal payments under its senior secured credit facilities totaling $54,688 on Term Loan A and $27,431 on Term Loan B-1. On June 9, 2020, the Company issued $1,750,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.625% senior notes due 2030 (the 4.625% Senior Notes) in a private offering pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The 4.625% Senior Notes pay interest on June 1 and December 1 of each year beginning December 1, 2020. The 4.625% Senior Notes are unsecured senior obligations and rank equally in right of payment with the Company's existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness. The 4.625% Senior Notes are guaranteed by each of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries that guarantee its senior secured credit facilities. The Company may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the 4.625% Senior Notes at any time prior to June 1, 2023 at 104.625% of the aggregate principal amount from the proceeds of one or more equity offerings, plus accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, the Company may redeem the 4.625% Senior Notes at any time prior to June 1, 2025 at a make-whole redemption price plus accrued and unpaid interest or, on and after such date, at certain redemption prices specified in the indenture governing these notes plus accrued and unpaid interest. The 4.625% Senior Notes contain restrictive covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its guarantors to, among other things, create certain liens, enter into certain sale/leaseback transactions, or merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of their assets. The 4.625% Senior Notes and related subsidiary guarantees do not have any registration or similar rights and are not expected to be registered for exchange on public markets. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company incurred $20,386 in fees, discounts and other professional expenses associated with this transaction that were capitalized and will amortize over the term of the 4.625% Senior Notes. On July 15, 2020, the Company used the net proceeds from these 4.625% Senior Notes, together with cash on hand, to redeem in full all $1,750,000 aggregate principal amount outstanding of its 5.125% Senior Notes plus accrued interest and redemption premium. The Company incurred debt redemption premium charges of $29,890 and deferred financing cost write-offs of $9,764 in connection with this redemption. On August 11, 2020, the Company issued $1,500,000 aggregate principal amount of 3.75% senior notes due 2031 (the 3.75% Senior Notes) in a private offering pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The 3.75% Senior Notes pay interest on February 15 and August 15 of each year beginning February 15, 2021. The 3.75% Senior Notes are unsecured senior obligations and rank equally in right of payment with the Company's existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness. The 3.75% Senior Notes are guaranteed by each of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries that guarantee its senior secured credit facilities. The Company may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the 3.75% Senior Notes at any time prior to August 15, 2023 at 103.75% of the aggregate principal amount from the proceeds of one or more equity offerings, plus accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, the Company may redeem the 3.75% Senior Notes at any time prior to February 15, 2026 at a make-whole redemption price plus accrued and unpaid interest or, on and after such date, at certain redemption prices specified in the indenture governing these notes plus accrued and unpaid interest.

The 3.75% Senior Notes and related subsidiary guarantees do not have any registration or similar rights and are not expected to be registered for exchange on public markets. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company incurred $17,936 in fees, discounts and other professional expenses associated with this transaction that were capitalized and will amortize over the term of the 3.75% Senior Notes. On August 21, 2020, the Company used the net proceeds from these 3.75% Senior Notes, together with cash on hand, to redeem in full all $1,500,000 aggregate principal amount outstanding of its 5.0% Senior Notes plus accrued interest and redemption premium. The Company incurred debt redemption premium charges of $37,500 and deferred financing cost write-offs of $8,866 in connection with this redemption. The Company's 2015 interest rate cap agreements expired on June 30, 2020, at which time the Company's 2019 cap agreements became effective. As of December 31, 2020, the Company maintains several interest rate cap agreements that have the economic effect of capping the Company's maximum exposure to LIBOR variable interest rate changes on specific portions of the Company's floating rate debt, including all of the Term Loan B-1 and a portion of the Term Loan A. The remaining $900,069 outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan A and the $75,000 outstanding balance of the revolving line of credit are subject to LIBOR-based interest rate volatility. The cap agreements are designated as cash flow hedges and, as a result, changes in their fair values are reported in other comprehensive income. The amortization of the original cap premium is recognized as a component of debt expense on the interest method over the terms of the cap agreements. These cap agreements do not contain credit-risk contingent features. The following table summarizes the Company’s interest rate cap agreements outstanding as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, which are classified in "Other long-term assets" on its consolidated balance sheet: Year ended December 31, December 31, 2020 2020 2019 Notional amount LIBOR maximum rate Effective date Expiration date Debt expense Recorded OCI loss Fair value 2019 cap agreements $ 3,500,000 2.00% 6/30/2020 6/30/2024 $ 2,755 $ (21,781) $ 2,671 $ 24,452 2015 cap agreements $ 3,500,000 3.50% 6/29/2018 6/30/2020 $ 4,326 $ — $ — $ — The following table summarizes the effects of the Company’s interest rate cap agreements for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018: Amount of unrealized (losses) gains in OCI on interest rate cap agreements Location of losses Reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income into net income Year ended December 31, Year ended December 31, Derivatives designated as cash flow hedges 2020 2019 2018 2020 2019 2018 Interest rate cap agreements $ (21,781) $ 1,566 $ (181) Debt expense $ 7,081 $ 8,591 $ 8,466 Related income tax 5,435 (415) 48 Related income tax (1,768) (2,214) (2,180) Total $ (16,346) $ 1,151 $ (133) $ 5,313 $ 6,377 $ 6,286 See Note 20 for further details on amounts recorded and reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income. The Company’s weighted average effective interest rate on its senior secured credit facilities at the end of 2020 was 2.03%, based upon the current margins in effect for the Term Loan A, Term Loan B-1 and revolving line of credit as of December 31, 2020. The Company’s weighted average effective interest rate on all debt, including the effect of interest rate caps and amortization of debt discount, was 3.59% for the year ended December 31, 2020 and 3.06% as of December 31, 2020. As of December 31, 2020, the Company’s interest rates were fixed on approximately 44.4% of its total debt. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had $925,000 available and $75,000 drawn on its $1,000,000 revolving line of credit under its senior secured credit facilities. Credit available under this revolver is reduced by the amount of any letters of credit outstanding under this facility, but there were no such letters of credit outstanding as of December 31, 2020. The Company also had approximately $64,636 of outstanding letters of credit under a separate bilateral secured letter of credit facility as of December 31, 2020. Debt expense Debt expense consisted of interest expense of $282,932, $419,639 and $461,897 and the amortization and accretion of debt discounts and premiums, amortization of deferred financing costs and the amortization of interest rate cap agreements of $21,179, $24,185 and $25,538 for 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. These interest expense amounts are net of capitalized interest. |

Leases [Abstract] | |
Leases | Leases The Company leases substantially all of its U.S. dialysis facilities. The majority of the Company’s facilities are leased under non-cancellable operating leases which range in terms from five years to 20 years and which contain renewal options of five years to ten years at the fair rental value at the time of renewal. Certain of the Company's leases are subject to periodic consumer price increases or contain fixed escalation clauses. See Note 1 for further information on how the Company accounts for leases. As of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, assets recorded under finance leases were $275,389 and $247,246, respectively, and accumulated amortization associated with finance leases was $49,345 and $27,193, respectively, included in property and equipment, net, on the Company's consolidated balance sheet. In certain markets, the Company acquires and develops dialysis centers. Upon completion, the Company sells the center to a third party and leases the space back with the intent of operating the center on a long term basis. Both the sale and leaseback terms are generally market terms. The lease terms are consistent with the Company's other operating leases with the majority of the leases under non-cancellable operating leases ranging in terms from five years to 20 years and which contain renewal options of five years to ten years at the fair rental value at the time of renewal. The Company adopted Topic 842, Leases beginning on January 1, 2019 through a modified retrospective approach for leases existing at the adoption date with a cumulative effect adjustment. Consequently, financial information was not updated for dates and periods before January 1, 2019. The components of lease expense were as follows: Year ended December 31, Lease cost 2020 2019 Operating lease cost (1) : Fixed lease expense $ 541,090 $ 526,352 Variable lease expense 122,729 119,740 Financing lease cost: Amortization of leased assets 24,720 23,724 Interest on lease liabilities 14,421 14,932 Net lease cost $ 702,960 $ 684,748 (1) Includes short-term lease expense and sublease income, which are immaterial.

Rent expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, including leases that contain fixed escalation clauses or include abatement provisions. Leasehold improvement incentives are deferred and amortized to rent expense over the term of the lease. Finance lease obligations are included in long-term debt. See Note 13 for further details on long-term debt. |

Retirement Benefits [Abstract] | |
Employee Benefit Plans | Employee benefit plans The Company has a 401(k) retirement savings plan for substantially all of its U.S. employees which has been established pursuant to applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). The plan allows for employees to contribute a percentage of their base annual salaries on a tax-deferred basis not to exceed IRC limitations. The Company maintains a 401(k) matching program under which the Company matches 50% of the employee's contribution up to 6% of the employee's salary, subject to certain limitations. The matching contributions are subject to certain eligibility and vesting conditions. For the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, the Company accrued matching contributions totaling approximately $70,180, $64,988 and $67,807, respectively. Prior to 2018, the Company did not provide matching contributions for its 401(k) savings plan. The Company also maintains a voluntary compensation deferral plan, the Deferred Compensation Plan, as well as other legacy deferral plans. The Deferred Compensation Plan is non-qualified and permits certain employees whose annualized base salary equals or exceeds a minimum annual threshold amount as set by the Company to elect to defer all or a portion of their annual bonus payment and up to 50% of their base salary into a deferral account maintained by the Company. Total contributions to this plan in 2020, 2019 and 2018 were $3,637, $1,751 and $3,090, respectively. Deferred amounts are generally paid out in cash at the participant’s election either in the first or second year following retirement or in a specified future period at least three to four years after the deferral election was effective. During 2020, 2019 and 2018 the Company distributed $3,139, $2,730 and $4,652, respectively, to participants from its deferred compensation plans. Participants are credited with their proportional amount of annual earnings from the plans. The assets of these plans are held in rabbi trusts subject to the claims of the Company’s general creditors in the event of its bankruptcy. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the total fair value of assets held in these plans' trusts was $43,844 and $39,527, respectively. The assets of these plans are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in "Other income, net". Any fair value changes to the corresponding liability balance are recorded as compensation expense. See Note 5 for further details. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Contingencies | Contingencies The majority of the Company’s revenues are from government programs and may be subject to adjustment as a result of: (i) examination by government agencies or contractors, for which the resolution of any matters raised may take extended periods of time to finalize; (ii) differing interpretations of government regulations by different Medicare contractors or regulatory authorities; (iii) differing opinions regarding a patient’s medical diagnosis or the medical necessity of services provided; and (iv) retroactive applications or interpretations of governmental requirements. In addition, the Company’s revenues from commercial payors may be subject to adjustment as a result of potential claims for refunds, as a result of government actions or as a result of other claims by commercial payors. The Company operates in a highly regulated industry and is a party to various lawsuits, demands, claims, qui tam suits, governmental investigations (which frequently arise from qui tam suits) and audits (including, without limitation, investigations or other actions resulting from its obligation to self-report suspected violations of law) and other legal proceedings, including, without limitation, those described below. The Company records accruals for certain legal proceedings and regulatory matters to the extent that the Company determines an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. As of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company’s total recorded accruals with respect to legal proceedings and regulatory matters, net of anticipated third party recoveries, were immaterial. While these accruals reflect the Company’s best estimate of the probable loss for those matters as of the dates of those accruals, the recorded amounts may differ materially from the actual amount of the losses for those matters, and any anticipated third party recoveries for any such losses may not ultimately be recoverable. Additionally, in some cases, no estimate of the possible loss or range of loss in excess of amounts accrued, if any, can be made because of the inherently unpredictable nature of legal proceedings and regulatory matters, which also may be impacted by various factors, including, without limitation, that they may involve indeterminate claims for monetary damages or may involve fines, penalties or non-monetary remedies; present novel legal theories or legal uncertainties; involve disputed facts; represent a shift in regulatory policy; are in the early stages of the proceedings; or may result in a change of business practices. Further, there may be various levels of judicial review available to the Company in connection with any such proceeding. The following is a description of certain lawsuits, claims, governmental investigations and audits and other legal proceedings to which the Company is subject. Certain Governmental Inquiries and Related Proceedings 2016 U.S. Attorney Texas Investigation : In February 2016, DaVita Rx, LLC (DaVita Rx), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, received a Civil Investigative Demand (CID) from the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Northern District of Texas. The government is conducting a federal False Claims Act (FCA) investigation concerning allegations that DaVita Rx presented or caused to be presented false claims for payment to the government for prescription medications, as well as an investigation into the Company’s relationships with pharmaceutical manufacturers. The government's investigation covers the period from January 1, 2006 through December 31, 2018. In December 2017, the Company finalized and executed a settlement agreement that resolved certain of the issues in the government's investigation and that included total monetary consideration of $63,700, as previously disclosed, of which $41,500 was an incremental cash payment and $22,200 was for amounts previously refunded, and all of which was previously accrued. The government’s investigation is ongoing with respect to issues related to DaVita Rx's historic relationships with certain pharmaceutical manufacturers, and in July 2018 the OIG served the Company with a subpoena seeking additional documents and information relating to those relationships. The Company is continuing to cooperate with the government in this investigation. 2017 U.S. Attorney Colorado Investigation : In November 2017, the U.S. Attorney’s Office, District of Colorado informed the Company of an investigation it was conducting into possible federal healthcare offenses involving DaVita Kidney Care, as well as several of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries. In addition to DaVita Kidney Care, the matter currently includes an investigation into DaVita Rx, DaVita Laboratory Services, Inc. (DaVita Labs), and RMS Lifeline Inc. (Lifeline). In each of August 2018 and May 2019, the Company received a CID pursuant to the FCA from the U.S. Attorney's Office relating to this investigation. In May 2020, the Company sold its interest in Lifeline, but the Company retained certain liabilities of the Lifeline business, including those related to this investigation. The Company is continuing to cooperate with the government in this investigation. 2018 U.S. Attorney Florida Investigation : In March 2018, DaVita Labs received two CIDs from the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Middle District of Florida that were identical in nature but directed to the two different labs. According to the face of the CIDs, the U.S. Attorney’s Office is conducting an investigation as to whether the Company’s subsidiary submitted claims for blood, urine, and fecal testing, where there were insufficient test validation or stability studies to ensure accurate results, in violation of the FCA. In October 2018, DaVita Labs received a subpoena from the OIG in connection with this matter requesting certain patient records linked to clinical laboratory tests. On September 30, 2019, the U.S. Attorney's Office notified the U.S. District Court, Middle District of Florida, of its decision not to elect to intervene at this time in the matter of U.S. ex rel. Lorne Holland, et al. v. DaVita Healthcare Partners, Inc. et al . The court then unsealed the complaint, which alleges violations of the FCA, by order dated the same day. In January 2020, the private party relators served the Company and DaVita Labs with an amended complaint. On February 24, 2020, the Company and DaVita Labs filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint. On June 25, 2020, the court denied the motion to dismiss. The Company and DaVita Labs answered the complaint on July 23, 2020. The Company and DaVita Labs dispute these allegations and intend to defend this action accordingly. 2020 U.S. Attorney New Jersey Investigation : In March 2020, the U.S. Attorney’s Office, District of New Jersey served the Company with a subpoena and a CID relating to an investigation being conducted by that office and the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Eastern District of Pennsylvania. The subpoena and CID request information on several topics, including certain of the Company’s joint venture arrangements with physicians and physician groups, medical director agreements, and compliance with its five-year Corporate Integrity Agreement, the term of which expired October 22, 2019. The Company is cooperating with the government in this investigation. 2020 California Department of Insurance Investigation : In April 2020, the California Department of Insurance (CDI) sent the Company an Investigative Subpoena relating to an investigation being conducted by that office. CDI issued a superseding subpoena in September 2020. The subpoena, as revised, requests information on a number of topics, including but not limited to the Company’s communications with patients about insurance plans and financial assistance from the American Kidney Fund (AKF), analyses of the potential impact of patients’ decisions to change insurance providers, and documents relating to donations or contributions to the AKF. The Company is cooperating with CDI in this investigation. 2020 Department of Justice Investigation : In October 2020, the Company received a CID from the Department of Justice pursuant to a False Claims Act investigation concerning allegations that DaVita Medical Group (DMG) may have submitted undocumented or unsupported diagnosis codes in connection with Medicare Advantage beneficiaries. The CID covers the period from January 1, 2015 through June 19, 2019, the date the Company completed the divestiture of DMG to Collaborative Care Holdings, LLC. The Company is cooperating with the government in this investigation. * * * Although the Company cannot predict whether or when proceedings might be initiated or when these matters may be resolved (other than as may be described above), it is not unusual for inquiries such as these to continue for a considerable period of time through the various phases of document and witness requests and on-going discussions with regulators and to develop over the course of time. In addition to the inquiries and proceedings specifically identified above, the Company frequently is subject to other inquiries by state or federal government agencies, many of which relate to qui tam complaints filed by relators. Negative findings or terms and conditions that the Company might agree to accept as part of a negotiated resolution of pending or future government inquiries or relator proceedings could result in, among other things, substantial financial penalties or awards against the Company, substantial payments made by the Company, harm to the Company’s reputation, required changes to the Company’s business practices, exclusion from future participation in the Medicare, Medicaid and other federal health care programs and, if criminal proceedings were initiated against the Company, members of its board of directors or management, possible criminal penalties, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company. Shareholder and Derivative Claims Peace Officers’ Annuity and Benefit Fund of Georgia Securities Class Action Civil Suit : On February 1, 2017, the Peace Officers’ Annuity and Benefit Fund of Georgia filed a putative federal securities class action complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado against the Company and certain executives. The complaint covers the time period of August 2015 to October 2016 and alleges, generally, that the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws concerning the Company’s financial results and revenue derived from patients who received charitable premium assistance from an industry-funded non-profit organization. The complaint further alleges that the process by which patients obtained commercial insurance and received charitable premium assistance was improper and "created a false impression of DaVita’s business and operational status and future growth prospects." In November 2017, the court appointed the lead plaintiff and an amended complaint was filed on January 12, 2018. On March 27, 2018, the Company and various individual defendants filed a motion to dismiss. On March 28, 2019, the court denied the motion to dismiss. The Company answered the complaint on May 28, 2019. On January 31, 2020, the plaintiffs filed a motion for class certification and the Company filed its opposition on June 29, 2020. While the Company continues to dispute the allegations, in July 2020, it reached an agreement in principle to resolve this matter without admitting to any liability. Settlement of this matter on the agreed terms is expected to be covered primarily with insurance proceeds, with the Company contributing an amount that would not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. A motion for preliminary approval of the settlement was granted by the court on October 27, 2020. The settlement is subject to, among other things, final approval by the court. In re DaVita Inc. Stockholder Derivative Litigation : On August 15, 2017, the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware consolidated three previously disclosed shareholder derivative lawsuits: the Blackburn Shareholder action filed on February 10, 2017, the Gabilondo Shareholder action filed on May 30, 2017, and the City of Warren Police and Fire Retirement System Shareholder action filed on June 9, 2017. The complaint covers the time period from 2015 to present and alleges, generally, breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, corporate waste, and misrepresentations and/or failures to disclose certain information in violation of the federal securities laws in connection with an alleged practice to direct patients with government-subsidized health insurance into private health insurance plans to maximize the Company’s profits. An amended complaint was filed in September 2017, and on December 18, 2017, the Company filed a motion to dismiss and a motion to stay proceedings in the alternative. On April 25, 2019, the court denied the Company's motion to dismiss. The Company answered the complaint on May 28, 2019. While the defendants continue to dispute the allegations, in July 2020, an agreement in principle was reached to resolve this matter without admitting to any liability. The Company’s Board of Directors (Board) approved the settlement on October 20, 2020. The court granted a motion for final approval of the settlement on January 27, 2021 and approved the settlement on January 29, 2021. As part of the settlement, the Company agreed to certain corporate governance policies, but will not make any financial contribution towards the settlement. Other Proceedings In addition to the foregoing, from time to time the Company is subject to other lawsuits, demands, claims, governmental investigations and audits and legal proceedings that arise due to the nature of its business, including, without limitation, contractual disputes, such as with payors, suppliers and others, employee-related matters and professional and general liability claims. From time to time, the Company also initiates litigation or other legal proceedings as a plaintiff arising out of contracts or other matters. * * * Other than as may be described above, the Company cannot predict the ultimate outcomes of the various legal proceedings and regulatory matters to which the Company is or may be subject from time to time, including those described in this Note 16 to these consolidated financial statements, or the timing of their resolution or the ultimate losses or impact of developments in those matters, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s revenues, earnings and cash flows. Further, any legal proceedings or regulatory matters involving the Company, whether meritorious or not, are time consuming, and often require management’s attention and result in significant legal expense, and may result in the diversion of significant operational resources, or otherwise harm the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows or reputation. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Noncontrolling Interests Subject to Put Provisions and Other Commitments | Noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions and other commitments Noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions The Company has potential obligations to purchase the equity interests held by third parties in many of its majority-owned dialysis partnerships and other nonconsolidated entities. These noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions constitute redeemable equity interests and are therefore classified as temporary equity and carried at estimated fair value on the Company's balance sheet. Specifically, these obligations are in the form of put provisions that are exercisable at the third-party owners’ discretion within specified periods outlined in each specific put provision. If these put provisions were exercised, the Company would be required to purchase the third-party owners’ equity interests, generally at the appraised fair market value of the equity interests or in certain cases at a predetermined multiple of earnings or cash flows attributable to the equity interests put to the Company, intended to approximate fair value. The methodology the Company uses to estimate the fair values of noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions assumes the higher of either a liquidation value of net assets or an average multiple of earnings, based on historical earnings, patient mix and other performance indicators that can affect future results, as well as other factors. The estimated fair values of noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions are a critical accounting estimate that involves significant judgments and assumptions and may not be indicative of the actual values at which the noncontrolling interests may ultimately be settled, which could vary significantly from the Company’s current estimates. The estimated fair values of noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions can fluctuate and the implicit multiple of earnings at which these noncontrolling interests obligations may be settled will vary significantly depending upon market conditions including potential purchasers’ access to the capital markets, which can impact the level of competition for dialysis and non-dialysis related businesses, the economic performance of these businesses and the restricted marketability of the third-party owners’ equity interests. The amount of noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions that employ a contractually predetermined multiple of earnings rather than fair value is immaterial. The Company also has certain potential commitments to provide working capital funding, if necessary, to certain nonconsolidated dialysis businesses that the Company manages and in which the Company owns a noncontrolling equity interest or which are wholly-owned by third parties of approximately $8,663. Certain consolidated dialysis partnerships are originally contractually scheduled to dissolve after terms ranging from ten years to 50 years. While noncontrolling interests in these limited life entities qualify as mandatorily redeemable financial instruments, they are subject to a classification and measurement scope exception from the accounting guidance generally applicable to other mandatorily redeemable financial instruments. Future distributions upon dissolution of these entities would be valued below the related noncontrolling interest carrying balances in the consolidated balance sheet. Other commitments In 2017, the Company entered into a Sourcing and Supply Agreement with Amgen USA Inc. (Amgen) that expires on December 31, 2022. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company will purchase EPO from Amgen in amounts necessary to meet no less than 90% of its requirements for erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) through the expiration of the contract. The actual amount of EPO that the Company will purchase will depend upon the amount of EPO administered during dialysis as prescribed by physicians and the overall number of patients that the Company serves. The Company has agreements with various suppliers to purchase established amounts of dialysis equipment, parts, and supplies. As of December 31, 2020, the remaining minimum purchase commitments under these arrangements were approximately $542,061, $540,715, $179,869, and $92,075 for the years 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024, respectively. If the Company fails to meet the minimum purchase commitments under these contracts during any year, it is required to pay the difference to the supplier. Other than the letters of credit disclosed in Note 13 to these consolidated financial statements, and the arrangements as described above, the Company has no off balance sheet financing arrangements as of December 31, 2020. |

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] | |
Long-term Incentive Compensation and Shareholders’ Equity | Long-term incentive compensation Long-term incentive compensation Long-term incentive program (LTIP) compensation includes both stock-based awards (principally stock-settled stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units and performance stock units) as well as long-term performance-based cash awards. Long-term incentive compensation expense, which is primarily general and administrative in nature, is attributed to the Company’s U.S. dialysis business, its corporate administrative support, and its ancillary services. The Company’s stock-based compensation expense for stock-settled awards is measured at the estimated fair value of awards on the date of grant and recognized on a cumulative straight-line basis over the vesting terms of the awards, unless the stock awards are based on non-market-based performance metrics, in which case expense is adjusted for the ultimate number of shares expected to be issued as of the end of each reporting period. Stock-based compensation expense for cash-settled awards is based on their estimated fair values as of the end of each reporting period. The expense for all LTIP awards is recognized net of expected forfeitures. Stock-based compensation to be settled in shares is recorded to the Company’s shareholders’ contributed capital, while stock-based compensation to be settled in cash is recorded as a liability. Shares issued upon exercise or, when applicable, vesting of stock awards, are issued from authorized but unissued shares. Long-term incentive compensation plans On June 11, 2020, the Company’s stockholders approved the DaVita Inc. 2020 Incentive Award Plan (the 2020 Plan). Prior to June 11, 2020 stock-based awards were granted under the DaVita Healthcare Partners Inc. 2011 Incentive Award Plan (the 2011 Plan). The 2011 Plan was terminated with respect to any new awards upon stockholder approval of the 2020 Plan. At the time the 2020 Plan was approved there were 8,730 shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2020 Plan, consisting of 5,000 newly authorized shares and 3,730 shares that were available for issuance under the 2011 Plan as of the effective date of the 2020 Plan and which became available for grant under the 2020 Plan, pursuant to the terms of the 2020 Plan. The 2020 Plan is the Company’s current omnibus equity compensation plan and provides for grants of stock-based awards to employees, directors and other individuals providing services to the Company, except that incentive stock options may only be awarded to employees. The 2020 Plan provides for the grant of stock appreciation rights, nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, restricted stock units, restricted stock, performance stock awards, dividend equivalents, stock payments, deferred stock unit awards, deferred stock awards and performance cash awards. The 2020 Plan mandates a maximum award term of 10 years for stock appreciation rights and stock options and stipulates that awards of these types be granted with a base or exercise price per share of not less than the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. Shares available under the 2020 Plan are also stated on a full value share basis rather than on an option-equivalent basis. The 2020 Plan therefore provides that shares available for issuance under the plan are reduced by one share available for every four shares underlying stock appreciation rights and stock options, and are reduced by one share available for every one share underlying stock-based awards other than stock appreciation rights and stock options. At December 31, 2020, there were 8,074 shares available for future grants under the 2020 Plan. The Company’s stock units awarded under the 2020 Plan generally vest over 36 months to 48 months from the date of grant. As of December 31, 2020, no stock appreciation rights have been awarded under the 2020 Plan. The 2011 Plan was the Company’s prior omnibus equity compensation plan and authorized the Company to award stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units, restricted stock, and other stock-based or performance-based awards. The 2011 Plan mandated a maximum award term of five years and stipulated that stock appreciation rights and stock options be granted with prices not less than fair market value on the date of grant. The 2011 Plan also required that full value share awards such as restricted stock units reduce shares available under the 2011 Plan at a ratio of 3.5:1. The Company’s stock appreciation rights and stock units awarded under the 2011 Plan generally vest over 36 months to 48 months from the date of grant. A combined summary of the status of the Company’s stock-settled awards under both the 2020 Plan and 2011 Plan, including base shares for stock-settled stock appreciation rights (SSARs) and stock-settled stock unit awards is as follows: Year ended December 31, 2020 Stock appreciation rights Stock units Awards Weighted Weighted Awards Weighted Outstanding at beginning of year 6,953 $ 64.10 3,160 Granted 2,765 $ 68.58 1,027 Added by performance factor 19 Exercised/Vested (894) $ 72.13 (351) Expired (494) $ 83.61 — Canceled (246) $ 61.36 (318) Outstanding at end of period 8,084 $ 63.64 3.0 3,537 1.8 Exercisable at end of period 987 $ 69.56 1.0 — — Weighted-average fair value of grants: 2020 $ 26.70 $ 77.83 2019 $ 14.04 $ 50.58 2018 $ 16.24 $ 66.23 Awards Outstanding Weighted average exercise price Awards exercisable Weighted average exercise price Range of SSARs base prices $50.01–$60.00 2,263 $ 52.53 2 $ 57.88 $60.01–$70.00 5,165 $ 66.99 610 $ 65.95 $70.01–$80.00 656 $ 75.60 375 $ 75.50 Total 8,084 $ 63.64 987 $ 69.56 For the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, the aggregate intrinsic value of stock-based awards exercised was $49,258, $11,475 and $31,045, respectively. At December 31, 2020, the aggregate intrinsic value of stock-based awards outstanding was $853,803 and the aggregate intrinsic value of stock awards exercisable was $47,208. Estimated fair value of stock-based compensation awards The Company has estimated the grant-date fair value of stock-settled stock appreciation rights awards using the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model and stock-settled stock unit awards at intrinsic value on the date of grant, except for portions of the Company’s performance stock unit awards for which a Monte Carlo simulation was used to estimate the grant-date fair value. The following assumptions were used in estimating these values and determining the related stock-based compensation expense attributable to the current period: Expected term of the awards: The expected term of awards granted represents the period of time that they are expected to remain outstanding from the date of grant. The Company determines the expected term of its stock awards based on its historical experience with similar awards, considering the Company’s historical exercise and post-vesting termination patterns. Expected volatility: Expected volatility represents the volatility anticipated over the expected term of the award. The Company determines the expected volatility for its awards based on the volatility of the price of its common stock over the most recent retrospective period commensurate with the expected term of the award, considering the volatilities expected by peer companies in near industries. Expected dividend yield: The Company has not paid dividends on its common stock and does not currently expect to pay dividends during the term of stock awards granted. Risk-free interest rate: The Company bases the expected risk-free interest rate on the implied yield currently available on stripped interest coupons of U.S. Treasury issues with a remaining term equivalent to the expected term of the award. A summary of the weighted average valuation inputs described above used for estimating the grant-date fair value of SSAR awards granted in the periods indicated is as follows: Year ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Expected term 4.8 4.0 4.2 Expected volatility 28.2 % 29.5 % 23.8 % Expected dividend yield — % — % — % Risk-free interest rate 1.5 % 2.2 % 2.9 % The Company estimates expected forfeitures based upon historical experience with separate groups of employees that have exhibited similar forfeiture behavior in the past. Stock-based compensation expense is recorded only for awards that are expected to vest. On November 4, 2019, the independent members of the Company’s Board of Directors (Board) approved an award of 2,500 premium-priced stock-settled stock appreciation rights (Premium-Priced Award) to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO), which award was subject to stockholder approval of a related amendment to the 2011 Plan. Stockholders approved such amendment to the 2011 Plan on January 23, 2020, authorizing the grant to the Company's CEO. Since stockholder approval occurred in 2020, this award was treated as granted in 2020 for accounting purposes. The base price of the Premium-Priced Award was $67.80 per share, which was a 20% premium to the clearing price of the Company's modified Dutch auction tender offer for its shares in 2019 (2019 Tender Offer). The award vests 50% on each of November 4, 2022 and November 4, 2023 and expires on November 4, 2024. The award includes a requirement that the CEO hold any shares acquired upon exercise of this award, net of shares used to cover related taxes, until November 4, 2024 (that is, for the full term of the award), subject to lapse of the holding period upon a change in control of the Company or due to the CEO's death or termination due to disability. Employee stock purchase plan The Employee Stock Purchase Plan entitles qualifying employees to purchase up to $25 of the Company’s common stock during each calendar year. The amounts used to purchase stock are accumulated through payroll withholdings or through optional lump sum payments made in advance of the first day of the purchase right period. This compensatory plan allows employees to purchase stock for the lesser of 100% of its fair market value on the first day of the purchase right period or 85% of its fair market value on the last day of the purchase right period. Purchase right periods begin on January 1 and July 1, and end on December 31. Contributions used to purchase the Company’s common stock under this plan for the 2020, 2019 and 2018 purchase periods were $17,148, $16,569 and $17,398, respectively. Shares purchased pursuant to the plan’s 2020, 2019 and 2018 purchase periods were 222, 315 and 398, respectively. At December 31, 2020, there were 6,189 shares remaining available for future grants under this plan. The fair value of participants’ purchase rights was estimated as of the beginning dates of the purchase right periods using the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model with the following weighted average assumptions for purchase right periods in 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively: expected volatility of 40.4%, 28.8% and 24.2%; risk-free interest rates of 1.0%, 2.6% and 1.9%, and no dividends. Using these assumptions, the weighted average estimated per share fair value of each purchase right was $22.06, $13.80 and $17.45 for 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Long-term incentive compensation expense and proceeds For the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, the Company recognized $99,643, $118,513 and $85,759, respectively, in total LTIP expense, of which $91,458, $63,705 and $73,582, respectively, was stock-based compensation expense for stock appreciation rights, stock units and discounted employee stock purchase plan purchases, which are primarily included in general and administrative expenses. The estimated tax benefits recorded for stock-based compensation in 2020, 2019 and 2018 were $11,775, $9,186 and $13,591, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, there was $189,713 of total estimated but unrecognized stock-based compensation expense under the Company’s equity compensation and employee stock purchase plans. The Company expects to recognize this expense over a weighted average remaining period of 1.4 years. The Company no longer has outstanding long-term performance-based cash awards in its principal U.S. dialysis business as the performance and accrual period for these awards ended December 31, 2019 with a final payout of $66,302 in 2020. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company adopted a retirement policy (Rule of 65 policy). The Rule of 65 policy generally provides that Section 16 officers that are a minimum age of 55 with five years of continuous service with the Company receive certain benefits with respect to their outstanding equity awards upon a qualifying retirement if the sum of their age plus years of service is greater than or equal to 65. These benefits generally include accelerated vesting of restricted stock unit awards, continued vesting of stock-settled stock appreciation rights and performance stock unit awards and an exercise window for stock-settled stock appreciation rights from the original vest date through the original expiration date regardless of continued employment, with pro rata vesting for a Rule of 65 retirement within one year of the award grant date. The adoption of the Rule of 65 policy resulted in a $14,704 modification charge and a net acceleration of expense of $9,727 during the year ended December 31, 2018 that is included in the expense amounts reported above. For the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, the Company received $8,957, $2,251 and $7,988, respectively, in actual tax benefits upon the exercise or vesting of stock awards. Since the Company issues stock-settled stock appreciation rights rather than stock options, there were no cash proceeds from stock option exercises. |

Charter documents & Delaware law The Company’s charter documents include provisions that may deter hostile takeovers, delay or prevent changes of control or changes in management, or limit the ability of stockholders to approve transactions that they may otherwise determine to be in their best interests. These include provisions prohibiting stockholders from acting by written consent, requiring 90 days advance notice for director nominations and stockholder proposals and granting the Company's Board of Directors the authority to issue up to 5,000 shares of preferred stock and to determine the rights and preferences of the preferred stock without the need for further stockholder approval. The Company is also subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law which, subject to exceptions, prohibits the Company from engaging in any business combinations with any interested stockholder, as defined in that section, for a period of three years following the date on which that stockholder became an interested stockholder.

The Company also recognized a non-cash gain of $1,821. During 2019, the Company acquired seven dialysis centers in the U.S. and 16 dialysis centers outside the U.S. for a total of $98,836 in net cash, earn-outs of $23,536, and deferred purchase price and liabilities assumed of $4,326. During 2018, the Company acquired 18 dialysis centers in the U.S. and 28 dialysis centers outside the U.S. for a total of $176,161 in net cash, earn-outs of $1,246 and deferred purchase price of $34,394. In one of these 2018 transactions the Company acquired a controlling interest in a previously nonconsolidated U.S. dialysis partnership for which the Company recognized a non-cash gain of $28,152 on its prior interest upon consolidation. The assets and liabilities for all acquisitions were recorded at their estimated fair values at the dates of the acquisitions and are included in the Company’s financial statements, as are their operating results, from the designated effective dates of the acquisitions. The initial purchase price allocations for these transactions have been recorded at estimated fair values based on information available to management and will be finalized when certain information arranged to be obtained has been received. For several of the 2020 acquisitions, certain income tax amounts are pending final evaluation and quantification of any pre-acquisition tax contingencies. In addition, valuation of intangibles, leases and certain other working capital items relating to several of these acquisitions are pending final quantification. The following table summarizes the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in these transactions and recognized at their acquisition dates at estimated fair values, as well as the estimated fair value of noncontrolling interests assumed in these transactions: Year ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Current assets $ 23,607 $ 6,713 $ 23,686 Property and equipment 37,457 4,842 11,421 Customer relationships 34,625 — — Noncompetition agreements and other long-term assets 10,168 1,980 3,079 Indefinite-lived licenses 22,136 31,858 23,656 Goodwill 130,057 90,226 278,348 Deferred income taxes (3,962) — — Liabilities assumed (34,068) (7,159) (19,946) Noncontrolling interests assumed (1,729) (1,762) (80,291) $ 218,291 $ 126,698 $ 239,953 The following summarizes weighted-average estimated useful lives of amortizable intangible assets acquired during 2020, 2019 and 2018, as well as goodwill deductible for tax purposes associated with these acquisitions: Year ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Weighted-average estimated useful lives: Customer relationships 18 Noncompetition agreements 5 6 6 Goodwill deductible for tax purposes $ 94,318 $ 88,517 $ 165,013 Pro forma financial information (unaudited) The following summary, prepared on a pro forma basis, combines the results of operations as if all acquisitions within continuing operations in 2020 and 2019 had been consummated as of the beginning of 2019, including the impact of certain adjustments such as amortization of intangibles, interest expense on acquisition financing and income tax effects.

Contingent earn-out obligations are remeasured to fair value at each reporting date until the contingencies are resolved with changes in the liability due to the remeasurement recognized in earnings. See Note 24 for further details. As of December 31, 2020, the Company estimated the fair value of these contingent earn-out obligations to be $30,248, of which a total of $13,025 is included in other current liabilities, and the remaining $17,223 is included in other long-term liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract] | |
Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations | Discontinued operations previously held for sale DaVita Medical Group (DMG) On June 19, 2019, the Company completed the sale of its DMG business to Optum, a subsidiary of UnitedHealth Group Inc., for an aggregate purchase price of $4,340,000, prior to certain closing and post-closing adjustments specified in the related equity purchase agreement dated as of December 5, 2017, as amended as of September 20, 2018 and as of December 11, 2018 (as amended, the equity purchase agreement). The Company recorded a preliminary estimated pre-tax net loss of approximately $23,022 on the sale of its DMG business in 2019. This preliminary net loss was based on initial estimates of the Company's expected aggregate proceeds from the sale, net of transaction costs and obligations, as well as the estimated values of DMG net assets sold as of the closing date. Those estimated net proceeds included $4,465,476 in cash received from Optum at closing, or $3,824,509 net of cash and restricted cash included in the DMG net assets sold. At close of the DMG sale, the Company's ultimate net sale proceeds remained subject to resolution of certain post-closing purchase price adjustments described in the equity purchase agreement. In the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company and Optum reached agreement on the final purchase price for the DMG sale, which resulted in an additional payment by the Company to Optum of $47,000 and an additional loss on sale of $17,976. In the first quarter of 2020, the Company recognized $9,980 in additional tax benefits under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act related to its period of DMG ownership, which were also recognized as an adjustment to the Company's loss on sale of the DMG business. Under the equity purchase agreement, the Company also has certain continuing indemnification obligations that could require payments to the buyer relating to the Company's previous ownership and operation of the DMG business. Potential payments under these provisions, if any, remain subject to continuing uncertainties and the amounts of such payments could be significant to the Company. The following table presents the financial results of discontinued operations related to DMG: Year ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Net revenues $ — $ 2,713,059 $ 4,963,792 Expenses — 2,543,865 4,962,686 Goodwill and other asset impairment charges — — 41,537 Valuation adjustment on disposal group — — 316,840 Income (loss) from discontinued operations before taxes — 169,194 (357,271) Loss on sale of discontinued operations before taxes (7,996) (23,022) — Income tax expense 1,657 40,689 99,768 Net (loss) income from discontinued operations, net of tax $ (9,653) $ 105,483 $ (457,038) The following table presents cash flows of discontinued operations related to DMG: Year ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Net cash provided by operating activities from discontinued operations $ — $ 99,634 $ 290,684 Net cash used in investing activities from discontinued operations $ — $ (43,442) $ (57,382) DMG acquisitions |

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Variable Interest Entities | Variable interest entities The Company manages or maintains an ownership interest in certain legal entities subject to the consolidation guidance applicable to variable interest entities (VIEs). Almost all of these legal entities are either U.S. dialysis partnerships encumbered by guaranteed debt, U.S. dialysis limited partnerships, or other legal entities subject to nominee ownership arrangements. Under U.S. GAAP, VIEs typically include entities for which (i) the entity’s equity is not sufficient to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support; (ii) the equity holders as a group lack the power to direct the activities that most significantly influence the entity’s economic performance, the obligation to absorb the entity’s expected losses, or the right to receive the entity’s expected returns; or (iii) the voting rights of some investors are not proportional to their obligations to absorb the entity’s losses. The substantial majority of VIEs the Company is associated with are U.S. dialysis partnerships which the Company manages and in which it maintains a controlling majority ownership interest. These U.S. dialysis partnerships are considered VIEs either because they are (i) encumbered by debt guaranteed proportionately by the partners that is considered necessary to finance the partnership's activities, or (ii) in the form of limited partnerships for which the limited partners are not considered to have substantive kick-out or participating rights. The Company consolidates virtually all such U.S. dialysis partnerships. The Company also relies on the operating activities of certain legal entities in which it does not maintain a controlling ownership interest but over which it has indirect influence and of which it is considered the primary beneficiary. These entities are typically subject to nominee ownership and transfer restriction agreements that effectively transfer the majority of the economic risks and rewards of their ownership to the Company. The Company’s management, restriction and other agreements concerning such nominee-owned entities typically include both financial terms and protective and participating rights to the entities’ operating, strategic and non-clinical governance decisions which transfer substantial powers over and economic responsibility for these entities to the Company. The Company consolidates all of the nominee-owned entities with which it is most closely associated. At December 31, 2020, these consolidated financial statements include total assets of VIEs above of $310,190 and total liabilities and noncontrolling interests of these VIEs to third parties of $216,632. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Values of Financial Instruments | Fair values of financial instruments The Company measures the fair value of certain assets, liabilities, and noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions (redeemable equity interests classified as temporary equity) based upon certain valuation techniques that include observable or unobservable inputs and assumptions that market participants would use in pricing these assets, liabilities, temporary equity and commitments. The Company has also classified assets, liabilities and temporary equity that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis into the appropriate fair value hierarchy levels as defined by the FASB. The following table summarizes the Company’s assets, liabilities and temporary equity measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2020 and 2019: December 31, 2020 Total Quoted prices in Significant other Significant Assets Investments in equity securities $ 44,077 $ 44,077 $ — $ — Interest rate cap agreements $ 2,671 $ — $ 2,671 $ — Liabilities Contingent earn-out obligations $ 30,248 $ — $ — $ 30,248 Temporary equity Noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions $ 1,330,028 $ — $ — $ 1,330,028 December 31, 2019 Assets Investments in equity securities $ 39,951 $ 39,951 $ — $ — Interest rate cap agreements $ 24,452 $ — $ 24,452 $ — Liabilities Contingent earn-out obligations $ 24,586 $ — $ — $ 24,586 Temporary equity Noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions $ 1,180,376 $ — $ — $ 1,180,376 For reconciliations of changes in contingent earn-out obligations and noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions during the year ended at December 31, 2020 and 2019, see Note 21 and the consolidated statement of equity, respectively. Investments in equity securities represent investments in various open-ended registered investment companies (mutual funds) and common stock and are recorded at fair value estimated based on reported market prices or redemption prices, as applicable. See Note 5 for further discussion. Interest rate cap agreements are recorded at fair value estimated from valuation models utilizing the income approach and commonly accepted valuation techniques that use inputs from closing prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets as well as other relevant observable market inputs at quoted intervals such as current interest rates, forward yield curves, implied volatility and credit default swap pricing. The Company does not believe the ultimate amount that could be realized upon settlement of these interest rate cap agreements would be materially different from the fair value estimates currently reported. See Note 13 for further discussion. The estimated fair value measurements of contingent earn-out obligations are primarily based on unobservable inputs, including projected earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) and revenue. The estimated fair value of these contingent earn-out obligations is remeasured as of each reporting date and could fluctuate based upon any significant changes in key assumptions, such as changes in the Company credit risk adjusted rate that is used to discount obligations to present value. See Note 21 for further discussion. The estimated fair value of noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions is based principally on the higher of either estimated liquidation value of net assets or a multiple of earnings for each subject dialysis partnership, based on historical earnings, revenue mix, and other performance indicators that can affect future results. The multiples used for these valuations are derived from observed ownership transactions for dialysis businesses between unrelated parties in the U.S. in recent years, and the specific valuation multiple applied to each dialysis partnership is principally determined by its recent and expected revenue mix and contribution margin. As of December 31, 2020, an increase or decrease in the weighted average multiple used in these valuations of one times EBITDA would change the estimated fair value of these noncontrolling interests by approximately $160,000. See Note 17 for a discussion of the Company’s methodology for estimating the fair values of noncontrolling interests subject to put obligations. The Company's fair value estimates for its senior secured credit facilities and senior notes are based upon quoted bid and ask prices for these instruments, typically a level 2 input. See Note 13 for further discussion of the Company's debt. Other financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, other accrued liabilities, lease liabilities and debt. The balances of financial instruments other than debt and lease liabilities are presented in the consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2020 and 2019 at their approximate fair values due to the short-term nature of their settlements. |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Segment Reporting | Segment reporting The Company's operations are comprised of its U.S. dialysis and related lab services business (its U.S. dialysis business), its various ancillary services and strategic initiatives, including its international operations (collectively, its ancillary services), and its corporate administrative support. See Note 1 "Organization" for a summary description of the Company's businesses. On June 19, 2019, the Company completed the sale of its DMG business to Optum. As a result of this transaction, DMG's results of operations have been reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented. The Company’s operating segments have been defined based on the separate financial information that is regularly produced and reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker in making decisions about allocating resources to and assessing the financial performance of the Company’s various operating lines of business. The chief operating decision maker for the Company is its Chief Executive Officer. The Company’s separate operating segments include its U.S. dialysis and related lab services business, each of its ancillary services and strategic initiatives, its kidney care operations in each foreign sovereign jurisdiction, its other health operations in each foreign sovereign jurisdiction, and its equity method investment in the APAC joint venture. The U.S. dialysis and related lab services business qualifies as a separately reportable segment, and all other ancillary services and strategic initiatives operating segments, including the international operating segments, have been combined and disclosed in the other segments category. The Company’s operating segment financial information included in this report is prepared on the internal management reporting basis that the chief operating decision maker uses to allocate resources and assess the financial performance of the Company's operating segments. For internal management reporting, segment operations include direct segment operating expenses but generally exclude corporate administrative support costs, which consist primarily of indirect labor, benefits and long-term incentive compensation expenses of certain departments which provide support to all of the Company’s various operating lines of business, except to the extent that such costs are charged to and borne by certain ancillary services and strategic initiatives via internal management fees. These corporate administrative support costs are reduced by internal management fees received from the Company’s ancillary lines of business. The following is a summary of segment revenues, segment operating margin (loss), and a reconciliation of segment operating margin to consolidated income from continuing operations before income taxes: Year ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Segment revenues: U.S. dialysis Patient service revenues: External sources $ 10,488,731 $ 10,421,401 $ 10,274,046 Intersegment revenues 144,091 131,199 92,950 U.S. dialysis revenues before provision 10,632,822 10,552,600 10,366,996 Provision for uncollectible accounts (13,458) (21,715) (50,927) U.S. dialysis patient service revenues 10,619,364 10,530,885 10,316,069 Other revenues (1) External sources 39,376 30,895 19,880 Intersegment revenues 1,195 1,126 — Total U.S. dialysis revenues $ 10,659,935 $ 10,562,906 $ 10,335,949 Other - Ancillary services Net patient service revenues 550,978 497,021 437,275 Other external sources 484,977 460,877 724,577 Intersegment revenues 16,743 14,030 34,236 Total ancillary services 1,052,698 971,928 1,196,088 Total net segment revenues 11,712,633 11,534,834 11,532,037 Elimination of intersegment revenues (162,029) (146,355) (127,186) Consolidated revenues $ 11,550,604 $ 11,388,479 $ 11,404,851 Segment operating margin (loss): U.S. dialysis $ 1,917,604 $ 1,924,826 $ 1,709,721 Other - Ancillary services (2) (76,261) (189,174) (93,789) Total segment margin 1,841,343 1,735,652 1,615,932 Reconciliation of segment operating margin to consolidated income from Corporate administrative support (146,707) (92,335) (90,108) Consolidated operating income 1,694,636 1,643,317 1,525,824 Debt expense (304,111) (443,824) (487,435) Debt prepayment, refinancing and redemption charges (89,022) (33,402) — Other income 16,759 29,348 10,089 Income from continuing operations before income taxes $ 1,318,262 $ 1,195,439 $ 1,048,478 - (1) Includes management fee revenues from providing management and administrative services to dialysis ventures in which the Company owns a noncontrolling interest or which are wholly-owned by third parties.

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of presentation | Basis of presentation These consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). The financial statements include DaVita Inc. and its subsidiaries, partnerships and other entities in which it maintains a majority voting or other controlling financial interest (collectively, the Company). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Equity investments in investees over which the Company only has significant influence are recorded on the equity method, while investments in other equity securities are recorded at fair value or on the adjusted cost method, as applicable. For the Company’s international subsidiaries, local currencies are considered their functional currencies. Translation adjustments result from translating the financial statements of the Company’s international subsidiaries from their functional currencies into the Company’s reporting currency (the U.S. dollar, or USD). Prior year classifications have been conformed to the current year presentation. The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date these consolidated financial statements were issued and has included all necessary adjustments and disclosures. |
Use of estimates | Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities, contingencies and noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions. Although actual results in subsequent periods will differ from these estimates, such estimates are developed based on the best information available to management and management’s best judgments at the time. All significant assumptions and estimates underlying the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes are regularly reviewed and updated when necessary. Changes in estimates are reflected in the financial statements based upon on-going actual experience trends or subsequent settlements and realizations depending on the nature and predictability of the estimates and contingencies. The most significant assumptions and estimates underlying these consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes involve revenue recognition and accounts receivable, impairments of goodwill, accounting for income taxes, fair value estimates and loss contingencies. Specific estimating risks and contingencies are further addressed within these notes to the consolidated financial statements. |
Patient service net revenues and accounts receivable | Revenues On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) using the cumulative effect method for those contracts that were not substantially completed as of January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning on and after January 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606. The adoption of this new standard primarily changed the Company’s presentation of revenues, provision for uncollectible accounts and allowance for doubtful accounts. Topic 606 requires revenue to be recognized based on the Company’s estimate of the transaction price the Company expects to collect as a result of satisfying its performance obligations. Accordingly, for performance obligations satisfied after the adoption of Topic 606, the Company no longer separately presents a provision for uncollectible accounts on the consolidated income statement and no longer presents the related allowance for doubtful accounts on the consolidated balance sheet. However, as a result of the Company’s election to apply Topic 606 only to contracts not substantially completed as of January 1, 2018, the Company continued to maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts related to performance obligations satisfied prior to the adoption of Topic 606. Net collections or write-offs of accounts receivable generated prior to January 1, 2018, beyond amounts previously reserved thereon, are presented in the provision for uncollectible accounts on the consolidated income statement in accordance with Topic 605. Dialysis patient service revenues Revenues are recognized based on the Company’s estimate of the transaction price the Company expects to collect as a result of satisfying its performance obligations. Dialysis patient service revenues are recognized in the period services are provided based on these estimates. Revenues consist primarily of payments from government and commercial health plans for dialysis services provided to patients. A usual and customary fee schedule is maintained for the Company’s dialysis treatments and related lab services; however, actual collectible revenue is normally recognized at a discount from the fee schedule. Revenues associated with Medicare and Medicaid programs are estimated based on: (a) the payment rates that are established by statute or regulation for the portion of payment rates paid by the government payor (e.g., 80% for Medicare patients) and (b) for the portion not paid by the primary government payor, estimates of the amounts ultimately collectible from other government programs providing secondary coverage (e.g., Medicaid secondary coverage), the patient’s commercial health plan secondary coverage, or the patient. Under Medicare’s bundled payment rate system, services covered by Medicare are subject to estimating risk, whereby reimbursements from Medicare can vary significantly depending upon certain patient characteristics and other variable factors. Even with the bundled payment rate system, Medicare payments for bad debt claims as established by cost reports require evidence of collection efforts. As a result, billing and collection of Medicare bad debt claims can be delayed significantly and final payment is subject to audit. The Company’s revenue recognition is estimated based on its judgment regarding its ability to collect, which depends upon its ability to effectively capture, document and bill for Medicare’s base payment rate as well as these other variable factors. Medicaid payments, when Medicaid coverage is secondary, can also be difficult to estimate. For many states, Medicaid payment terms and methods differ from Medicare, and may prevent accurate estimation of individual payment amounts prior to billing. Revenues associated with commercial health plans are estimated based on contractual terms for the patients under healthcare plans with which the Company has formal agreements, non-contracted health plan coverage terms if known, estimated secondary collections, historical collection experience, historical trends of refunds and payor payment adjustments (retractions), inefficiencies in the Company’s billing and collection processes that can result in denied claims for payments, delays in collections due to payor payment inefficiencies, and regulatory compliance matters. Commercial revenue recognition also involves significant estimating risks. With many larger commercial insurers, the Company has several different contracts and payment arrangements, and these contracts often include only a subset of the Company’s centers. In certain circumstances, it may not be possible to determine which contract, if any, should be applied prior to billing. In addition, for services provided by non-contracted centers, final collection may require specific negotiation of a payment amount, typically at a significant discount from the Company’s usual and customary rates. Other revenues Other revenues consist of fees for management and administrative support services provided to outpatient dialysis businesses that the Company does not own or in which the Company owns a noncontrolling interest as well as revenues associated with the Company's non-dialysis ancillary services and strategic initiatives. Revenues associated with dialysis management services, integrated care services, clinical research programs, physician services, and ESRD seamless care organizations are estimated in the period services are provided. Revenues associated with pharmacy services until that business was closed in 2018 were estimated as prescriptions were filled and shipped to patients. Revenues associated with direct primary care until that business was sold in 2018 were estimated over the membership period. |
Allowance for uncollectible accounts | The adoption of this new standard primarily changed the Company’s presentation of revenues, provision for uncollectible accounts and allowance for doubtful accounts. Topic 606 requires revenue to be recognized based on the Company’s estimate of the transaction price the Company expects to collect as a result of satisfying its performance obligations. Accordingly, for performance obligations satisfied after the adoption of Topic 606, the Company no longer separately presents a provision for uncollectible accounts on the consolidated income statement and no longer presents the related allowance for doubtful accounts on the consolidated balance sheet. However, as a result of the Company’s election to apply Topic 606 only to contracts not substantially completed as of January 1, 2018, the Company continued to maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts related to performance obligations satisfied prior to the adoption of Topic 606. Net collections or write-offs of accounts receivable generated prior to January 1, 2018, beyond amounts previously reserved thereon, are presented in the provision for uncollectible accounts on the consolidated income statement in accordance with Topic 605. |
Other income | Other income Other income includes interest income on cash and cash equivalents and short- and long-term investments, realized and unrealized gains and losses recognized on investments, and foreign currency transaction gains and losses. |
Cash and cash equivalents | Cash and cash equivalents Cash equivalents are short-term highly liquid investments readily convertible to known amounts of cash that typically mature within three months or less at date of purchase. |
Restricted cash and equivalents | Restricted cash and equivalents Restricted cash and cash equivalents include funds held in trust to satisfy insurer and state regulatory requirements related to wholly-owned captive insurance companies that bear professional and general liability and workers' compensation risks for the Company as well as funds held in escrow for certain legal settlements pending finalization. |
Investments in debt and equity securities | Investments in debt and equity securities The Company classifies certain debt securities as held-to-maturity and records them at amortized cost based on the Company’s intentions and strategies concerning those investments. Equity securities that have readily determinable fair values or redemption values are recorded at estimated fair value with changes in fair value recognized in current earnings within "Other income, net". These debt and equity investments are classified as "short-term investments" or "long-term investments" on the Company's consolidated balance sheet. See Note 5 for further details. |
Inventories | Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or net realizable value and consist principally of pharmaceuticals and dialysis-related supplies. Rebates related to inventory purchases are recorded when earned and are based on certain qualification requirements which are dependent on a variety of factors including future pricing levels from the manufacturer and related data submission. |
Property and equipment | Property and equipmentProperty and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization and is further reduced by any impairments. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Disposition gains and losses are included in current operating expenses. Property and equipment assets are reviewed for possible impairment whenever significant events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment may have occurred. |
Leases | Leases The Company leases substantially all of its U.S. dialysis facilities. The majority of the Company’s facilities are leased under non-cancellable operating leases which contain renewal options. These renewal options are included in the Company's determination of the right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities when renewal is considered reasonably certain at the commencement date. Certain of the Company's leases are subject to periodic consumer price increases or contain fixed escalation clauses. The Company categorizes leases with contractual terms longer than twelve months as either operating or finance leases. Finance leases are generally those leases that allow the Company to substantially utilize or pay for the entire asset over its estimated life. All other leases are categorized as operating leases. The Company has elected the practical expedient to not separate lease components from non-lease components for its financing and operating leases. The Company has also elected the short-term lease recognition exemption and does not recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for leases with a term of less than 12 months. Financing and operating right-of-use assets are recognized based on the net present value of lease payments over the lease term plus expected renewals as of the commencement date. Since most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate of return, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement date or remeasurement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Assets acquired under finance leases are recorded on the balance sheet within property and equipment, net and liabilities for finance lease obligations are recorded within long-term debt. Finance lease assets are amortized to depreciation expense on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the expected lease term. |
Amortizable intangibles | Amortizable intangibles Amortizable intangible assets include noncompetition agreements, hospital service contracts, and customer relationships arising from other service contracts, each of which have finite useful lives. Amortization expense is computed using the straight-line method over the useful lives of the assets estimated as follows: non-competition agreements and hospital acute service contracts over the contract term, and customer relationships from other service contracts over the remaining contract term plus expected renewal periods. Amortizable intangible assets are reviewed for possible impairment whenever significant events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment may have occurred. |
Indefinite-lived intangibles | Indefinite-lived intangibles Indefinite-lived intangible assets include international licenses and accreditations that allow the Company to be reimbursed for providing dialysis services to patients, each of which has an indefinite useful life. Indefinite-lived intangibles are not amortized, but are assessed for impairment at least annually and whenever significant events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment may have occurred. Costs to renew indefinite-lived intangible assets are expensed as incurred. |
Equity investments and other investments | Equity method and other investments Equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values are carried on the equity method if the Company maintains significant influence over the investee. Equity investments without readily determinable fair values for which the Company does not maintain significant influence over the investee are carried either at estimated fair value or on the adjusted cost method, as determined on an investment-specific basis. The adjusted cost method represents the Company's cost for an investment, net of any other-than-temporary impairments, as adjusted for any subsequent observation of the investment's fair value. These equity method and adjusted cost method investments are classified as “Equity method and other investments” on the Company's consolidated balance sheet. See Note 9 for further details. Equity method and other investments are assessed for other-than-temporary impairment when significant events or changes in circumstances indicate that an other-than-temporary impairment may have occurred. An other-than-temporary impairment charge is recorded when the fair value of an investment has fallen below its carrying amount and the shortfall is expected to be indefinitely or permanently unrecoverable. |
Goodwill | Goodwill Goodwill represents the difference between the fair value of businesses acquired and the fair value of the identifiable tangible and intangible net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized, but is assessed by individual reporting unit for impairment as circumstances warrant and at least annually. An impairment charge is recognized when and to the extent a reporting unit's carrying amount is determined to exceed its fair value. The Company operates multiple reporting units. See Note 10 for further details. |
Self insurance | Self-insuranceThe Company predominantly self-insures its professional and general liability and workers' compensation risks through its wholly-owned captive insurance companies, with excess or reinsurance coverage for additional protection. The Company is also predominantly self-insured with respect to employee medical and other health benefits. The Company records insurance liabilities for the professional and general liability, workers’ compensation, and employee health benefit risks that it retains and estimates its liability for those risks using third party actuarial calculations that are based upon historical claims experience and expectations for future claims. |
Income taxes | Income taxes Federal and state income taxes are computed at currently enacted tax rates less tax credits using the asset and liability method. Deferred taxes are adjusted both for items that do not currently have tax consequences and for the cumulative effect of any changes in tax rates from those previously used to determine deferred tax assets or liabilities. Tax provisions include amounts that are currently payable, changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities that arise because of temporary differences between the timing of when items of income and expense are recognized for financial reporting and income tax purposes, changes in the recognition of tax positions and any changes in the valuation allowance caused by a change in judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts expected to be realized. The Company uses a recognition threshold of more-likely-than-not and a measurement attribute on all tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return in order to be recognized in the financial statements. Once the recognition threshold is met, the tax position is then measured to determine the actual amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. |
Stock-based compensation | Stock-based compensation The Company’s stock-based compensation expense for stock-settled awards is measured at the estimated fair value of awards on the date of grant and recognized on a cumulative straight-line basis over the vesting terms of the awards, unless the stock awards are based on non-market based performance metrics, in which case expense is adjusted for the ultimate number of shares expected to be issued as of the end of each reporting period. Stock-based compensation expense for cash-settled awards is based on their estimated fair values as of the end of each reporting period. The expense for all stock-based awards is recognized net of expected forfeitures. |
Interest rate swap and cap agreements | Interest rate cap agreements The Company often carries a combination of current or forward interest rate caps on portions of its variable rate debt as a means of hedging its exposure to changes in LIBOR interest rates as part of its overall interest rate risk management strategy. These interest rate caps are not held for trading or speculative purposes and are designated as qualifying cash flow hedges. See Note 13 for further details. |
Noncontrolling interests | Noncontrolling interestsNoncontrolling interests represent third-party equity ownership interests in entities which are consolidated by the Company for financial statement reporting purposes. Noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions The Company has potential obligations to purchase the equity interests held by third parties in many of its majority-owned dialysis partnerships and other nonconsolidated entities. These noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions constitute redeemable equity interests and are therefore classified as temporary equity and carried at estimated fair value on the Company's balance sheet. Specifically, these obligations are in the form of put provisions that are exercisable at the third-party owners’ discretion within specified periods outlined in each specific put provision. If these put provisions were exercised, the Company would be required to purchase the third-party owners’ equity interests, generally at the appraised fair market value of the equity interests or in certain cases at a predetermined multiple of earnings or cash flows attributable to the equity interests put to the Company, intended to approximate fair value. The methodology the Company uses to estimate the fair values of noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions assumes the higher of either a liquidation value of net assets or an average multiple of earnings, based on historical earnings, patient mix and other performance indicators that can affect future results, as well as other factors. The estimated fair values of noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions are a critical accounting estimate that involves significant judgments and assumptions and may not be indicative of the actual values at which the noncontrolling interests may ultimately be settled, which could vary significantly from the Company’s current estimates. The estimated fair values of noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions can fluctuate and the implicit multiple of earnings at which these noncontrolling interests obligations may be settled will vary significantly depending upon market conditions including potential purchasers’ access to the capital markets, which can impact the level of competition for dialysis and non-dialysis related businesses, the economic performance of these businesses and the restricted marketability of the third-party owners’ equity interests. The amount of noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions that employ a contractually predetermined multiple of earnings rather than fair value is immaterial. |
Fair value estimates | Fair value estimates Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements are determined based on the principal or most advantageous market for the item being measured, assume that buyers and sellers are independent, willing and able to transact, and knowledgeable, with access to all information customarily available in such a transaction, and are based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the item, not assumptions specific to the reporting entity. |
New accounting standards | New accounting standards New standards recently adopted In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments . The amendments in this ASU amend the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the incurred loss methodology for financial instruments and off-balance sheet credit exposures. The amendment requires entities to consider a broader range of information to estimate expected credit losses, which may result in earlier recognition of losses. The amendments in this ASU became effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2020 and were applied using a modified retrospective basis. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-13 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework -Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement . The applicable amendments in this ASU remove requirements for disclosures concerning transfers between fair value measurement levels 1, 2 and 3 and disclosures concerning valuation processes for level 3 fair value measurements. The applicable amendments in this ASU also add a requirement to separately disclose the changes in unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income for the reporting period for level 3 items measured at fair value on a recurring basis, and require disclosure of the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in this ASU became effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2020 and were applied on a prospective basis. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract . ASU No. 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The Company adopted this ASU as of January 1, 2020, using the prospective transition approach, which allows the Company to change the accounting method without restating prior periods or booking cumulative adjustments. The adoption of ASU No. 2018-15 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. New standards not yet adopted In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12 , Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes . ASU 2019-12 attempts to simplify aspects of accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates, and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. ASU 2019-12 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within that fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. The Company has evaluated the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements, including accounting policies, processes, and systems, and does not expect the impact to be material. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting . ASU No. 2020-04 provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another rate that is expected to be discontinued. The amendments in this ASU were effective beginning on March 12, 2020, and the Company may elect to apply the amendments prospectively through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently assessing the effect this guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements. |
Earnings per share | Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, reduced for 2018 by the weighted average shares held in escrow that under certain circumstances may have been returned to the Company. Weighted average common shares outstanding include restricted stock unit awards that are no longer subject to forfeiture because the recipients have satisfied either their explicit vesting terms or retirement eligibility requirements. Diluted earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of outstanding stock-settled stock appreciation rights and unvested stock units (under the treasury stock method) and, for 2018, the weighted average contingently returnable shares held in escrow that were outstanding during the period. |
Short-term and long-term investments | Debt securities: The Company's short-term debt investments are principally bank certificates of deposit with contractual maturities longer than three months but shorter than one year. These debt securities are accounted for as held-to-maturity and recorded at amortized cost, which approximated their fair values at December 31, 2020 and 2019. |
Long-term incentive compensation | The Company’s stock-based compensation expense for stock-settled awards is measured at the estimated fair value of awards on the date of grant and recognized on a cumulative straight-line basis over the vesting terms of the awards, unless the stock awards are based on non-market-based performance metrics, in which case expense is adjusted for the ultimate number of shares expected to be issued as of the end of each reporting period. Stock-based compensation expense for cash-settled awards is based on their estimated fair values as of the end of each reporting period. The expense for all LTIP awards is recognized net of expected forfeitures. |
Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income | The reclassification of net cap realized losses into income are recorded as debt expense in the corresponding consolidated statements of income. |
Variable Interest Entities | The Company manages or maintains an ownership interest in certain legal entities subject to the consolidation guidance applicable to variable interest entities (VIEs). Almost all of these legal entities are either U.S. dialysis partnerships encumbered by guaranteed debt, U.S. dialysis limited partnerships, or other legal entities subject to nominee ownership arrangements. Under U.S. GAAP, VIEs typically include entities for which (i) the entity’s equity is not sufficient to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support; (ii) the equity holders as a group lack the power to direct the activities that most significantly influence the entity’s economic performance, the obligation to absorb the entity’s expected losses, or the right to receive the entity’s expected returns; or (iii) the voting rights of some investors are not proportional to their obligations to absorb the entity’s losses. The substantial majority of VIEs the Company is associated with are U.S. dialysis partnerships which the Company manages and in which it maintains a controlling majority ownership interest. These U.S. dialysis partnerships are considered VIEs either because they are (i) encumbered by debt guaranteed proportionately by the partners that is considered necessary to finance the partnership's activities, or (ii) in the form of limited partnerships for which the limited partners are not considered to have substantive kick-out or participating rights. The Company consolidates virtually all such U.S. dialysis partnerships. |
