Davita Code of Conduct 2013 - 12

5. Obligation to Report
It is your duty to maintain the highest level of integrity and accountability by alerting a supervisor,
senior management, Team Quest, JLD or the Compliance Hotline of suspected or actual violation of
DaVita's policies and procedures, applicable laws and regulations, or this Code. We cannot exempt
ourselves from the consequences of our own misconduct by reporting an issue, but self-reporting
may be taken into account when determining appropriate corrective action.
If you fail to report a violation of DaVita policies and procedures, applicable laws or regulations, or
this Code, you may be subject to corrective action, up to and including termination of employment,
to the extent permitted by law. Remaining silent about a violation of DaVita policies and procedures,
applicable laws or regulations, or this Code puts you and DaVita in jeopardy.

6. Non-Retaliation
We are all encouraged to raise issues or concerns in good faith and may do so without fear of
retaliation. DaVita makes every effort to maintain the confidentiality and anonymity of any individual
who reports concerns or possible misconduct. Teammates who retaliate or encourage others to do
so will be subject to corrective action, up to and including termination of employment to the extent
permitted by law. DaVita does not tolerate any form of retaliation against anyone who makes a report in
good faith.
If you feel that you have experienced retaliation, immediately report your concern to a supervisor
who is not involved in the issue, senior management, People Services, Team Quest, JLD or contact
the Compliance Hotline. All allegations of retaliation will be investigated and appropriate steps will
be taken to protect those who report retaliation.
