US government commits $2.6 billion to DaVita for national dialysis

The US government has awarded DaVita Inc. a $2.6 billion contract for national dialysis services. This means DaVita will continue to provide critical kidney care to government-covered patients across the country.

This contract ensures that a major provider continues to deliver existing, essential medical services. It does not change how dialysis is delivered, priced, or regulated. The government is simply buying a necessary service at scale.
