Dialysis U.S. Market Share measures DaVita's estimated share of the U.S. dialysis market based on patients served.

DaVita reported approximately 36% by patients served in its 2025 disclosures.

The share and DaVita patient count imply about 557,000 U.S. dialysis patients

DaVita reported approximately 200,500 U.S. patients.

Dividing 200,500 by 36% gives an implied market of roughly 557,000 patients.

DaVita's center network served about 75 patients per center

The company operated 2,657 U.S. outpatient centers.

Dividing 200,500 patients by 2,657 centers gives about 75 patients per center as a network-density check.

Use Dialysis Outpatient Center Count for the physical footprint.

Market share depends on the issuer's denominator

DaVita's approximately 36% estimate is based on patients served, not revenue, treatments, or center count.

Different market definitions can produce different shares.
