HealthTronics Chooses Epicor
Prominent Provider of TotalCareâ?¢ Urology Services and Equipment selects Epicor Enterprise Resource Planning Solution to Streamline Operations
IRVINE, Calif. (July 15, 2009) – Epicor Software Corporation (NASDAQ: EPIC), today
announced that HealthTronics, an industry-leading provider of urological services and products,
has chosen Epicor as its enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution provider. HealthTronics
will leverage the flexible functionality offered by Epicor, providing end-to-end support across the
company’s unique medical products and services business model.
Based in Austin, TX, HealthTronics is a premier urology company providing an exclusive
suite of healthcare services and technology, including urologist partnership opportunities,
surgical and capital equipment, maintenance services offerings, and anatomical pathology
services. Currently partnered with approximately one-third of the U.S. urologist base,
HealthTronics commands an increasingly complex business environment.
With a focus on midmarket expertise and financial recognition across a network of over
300 independently-operated medical providers, HealthTronics requires a flexible, yet
comprehensive enterprise software solution offering business insight including independent
financial recognition, powerful reporting tools and key performance indicator (KPI) tracking.
“Epicor’s focus is on the midmarket and up, and we were seeking a partnership that
would meet our requirements while allowing us to grow,” explained Jackie Fife, vice president of
information technology for HealthTronics. “We were drawn to Epicor’s comprehensive financial
applications and advanced integration with Microsoft tools. Our business model places high
demand on independent financials for each of our physician and facility partners. Additionally,
our business is unique in that we provide financial management, products and services, so we
needed a full-blown ERP solution with capabilities to support each of these areas.”
The Epicor ERP solution automates and optimizes business operations by integrating all
or a majority of the data and processes of an organization into a single, unified solution in order
to maximize profitable growth. Epicor offers a single, end-to-end solution that goes beyond

solution to help meet their unique business needs,” said James Norwood, vice president of
product marketing for Epicor. “Epicor will provide the technology foundation HealthTronics
requires to meet strict industry demands with the strong financial capabilities necessary to
