Ro Review

Pricing and plans

Ro prices the Body program in two parts. Membership runs $45 for the first month and $145 per month after that, covering clinical care, insurance work, and coaching. Brand GLP-1 medication is billed separately through your pharmacy or a cash program.

Cash route for Zepbound. When coverage fails, Ro routes members to LillyDirect for self-pay vials. Typical pricing falls between $349 and $499 per four-week supply. Higher maintenance doses can remain at $499 when you refill within 45 days; outside that window, pricing increases.

How brand pricing compares. Ro’s Wegovy explainer reminds members that retail cash prices for branded pens remain high, which is why the LillyDirect vial path appeals to many cash-pay patients.

How it works and timing

Complete the online intake, meet with a clinician, and receive a prescription if appropriate. Ro’s published timeline says you can begin in under a week when paying cash, or about two weeks when using insurance because of prior-authorization and pharmacy processing steps.

Availability signals. Ro maintains a public GLP-1 supply tracker that highlights which brand doses are widely available so you know what to expect before visiting the pharmacy.

Compounded medications

Ro’s model focuses on FDA-approved brands such as Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound, and Mounjaro. Compounded GLP-1s were once a shortage fallback, but now that the FDA lists those shortages as resolved, compounded options are tightly limited by federal and state rules as well as clinical appropriateness.

Privacy, pharmacy, and terms

Privacy. Ro publishes an updated Privacy Policy and Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy that outline how data is used and how to submit access or deletion requests.

Returns. Prescription medications are final sale, which is standard but important if a shipment has already been dispensed.

Terms to read. The terms of use include binding arbitration and a class-action waiver, so review them before you enroll if you are sensitive to dispute resolution clauses.
