Network Contribution is replaced by Gross Profit, which now incorporates other operating revenue and geography entry costs included in other medical expenses. Adjusted EBITDA now incorporates geography entry costs included in other medical expenses and G&A.

Includes direct geography entry costs, including investments to develop and expand our platform and costs in geographies that are in implementation and are not yet generating revenue and investments to grow existing markets. For the three months ended March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31, 2022, costs included in other medical expenses were $0.2 million, $3.5 million, $7.2 million, and $13.0 million, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2022, included in other medical expenses were $23.9 million. For the three months ended March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31, 2022, costs included general and administrative expenses were $3.8 million, $6.6 million, $14.1 million, and $19.4 million, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2022, included in general and administrative expenses were $43.9 million.

In addition to providing results that are determined in accordance with GAAP, we present medical margin and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures.

We define medical margin as medical services revenue after medical services expenses are deducted. Medical services expense represents costs incurred for medical services provided to our members. As our platform matures over time, we expect medical margin to increase in absolute dollars. However, medical margin per member per month (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. We believe this metric provides insight into the economics of our capitation arrangements as it includes all medical services expense directly associated with our members' care.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted to exclude: (i) income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, (ii) interest expense, (iii) income tax expense (benefit), (iv) depreciation and amortization, (v) stock-based compensation expense, (vi) severance and related costs, and (vii) certain other items that are not considered by us in the evaluation of ongoing operating performance. We reflect our share of Adjusted EBITDA for equity method investments by applying our actual ownership percentage for the period to the applicable reconciling items on an entity-by-entity basis.

Gross profit is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to medical margin. Net income (loss) is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Adjusted EBITDA.

We believe medical margin and Adjusted EBITDA help identify underlying trends in our business and facilitate evaluation of period-to-period operating performance of our operations by eliminating items that are variable in nature and not considered by us in the evaluation of ongoing operating performance, allowing comparison of our recurring core business operating results over multiple periods. We also believe medical margin and Adjusted EBITDA provide useful information about our operating results, enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics we use for financial and operational decision-making. We believe medical margin and Adjusted EBITDA or similarly titled non-GAAP measures are widely used by investors, securities analysts, ratings agencies, and other parties in evaluating companies in our industry as a measure of financial performance. Other companies may calculate medical margin and Adjusted EBITDA or similarly titled non-GAAP measures differently from the way we calculate these metrics. As a result, our presentation of medical margin and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
