Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Privia Health Group, Inc.

Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Privia Health Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of stockholders’ equity and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2023, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2023 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.

Basis for Opinions

The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Valuation of Fee for Service Patient Care Accounts Receivable

As described in Notes 1 and 2 to the consolidated financial statements, substantially all of the Company’s accounts receivable relate to providing healthcare services to patients whose costs are primarily paid by federal and state governmental authorities or commercial insurance companies. The fee for service patient care (FFS patient care) accounts receivable makes up a portion of the Company’s consolidated net accounts receivable balance of $290.8 million as of December 31, 2023. FFS patient care revenue is primarily generated from third-party payers with which management has established contractual billing arrangements and is reported net of provisions for contractual allowances from third-party payers and patients. Management reports accounts receivable at an amount equal to the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for providing healthcare services to patients, which is estimated using historical reimbursement rates and an analysis of past experience to estimate potential adjustments.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the valuation of FFS patient care accounts receivable is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when developing the estimated value of FFS patient care accounts receivable and (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence related to adjustments based on historical reimbursement rates and analysis of past experience.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s valuation of FFS patient care accounts receivable. These procedures also included, among others (i) testing management’s process for developing the estimated value of FFS patient care accounts receivable, (ii) evaluating the appropriateness of management’s historical reimbursement rates and analysis of past experience to estimate potential adjustments, (iii) testing the completeness and accuracy of the underlying billing and reimbursement data used by management to estimate potential adjustments, and (iv) evaluating the historical accuracy of management’s process for developing the estimated value of FFS patient care accounts receivable by (a) testing, on a sample basis, the accuracy of revenue transactions and cash collections from the historical billing and reimbursement data used in management’s analysis and (b) comparing actual cash collections to the previously recorded estimated FFS patient care accounts receivable balance as of the prior year balance sheet date.

Valuation of Medicare Shared Savings Program Revenue

As described in Notes 1 and 2 to the consolidated financial statements, under the shared savings basis, the Company is offered financial incentives to increase their accountability for the cost, quality and efficiency of the care provided to the population of attributed members. Revenue from the Medicare Shared Savings Program (MSSP) makes up the majority of the Company’s consolidated shared savings revenue of $170.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The Company is paid the financial incentives when, for a given twelve-month measurement period, their performance on quality of care and utilization meets or exceeds the standards set by the payers as outlined in the contracts and when savings are achieved for medical costs associated with the population of attributed members. The payers analyze the activities during the measurement period using the agreed upon benchmarks, metrics and performance criteria to determine the appropriate payments to the Company. Management estimates the transaction price by analyzing the activities during the relevant time period in contemplation of the agreed upon benchmarks, metrics, performance criteria, inflation trend factors, risk ratio adjustments, and attribution criteria based on those and any other contractually defined factors. Revenue is not recorded until the price can be estimated by management and to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal will not occur once any uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. Revenue is recorded during the period when the services were provided during a pre-set twelve-month annual measurement period.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the valuation of MSSP revenue is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when developing the estimate of MSSP revenue, (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s significant assumptions related to inflation trend factors and risk ratio adjustments, and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s valuation of MSSP revenue. These procedures also included, among others (i) testing the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data used by management and (ii) the involvement of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge to assist in evaluating the reasonableness of management’s estimate of MSSP revenue, on a sample basis, by (a) developing an independent range of estimated MSSP revenue using independently developed assumptions related to inflation trend factors and risk ratio adjustments and (b) comparing the independent range of estimated MSSP revenue to management’s estimate.

Valuation of the Provider Liability for Unpaid Medical Claims Under At-Risk Capitation Arrangements

As described in Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s consolidated provider liability for unpaid medical claims under at-risk capitation arrangements was $67.1 million as of December 31, 2023. Provider liability estimates are developed using actuarial methods commonly used by health insurance actuaries that include a number of factors and assumptions including medical service utilization trends, changes in membership, observed medical cost trends, historical claim payment patterns and other factors. Each period, management re-examines previously established provider liability estimates based on actual claim submissions and other changes in facts and circumstances. As more complete claims information becomes available, management adjusts the estimates and recognizes changes in estimates in the period in which the change is identified. The estimated liability for unpaid medical claims under at-risk capitation arrangements is included in provider liability on the consolidated balance sheet.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the valuation of the provider liability for unpaid medical claims liability under at-risk capitation arrangements is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when developing the estimate of the provider liability for unpaid medical claims under at-risk capitation arrangements, (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s significant assumptions related to changes in membership and observed medical cost trends, and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s valuation of the provider liability for unpaid medical claims under at-risk capitation arrangements. These procedures also included, among others (i) testing the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data used by management and (ii) the involvement of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge to assist in (a) testing management’s process for developing the estimate of the provider liability for unpaid medical claims under at-risk capitation arrangements, (b) evaluating the appropriateness of management’s actuarial methodologies, and (c) evaluating the reasonableness of management’s significant assumptions related to changes in membership and observed medical cost trends.
