Why Harvest?
If you provide medical services and have outstanding accounts receivables, you need medical receivables management specialists, not a “collection agency”. A typical collection agency does not have the expertise to provide medical collection services in the manner needed by medical professionals.
We consider ourselves “problem solvers” – your patients have a problem paying and you have a problem collecting what you’re owed. Harvest collectors take the time to work with your patients to understand each debtor’s circumstances to provide solutions that will help you reconcile your accounts receivable and increase your cash flow – all while maintaining the patient’s respect and confidence in you and your services.

Our Mission
Harvest Associates, Inc. is based in Spring, Texas and was founded in 1993. Harvest was started because our affiliate company could not find a collection agency that was small enough to provide personalized service yet large enough to have the resources to get results. With Harvest, we have been able to give our clients the attention that they deserve and do not get from the larger agencies. Our size gives us the flexibility to adapt to changes and individual needs of our clients. Our mission is to form a partnership based on the expressed needs and directives of our clients which yields the highest net return while maintaining relationships.
