Revolutionary medications
Ozempic, Saxenda, and Wegovy are GLP-1 medications that may be prescribed for weight loss if appropriate. It’s a recurring shot that works by mimicking your body’s natural hormones, helping you feel fuller faster and for longer.
Medication is not included in the cost of the Body Program. But don’t worry, our insurance concierge partners explore all options to help get you covered.
Saxenda and Wegovy are FDA-approved for weight loss. Ozempic is FDA-approved for type 2 diabetes treatment, but may be prescribed for weight loss.
In Wegovy clinical trials, patients lost an average of 15% of their body weight*
"Is using medication to lose weight cheating?"
Dr. Steve Silvestro, Ro
Which GLP-1 is right for you?
Semaglutide injection was first approved under the brand name Ozempic in 2017 as a treatment for type 2 diabetes. In 2021, the FDA approved the drug at a different dosage under the brand name Wegovy as a weight loss medication. Doctors often, using their medical judgment and discretion, prescribe both for weight loss. Liraglutide injection was FDA approved for weight loss in 2014 under the brand name Saxenda.
All three medications are GLP-1s, but there are some key differences between them.
*Patients without diabetes but with a BMI of ≥30, or ≥27 with comorbidities, lost an average of 15% of their body weight in 1 year in a 68-week clinical trial evaluating 2.4 mg semaglutide, when combined with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.

Weight loss FAQs
How much does the Ro Body membership cost?
The Ro Body membership costs $45 for your first month, then $145 thereafter.
Please note that the cost of GLP-1 medication is not included in the membership cost. Medication cost will depend on your treatment and personal insurance coverage.
Will my insurance cover my GLP-1 medication?
Ro’s insurance concierge will work with your insurance provider to determine coverage for your GLP-1 medication. Please note that this medication is paid for separately from your Ro Body membership, which is only available by cash pay only and does not accept insurance.
Currently, Ro can’t help coordinate coverage for GLP-1 medications for government insurance plans — but depending on your plan, you may still be able to pay out of pocket for certain cash-pay medication options. If you have Federal Employee Health Benefits Program (FEHB), you can join the Ro Body membership and access our insurance concierge.
How much does metabolic testing cost?
If your provider orders a metabolic health test, testing at any Quest location is included in the cost of the Ro Body membership. Or you can purchase an at-home blood collection kit through Ro for $75.
If you live in a state where Quest is not available, we’ll automatically send you an at-home collection kit for no charge.
What if my insurance doesn’t cover the medication?
If for some reason your insurance will not cover the cost of your medication, you’ll have the option to either select from cash pay medication options or you can cancel your Ro Body membership at any time.
What can I expect after I sign up?
After you complete your online visit, a Ro-affiliated healthcare provider will review your answers and determine whether treatment may be right for you.
