Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract]

Prior to our acquisition of KAH in August 2021, we accounted for our 40% investment in KAH using the equity method of accounting. Our share of income or loss was reported as equity in net (losses) earnings in our consolidated statements of income.

We completed the sale of a 60% interest in Gentiva Hospice on August 11, 2022 and we account for our remaining minority ownership in Gentiva Hospice using the equity method of accounting. At December 31, 2023 and 2022 we owned 35% and 40%, respectively. This investment was reflected in equity method investments in our December 31, 2023 and 2022 consolidated balance sheets, with our share of income or loss reported as equity in net (losses) earnings in our consolidated statements of income.

The summarized balance sheets and statements of income at December 31, 2023 and 2022 of Gentiva Hospice were as follows:

Other equity method investments

In 2020, our Primary Care Organization entered into a strategic partnership with Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe, or WCAS, to accelerate the expansion of our primary care model. In May 2022, we established a second strategic partnership with WCAS to develop additional centers between 2023 and 2025. As of December 31, 2023, there were 108 primary care clinics operating under the partnership and we have capacity to open or acquire up to approximately 60 additional centers through the existing partnership agreements. In addition, the agreements include a series of put and call options through which WCAS may require us to purchase their interest in the entity, and through which we may acquire WCAS’s interest, over the next 2 to 9 years. We have the option to purchase the first cohort of clinics in 2025 for approximately $550 million to $650 million based on current projections. All existing cohorts can be called by us from 2025 to 2030 and could require $2.0 billion to $3.0 billion based on current projections. These estimates are dependent on multiple factors including the actual timing of when the put or call options are exercised, expected revenue growth at each center within the respective cohort and future capital contributions, among other factors. For additional information on inputs relevant to these put and call options, refer to Note 6 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of this Form 10-K.

We have several individually immaterial equity method investments, including our strategic partnership with WCAS as described above, included within equity method investments in our consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 with our share of income or loss reported as equity in net (losses) earnings in our consolidated statements of income for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021.
