Welcome to Bird Dog Insurance Group! Hi, my name is Sabrina Stanga. I am the Owner and Broker of Bird Dog Insurance Group. I am a mom of four beautiful daughters. I spend my free time serving my family as a chauffeur, grocery shopper, house empress wielding laundry and meals. As a professional, I my time helping others through difficult times and protecting others prepare themselves for when life catches up with tragedy, illness or death.
I enjoy freelance marketing and fitness, specifically, weightlifting. I owned a fitness center for 6 years, named Chelsea Family Fitness, in Chelsea, AL. I enjoyed growing my business and developing lasting relationships with my customers. Sadly, after 6 years, COVID hit our beautiful planet and my fitness center could not survive the government-mandated closures nor fear my customers had instilled in them by the numerous healthcare and government organizations.
I moved on, begrudgingly and developed new hobbies and advanced my existing professional skill sets.
As a side hustle, I sell Flight Conditioned Northern Bob White Quail. I still hit the gym with friends to maintain physical and mental health.
The Insurance Industry was something I used to look at as a necessary evil with respect to healthcare and protection for my family. Ironically, after the pandemic, I decided to become an insurance agent. Being an insurance agent has afforded me the freedom to take care of my four daughters while still providing me the sense of entrepreneurship I live for. Insurance, healthcare finance and helping people is rewarding.
I spent 20 years in healthcare finance, administration and care management. I watched it change into what it is today; I am not impressed by how it is administered currently. There is lack of access to healthcare despite the 2010 Affordable Care Act (ACA), aka Obama Care. Since the ACA legislation, there has been a 58% increase in health insurance premium cost and increased out-of-pocket medical bills after insurance has paid or denied your claims. Doctors are owned by hospitals, nurses are overworked, and medications have replaced healthy lifestyles. Seniors are forced to budget their life around insurance cost, medications or sacrifice daily needs.
My last frustrating stint in healthcare was shortly after the COVID Pandemic. I returned to Home Health and Hospice for a short period. After being a business owner from 2015-2021, I saw effects of change to healthcare from ACA and COVID and decided I had to put my energy, efforts and passion elsewhere.
Since April 2021, I have been an independent contractor for Life and Health Insurance. I decided to take the plunge and open an agency with products that, in my opinion, are better suited for business owners and working-class Americans.
My heart is always warmed when talking with senior citizens. They have always taught me so much about the old-fashioned traditional ways of life. I strongly believe in the saying, "If it's not broke, don't fix it". However, our current health plan is broken! If it's not breaking you, your employer is paying the inflated cost, or the government is subsidizing it and furthering our country into irreparable debt. Let's take back our hard-earned money from the broken system and get back to a righteous health insurance plan.
I pay a premium, I access the services I need from the providers that I trust, and they get paid. Welcome to Bird Dog Insurance Group! I'm here to help you NAVIGATE healthcare and health insurance rodeo in the New Era, POST-OBAMACARE.
Stay Healthy, Friends.
