Patients Our P3 Care Model of partnering with local physicians allows patients to maintain their relationship with their existing physicians. We believe this is key to delivering stronger clinical outcomes and support for our patients. Our model deploys care teams for each individual patient to assist in the continuity and coordination of care.
Added
As we grow our network, we conduct periodic strategic reviews of our provider and payor contracts, as a result of which we may elect to periodically exit underperforming provider and payor contracts in an effort to rationalize our network costs. Additional membership through current relationships.
Removed
This support allows for seamless interactions across multiple physicians and various care settings. Connectivity reduces the risk of unnecessary progression of disease or downstream care, which is evident in our results. Physicians We believe our model supports and empowers physicians, care teams, and practices in their transition from a traditional FFS model to a VBC model.
Added
We are constantly evaluating our pipeline of opportunities to continue growing our membership. Based on our analysis and experience to date, we have identified a list of target markets that we believe are ideal candidates for the P3 Care Model, whether across physicians or payors.
Removed
Importantly, we enable physicians to implement VBC protocols while maintaining their independence. Additionally, our P3 Care Model leverages an innovative technology suite that provides physicians with the tools to drive better clinical outcomes.
Added
Failure to meet the requirements of an applicable AKS safe harbor, however, does not render an arrangement illegal.
Removed
Enabling physicians to own much of this process also allows for improved personal satisfaction on their journey to VBC, resulting in our 98% physician retention rate from 2018 through December 31, 2023 on our network of approximately 2,750 physicians as of December 31, 2023. Payors Our model is differentiated in our ability to also partner directly with payors.
Added
We therefore expect to see higher levels of per member medical costs in the first and fourth quarters. See Part II, Item 7.
Removed
We have a proven ability to manage medical costs and improve clinical outcomes of our lives under management on behalf of our payor partners. This is evidenced by the receipt of inbound partnership requests from payors to improve growth, quality and profitability in their markets.
Removed
We believe there is a significant and growing demand from payors as they capitate risk and transition to VBC. Competitive Differentiation Broad delegated care model Under our at-risk model, we are financially responsible for the medical costs associated with our attributed patients across the care continuum.
Removed
Our broad delegated care model enables us to better manage and control critical aspects of care beyond the PCP office.
Removed
By taking on additional, delegated services from our payor partners, including networking, credentialing, utilization management and claims processing, we can better control care delivery, align incentives across the care continuum, and ensure that quality care is delivered and paid for in the appropriate care setting.
Removed
Rapidly scalable, capital efficient model We have demonstrated the rapid scalability of our model with organic average annual revenue growth of 84% from 2018 to 2023. This is in part due to the capital efficiency of our affiliate model and in part due to our ability to grow through multiple channels.
Removed
Because we primarily partner with physicians and physician groups or payors, we do not need to build brick and mortar clinics or acquire practices to enter a new market; therefore, we require less upfront capital to enter a market and can take the time to establish a market presence and build patient recognition and familiarity as well as other relationships before investing significant funds.
Removed
While many of our competitors employ the buy / build or joint-venture partnership model, our approach has a minimal “ramp-up” period and thus a faster expected near-term path to profitability. Furthermore, our ability to effectively leverage existing physician bases across the U.S. accelerates our speed to scale.

Item 1A. Risk Factors ” and elsewhere in this Form 10-K. Our historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any periods in the future. Overview P3 is a patient-centered and physician-led population health management company. We strive to offer superior care to all those in need.
Added
Item 1A. Risk Factors. Our business involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below, together with all of the other information in this Form 10-K. The occurrence of any of the events described below could harm our business, operating results, financial condition, liquidity, or prospects.
Removed
We believe that the misaligned incentives in the FFS healthcare payment model and the fragmentation between physicians and care teams has led to sub-optimal clinical outcomes, limited access, high spending and unnecessary variability in the quality of care.
Added
In any such event, the market price of our Class A common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. This Form 10-K also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.
Removed
We believe that a platform such as ours, which helps to realign incentives and focuses on treating the full patient, is uniquely positioned to address these healthcare challenges.
Added
See “ Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements .” Our actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain important factors, including those set forth below.
Removed
We have leveraged the expertise of our management team’s more than 20 years of experience in population health management, to build our “P3 Care Model.” The key attributes that differentiate P3 include: 1) patient-focused model, 2) physician-led model, and 3) our broad delegated model.
Added
Risks Related to Our Business and Financial Results Our management has performed an analysis of our ability to continue as a going concern and has identified substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Removed
Our model operates by entering into arrangements with payors providing for monthly payments to manage the total healthcare needs of members attributed to our primary care physicians. In tandem, we enter into arrangements directly with existing physician groups or independent physicians in the community to join our VBC network.
Added
As of December 31, 2024, we had $38.8 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents available to fund future operations, $154.8 million of outstanding indebtedness, of which $65.0 million is classified as current on our balance sheet, $31.5 million of paid in-kind interest, and $255.1 million of unpaid claims.
Removed
In our model, physicians are able to retain their independence and entrepreneurial spirit, while gaining access to the tools, teams and technologies that are key to success in a VBC model, all while sharing in the savings from successfully improving the quality of patient care and reducing costs.
Added
Based on our currently available cash resources, including the aggregate proceeds of $30.0 million we received from a related party financing transaction in February and March 2025, and assuming no other financing transactions, we believe we will require additional funding in 2025.
Removed
We operate in the $944 billion Medicare market, which covers approximately 66 million eligible lives as of October 2023. Our core focus is the MA market, which makes up approximately 51% of the overall Medicare market, or nearly 31 million Medicare eligible lives in 2023.
Added
We continue to explore raising additional capital through a combination of debt financing and equity issuances and sales of assets.
Removed
Medicare beneficiaries may enroll in an MA plan, under which payors contract with the CMS to provide a defined range of healthcare services that are comparable to Medicare FFS (which is also referred to as “traditional Medicare”). We predominantly enter into capitated contracts with the nation’s largest health plans to provide holistic, comprehensive healthcare to MA members.
Added
As substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern exists, our ability to finance our operations through the sale and issuance of debt or equity securities or through bank or other financing could be impaired and there is no assurance that sources of financing will be available on a timely basis, or on satisfactory terms, or at all.
Removed
Under the typical capitation arrangement, we are entitled to PMPM fees from payors to provide a defined range of healthcare services for MA health plan members attributed to our PCPs. These PMPM fees comprise our capitated revenue and are determined as a percent of the premium (“POP”) payors receive from CMS for these members.
Added
If we are unable to raise additional capital or generate cash flows necessary to fund our operations or refinance our indebtedness, we will need to curtail planned activities, discontinue certain operations, or sell certain assets, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects.
Removed
Our contracted recurring revenue model offers us highly predictable revenue, and rewards us for providing high-quality care rather than driving a high volume of services. In this capitated arrangement, our goals are well-aligned with payors and patients alike—the more we improve health outcomes, the more profitable we will be over time.
Added
Risks Related to Our Operating History We have a history of net losses. We expect to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future and we may never achieve or maintain profitability. We have experienced losses since our inception. For the year ended December 31, 2024, we incurred net losses of $310.4 million.
Removed
Under this capitated contract structure, we are generally responsible for all members’ medical costs across the care continuum, including, but not limited to emergency room and hospital visits, post-acute care admissions, prescription drugs, specialist physician spend, and primary care spend. Keeping members healthy is our primary objective.
Added
We expect that our operating expenses will continue to increase as we grow our business, build relationships with physician partners and payors, develop new services and comply with the requirements associated with being a public company.
Removed
When they need medical care, delivery of the right care in the right setting can greatly impact outcomes. When our members need care outside of our network of PCPs, we utilize a number of tools including network management, utilization management and claims processing to ensure that the appropriate quality care is provided.
Added
We may not succeed in sufficiently increasing our revenue to offset these expenses. Consequently, we may not be able to achieve and maintain profitability for the current or any future fiscal year.
Removed
Our company was formed in 2017 and our first at-risk contract became effective on January 1, 2018.
Added
We may never be able to generate sufficient revenue to achieve or sustain profitability and our recent and historical growth should not be considered indicative of our future performance. We may need to raise additional capital to fund our existing operations or develop and commercialize new services or expand our operations.
Removed
We have demonstrated an ability to rapidly scale, primarily entering markets with our affiliate physician model, and expanding to a PCP network of approximately 2,750 physicians, in 18 markets (counties) across five states in six full years of operations as of December 31, 2023.
Added
We may need to spend significant amounts to fund our existing operations, including expansion into new geographies, to improve our platform and to develop new services.
Removed
Our platform has enabled us to grow our revenue by an average of 84% annually from December 31, 2018 to December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, our PCP network served approximately 108,900 at-risk members.
Added
Based upon management’s assessment of the P3 Health Partners Inc. | 2024 Form 10-K | 17 Table of Contents Company’s ability to continue as a going concern as described above in the risk factor entitled “ Our management has performed an analysis of our ability to continue as a going concern and has identified substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern ,” absent additional funding, we believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash are not sufficient to fund our operating and capital needs for at least the next 12 months.
Removed
We believe we have significant growth opportunities available to us across existing and new markets, with less than 1% of the 520,000 PCPs in the U.S. currently included in our physician network.
Added
We maintain the majority of our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in accounts with major U.S. financial institutions, and our deposits at these institutions, at times, may exceed insured limits. Market conditions can impact the viability of these institutions.
Removed
P3 Health Partners Inc. | 2023 Form 10-K | 55 Table of Contents Key Factors Affecting our Performance Growing Medicare Advantage Membership on Our Platform Membership and revenue are tied to the number of members attributed to our physician network by our payors.
Added
In the event of failure of any of the financial institutions where we maintain our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, there can be no assurance that we would be able to access uninsured funds in a timely manner or at all. Any inability to access or delay in accessing these funds could adversely affect our business and financial position.
Removed
We believe we have multiple avenues to serve additional members, including through: • Growth in membership under our existing contracts and existing markets: ◦ Patients who are attributed to our physician network who (a) age into Medicare and elect to enroll in MA or (b) elect to convert from Medicare FFS to MA. • Adding new contracts (either payor contracts or physician contracts) in existing markets. • Adding new contracts (either payor contracts or physician contracts) in adjacent and new markets.
Added
Our expectation regarding the sufficiency of funds is based on assumptions that may change as a result of many factors currently unknown to us. Until such time, if ever, as we can generate sufficient revenue, we may finance our cash needs through a combination of equity offerings and debt financings or other sources.
Removed
Growing Existing Contract Membership As new patients age-in to Medicare and enroll in MA through our payors, they become attributed to our network of physicians with little incremental cost to us. In addition to age-ins, Medicare eligible patients can change their enrollment selections during select periods throughout the year.
Added
In addition, we may seek additional capital due to favorable market conditions or strategic considerations, even if we believe that we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans.
Removed
Our sales and marketing teams actively work with local community partners to connect with Medicare eligible patients and make them aware of their healthcare choices and the services that we offer with our VBC model, including greater access to their physicians and customized care plans catered to their needs.
Added
Our present and future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including: • our ability to achieve revenue growth; • our ability to effectively manage medical expense amounts; • the cost of expanding our operations, including our geographic scope, and our offerings, including our marketing efforts; • our rate of progress in launching, commercializing and establishing adoption of our services; and • the effect of competing technological and market developments.
Removed
The ultimate effect of our marketing efforts is increased awareness of P3 and additional patients choosing us as their primary care provider.
Added
To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, your ownership interest will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect your rights as a securityholder.
Removed
We believe that our marketing efforts also help to grow our payor partners’ membership base as we grow our own patient base and help educate patients about their choices on Medicare, further aligning our model with that of healthcare payors.
Added
In addition, debt financing and preferred equity financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends and these forms of financing may have rights, preferences, and privileges senior to those of holders of our common stock and may involve restrictive covenants which could place significant restrictions on our operations.
Removed
Growing Membership in Adjacent and New Markets Our affiliate model allows us to quickly and efficiently enter into new and adjacent markets in two ways: (1) partnering with payors and (2) partnering with providers. Because our model honors the existing patient-provider relationship, we are able to deploy our care model around existing physicians in a given a market.
Added
For example, since December 2022, in various private placement transactions and in connection with the issuance of unsecured promissory notes (see Note 10 “Debt” to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-K), we have issued an aggregate of 110.8 million shares of Class A common stock and warrants and pre-funded warrants to purchase an aggregate of 307.1 million shares of Class A common stock.
Removed
By utilizing the local healthcare infrastructure, we can quickly build a network of PCPs to serve the healthcare needs of contracted members. Our business development and managed care teams maintain an active pipeline of new partnership opportunities for both providers and payors.
Added
“ Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources .” If we raise additional funds through collaborations, strategic alliances or marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may be required to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, intellectual property, or future revenue streams or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us.
Removed
These potential opportunities are developed through significant inbound interest and the deep relationships our team has developed with their more than 20 years of experience in the VBC space and our proactive assessment of expansion markets. When choosing a market to enter, we make our decision on a county-by-county basis across the United States.
Added
Furthermore, any capital raising efforts may divert our management from their day-to-day activities, which may adversely affect our ability to advance development activities.
Removed
We look at various factors including: (i) population size, (ii) payor participants and concentration, (iii) health system participants and concentration, and (iv) competitive landscape. When entering a new market, we supplement the existing physician network with local market leadership teams and support infrastructure to drive the improvement in medical cost and quality.
Added
Our business and the markets in which we operate are rapidly evolving, which makes it difficult to evaluate our future prospects and the risks and challenges we may encounter.
Removed
When entering an adjacent market, we are able to leverage the investments we previously made to have a faster impact on our expanded footprint. As of December 31, 2023, we operate in 18 markets, markets being counties, across five states.
Added
Our business and the markets in which we operate are rapidly evolving which make it difficult to evaluate and assess the success of our business to date, our future prospects and the risks and challenges that we may encounter.
Removed
Growing Membership in Existing Markets Once established in a market, we have an opportunity to efficiently expand both our provider and payor contracts. Given the benefits PCPs experience from joining our P3 Care Model, which offers providers the teams, tools and technologies to better support their patient base, we often experience growth in our affiliate network after entering a market.
Added
These risks and challenges include our ability to: • attract new members and partner physicians to our platform and position our platform as a convenient and accepted way to access and deliver healthcare; P3 Health Partners Inc. | 2024 Form 10-K | 18 Table of Contents • retain our current members, affiliated professional entities and other physician partners and encourage them to continue to utilize our platform and services; • gain market acceptance of our services and products with members and physicians and maintain and expand such relationships; • comply with existing and new laws and regulations applicable to our business and in our industry; • anticipate and respond to changes in Medicare reimbursement rates and the markets in which we operate; • react to challenges from existing and new competitors; • maintain and enhance our reputation and brand; • effectively manage our growth and business operations, including new geographies; • forecast our revenue, which includes reimbursements, and budget for, and manage, our expenses, including our medical expense amounts, and capital expenditures; • hire and retain talented individuals at all levels of our organization; • maintain and improve the infrastructure underlying our platform, including our data protection, intellectual property and cybersecurity; and • successfully update our platform and services, including expanding our services into different healthcare products and services, develop and update our software, offerings and services to benefit our members.
Removed
Because of the benefits, we have also historically experienced high retention with our affiliate providers. From 2018 through December 31, 2023, we experienced a 98% physician retention rate in our affiliate provider network.
Added
If we fail to understand fully or adequately address the challenges that we are currently encountering or that we may encounter in the future, including those challenges described here and elsewhere in this “ Risk Factors ” section, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
Removed
By expanding our affiliate provider network and adding new physicians to the P3 network, we can quickly increase the number of contracted at-risk members under our existing health plan arrangements.
Added
If the risks and uncertainties that we plan for when operating our business are incorrect or change, or if we fail to manage these risks successfully, our results of operations could differ materially from our expectations and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
Removed
P3 Health Partners Inc. | 2023 Form 10-K | 56 Table of Contents Additionally, by expanding the number of contracted payors, we can leverage our existing infrastructure to quickly increase our share of patients within our physician network.
Added
Our relatively limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our future prospects and the risks and challenges we may encounter. We were established in 2017 and we are continuing to grow our marketing and management capabilities.
Removed
Growing Capitated Revenue Per Member Medicare pays capitation using a risk adjusted model, which compensates payors based on the health status, or acuity, of each individual member. Payors with higher acuity members receive a higher payment and those with lower acuity members receive a lower payment.
Added
Consequently, predictions about our future success or viability may not be as accurate as they could be if we had a longer operating history.

Comprehensive statutes and regulations govern the manner in which we provide and bill for services and collect reimbursement from governmental programs and private payors, our contractual relationships and arrangements with healthcare providers and vendors, our marketing activities and other aspects of our operations.
Removed
Of particular importance are: • the federal Anti-Kickback Statute (the “AKS”), which prohibits the knowing and willful offer, payment, solicitation or receipt of any bribe, kickback, rebate or other remuneration for referring an individual, in return for ordering, leasing, purchasing or recommending or arranging for or to induce the referral of an individual or the ordering, purchasing or leasing of items or services covered, in whole or in part, by any federal healthcare program, such as Medicare and Medicaid.
Removed
Although there are several statutory exceptions and regulatory safe harbors protecting certain common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly.
Removed
By way of example, the AKS safe harbor for value-based arrangements requires, P3 Health Partners Inc. | 2023 Form 10-K | 33 Table of Contents among other things, that the arrangement does not induce a person or entity to reduce or limit medically necessary items or services furnished to any patient.
Removed
Failure to meet the requirements of a safe harbor, however, does not render an arrangement illegal, although such arrangements may be subject to greater scrutiny by government authorities.
Removed
Further, a person or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation; • the federal physician self-referral law (the “Stark Law”), which, subject to limited exceptions, prohibits physicians from referring Medicare or Medicaid patients to an entity for the provision of certain designated health services (“DHS”), if the physician or a member of such physician’s immediate family has a direct or indirect financial relationship (including an ownership interest or a compensation arrangement) with the entity, and prohibits the entity from billing Medicare or Medicaid for such DHS.
Removed
Unlike the AKS, the Stark Law is violated if the financial arrangement does not meet an applicable exception, regardless of any intent by the parties to induce or reward referrals or the reasons for the financial relationship and the referral; • the federal False Claims Act (the “FCA”), which imposes civil and criminal liability on individuals or entities that knowingly submit false or fraudulent claims for payment to the government or knowingly make, or cause to be made, a false statement in order to have a false claim paid, including qui tam or whistleblower suits.
Removed
There are many potential bases for liability under the FCA. The government has used the FCA to prosecute Medicare and other government healthcare program fraud; including alleged upcoding or improper coding of diagnosis codes under the risk-adjustment methodology, billing for services not provided, and providing care that is not medically necessary or that is substandard in quality.
Removed
In addition, we could be held liable under the FCA if we are deemed to “cause” the submission of false or fraudulent claims by, for example, providing inaccurate billing, coding or risk adjustment information to our affiliated professional entities and other physician partners through Provider Portal and Analytic Management Tools, respectively.
Removed
The government may also assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the AKS or Stark Law constitutes a false or fraudulent claim for purposes of the FCA; • the Civil Monetary Penalties Statute, which prohibits, among other things, an individual or entity from offering remuneration to a federal healthcare program beneficiary that the individual or entity knows or should know is likely to influence the beneficiary to order or receive healthcare items or services from a particular provider; • the criminal healthcare fraud provisions of HIPAA and related rules that prohibit knowingly and willfully executing a scheme or artifice to defraud any healthcare benefit program or falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any material false, fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services.
Removed
Similar to the AKS, a person or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation; • reassignment of payment rules that prohibit certain types of billing and collection practices in connection with claims payable by the Medicare or Medicaid programs; • similar state law provisions pertaining to anti-kickback, self-referral and false claims issues, some of which may apply to items or services reimbursed by any payor, including patients and commercial insurers; • laws that regulate debt collection practices; • a provision of the Social Security Act that imposes criminal penalties on healthcare providers who fail to disclose, or refund known overpayments; • federal and state laws that prohibit providers from billing and receiving payment from Medicare and Medicaid for services unless the services are medically necessary, adequately and accurately documented, and billed using codes that accurately reflect the type and level of services rendered; and • federal and state laws pertaining to the provision of services by nurse practitioners and physician assistants in certain settings, physician supervision of those services, and reimbursement requirements that depend on the types of services provided and documented and relationships between physician supervisors and nurse practitioners and physician assistants.

Our contractual relationships with our affiliated professional entities and other physician partners may implicate certain state laws that generally prohibit non-professional entities from providing licensed medical services or exercising control over licensed physicians or other healthcare professionals (such activities generally referred to as the “corporate practice of medicine”) or engaging in certain practices such as fee-splitting with such licensed professionals.
Removed
The interpretation and enforcement of these laws vary significantly from state to state.
Removed
There can be no assurance that these laws will be interpreted in a manner consistent with our practices or that other laws or regulations will not be enacted in the future that could have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Removed
Regulatory authorities, state boards of medicine, state attorneys general and other parties may assert that, despite the agreements through which we operate, we are engaged in the provision of medical services and/or that our arrangements with our affiliated professional entities and other physician partners constitute unlawful fee-splitting.
Removed
If a jurisdiction’s prohibition on the corporate practice of medicine or fee-splitting is interpreted in a manner that is inconsistent with our practices, we would be required to restructure or terminate our arrangements with our affiliated professional entities and other physician partners to bring our activities into compliance with such laws.
Removed
A determination of non-compliance, or the termination of or failure to successfully restructure these relationships could result in disciplinary action, penalties, P3 Health Partners Inc. | 2023 Form 10-K | 35 Table of Contents damages, fines, and/or a loss of revenue, any of which could have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Removed
State corporate practice and fee-splitting prohibitions also often impose penalties on healthcare professionals for aiding in the improper rendering of professional services, which could discourage physicians and other healthcare professionals from providing clinical services to members of the health plans with whom we contract. We face inspections, reviews, audits and investigations under federal and state government programs and contracts.
Removed
These audits could have adverse findings that may negatively affect our business, including our results of operations, liquidity, financial condition and reputation. As a result of our participation in the Medicare and Medicaid programs, we are subject to various governmental inspections, reviews, audits and investigations to verify our compliance with these programs and applicable laws and regulations.
Removed
Other third-party payors may also reserve the right to conduct audits. We also periodically conduct internal audits and reviews of our regulatory compliance.
Removed
An adverse inspection, review, audit or investigation could result in: • refunding amounts we have been paid pursuant to the Medicare or Medicaid programs or from payors; • state or federal agencies imposing fines, penalties and other sanctions on us; • temporary suspension of payment for new patients to the facility or agency; • decertification or exclusion from participation in the Medicare or Medicaid programs or one or more payor networks; • self-disclosure of violations to applicable regulatory authorities; • damage to our reputation; • the revocation of a facility’s or agency’s license; • criminal penalties; • a corporate integrity agreement with HHS’s Office of Inspector General; and • loss of certain rights under, or termination of, our contracts with payors.
Removed
We have in the past and will likely in the future be required to refund amounts we have been paid and/or pay fines and penalties as a result of these inspections, reviews, audits and investigations.
Removed
If adverse inspections, reviews, audits or investigations occur and any of the results noted above occur, it could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results. Furthermore, the legal, document production and other costs associated with complying with these inspections, reviews, audits or investigations could be significant.
Removed
Our records and submissions to a health plan may contain inaccurate or unsupportable information regarding risk adjustment scores of members, which could cause us to overstate or understate our revenue and subject us to various penalties.
Removed
The claims and encounter records that we submit to health plans may impact data that support the Medicare Risk Adjustment Factor (“RAF”) scores attributable to members.
Removed
These RAF scores determine, in part, the revenue to which the health plans and, in turn, we or our affiliated professional entities or other physician partners are entitled for the provision of medical care to such members.
Removed
The data submitted to CMS by each health plan is based, in part, on medical charts and diagnosis codes that we prepare and submit to the health plans. Each health plan generally relies on us and our affiliated professional entities or other physician partners to appropriately document and support such RAF data in our medical records.

Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in any forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those set forth under Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements ,” Item 1A. Risk Factors and elsewhere in this Form 10-K.
Added
Our historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any periods in the future. Overview P3 is a patient-centered and physician-led population health management company. We strive to offer superior care to all those in need.
Added
We believe that the misaligned incentives in the FFS healthcare payment model and the fragmentation between physicians and care teams has led to sub-optimal clinical outcomes, limited access, high spending and unnecessary variability in the quality of care.
Added
We believe that a platform such as ours, which helps to realign incentives and focuses on treating the full patient, is uniquely positioned to address these healthcare challenges.
Added
We have leveraged the expertise of our management team’s more than 20 years of experience in population health management, to build our “P3 Care Model.” The key attributes that differentiate P3 include: 1) patient-focused model, 2) physician-led model, and 3) our broad delegated model.
Added
Our model operates by entering into arrangements with payors providing for monthly payments to manage the total healthcare needs of members attributed to our primary care physicians. In tandem, we enter into arrangements directly with existing physician groups or independent physicians in the community to join our VBC network.
Added
In our model, physicians are able to retain their independence and entrepreneurial spirit, while gaining access to the tools, teams and technologies that are key to success in a VBC model, all while sharing in the savings from successfully improving the quality of patient care and reducing costs.
Added
We operate in the $1,030 billion Medicare market, which covers approximately 68 million eligible lives as of November 2024. Our core focus is the MA market, which makes up approximately 54% of the overall Medicare market, or nearly 33 million Medicare eligible lives in 2024.
Added
Medicare beneficiaries may enroll in an MA plan, under which payors contract with the CMS to provide a defined range of healthcare services that are comparable to Medicare FFS (which is also referred to as “traditional Medicare”). We predominantly enter into capitated contracts with the nation’s largest health plans to provide holistic, comprehensive healthcare to MA members.
Added
Under the typical capitation arrangement, we are entitled to PMPM fees from payors to provide a defined range of healthcare services for MA health plan members attributed to our PCPs. These PMPM fees comprise our capitated revenue and are determined as a percent of the premium (“POP”) payors receive from CMS for these members.
Added
Our contracted recurring revenue model offers us highly predictable revenue, and rewards us for providing high-quality care rather than driving a high volume of services. In this capitated arrangement, our goals are well-aligned with payors and patients alike—the more we improve health outcomes, the more profitable we will be over time.
Added
Under this capitated contract structure, we are generally responsible for all members’ medical costs across the care continuum, including, but not limited to emergency room and hospital visits, post-acute care admissions, prescription drugs, specialist physician spend, and primary care spend. Keeping members healthy is our primary objective.
Added
When they need medical care, delivery of the right care in the right setting can greatly impact outcomes. When our members need care outside of our network of PCPs, we utilize a number of tools including network management, utilization management and claims processing to ensure that the appropriate quality care is provided.
Added
Our company was formed in 2017 and our first at-risk contract became effective on January 1, 2018.
Added
We have demonstrated an ability to rapidly scale, primarily entering markets with our affiliate physician model, and expanding to a PCP network of approximately 3,100 physicians, in 27 markets (counties) across five states in over six full years of operations as of December 31, 2024.
Added
Our platform has enabled us to grow our revenue by an average of 74% annually from December 31, 2020 to December 31, 2024. As of December 31, 2024, our PCP network served approximately 123,800 at-risk members.
Added
We believe we have significant growth opportunities available to us across existing and new markets, with less than 1% of the 535,000 PCPs in the U.S. currently included in our physician network.
Added
P3 Health Partners Inc. | 2024 Form 10-K | 55 Table of Contents Key Factors Affecting our Performance Growing Medicare Advantage Membership on Our Platform Membership and revenue are tied to the number of members attributed to our physician network by our payors.
Added
We believe we have multiple avenues to serve additional members, including through: • Growth in membership under our existing contracts and existing markets: ◦ Patients who are attributed to our physician network who (a) age into Medicare and elect to enroll in MA or (b) elect to convert from Medicare FFS to MA. • Adding new contracts (either payor contracts or physician contracts) in existing markets. • Adding new contracts (either payor contracts or physician contracts) in adjacent and new markets.
Added
Growing Existing Contract Membership As new patients age-in to Medicare and enroll in MA through our payors, they become attributed to our network of physicians with little incremental cost to us. In addition to age-ins, Medicare eligible patients can change their enrollment selections during select periods throughout the year.
Added
Our sales and marketing teams actively work with local community partners to connect with Medicare eligible patients and make them aware of their healthcare choices and the services that we offer with our VBC model, including greater access to their physicians and customized care plans catered to their needs.
Added
The ultimate effect of our marketing efforts is increased awareness of P3 and additional patients choosing us as their primary care provider.
Added
We believe that our marketing efforts also help to grow our payor partners’ membership base as we grow our own patient base and help educate patients about their choices on Medicare, further aligning our model with that of healthcare payors.
Added
Growing Membership in Adjacent and New Markets Our affiliate model allows us to quickly and efficiently enter into new and adjacent markets in two ways: (1) partnering with payors and (2) partnering with providers. Because our model honors the existing patient-provider relationship, we are able to deploy our care model around existing physicians in a given a market.
Added
By utilizing the local healthcare infrastructure, we can quickly build a network of PCPs to serve the healthcare needs of contracted members. We maintain an active pipeline of new partnership opportunities for both providers and payors.
Added
These potential opportunities are developed through significant inbound interest and the deep relationships our team has developed with their more than 20 years of experience in the VBC space and our proactive assessment of expansion markets. When choosing a market to enter, we make our decision on a county-by-county basis across the United States.
Added
We look at various factors including: (i) population size, (ii) payor participants and concentration, (iii) health system participants and concentration, and (iv) competitive landscape. When entering a new market, we supplement the existing physician network with local market leadership teams and support infrastructure to drive the improvement in medical cost and quality.
Added
When entering an adjacent market, we are able to leverage the investments we previously made to have a faster impact on our expanded footprint. Growing Membership in Existing Markets Once established in a market, we have an opportunity to efficiently expand both our provider and payor contracts.
Added
Given the benefits PCPs experience from joining our P3 Care Model, which offers providers the teams, tools and technologies to better support their patient base, we often experience growth in our affiliate network after entering a market. Because of the benefits, we have also historically experienced high retention with our affiliate providers.
Added
From 2018 through December 31, 2024, we experienced a 95% physician retention rate in our affiliate provider network. By expanding our affiliate provider network and adding new physicians to the P3 network, we can quickly increase the number of contracted at-risk members under our existing health plan arrangements.
Added
P3 Health Partners Inc. | 2024 Form 10-K | 56 Table of Contents Additionally, by expanding the number of contracted payors, we can leverage our existing infrastructure to quickly increase our share of patients within our physician network.
Added
However, we have and intend to continue to conduct periodic strategic reviews of our provider and payor contracts, as a result of which we may elect to periodically exit underperforming provider and payor contracts from our network.
Added
Growing Capitated Revenue Per Member Medicare pays capitation using a risk adjusted model, which compensates payors based on the health status, or acuity, of each individual member. Payors with higher acuity members receive a higher payment and those with lower acuity members receive a lower payment.
Added
Moreover, some of our capitated revenue also includes adjustments for performance incentives or penalties based on the achievement of certain clinical quality metrics as contracted with payors. Given the prevalence of FFS arrangements, our patients often have historically not participated in a VBC model, and therefore their health conditions are poorly documented.
Added
Through the P3 Care Model, we determine and assess the health needs of our patients and create an individualized care plan consistent with those needs. We capture and document health conditions as a part of this process.
Added
We expect that our PMPM revenue will continue to improve the longer members participate in our care model as we better understand and assess their health status (acuity) and coordinate their medical care. Effectively Managing Member Medical Expense Our medical expense is our largest expense category, representing 86% of our total operating expense for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Added
We manage our medical costs by improving our members access to healthcare. Our care model focuses on maintaining health and leveraging the primary care setting as a means of avoiding costly downstream healthcare costs, such as emergency department visits and acute hospital inpatient admissions.
Added
Achieving Operating Efficiencies As a result of our affiliate model and ability to leverage our existing local and national infrastructure, we aim to generate operating efficiencies at both the market and enterprise level.
Added
Our local corporate, general and administrative expense, which includes our local leadership, care management teams and other operating costs to support our markets, are expected to decrease over time as a percentage of revenue as we add members to our existing contracts, grow membership with new payor and physician contracts, and our revenue subsequently increases.
Added
Our corporate general and administrative expenses at the enterprise level include resources and technology to support payor contracting, quality, data management, delegated services, finance and legal functions.
Added
While we expect our absolute investment in our enterprise resources to increase over time, we expect our investment will decrease as a percentage of revenue when we are able to leverage our infrastructure across a broader group of at-risk members.
Added
We expect our corporate, general and administrative expenses to increase in absolute dollars in the future as we continue to invest to support growth of our business, as well as due to the costs required to operate as a public company, including insurance coverage, investments in internal audit, investor relations and financial reporting functions, fees paid to the Nasdaq Stock Market, and increased legal and audit fees.
Added
Impact of Seasonality Our operational and financial results reflect some variability depending upon the time of year in which they are measured. This variability is most notable in the following areas: At-Risk Member Growth . While new members are attributed to our platform throughout the year, we experience the largest portion of our at-risk member growth during the first quarter.
Added
Contracts with new payors typically begin on January 1, at which time new members become attributed to our network of physicians. Additionally, new members are attributed to our network on January 1, when plan enrollment selections made during the prior Annual Enrollment Period from October 15 through December 7 of the prior year take effect. Revenue Per Member .
Added
Our revenue is based on percentage of premium we have negotiated with our payors as well as our ability to accurately and appropriately document the acuity of a member’s health status. We experience some seasonality with respect to our per member revenue as it will generally decline over the course of the year.
Added
In January of each year, CMS revises the risk adjustment factor for each patient based upon health conditions documented in the prior year, leading to an overall increase in per-patient revenue.
Added
As the year progresses, our per-patient revenue declines as new patients join us typically with less complete or accurate documentation (and therefore lower risk-adjustment scores) and patients with more severe acuity profiles (and, therefore, higher per member revenue rates) expire. P3 Health Partners Inc. | 2024 Form 10-K | 57 Table of Contents Medical Costs .
Added
Medical expense is driven by utilization of healthcare services by our attributed membership. Medical expense will vary seasonally depending on a number of factors, including the weather and the number of business days.
Added
Certain illnesses, such as the influenza virus, are far more prevalent during colder months of the year, which will result in an increase in medical expenses during these time periods. We would therefore expect to see higher levels of per-member medical expense in the first and fourth quarters.
Added
Business days can also create year-over-year comparability issues if one year has a different number of business days compared to another. Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Performance Metrics We use certain financial measures, which are not calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”), as well as key performance metrics, to supplement our consolidated financial statements.
Added
The measures set forth below should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in compliance with GAAP, and non-GAAP financial measures and key performance metrics as used by us may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
Added
Our presentation of these measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.
Added
The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures and key performance metrics provides additional information to investors regarding our results of operations that our management believes is useful for identifying trends, analyzing and benchmarking the performance of our business. Non-GAAP Financial Measures Adjusted EBITDA The key non-GAAP metric we utilize to measure our profitability and performance is Adjusted EBITDA.
Added
We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it helps investors understand underlying trends in our business and facilitates an understanding of our operating performance from period to period because it facilitates a comparison of our recurring core business operating results. By definition, EBITDA consists of net income (loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization.
Added
We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, further adjusted to exclude the effect of certain supplemental adjustments, such as mark-to-market warrant gain/loss, premium deficiency reserves, equity-based compensation expense, and certain other items that we believe are not indicative of our core operating performance.
Added
Our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be the same as the definitions used in any of our debt agreements. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of performance or liquidity calculated in accordance with GAAP. It is unaudited and should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) as an indicator of our operating performance.
Added
Uses of cash flows that are not reflected in Adjusted EBITDA include capital expenditures, interest payments, debt principal repayments, and other expenses defined above, which can be significant. As a result, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of our liquidity.
Added
Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA on a supplemental basis.
Added
You should review the reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA set forth below and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
Added
P3 Health Partners Inc. | 2024 Form 10-K | 58 Table of Contents The following table sets forth a reconciliation of our net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP metric, to Adjusted EBITDA loss: Year Ended December 31, 2024 2023 (in thousands) Net loss $ (310,378) $ (186,426) Interest expense, net 22,173 15,985 Depreciation and amortization 86,058 86,675 Income tax provision 4,387 2,695 Mark-to-market of stock warrants (22,114) (433) Premium deficiency reserve 53,698 (12,705) Equity-based compensation 5,752 5,979 Other (1) (6,775) 2,656 Transaction and other related costs (2) — 70 Adjusted EBITDA loss $ (167,199) $ (85,504) _____________________________________________ (1) Other during the year ended December 31, 2024 consisted of (i) interest income, (ii) gain recognized upon the settlement and write-off of contingent consideration related to an acquisition completed in a prior year and (iii) gain recognized on asset sale partially offset by (iv) severance and related expense in connection with our chief executive officer transition (v) loss on impairment on assets held for sale, and (vi) valuation allowance on our notes receivable.
Added
Other during the year ended December 31, 2023 consisted of (i) interest income offset by (ii) cybersecurity incident loss, (iii) restructuring and other charges, including severance and benefits paid to employees pursuant to workforce reduction plans, (iv) the disposition of our Pahrump operations, (v) expenses for third-party consultants to assist us with the development, implementation, and documentation of new and enhanced internal controls and processes for compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404(b), (vi) a legal settlement outside of the ordinary course of business, and (vii) valuation allowance on our notes receivable.
Added
(2) Transaction and other related costs during the year ended December 31, 2023 consisted of legal fees incurred related to acquisition-related litigation. Medical Margin Medical margin is a non-GAAP financial metric.
Added
We present medical margin because we believe it helps investors understand underlying trends in our business and facilitates an understanding of our operating performance from period to period by facilitating a comparison of our recurring core business operating results. Medical margin represents the amount earned from capitated revenue after medical claims expenses are deducted.
Added
Medical claims expenses represent costs incurred for medical services provided to our members. As our platform grows and matures over time, we expect medical margin to increase in absolute dollars; however, medical margin PMPM may vary as the percentage of new members brought onto our platform fluctuates. New membership added to the platform is typically dilutive to medical margin PMPM.
Added
Medical margin should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using medical margin on a supplemental basis.
Added
You should review the reconciliation of gross profit to medical margin set forth below and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

Added
Gross Profit Gross profit represents the amount earned from total operating revenue less the sum of: (i) medical claims expenses and (ii) other medical expenses including physician compensation expense related to surplus sharing and bonuses and other direct medical expenses incurred to improve care for our members.
Added
We believe this metric provides insight into the economics of the P3 Care Model, as it includes all medical claims expense associated with our members’ care as well as partner compensation and additional medical costs we incur as part of our aligned partnership model.
Added
Other medical expenses are largely variable and proportionate to the level of surplus in each respective market, among other cost factors.

Added
We had 123,800 and 108,900 at-risk members as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Affiliate Primary Care Physicians Affiliate primary care physicians represent the approximate number of primary care physicians included in our affiliate network, with whom members may be attributed under our capitation arrangements, as of the end of the reporting period.
Added
We had 3,100 and 2,750 primary care physicians as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Platform Support Costs Our platform support costs, which include regionally-based support personnel and other operating costs to support our markets, are expected to decrease over time as a percentage of revenue as our physician partners add members and our revenue grows.
Added
Our operating expenses at the enterprise level include resources and technology to support payor contracting, clinical program development, quality, data management, finance, and legal functions. We exclude costs related to the operations of our owned medical clinics and wellness centers.
Added
P3 Health Partners Inc. | 2024 Form 10-K | 60 Table of Contents The table below represents costs to support our markets and enterprise functions, which are included in corporate, general and administrative expenses: Year Ended December 31, 2024 2023 (dollars in thousands) Platform support costs $ 92,202 $ 96,937 % of total operating revenue 6.1 % 7.7 % Key Components of Results of Operations Revenue Capitated revenue.
Added
We contract with health plans using an at-risk model. Under the at-risk model, we are responsible for the cost of all covered health care services provided to members assigned by the health plans to the Company in exchange for a fixed payment, which generally is a POP based on health plans’ premiums received from CMS.
Added
Through this capitation arrangement, we stand ready to provide assigned MA members all their medical care via our directly employed and affiliated physician/specialist network. The premiums health plans receive are determined via a competitive bidding process with CMS and are based on the costs of care in local markets and the average utilization of services by patients enrolled.
Added
Medicare pays capitation using a “risk adjustment model,” which compensates providers based on the health status (acuity) of each individual patient. MA plans with higher acuity patients receive higher premiums. Conversely, MA plans with lower acuity patients receive lesser premiums.
Added
Under the risk adjustment model, capitation is paid on an interim basis based on enrollee data submitted for the preceding year and is adjusted in subsequent periods after final data is compiled.
Added
As premiums are adjusted via this risk adjustment model (using a Risk Adjustment Factor, “RAF”), our PMPM payments change commensurately with how our contracted Medicare Advantage plans’ premiums change with CMS.
