Commercial Debt Recovery — B2B Accounts Receivable

Southwest Recovery Services specializes in recovering outstanding commercial debts between businesses. Our contingency-based model means no upfront fees — we only collect when you do. We pursue business-to-business balances through professional demand letters, skip tracing, direct negotiation, and attorney referral support, protecting your client relationships throughout the process. Licensed in 20 states. No recovery, no fee.

Medical & Healthcare Debt Recovery

SWRS helps hospitals, clinics, dental practices, and healthcare networks recover unpaid patient balances while maintaining full HIPAA compliance. Our healthcare recovery team understands the unique compliance requirements of the medical billing cycle and works as a seamless extension of your revenue cycle — professionally and discreetly. Contingency-based. No upfront cost.

Property Management Debt Recovery

Unpaid rent, damages, and lease-break fees don't have to be write-offs. SWRS recovers outstanding balances for property managers and landlords — and reports delinquent accounts to Experian RentBureau, the nation's largest rental payment database. That reporting appears on future tenant screening reports, giving your collections real leverage. No recovery, no fee.

Early-Out Program — First-Party A/R Management

Before accounts go delinquent, SWRS's Early-Out Program reaches your customers as a seamless extension of your own billing team. We make early-stage contact on accounts 30–90 days past due using compliant outreach — dramatically improving recovery rates before balances age into hard collections. Ideal for healthcare, utilities, and subscription businesses.

Revenue Cycle Management (RCM)

SWRS provides end-to-end revenue cycle management for healthcare and service organizations — from first-party billing follow-up through third-party recovery. We integrate with your billing systems, identify collection gaps, and maximize liquidation at every stage of the A/R lifecycle. Reduce DSO and improve cash flow without adding headcount.

Accounts Receivable Management

SWRS serves as a full-service A/R management partner combining AI-powered outreach, trained collectors, and real-time reporting through our proprietary client portal at portal.swrecovery.com. Know exactly where every account stands — 24/7. No recovery, no fee.

Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) — Collections

For businesses seeking a fully outsourced collections solution, SWRS offers complete BPO services — managing the entire recovery lifecycle from placement through resolution. We handle staffing, compliance, technology, and reporting so your team stays focused on core operations. Scalable, compliant, cost-effective.

Skip Tracing & Debtor Locator Services

Lost contact with a debtor? SWRS's skip tracing team uses advanced data tools and proprietary databases to locate debtors who have moved or changed contact information. We verify current address, phone, and employment data to maximize right-party contact rates and accelerate recovery.

Legal Referral & Attorney Network

When accounts require legal escalation, SWRS's national network of licensed collection attorneys pursues litigation, liens, and judgments on your behalf. We manage the referral, monitor case progress, and keep you informed — all within our standard contingency framework. No additional management fees.

Credit Bureau Reporting

SWRS reports qualifying delinquent accounts to major credit bureaus, giving your collections real leverage. For property management clients, we report specifically to Experian RentBureau — the largest rental payment database in the country — ensuring unpaid balances follow tenants to their next rental application.
