A Career Built on Medicare Advocacy & Leadership
From Healthcare Innovation to Financial Planning to National Medicare Expertise
Mark Brownstein’s career spans healthcare, financial planning, and Medicare advisory. After nearly a decade in wealth management, he identified a critical gap—Medicare decisions were often misunderstood, overlooked, or disconnected from broader financial strategies.
His earlier experience leading a healthcare training and software company, combined with years as a Certified Senior Advisor (CSA®) and elder advocate, provided a unique foundation for understanding real-world client needs, regulatory complexities, and evolving plan options.
He later founded Emerald Medicare to deliver specialized, independent guidance with a clear focus: education first.
Today, Emerald Medicare serves thousands of clients nationwide, and Mark is widely recognized for his ability to translate complex Medicare concepts into clear, strategic guidance.
