MAP has extensive partnerships with leading health plans across the country that represent over 67 million total covered lives.
“There’s an unprecedented need for substance abuse and behavioral health treatment in the United States right now,” said MAP Health Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Jacob Levenson. “We’re excited to use Espresso’s funding to execute our growth strategy so that we can further expand our offerings, provide our patients with the comprehensive services they need, and ultimately keep them engaged across the entire care continuum.”
Levenson founded MAP Health in 2011 and has more than 20 years of experience in the addiction treatment space. The Levenson family has also been active in the addiction treatment space for three decades, having helped to treat over 100,000 people through their involvement in various organizations.
