What LONG ISLAND NEUROSURGICAL ASSOCIATES, P.C. does

Long Island Neurosurgical Associates, P.C. (LINA) is a New York-based professional medical corporation incorporated in 1973 that provides specialized neurosurgical care for pediatric and adult patients. The practice serves as the formal Division of Pediatric Neurosurgery at Cohen Children's Medical Center, part of the Northwell Health system, and operates from a primary office in New Hyde Park with limited satellite locations in Staten Island, Manhattan, and Smithtown. LINA is staffed by five board-certified neurosurgeons with complementary subspecialty expertise in pediatric brain tumors, surgical epilepsy, complex spine, craniofacial, and vascular neurosurgery, supported by two nurse practitioners and a practice administrator. Over its 50+ year history, 14 neurosurgeons have been part of the practice, all board-certified through the American Board of Neurological Surgery.

LINA's service portfolio spans the full range of pediatric and adult neurosurgical conditions, including congenital brain and spinal malformations, craniosynostosis, hydrocephalus, brain and spinal cord tumors, epilepsy, neurotrauma, vascular disorders, spasticity, and spinal deformities. The practice has built clinical differentiation around minimally invasive and image-guided surgical techniques — including endoscopic approaches, neuronavigation, intraoperative imaging, stereotactic planning, neurophysiologic monitoring, Gamma Knife radiosurgery, Laser Interstitial Thermal Therapy (LITT), stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) using the ROSA robotic platform, Responsive Neurostimulation (RNS), Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS), and Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS). A research program at the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research, directed by Dr. Schneider, develops immunotherapy strategies and liquid biopsy techniques for pediatric brain tumors, including a tumor banking initiative.

LINA generates revenue through professional services billing for consultations, diagnostic evaluations, surgical procedures, and follow-up care, with reimbursement drawn from commercial, Medicaid, and Medicare insurance networks in which the practice participates as an in-network provider. An in-house billing team manages revenue cycle operations, and single-case agreements are used for rare out-of-network situations. Patient acquisition is driven primarily by referrals from pediatricians, neurologists, and primary care physicians across the New York region, augmented by SEO-optimized condition content, a blog, organic social media (Instagram), and an online appointment request platform powered by Phreesia. The practice's business model is that of a mature, high-reputation specialty professional services firm embedded within a major health system rather than a venture-backed growth company.
