Dialysis Outpatient Revenue Mix measures the share of U.S. dialysis revenue generated by outpatient centers and related laboratory services.

DaVita reported 76% of U.S. dialysis revenue from outpatient services in 2025.

The three care-setting shares reconcile to 100%

Home-based services represented 18% and hospital inpatient services 6%.

Adding 76%, 18%, and 6% gives 100% of U.S. dialysis revenue across the disclosed settings.

Outpatient revenue was more than three times the other settings combined

Home and inpatient revenue together represented 24%.

The 76% outpatient share was about 3.17 times that combined non-outpatient share.

Use Dialysis Home-Based Revenue Mix and Dialysis Hospital Inpatient Revenue Mix to preserve the full setting mix.

Revenue mix is not treatment mix

Different reimbursement levels and treatment characteristics mean care-setting revenue shares should not be treated as treatment-volume shares.

Treatment volume, patient base, and network footprint
Treatment volume, average daily treatments, treatment days, patient count, outpatient centers, hospital service contracts, market share, and normalized non-acquired growth show the operating scale and underlying demand base. Center count and patient count are point-in-time measures, while treatments are period activity.

Cost, collections, and segment profitability
Patient care cost per treatment frames direct operating cost, days sales outstanding shows collections efficiency, and segment operating income shows the resulting GAAP segment contribution after the issuer's reported expense structure.
