Tennessee Commercial Debt Collector: Healthcare & Logistics Hub

Net 30 stretched to Net 117 and your Nashville healthcare equipment contact says "waiting for HCA hospital system payment to cascade through before processing vendor payments"—for the fourteenth time. You've sent seventeen follow-ups, but the operations manager who approved your medical device lease for the Nashville hospital is now "waiting for healthcare system procurement settlement" and nobody else at the Tennessee medical facility will commit to a payment date.

The invoice references an LLC in Nashville (Tennessee's capital and largest city, healthcare industry capital), but they redirect you to Memphis FedEx logistics operations. Memphis says Knoxville manufacturing facility handles vendor payments for medical equipment. Knoxville redirects back to Nashville healthcare procurement. Location confusion across Tennessee—and your invoice sits unpaid while they continue hospital operations with your equipment actively treating patients.

You have the signed medical equipment lease agreement, installation confirmations at Nashville facility, and usage logs showing continuous operation serving patients. They've gone silent for 117 days, and you're not sure if this is legitimate Tennessee healthcare system payment timing or whether escalation damages all future opportunities in a state where healthcare (HCA headquarters) and logistics (FedEx SuperHub) dominate the economy.
