Pam Stout is the owner of Redline Health. With nearly two decades of experience, Pam has seen many challenges and struggles with customers in the insurance industry. Her passion is helping make a difference in her customers' lives by explaining healthcare options in laymen's terms, one individual or company at a time.

Pam enjoys making Medicare as easy to understand as riding a bike (or motorcycle, preferably). Engaging with others on a human level and keeping things fun and interesting is why Pam is so renowned across Northwest Arkansas with thousands of customers and organizations.

When Pam needed to purchase her first insurance plan outside of group benefits, she realized how overwhelming the insurance process can be. At the time, she was not given any education to help her decide on a plan to fit her family’s needs. She was simply told what plan to enroll in. THAT is why Pam decided to get into this business. She wanted it to be better. Better education and better service, while helping to provide people the ability to take control of their healthcare decisions.

Between kids, grandkids, work and riding, Pam would say life is a journey. Get out there and enjoy it!
