Lenox Hill Hospital

What Lenox Hill Hospital does

Lenox Hill Hospital is a 652-bed acute care hospital located at 100 East 77th Street in Manhattan's Upper East Side, founded in 1857 and operated as part of the nonprofit Northwell Health system (a 501(c)(3) organization). The hospital provides comprehensive inpatient and outpatient services across cancer care, heart and lung care, neurosurgery, orthopedics, obstetrics and gynecology, internal medicine, sports medicine, and otolaryngology/head and neck surgery, and it operates a 24/7 emergency department that has historically included ambulance services in Upper Manhattan. Lenox Hill is integrated with affiliated facilities including Manhattan Eye, Ear & Throat Hospital (MEETH) and Northwell Greenwich Village Hospital, and it sits within the broader Northwell Health network of hospitals, outpatient locations, and physician practices across the New York metropolitan area.

The hospital's clinical offerings are credentialed by multiple external bodies: Magnet designation from the American Nurses Credentialing Center, Commission on Cancer accreditation across 34 key performance areas, and the Society of Thoracic Surgeons' highest rating for thoracic surgery and lung cancer outcomes. Lenox Hill has been ranked by U.S. News & World Report for orthopedics and other specialties, named among Newsweek's 'America's Best Cancer Hospitals' in 2024, and recognized among the World's Best Specialized Hospitals for neurosurgery. It has also gained international visibility through the Netflix documentary series 'Lenox Hill' and 'Emergency NYC', and is connected to the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research, a Northwell research entity producing clinical publications (e.g., a 2025 study on neuromodulation outcomes in treatment-resistant focal epilepsy showing significant seizure reduction in roughly 70% of patients).

Commercially, the hospital generates revenue from patient care billed predominantly to a wide range of commercial insurance plans (including Aetna, Anthem/Empire BCBS, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, EmblemHealth, Healthfirst, Fidelis, Metroplus, and ConnectiCare) and government programs (Medicare and Medicaid). Services are accessed through direct admissions, emergency intake, scheduled appointments, and the Northwell Health Physician Partners referral network. Procedure-level pricing is not publicly disclosed, though the hospital maintains price transparency tooling and a machine-readable pricing file in line with regulatory requirements.
