Lauren Elrod, Esq

General Counsel and Compliance Officer

As a Federally Qualified Health Center, there are many regulations and laws Mountain Park needs to follow to remain in compliance. It’s my job to ensure we are following those rules, both on a federal and state level, and upholding our standards in accordance with Mountain Park’s own Compliance Program.

I have worked with some of Arizona’s largest employers and worked as outside legal counsel for the organization before joining full time in 2015.  

While keeping the organization in compliance with all the applicable regulations is crucial in continuing our mission to provide quality, affordable, convenient healthcare to communities we serve, I also get to have a hand in more direct patient care through our Medical Legal Partnership program. Our MLP program provides our patients free legal consultations, helping them overcome any legal barriers preventing them from reaching their health goals.
