Enrolling in Your Benefits Your initial benefits enrollment or Open Enrollment is your once-a-year opportunity to select the benefits that fit your needs. The only time you may make changes outside of that initial enrollment or the annual Open Enrollment period is when you have a qualified life event change. (See “Making Changes During the Year” on page 5). Read your enrollment materials carefully before you log on to enroll. Log into VillageVitality.DaVita.com to view: • Plan descriptions, eligibility rules, and links to Summary Plan Descriptions (SPD’s) • Information and tools to help you select the best options for you and your family
Special Note for New Hires If you are a new hire or newly eligible for benefits in a part-time or full-time position: • Make your benefit elections on the 1st of the month following your date of hire. (Allow an extra 5-7 days for the opening of your enrollment window if you were hired between the 25th and 1st of the month) • Complete your elections at least two weeks prior to your Benefits effective date • Your Benefits will be effective on the first day of the month following two months of continuous employment

Eligibility
Teammates – Full-time, benefit eligible teammates who are regularly scheduled to work at least 32 hours per week and part-time teammates regularly scheduled to work 24-31 hours per week may enroll in DaVita’s health and welfare benefits. For detailed eligibility information, see the chart on page 4. When you enroll online, you will see which benefits are available to you, based on your work status and home ZIP code. New Teammates/Newly Eligible – Newly hired teammates become eligible to participate in the health and welfare benefits program on the first day of the month following two months of continuous employment. If you are a new hire, you are able to enroll on the first of the month following either your date of hire or the date your status changes to a benefit eligible position. If you are a Per Diem teammate and move into a benefits eligible position, your benefits will be effective on the first day of the month following either your status change or 2 months of continuous employment, whichever is greater. Eligible Dependents – If you are eligible for benefits, your dependents may also be eligible, including: • Your legal spouse, common law spouse, or domestic partner (additional documentation will be required). Domestic partners and their children are eligible for medical, dental, vision and voluntary life insurance coverage; however, due to IRS rules, their expenses may not be reimbursed by the Flexible Spending Accounts or Health Savings Account. Teammates and their same-sex or opposite-sex domestic partners need to complete an online Affidavit of Domestic Partnership during enrollment. You will be required to provide proof of commonlaw status. DaVita’s contribution to domestic partner coverage is considered taxable income to you, resulting in additional income tax withholding. This additional taxable amount – called “imputed income” – is shown on your pay stub and reported as “other compensation” on your Form W-2. Internal Revenue Service rules require that you pay for domestic partner coverage on an after-tax basis. • Your dependent children including step and adopted children, a domestic partner’s dependent children, and children whose legal guardianship has been granted to you by the state. Dependent children must be: • Under age 26 •
Over age 26 if incapable of self-support due to mental or physical disability (you will be required to provide proof of disability)
If You and Your Spouse Both Work at DaVita Anyone who is enrolled as a teammate will not be considered as a dependent. No one may be considered as a dependent of more than one teammate.
Domestic Partners Definition A domestic partnership is defined as two people who both meet all the following criteria: n A re at least 18 years of age, unmarried, not related by blood, not prohibited from legal marriage and do not have any other domestic partner, spouse or spouse equivalent. n L ive in a mutually exclusive relationship in which they are financially interdependent on each other. n H ave resided together as a same/opposite gender cohabiting couple for a period of at least one year, intend to do so indefinitely and share the common necessities of life.
Eligibility for any newly enrolled dependents will need to be verified. The Dependent Verification Center will send you a request for supporting documentation once you enroll your dependent(s) online. If verification is not provided within 60 days of the enrollment, coverage for the new dependent(s) will be terminated on the last day of the month following the deadline.
Dependent Verification Documents can be submitted in one of 3 ways: 1. MAIL: Dependent Verification Center 100 Half Day Rd, P.O. Box 1414, Lincolnshire, IL 60069-1414 2. Secure FAX: 1-877-965-9555 3.

Making Changes During the Year Elections for Medical, Dental, Vision, Short-Term Disability, Long-Term Disability, Flexible Spending Accounts and Legal Plan chosen during Open Enrollment remain in effect for the entire calendar year. The only time you can make changes to these benefit elections during the year is if you have a qualified life event change, such as: • Marriage or divorce • Birth or adoption of a child • Death of your spouse or dependent child • Employment status change for you or your spouse • Change in a child’s dependent status • Change in Dependent Care needs, changes to Voluntary, After Tax & Health Savings Account elections • Moving out of or into a Regional Plan area Any time you have a qualified life event change that may affect your benefits, start by going to Village Vitality Benefits (http://VillageVitality.DaVita.com) to begin the change process. All changes must be completed online within 31 days of the qualified life event. Changes become effective on the first of the month following the event effective date, except in case of birth, adoption or death. Newborns and adopted children become eligible for benefits on their date of birth or placement, as long as their enrollment is reported within 31 days of the event. IMPORTANT: Do not wait for the social security card to arrive before enrolling your newborn. You can add the social security number at a later date. Elections for HSA payroll contributions, Charitable Donations, and Voluntary Life/Accidental Death and Dismemberment (AD&D) may be started, stopped, or changed at any time during the year. Teammates are responsible for contributions beginning with the benefit effective date. Please note that your elections are based on the life event changes and must be consistent with the nature of the event. Always check with the Benefits Support Team at 1-800-381-7063, option 3, if you have any questions about a qualified life event change.

Vitality Points DaVita believes strongly in helping teammates avoid serious health conditions through healthy living, prevention and detection. That’s why the Vitality Points program was created, to give teammates the opportunity to learn important information about their health. It’s also when teammates have a chance to lower their DaVita medical insurance premiums for the following year by completing healthy actions. How it works: Each year DaVita sets base premiums for our medical plans. To qualify for the base premium we ask teammates to complete a few healthy actions. When teammates complete their healthy actions they automatically earn Vitality Points, which ensures they receive the base medical premium the following year. You will receive various communications through 2013 regarding the Vitality Points program and the healthy actions you will need to complete to earn 2013 Vitality Points. This chart below illustrates teammate eligibility:
Vitality Points eligibility is based on your previous participation and benefits start date in a DaVita health plan. Participated in both 2012 and 2013

Medical Plan Options Everyone’s medical needs are different. That’s why DaVita offers teammates a choice of plans. All of the Cigna plans offer the flexibility of seeing providers both in and out of the Cigna network; however, you will receive a greater benefit when you use in-network providers. For example, all Cigna plans provide 100% coverage for in-network preventive care.
All Cigna medical plans use the OPEN ACCESS PLUS network. • Cigna Basic PPO or Cigna PPO with Health Reimbursement Plan (HRA) – These plans use a deductible and co-insurance structure and have out-of-pocket maximums. The Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) includes an extensive network and does not require you to select a primary care physician (PCP). You can see an in-network or out-of-network provider; however, if you go to an in-network provider, you will have a lower deductible and higher level of coverage. DaVita helps offset the deductible based on annual salary for the PPO with HRA plan. • Cigna High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) with Health Savings Account (HSA) – This plan offers lower bi-weekly premiums by using a higher deductible and out-of-pocket maximum. DaVita helps offset the higher deductible by contributing money to an HSA on your behalf. Please see pages 13-15 for more detailed information on the HDHP and HSA. • Regional Plans (Kaiser, BCBS AL, Empire HMO, GHP) – Depending on where you live, you may have access to a regional plan. In our Regional plans, only visits to providers within the network are covered. All visits, prescriptions, referrals and other care must be approved by the plan in order to be covered. • When you enroll online, you will see which benefits are available to you based on your work status and home ZIP code.

Choosing the Medical Plan that is Right for You There’s a lot to consider when deciding which 2013 medical plan is right for you and your family. You will want to compare plan costs and think through your specific needs before making your selection.

How Do My Total Medical Costs Add Up? The chart on the right illustrates what we like to call our “Total Medical Cost” equation. The top half of the equation includes the out-of-pocket costs you pay and some pre-tax opportunities you can take advantage of to lower your costs. The bottom half of the equation focuses on contributions DaVita makes to help reduce your out-of-pocket costs.
Bi-weekly Premiums Prescriptions
Teammates can contribute pre-tax dollars to Healthcare Flexible Spending Account (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA) How DaVita Helps (based on eligibility)

DaVita’s contribution to your Health Reimbursement Account (for PPO w/HRA participants with salary under $50,000)

Total Medical Cost
Keep in mind… • Paying less in premium contributions but more when you actually use care may reduce your overall medical cost. • Paying more in premium contributions may mean you have more predictable medical costs throughout the year. • The Critical Illness Benefit can increase your comfort level with the unknown (see page 13). • You can pay most premium contributions using pre-tax dollars, saving you money in taxes each year. • You save more in taxes when paying for health care expenses using the Health Care Flexible Spending Account and/or Health Savings Account. (HSA participation is limited to teammates enrolled in the HDHP.)
How Does a PPO Work? (A) First…You must meet your deductible
…the annual amount you have to pay before most benefits can be paid by the plan.
(B) Once you’ve met your deductible, you pay coinsurance
…benefits kick in and you pay coinsurance (you pay 20% of your bill, the insurance company pays the remaining 80%).
(C) Until you meet the out-of-pocket maximum

• Oral Allergy Medications are excluded. • Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs) are available at 100% teammate responsibility (Cigna discounts will be applied). • Step Therapy is a prior authorization program to ensure that teammates are being treated with therapeutically appropriate medications that are also the most cost effective. If you fill a prescription that has a more cost effective and therapeutic equivalent, you and your provider will receive a letter explaining one of two options for your next fill. 1. Try a lower cost alternative 2. Have your provider request authorization from Cigna to continue on your current medication due to medical necessity Teammates can see if their prescription is included in the Step Therapy program by visiting www.cigna.com. Click on the Prescription Drug List and enter the name of your medication. An “ST” designation will appear if your medication is included.
How do I fill my Prescriptions? Less than 4 fills: Teammates should use a Cigna contracted retail pharmacy for any prescriptions that are needed for a short period of time, like antibiotics, or medications for an acute condition. Contracted Pharmacies can be found on www.cigna.com.
4 or more fills: Teammates need to use the Cigna Home Delivery Pharmacy when purchasing prescriptions that would be taken for an extended period of time (4 or more refills). These are referred to as Maintenance Medications. Maintenance medications are typically prescribed for continuing periods, for a chronic condition or one that may take a long time to stabilize.
Pay for Rx with a Flexible Spending Account (FSA) The Health Care FSA can be the perfect tool to pay for maintenance medications in automatic, predictable amounts throughout the year. (Remember: If you’re in the HDHP, use your HSA instead.) You receive a debit card to simplify your purchases. Plus, your total annual contribution amount is available for use on January 1st. Be sure to plan your FSA contributions carefully. The IRS requires that you forfeit any unused dollars in your FSA accounts at the end of each calendar year.
Examples of Maintenance Medications include: n High Cholesterol n Diabetes n High Blood Pressure n Heart Disease n Asthma n Arthritis n Birth Control n Blood Thinner n Osteoporosis n Prenatal Mail order is not required for medications that require less than 4 fills or certain controlled substances. You always have the option of getting generic medications, outside the Cigna plans, directly from your local discount pharmacy at full cost to you.
Questions about the Cigna Home Delivery Pharmacy or maintenance drugs? Call 800-TEL-DRUG (800-835-3784), select option 4. You can order new prescriptions, refill existing prescriptions, or transfer prescriptions by using www. myCigna.com. 12
Critical Illness Insurance Are you concerned that an unexpected health issue might be more than your finances could handle? Eligibility for this benefit includes having medical coverage, but does not have to be with DaVita. Metlife will verify coverage at the time a claim is submitted. If you or a covered dependent develops a critical illness, this innovative option helps you cover the plan’s out-of-pocket maximums. MetLife Critical Illness Insurance provides you with a lump-sum cash payment if you or your covered dependent is diagnosed with certain cancer-related conditions, heart-related conditions or other conditions (such as a major organ transplant or kidney failure).
Paying for Critical Illness Insurance, for example… Teammate profile = age 35, with spouse and two children Premium contribution per paycheck = $3.83
Pre-existing condition exclusions may apply to your coverage. Each covered person is eligible for payout of up to $10,000 per condition. Have more questions? Call 800 GET-MET 8 (800-438-6388), Monday through Friday, 8am – 6pm EST/5am – 3pm PST, to speak with a MetLife Customer Service Representative.
How the High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) Works The Cigna HDHP, coupled with an interest-bearing Health Savings Account (HSA), gives you an alternative medical plan that provides you more control over how your health care dollars are spent. For more information, review the Health Savings Account brochure found under the 2013 Benefits > Cigna HDHP W/ HSA at VillageVitality.DaVita.com. Keep in mind: • Anyone covered underage 65 and covered under Medicare is not eligible to contribute to an HSA.. • If you are covered under the Cigna HDHP and are covered by another health plan (unless it is also an HDHP), you cannot contribute to an HSA. For example, if you are covered under a spouse’s medical plan, you can only contribute to an HSA if that medical plan is an HDHP. • If you are covered under the HDHP, you can contribute to an HSA on a tax-free basis, and then you and your covered dependents can use the HSA to pay for qualified medical expenses. Once your deductible has been met, the plan pays for 80% of network medical expenses and 50% of reasonable and customary charges for out-of-network medical expenses. • Prescriptions are not covered if filled at an out-of-network pharmacy.
Over 300 FREE Generic Preventive Medications for High Deductible Participants!
• Even before the HDHP deductible is met, in-network preventive care is covered at 100% and you’ll never pay more than the plan’s out-of-pocket maximum for covered medical expenses. The out-of-pocket maximum puts a limit on the total amount participants have to pay for health care coverage. It is important to remember that this amount includes the deductible and prescription costs.
Example Preventive Medication/Conditions:
• HSA funds cannot be used for medical expenses incurred by a domestic partner or a domestic partner’s children.
n Cholesterol
• If you are enrolled in HDHP with an HSA and you have elected healthcare FSA money for the year, your FSA money is limited to Dental and Vision expenses only until your Medical deductible has been met.
n Osteoporosis
n Asthma n Blood Pressure n Blood Thinner n Diabetes n Prenatal
13
Using a Health Savings Account (HSA) To help you decide if the High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) with a Health Savings Account (HSA) is right for you, review this list of HSA features: • An HSA is available only if you are in an HDHP and not covered by any non-HSA-eligible medical plan or Medicare. • You can fund your HSA with pretax savings taken directly from your paychecks. You can also fund your HSA through personal, after-tax deposits. • Unused amounts automatically roll over for use in following years. • HSAs are portable from employer to employer; you can use up your balance for eligible expenses. You can even continue contributing as long as you are in another HDHP plan. • Contributions are securely held in trust for your use and they can grow through simple interest or investment income (over $2,000). • Money in your HSA can be used to pay for the same health care expenses that are allowed under a Flexible Health Care Spending Account. • Money in your HSA can also be used to pay premiums for individual long-term care insurance policies, COBRA insurance coverages, health plan coverage while receiving unemployment insurance and, if age 65+, any health insurance except Medicare Supplement (A-J), known as Medigap coverage. • Medical expenses incurred by a domestic partner or a domestic partner’s children are not eligible for reimbursement from an HSA. • HSA funds cannot be used for expenses incurred prior to opening your HSA account.
Get Money When Electing the HDHP An HDHP may seem challenging at first, but for many teammates the HDHP, when accompanied by an HSA, can greatly reduce your out-of-pocket costs. HDHP advantages include: n L ower premium contributions n S ignificant potential outof-pocket savings (can be $1,000s, depending on usage) n D aVita gives you money for your Health Savings Account (HSA) Note: You may use your HSA funds for over-the-counter drugs only if you have a prescription.
HSA Auto Enrollment When you enroll in the HDHP, you will be automatically enrolled in an HSA with J.P. Morgan Chase. You may increase or decrease your payroll deductions at any time during the year by going to Village Vitality Benefits: > Click Enroll Online at the top left side of the screen > Click on Start Enrollment • Verify your personal information and click Continue • Change your HSA payroll contributions DaVita makes an annual, up-front contribution to the HSAs for HDHP participants. Depending on your coverage level, DaVita will contribute the following to your HSA: Teammate only: $600
Teammate + One or Child(ren): $900
Family: $1,200
Contribution amounts are pro-rated based on benefit effective date Once your account has been established, you will receive a welcome kit in the mail from JP Morgan Chase, which will include a debit card that you can use to pay for qualified medical expenses and additional details about your HSA. HSA balances above $2,000 earn interest. Once your HSA account balance reaches $2,000, you can transfer some of your funds to an HSA investment account.
Visit http://VillageVitality.DaVita.com > 2013 Benefits>Access YSA>Manage Account>Take Action section, then in drop down box select “Access to Your Spending Account” > Manage your Account > Take Action section for a complete list of eligible FSA & HSA health care expenses.
Note: DaVita does not make contributions to Domestic Partners and their children because their expenses are not considered “eligible” under Federal regulations. 14
How HSAs and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) Work Together If you enroll in the HDHP, you may not contribute to a traditional health care FSA. However, you may contribute to a Limited Healthcare FSA for expenses not covered by your medical plan, like vision and dental expenses. You might want to consider contributing money to the Limited Healthcare FSA if you know you are going to have large dental or vision expenses during the year. Once you have reached your deductible under the HDHP plan, your Limited Healthcare FSA will no longer be “limited” from that point forward. All expenses eligible under a traditional FSA will be eligible for reimbursement from your FSA.

Flexible Spending Accounts Contributing to a Flexible Spending Account (FSA) allows you to pay for certain out-of-pocket health care and dependent day care expenses with tax-free dollars. You can choose to contribute to the Healthcare Spending Account, the Dependent Care Spending Account, or both through payroll deduction. Participation is voluntary. Your Healthcare Flexible Spending Account Options
Your Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account Options
Contribute $130 – $2,500 per plan year OR Waive participation
Contribute $130 – $5,000 per plan year (within IRS limits) OR Waive participation
Healthcare Flexible Spending Account You may use this account to pay for: Deductibles, co-insurance and co-payments for the medical, dental, and vision plans Prescription drug co-payments for both retail and mail order fills Over-the-counter drugs for which you have a prescription Expenses for eye exams, glasses and contacts in excess of vision plan benefits Hearing exams and hearing aids Orthodontic services not covered by dental plan benefits Expenses that exceed medical or dental plan limits
Paying for 2012 Healthcare expenses with your Healthcare Flexible Spending (FSA) Account in 2013 You may be billed in 2013 for Healthcare eligible expenses you incurred in 2012. Be careful! Do NOT use your new 2013 Healthcare Flexible Spending (FSA) debit card to pay for 2012 charges. You must file a paper claim for reimbursement of the 2012 expense. If you accidentally use your 2013 debit card for 2012 charges, you are improperly using 2013 FSA dollars and the 2012 dollars you have set aside to reimburse your 2012 expenses may go unused and risk forfeiture.
When you have a qualified expense, you can file for reimbursement from YSA (Your Spending Account) by submitting your receipt and a claim form. You can also pay for qualified health care expenses with your FSA Debit Card. No tax is ever paid on the money deposited or withdrawn from the account(s). Visit VillageVitality.DaVita.com > 2013 Benefits>Access YSA > Manage your Account > Take Action section > check eligible expenses. Important note if you elect the HDHP: You will pay for many of your health-care expenses with your Health Savings Account. If you choose the HDHP with HSA for your medical plan coverage and you also elect a Health Care FSA, that FSA account will be limited to use for dental and vision expenses only until your HDHP deductible is met.
Use It or Lose It… You need to plan your contributions to the spending accounts carefully and deposit only the money you expect to use. The IRS requires that you forfeit any unused dollars in your FSA accounts at the end of each calendar year.
Dependent Care Spending Account You may use this plan to pay for: Child or adult day care that complies with state and local regulations Baby-sitting during the day, either inside or outside your home Housekeeper whose duties include dependent care Preschool Day camp Care for an elderly or disabled dependent who spends at least eight hours each day in your home Payment to a relative who cares for dependents if the relative is age 19 or older and not your dependent for income tax purposes You cannot pay for dependent day care expenses with the Healthcare Flexible Spending Account and vice versa.
16
IRS Rules and Tax Considerations for FSAs • If you are married and file separate income tax returns, you may deposit up to $2,500. • You cannot pay for health care expenses with the Dependent Day Care Spending Account and vice versa. • You cannot use the Health Care Spending Account to pay for insurance premiums. • All claims must be incurred while actively employed by DaVita during the current calendar year. You have until March 31 of the following year to file for reimbursement. After that, you will forfeit any money left in your accounts. • You may not claim health-care expenses for which you have been reimbursed on your income tax returns.
Be sure to Check out the Decision Tools at Village Vitality Benefits Health Care Flexible Spending account Estimator can help you estimate how much you should contribute to your health care and dependent day care accounts and what kind of tax savings you can expect.
• You may use the Federal Dependent Care tax credit instead of the Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account. Make sure you use the one that will save you more money. In general, if your adjusted gross income is more than $40,000, you will save more by using the FSA plan.
Health Care Reform Health Savings and Flexible Spending Accounts As a result of Health Care Reform rules, previously eligible over-the-counter (OTC) medications such as Tylenol, Motrin, Claritin and Benadryl, are no longer eligible for reimbursement through health care expense accounts unless prescribed by a physician.
Examples OTC eligible only with a prescription
OTC eligible without a prescription
Aspirin/Ibuprofen/Naproxen
Bandages
Allergy & Sinus
Contact solution
Sleep aids
Blood sugar test kits/strips

Dental Plan Options
Work in Progress?
The dental plan options provide complete dental care services for yourself and your family, under two different types of plans. DHMO (Cigna or Aetna) – You must designate a primary care dentist, either through the enrollment process or by calling Cigna or Aetna directly. Your primary care dentist must be designated prior to receiving services, in order for the visit to be covered. All visits to a specialist must have a referral. You must seek services from a designated in-network dentist in order to receive benefits. There is an I.D. card for this plan (both Cigna and Aetna).
If you are already receiving orthodontia or other ongoing dental care and are considering new coverage under a DaVita dental plan, contact Aetna or Cigna for details about your new benefit coverage and any pre-existing condition questions.
Cigna DPO – Gives you the option of going to an in-network or out-of-network provider. However, if you go to an in-network provider, you will have a lower deductible and higher level of coverage. There is no I.D. card issued for this plan. For a list of dentists who participate in the Cigna DMO or DPO core networks, go to the Cigna provider directory at www.cigna.com or call 1-855-BE-WELL-1. The Aetna DMO provider directory is located at www.aetna.com or call 1-877-238-6200.

Disability Coverage Short-Term Disability DaVita provides Basic Short-Term Disability (STD) benefits at no cost for all full time teammates. This benefit provides income protection for up to 26 weeks with an approved claim, if you are unable to work due to your own extended, non-work-related illness, injury or pregnancy for more than seven calendar days. If you become eligible for a Basic STD benefit, you receive 60% of your base pay, to a maximum benefit of $1,000 per week. When you are first eligible to enroll, and each year during Open Enrollment, you can enhance your Basic STD coverage by electing Supplemental STD coverage that increases your benefit to 75% of your base pay, to a maximum benefit of $1,000 per week. Your cost for Supplemental STD is shown when you make your election decisions at Village Vitality Benefits, VillageVitality.DaVita.com. Your Basic and Supplemental STD payments are coordinated with state, Social Security and any other group disability payments you receive. Pre-existing condition exclusions apply to your coverage. DaVita pays for your Basic STD coverage on a pre-tax basis, so any benefit you may receive from the plan will be considered taxable income to you. You pay for the Supplemental portion of the benefit on an after-tax basis, so any Supplemental STD benefit you may receive from the plan will be tax-free, subject to IRS rules and regulations. No EOI required. Pre-existing conditions may apply. Keep in mind: The annual Paid Time Off (PTO) accrual for full-time teammates includes hours for five sick days. The first five work days of an absence (up to 40 hours max based on your scheduled weekly hours) during the first week of a qualified disability will be counted as sick days covered by the PTO plan. Once PTO is used up, these days will be without pay. If you are unable to work due to your own non-work-related illness, injury or pregnancy for more than seven calendar days, you may become eligible for a Basic STD benefit.
Long-Term Disability - Auto Enrollment, Must Opt-Out DaVita automatically enrolls full-time teammates into Basic Long-Term Disability (LTD) benefits. This benefit provides income protection if you are unable to work due to your own extended, non-work-related illness, injury or pregnancy for more than 26 weeks. If you become eligible for a basic LTD benefit, you receive 50% of your base pay, to a maximum benefit of $10,000 per month. Teammates pay 25% of the cost for this coverage. DaVita pays the rest. You have the opportunity to opt out of this coverage. When you are first eligible to enroll, and each year during Open Enrollment, you can enhance your Basic LTD coverage by electing Supplemental LTD coverage that increases your benefit to 60% of your base pay, to a maximum benefit of $10,000 per month. Pre-existing conditions apply. Your cost for Supplemental LTD is shown when you make your election decisions at Village Vitality Benefits, VillageVitality.DaVita.com. Pre-existing condition exclusions may apply to your coverage. Your Basic and Supplemental LTD payments are coordinated with state, Social Security and any other group disability payments you receive. Pre-existing condition exclusions may apply to your coverage.

Saving for Retirement It is important to prepare for your future by saving for your retirement. By offering a 401(k) Plan and an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP), DaVita helps you save for retirement through payroll deductions.
401(k) Auto Enroll The 401(k) auto enrollment program helps you save for retirement by auto-enrolling you at an initial 3% deferral rate taken from your paycheck. However, you have the option to: • Select a deferral percentage between 1-50%. • Completely opt-out within the first 45 days of employment before any deductions are taken from your paycheck. • Change your mind once deductions of 3% have begun within 90 days following your first paycheck contribution. Your contributions will be returned to you with any market gains or losses. • Stop deductions at any point after your initial 90 days of contributing. Deductions will cease, but any previous contributions will remain in your 401(k) account. • Information about DaVita’s Retirements Savings Plan and Auto Enrollment will be sent to your home shortly after you start with DaVita. 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan offers a convenient, tax-efficient way to save for your retirement. Some advantages to participating in the plan include:
For questions about your 401(k) account, please contact T. Rowe Price at 1-800-922-9945 from 7:00 a.m. – 10:00 p.m. Eastern Time.

New hires will receive enrollment information at their home address from T. Rowe Price (the plan administrator) shortly after their date of hire. • Tax deferral: You don’t pay taxes on the money you put into a 401(k) plan or on any investment earnings, until you withdraw it (penalties may apply if you take an early withdrawal). • You may contribute from 1% to 50% of your earnings into your 401(k) through pretax payroll deduction (from 1% to 20% of your earnings if you are considered highly compensated). Contributions are subject to IRS limits. • Full range of investment options: You have several investment choices, including DaVita company stock. • Flexible account management: Change your investment allocations, deferral percentage, and transfer funds among investment options 24 hours a day, seven days a week. • Access to loans and certain withdrawals in case of severe financial hardship. • Online information, education and retirement planning tools: T. Rowe Price (the plan administrator) offers many online tools to help you learn about investing and planning for retirement.

Triple Crown Profit Sharing Program The Triple Crown Profit Sharing program is a unique way we demonstrate our belief that sharing success with our teammates is important.
Triple Crown is…
Triple Crown is a profit sharing program that rewards teammates for the contributions they make to the success of the Village. It is an important part of the benefits DaVita offers teammates. • It gives teammates multiple opportunities to earn awards.
Why Triple Crown is a unique approach to Profit Sharing
• It gives teammates flexibility; they can choose a cash award or add their award to their 401(k) retirement savings plan. • We don’t know of any of our competitors who offer this type of opportunity and flexibility. There are three ways for teammates to earn awards:
How teammates earn awards
1. Village Award: Teammates share in the success of the Village when DaVita meets its financial and clinical goals. 2. Victory Award: Teammates can earn awards when facility, department and clinical goals are met. 3. Value Award: Teammates can earn an award for demonstrating DaVita’s core values at work.

Frequently Asked Questions Medical Benefits Deductibles and Out-of-Pocket Maximums 1. If I enroll in the PPO with HRA or High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) plan and my salary would fluctuate mid year, would there be any impact on the HRA or HSA funding? No. If you are newly eligible for benefits during the year, your deductible will be based on your salary on the date you gain eligibility. It will not fluctuate throughout the year if pay changes.
Prescriptions 2. Why is it mandatory to get my maintenance drugs through Cigna mail order? Using the mail order home delivery pharmacy is essential because it helps us better manage the Village’s Rx dollars and, just as importantly, it ensures that you get your prescription refills on time. If you have any problems filling a maintenance prescription, contact Tel-Drug at 800-285-4812 or the Benefit Support Team. (Note: You still have the option of getting generic drugs, outside the Cigna plans, directly from your local discount pharmacy at full cost to you.)
Pretax Savings Accounts 3. Will DaVita make another contribution to my Health Savings Account (HSA) for 2013 if I am currently enrolled in the HDHP plan for 2014? Yes. DaVita makes an annual contribution for every teammate who elects the HDHP for the year. These annual contributions will be pro-rated based on your benefits effective date.
4. Will DaVita make a contribution to my Health Reimbursement Account (HRA) each new plan year? Yes, up to the annual deductible and if annual salary is <$50,000.

Frequently Asked Questions (con’t) 5. Will my Flexible Spending Account elections carry over to the next year if I do not want to make any changes? No. You must make new elections for Flexible Spending Accounts.
6. Will my Health Savings Account elections carry over to the next year if I do not want to make any changes? Yes. The annual goal amount can be changed at any time throughout the year.
7. I was surprised the Health Care Flexible Spending Account allows me to use my entire annual contribution on January 1, even before the money is in my account. Why is that? IRS rules allow this to help encourage participation and to help offset the use-or-lose-it rule you face at the end of the year.

Enrollment 8. What if I have health insurance through my spouse’s employer? Do I still need to make elections? Yes. You may need to make your other 2013 benefit elections, such as for STD, LTD and the flexible spending accounts.
Other Benefits 9. How do I apply for DaVita Village Network assistance? Information about the DVN can be found on the DaVita intranet, under DaVita GPS/Grants and Teammate Assistance.

Health Care Dictionary Below are a few of the key terms used throughout the health care section of this guide and their definitions. Annual Deductible is the amount of money you pay out-of-pocket each year before your plan starts paying benefits. Co-insurance is the percentage of the cost of health care services you pay, up to the annual outof-pocket maximum. Co-payment is the set dollar amount you pay for certain health care services or prescriptions. EAP (Employee Assistance Program) provides assessment, referral or counseling to help make you happier, healthier and more productive. The EAP is paid for by DaVita and is available to all teammates, their dependents and household members. FSA (Flexible Spending Account) contributions allow you to pay for certain out-of-pocket health care and dependent day care expenses with tax-free dollars. HA (Health Assessment) is a confidential health care questionnaire available through Cigna or other health plans.
Alphabet Soup AD&D - Accidental Death & Dismemberment FSA - Flexible Spending Account HA - Health Assessment HDHP - High Deductible Health Plan HMO - Health Maintenance Organization
HDHP (High Deductible Health Plan) offers lower bi-weekly premium contributions, but a higher deductible and out-of-pocket maximum. DaVita helps offset the higher deductible by contributing money to a Health Savings Account (HSA) on your behalf.
HSA - Health Savings Account
HMO (Health Maintenance Organization) provides care for a flat monthly rate and co-payment, with no deductibles. However, only visits to providers within the HMO network are covered. All visits, prescriptions, referrals and other care must be approved by the HMO in order to be covered.
LTD - Long-Term Disability
HSA (Health Savings Account) contributions are allowed when participating in a High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP). Money in your HSA can be used to pay for the same health care expenses that are allowed under a flexible health care spending account.
HRA - Health Reimbursement Account OOP - Out-of-Pocket PPO - Preferred Provider Organization STD - Short-Term Disability
HRA (Health Reimbursement Account) provides a health care plan with a health reimbursement account funded by DaVita when participating in the PPO with HRA plan to help pay for some of the costs of eligible heath care expenses. In-Network means receiving care from a provider who has contracted with a health plan to deliver care at a discounted fee. Maintenance Drugs are typically prescribed for continuing periods, for a chronic condition or one that may take a long time to stabilize. OAP (Open Access Plus) Network is a national network of physicians and facilities contracted to provide services under DaVita’s Cigna medical plans. Out-of-Network means receiving care from a provider who has not contracted with the health plan to provide services at a discounted fee. OOP (Out-of-Pocket) Maximum is the most you’ll play for eligible medical expenses during the year, typically in addition to co-pays and deductibles unless you are enrolled in the High Deductible plan). Once you reach this limit, the plan will cover most eligible services at 100%. PCP (Primary Care Physician) is a doctor who practices in the field of family medicine, general practice, internal medicine and pediatrics. PPO (Preferred Provider Organization) uses a deductible and coinsurance structure, with an extensive network, and does not require you to select a PCP. If you go to an in-network provider, you will have a lower deductible and higher level of coverage. Specialists are doctors who practice in any field of medicine other than those listed under primary care physician.
