Subject: Re: $200M more of DVA sold at $120.56
" Have you read the list of things for which Davita has paid money to make go away?

Not sure this list of fines and settlements is perfect nor complete, cribbed from somewhere, but you get the general idea
2012, ~$55 million for double billing
2014, ~$400 million for illegal kickbacks to doctors
2015, ~$550 million for intentionally wasting drugs they were getting compensated for
2017, ~$65 million for unnecessary prescriptions
2018, ~$270 million for inflated Medicare payments
2024, ~$35 million for illegal kickback schemes"


I hear you but few firms are perfect. How high up do the schemes go? Have any brk owned firms done, dirty business? Did Buffett or Charlie know or help to rip anyone off? What percent of rev are those fines?

A family member was born with these issues DVA helped to save his life. He's very healthy today. Another family member was very high up in the Nephcure Foundation, and the money that they have raised to help those impacted. Life is complicated old bud.
