Peoria, IL (PRWEB) October 23, 2013 -- Convergent Healthcare Recoveries, Inc., the healthcare industry’s leading provider of bad debt collection services focused on a positive patient experience, announces today the implementation of their SONAR healthcare bad debt collection program with Capio Partners, the largest purchasers of aged healthcare receivables to top providers across the nation.
