Propelus

What Propelus does

Propelus (legally CE Broker, Inc.) is a healthcare workforce compliance technology company founded in 2003 and headquartered in Jacksonville Beach, Florida. The company provides a cloud-based SaaS platform that unifies continuing education management, primary source license verification, credentialing, occupational and employee health tracking, and workforce fraud screening. Its product portfolio consists of four core offerings: CE Broker (continuing education compliance tracking for licensed professionals), EverCheck (license verification and credentialing for healthcare employers), Immuware (occupational health and immunization tracking, acquired April 2023), and Propelus Data Solutions (AdverseCheck and Exclusions Monitoring API for fraud and abuse detection). The platform is API-first, maintains 99.99% uptime, and integrates with HR systems, licensing systems, and Oracle Cloud Marketplace; it holds SOC 2 Type 2 certification, NCQA validation across seven credential verification services, and WCAG 2.1 AA conformance.

Propelus serves a four-sided ecosystem: 5+ million licensed healthcare professionals, 375+ hospitals and health systems (with 400+ hospital networks on EverCheck), 110+ state licensing boards for which CE Broker serves as the designated official tracking system, and approximately 10,000 accredited CE content providers distributing 500,000+ courses. Named enterprise customers include Ascension, Northwell Health, Providence, Adventist Health, UF Health, Sinai Chicago, Carson Tahoe Health, and Community Health Systems, alongside state agencies such as the Florida Department of Health, Tennessee Department of Health, Michigan LARA, and South Carolina LLR.

Revenue is generated primarily through recurring subscriptions: enterprise contracts with healthcare employers for EverCheck and Immuware, professional subscriptions for CE Broker Pro+, and marketplace commissions from CE content providers. State boards receive free platform access under a freemium model, with revenue captured through the professionals and employers in their jurisdictions. The company employs a hybrid go-to-market combining direct enterprise field sales, self-serve portals (cebroker.com, evercheck.com, immuware.com), and channel partnerships with state boards and technology integrators. Propelus has been owned by Marlin Equity Partners since a January 2022 strategic growth investment.
