U.S. dialysis metrics:
Volume: Total U.S. dialysis treatments for the third quarter of 2024 were 7,350,784, or an average of 93,048 treatments per day, representing a per day decrease of (0.1)% compared to the second quarter of 2024. Normalized non-acquired treatment growth in the third quarter of 2024 compared to the third quarter of 2023 was (0.2)%.

Revenue per treatment | $ 394.49 | $ 390.22 | $ 4.27 | $ 389.79 | $ 374.46 | $ 15.33 | |||||
Patient care costs per treatment | $ 257.46 | $ 255.25 | $ 2.21 | $ 255.96 | $ 253.30 | $ 2.66 | |||||
General and administrative | $ 301 | $ 282 | $ 19 | $ 858 | $ 819 | $ 39 |
Primary drivers of the changes in the table above were as follows:
Revenue: The quarter change was primarily due to increases in average reimbursement rates and other normal fluctuations. The year to date change was primarily driven by the increase in average reimbursement rates from normal annual rate increases including from Medicare, as well as revenue cycle improvements, favorable changes in mix and an increase in hospital inpatient dialysis rates.
Patient care costs: The quarter change was primarily due to increased compensation expenses, health benefit expense, and other direct operating expenses associated with our dialysis centers. These increases were partially offset by decreases in insurance costs, travel costs, professional fees and center closure costs. The year to date change was primarily due to increases in compensation expenses, health benefit expense, and medical supplies expense. These increases were partially offset by decreased contributions to charitable organizations, contract wages, and center closure costs.
General and administrative: The quarter change was primarily due to increased advocacy costs, compensation expenses, IT-related costs, travel costs and professional fees. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in center closure costs. The year to date change was primarily due to increases in compensation expenses, advocacy costs, including a refund received in 2023 related to 2022 advocacy costs. Other drivers of this change include increases in IT-related costs, contract wages, center closure costs and professional fees. These increases were partially offset by decreased severance costs and contributions to charitable organizations.
Certain items impacting the quarter:
Closure costs. In the third quarter of 2022, we began a strategic review of our outpatient clinic capacity requirements and utilization, which had been significantly impacted by declines in our patient census due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This review continued through 2023, and has resulted in higher than normal charges for center capacity closures over the last several quarters. These capacity closure costs include net losses on assets retired, lease termination costs, asset impairments and accelerated depreciation and amortization.
During the three months ended and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we incurred charges for U.S. dialysis center closures of approximately $18.3 million and $48.2 million, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2024 these center closures increased our patient care costs by $3.5 million, our general and administrative expenses by $3.8 million and our depreciation and amortization expense by $11.0 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, these center closures increased our patient care costs by $13.3 million, our general and administrative expenses by $19.6 million and our depreciation and amortization expense by $15.3 million.
As previously disclosed, we have updated the presentation of our non-GAAP measures to no longer exclude center closure costs for all periods presented as well as for our current full-year 2024 guidance. To facilitate comparisons, prior periods shown herein now conform to this revised presentation.
Debt transactions. In August 2024, we entered into the Sixth Amendment to our senior secured credit agreement. The Sixth Amendment extends an incremental Term Loan A-1 tranche in the aggregate principal amount of $1,100 million. The Company also issued $1,000 million aggregate principal amount of 6.875% senior notes due 2032. A portion of the net proceeds from these transactions were used to prepay the remainder of the balance outstanding on its Term Loan B-1 maturing in 2026 in the amount of $950 million, the balance outstanding on its revolving line of credit and related accrued interest and fees. The remaining borrowings added cash to the balance sheet for general corporate purposes.
Change Healthcare. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we experienced delays in claims processing as a result of the Change Healthcare outage. As a result, we applied for and received interest-free funding from UnitedHealth Group under the Temporary Funding Assistance Program. As of September 30, 2024 we have $120 million outstanding under this program. Amounts provided under this program are subject to repayment within 45 business days from a future date to be mutually agreed to by Change Healthcare and the Company.
Share repurchases. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, we repurchased 2.7 million shares for $406 million, at an average price paid of $147.20 per share.
Subsequent to September 30, 2024 through October 25, 2024, the Company has repurchased 0.6 million shares of our common stock for $101 million at an average price paid of $160.77 per share.

Center activity: As of September 30, 2024, we provided dialysis services to a total of approximately 265,400 patients at 3,113 outpatient dialysis centers, of which 2,660 centers were located in the United States and 453 centers were located in 13 countries outside of the United States. During the third quarter of 2024, we opened three and closed 15 dialysis centers in the United States. We also acquired one, opened four and closed four dialysis centers outside of the United States during the third quarter of 2024.
Integrated kidney care (IKC): As of September 30, 2024, we had approximately 69,500 patients in risk-based integrated care arrangements representing approximately $5.4 billion in annualized medical spend. We also had an additional 13,900 patients in other integrated care arrangements; we do not include the medical spend for these patients in this annualized medical spend estimate. For an additional description of these metrics, see footnote 4 in the "Supplemental Financial Data" table below.
Outlook:
The following forward-looking measures and the underlying assumptions involve significant known and unknown risks and uncertainties, including those described below, and actual results may vary materially from these forward-looking measures. We do not provide guidance for operating income or diluted net income per share attributable to DaVita Inc. on a basis consistent with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) nor a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because we are unable to predict certain items contained in the GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts. These current non-GAAP financial measures do not include certain items, including gains on changes in ownership interest and foreign currency fluctuations, which may be significant. The guidance for our effective income tax rate on adjusted income attributable to DaVita Inc. also excludes the amount of third-party owners' income and related taxes attributable to non-tax paying entities.
As previously disclosed, our 2024 guidance provided below no longer excludes center closure costs.

Calculation of the Leverage Ratio
Under our amended senior secured credit facilities (the Amended Credit Agreement) dated August 13, 2024 and our prior senior secured credit facilities, the leverage ratio is defined as (a) all funded debt, minus unrestricted cash and cash equivalents (including short-term investments) not to exceed $750 divided by (b) "Consolidated EBITDA." The leverage ratio determines the interest rate margin payable by the Company for its Term Loan A-1 and revolving line of credit under the Amended Credit Agreement by establishing the margin over the base interest rate (SOFR plus credit spread adjustment) that is applicable. The calculation below is based on the last 12 months of "Consolidated EBITDA" and "Consolidated net debt" at the end of each reported period, each as defined in the credit agreement. The calculation of "Consolidated EBITDA" below sets forth, among other things, certain pro forma adjustments described in the Amended Credit Agreement, including pro forma adjustments for acquisitions or divestitures that occurred during the period and certain projected net cost savings, expense reductions and cost synergies. These pro forma adjustments are determined according to specified criteria set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement, and as a result, the total adjustments calculated may not be comparable to the Company's estimates for other purposes, including as operating performance measures. The Company's management believes the presentation of "Consolidated EBITDA" is useful to investors to enhance their understanding of the Company's leverage ratio under the Amended Credit Agreement and should not be evaluated for any other purpose. The leverage ratio calculated by the Company is a non-GAAP measure and should not be considered a substitute for the ratio of total debt to operating income, determined in accordance with GAAP. The Company's calculation of its leverage ratio might not be calculated in the same manner as, and thus might not be comparable to, similarly titled measures of other companies.

RECONCILIATIONS FOR NON-GAAP MEASURES

Note on Non-GAAP Financial Measures
As used in this press release, the term "adjusted" refers to non-GAAP measures as follows, each as reconciled to its most comparable GAAP measure as presented in the non-GAAP reconciliations in the notes to this press release: (i) for income and expense measures, the term "adjusted" refers to operating performance measures that exclude certain items such as, but not limited to, impairment charges, (gain) loss on ownership changes, restructuring charges, accruals for legal matters, and debt extinguishment and modification costs; and (ii) the term "effective income tax rate on adjusted income attributable to DaVita Inc." represents the Company's effective tax rate excluding applicable non-GAAP items and the tax associated with them as well as noncontrolling owners' income, which primarily relates to non-tax paying entities.
In connection with a comment letter from the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff, beginning in the second quarter of 2024, we have updated the presentation of our non-GAAP measures to no longer exclude center closure costs for all periods presented. To facilitate comparisons, the non-GAAP measures presented for prior periods also have been conformed to the presentation of the non-GAAP measures for the current period.
These non-GAAP or "adjusted" measures are presented because management believes these measures are useful adjuncts to GAAP results. However, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered alternatives to the corresponding measures determined under GAAP.
Specifically, management uses adjusted measures of operating expenses for its U.S. dialysis business, adjusted U.S. dialysis patient care costs per treatment, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income attributable to DaVita Inc. and adjusted diluted net income per share attributable to DaVita Inc. to compare and evaluate our performance period over period and relative to competitors, to analyze the underlying trends in our business, to establish operational budgets and forecasts and for incentive compensation purposes. We believe these non-GAAP measures also are useful to investors and analysts in evaluating our performance over time and relative to competitors, as well as in analyzing the underlying trends in our business. Furthermore, we believe these presentations enhance a user's understanding of our normal consolidated results by excluding certain items which we do not believe are indicative of our ordinary results of operations. As a result, adjusting for these amounts allows for comparison to our normalized prior period results.
The effective income tax rate on adjusted income attributable to DaVita Inc. excludes noncontrolling owners' income and certain non-deductible and other charges which we do not believe are indicative of our ordinary results. Accordingly, we believe these adjusted effective income tax rates are useful to management, investors and analysts in evaluating our performance and establishing expectations for income taxes incurred on our ordinary results attributable to DaVita Inc.
Finally, free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities less distributions to noncontrolling interests, development capital expenditures, and maintenance capital expenditures; plus contributions from noncontrolling interests and proceeds from the sale of self-developed properties. Management uses this measure to assess our ability to fund acquisitions and meet our debt service obligations and we believe this measure is equally useful to investors and analysts as an adjunct to cash flows from operating activities and other measures under GAAP.
It is important to bear in mind that these non-GAAP "adjusted" measures are not measures of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation from, nor as substitutes for, their most comparable GAAP measures.

In this instance, among the factors considered were that the claim relates to prior ancillary operations or activities that the Company sold or closed (or otherwise ceased) prior to June 2020, and the charge is significant and may obscure analysis of underlying trends and financial performance of our current business. | ||||
(2) | Represents a non-cash gain recognized on the acquisition of a controlling financial interest in a previously nonconsolidated dialysis partnership. This gain to mark the investment to fair value prior to consolidation does not represent a normal and recurring cost of operating our business or generating revenues and may obscure analysis of underlying trends and financial performance. | ||||
(3) | Includes severance and other termination costs related to a prior strategic restructuring initiative and associated transition of certain general and administrative support functions to a third party. | ||||
(4) | Represents the non-cash write-off of debt refinancing costs associated with the Company's senior secured credit agreement. Costs associated with refinancing the Company's debt are not indicative of normal debt expense and may obscure analysis of underlying trends and financial performance. See additional discussion under "Debt transactions" above. | ||||
(5) | Represents a non-cash gain recognized on rights contributed to Mozarc Medical Holding LLC (Mozarc) upon its formation. This gain to mark these rights to fair value prior to contribution to Mozarc does not represent a normal and recurring cost of operating our business or generating revenues and may obscure analysis of underlying trends and financial performance. | ||||

(7) | Maintenance capital expenditures represent capital expenditures to maintain the productive capacity of the business and include those made for investments in information technology, dialysis center renovations, capital asset replacements, and any other capital expenditures that are not development or acquisition expenditures. | ||||
(8) | Development capital expenditures principally represent capital expenditures (other than acquisition expenditures) made to expand the productive capacity of the business and include those for new U.S. and international dialysis center developments, dialysis center expansions and relocations, and new or expanded contracted hospital operations. |
