DUBAI-BASED DataFlow Group, a provider of Primary Source Verification (PSV) services, has acquired NEAC Medical Exams Application Center Inc. (NEAC), a specialist in medical licensing exam application services for nurses and healthcare professionals.
NEAC primarily serves Filipino nurses and healthcare professionals pursuing opportunities in the United States, Australia, New Zealand, and the Middle East. With DataFlow’s backing, NEAC plans to extend its advisory services to professionals from more countries, add destination countries, and expand its range of services.
Since its founding, NEAC has helped more than 100,000 nurses and other healthcare professionals secure licensure in the USA, UAE, UK, Saudi Arabia, Australia, and beyond.
Combining verification and licensing support
The acquisition brings together DataFlow’s network of more than 160,000 issuing authorities across 190+ countries and territories and NEAC’s nearly two decades of experience guiding healthcare professionals through international licensing processes.
“This acquisition is about accelerating what NEAC has already built. By combining their deep expertise in exam application services with DataFlow’s global reach, relationships, and technology, we can help many more healthcare professionals move confidently across borders and into the careers they’ve worked so hard to earn,” said Sunil Kumar, CEO, DataFlow Group.
NEAC will draw on DataFlow’s relationships with governments, regulators, and healthcare employers; its credential verification infrastructure, and its technology, including TrueProfile.io, the Group’s career-mobility platform for professionals.
International expansion
The acquisition marks DataFlow’s first direct step into the United States market. It forms part of the Group’s strategy to support healthcare professionals through credential verification, licensure, and employment.
“NEAC has built extraordinary trust with healthcare professionals over almost two decades, and that trust is the foundation we intend to build on. Our vision is to combine NEAC’s applicant-first approach with DataFlow’s verification expertise and global infrastructure to create a seamless, end-to-end journey for healthcare professionals—from credential verification to licensure to employment. This is just the beginning of what NEAC and DataFlow can achieve together,” said Amit, chief strategy officer, DataFlow Group.
DataFlow plans to preserve the personalized, applicant-first service NEAC is known for while adding its global infrastructure, verification technology, and institutional relationships to open new markets. The two companies will continue investing in tools, partnerships, and pathways that support healthcare professionals working across borders.
