The complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) DaVita and its senior executives purposefully steered patients into needless insurance plans to maximize profits; (2) DaVita was using American Kidney Fund to facilitate these inappropriate practices; (3) therefore DaVita’s revenues and profits were illegally acquired; (4) as a result, DaVita lacked effective internal controls over financial reporting.

On January 6, 2017, the Wall Street Journal published an article revealing that DaVita had received subpoenas from federal prosecutors seeking “the production of information related to charitable premium assistance” in connection with DaVita’s ties to the American Kidney Fund, a charity that helps patients pay for kidney dialysis.

If you suffered a loss in DaVita you have until April 3, 2017 to request that the Court appoint you as lead plaintiff. Your ability to share in any recovery doesn’t require that you serve as a lead plaintiff.
