Overview
Health care organizations value attorney Erin Sutton’s strong focus on state and federal health regulatory analysis.
Erin helps clients navigate issues related to the corporate practice of medicine, professional licensure, scope of practice, and telehealth laws for a wide range of clients. She also works on issues relating to the provision of mental health and substance use disorder treatment, reproductive health care, gender-affirming care, and other areas at the forefront of public health and health care delivery.
Erin is a contributing author of Epstein Becker Green’s Telemental Health Laws app, a comprehensive survey of state telehealth laws, regulations, and policies for mental and behavioral health practitioners and stakeholders across all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico.
Before joining Epstein Becker Green, Erin was associate counsel at a major physician lobbying group, directly advising the general counsel on a large portfolio of health care and public health issues. Prior to that, she worked for a federally funded legal aid organization where she sought to remove low-income veterans’ legal obstacles to receiving treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder, traumatic brain injury, and military sexual trauma.
