Montefiore Einstein

What Montefiore Einstein does

Montefiore Einstein is a private, nonprofit academic health system anchored in the Bronx, New York, and operating as the integrated entity formed in 2021 from the combination of Montefiore Health System and Albert Einstein College of Medicine. The system delivers patient care through 13 hospitals and more than 300 primary and specialty care locations across New York City, Westchester, and the Hudson Valley, and records approximately 7.5 million patient encounters annually. Its service portfolio spans oncology, cardiovascular, neurology, orthopedics, transplantation, pediatrics (including the Children's Hospital at Montefiore Einstein), and a recently opened 21-bed inpatient pediatric mental health center. Clinical delivery is paired with research and education: the Montefiore Einstein Comprehensive Cancer Center holds NCI Comprehensive designation, Albert Einstein College of Medicine delivers MD, PhD, and MD/PhD programs with $0 MD tuition funded by philanthropy, the system runs 850+ active clinical trials, and it receives approximately $200 million in annual NIH research funding. Recent scientific outputs include an FDA-approved therapy for myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) traceable to faculty research, new on-site CAR-T manufacturing capability via the Manny and Joanne Chirico Cellular Immunotherapy Laboratory, and a discovery of the TGF-β1 pathway mechanism in MDS.

The system's revenue model is that of a nonprofit academic health system: patient care services billed to commercial insurance, Medicare, and Medicaid dominate the top line, supplemented by NIH and foundation research funding, philanthropic support, and government and community benefit grants. The system explicitly provides care regardless of ability to pay and reports $1.3 billion in annual community benefits and investments. Distribution is direct-to-patient across the hospital and clinic footprint, supplemented by the largest school-based healthcare network in the United States (33 sites serving 75 schools), telehealth (including a GW/Pfizer-funded teledermatology program), community health worker programs, and a MyChart patient portal. Recent strategic actions include an expanded Amazon One Medical partnership in Westchester (June 2026), a Dandelion partnership for AI-driven drug development (October 2025), senior research leadership appointments, and an $8 million HERO Dads grant (May 2026). The organization has 10,000+ employees, maintains HIPAA and related healthcare compliance, and is governed by a Board of Trustees with no venture capital, private equity, or public ownership.
