DaVita Inc.

DaVita operates dialysis clinics, primarily in the US, treating patients with kidney failure who need regular blood-cleaning treatments to survive. It runs over 3,200 facilities and serves roughly 300,000 patients per year.

Revenue comes from insurance reimbursements — about two-thirds from Medicare/Medicaid at regulated rates, and the rest from commercial insurers. The economics are lopsided: commercial insurance patients are only ~10% of the patient base but generate nearly all the US dialysis profits, since government reimbursement rates are much lower.
