Batchlor, Elaine — Martin Luther King Jr
Chief Executive
Martin Luther King Jr. Community Hospital
THE LATEST: The California Endowment earlier this year awarded $1 million to Martin Luther King Jr. Community Hospital for its medical group, which is working to close the physician gap in historically underserved South Los Angeles. In October, Batchlor was elected by a peer group of doctors to the National Academy of Medicine, an independent advisory scientific body on matters of human health and one of the highest honors in health and medicine. In June, the Partners in Care Foundation awarded Batchlor its annual Vision & Excellence in Healthcare Leadership Award.
BACKGROUND: Batchlor was instrumental in opening Martin Luther King Jr. Community Hospital in 2015. The nonprofit facility serves 1.3 million residents in South Los Angeles. She completed her residency and fellowship training in internal medicine and rheumatology at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center. She previously served as chief medical officer of L.A. Care Health Plan, a public health plan that covers underserved Los Angeles County residents. She also has served as a vice president at the California HealthCare Foundation, medical director for the Los Angeles County Office of Managed Care, chief medical officer for Prudential Health Care and clinical instructor at the UCLA School of Medicine.
