Quick verdict
LifeMD is the better pick for most patients on overall scoring. Mature publicly-traded telehealth with rare direct-supply deals from both Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly. Reasonable $79/mo membership floor, intro Wegovy/Ozempic at $199 for first two fills, and Zepbound vials from $349. Insurance navigation included. Money-back guarantee if member doesn't lose 10%+ in a year.
That said, Ro Body wins on specific dimensions. Ro is the program for patients who want the cleanest interface and don't care about compounded options. They exited compounded in 2025 and now route exclusively through Lilly and Novo branded fulfillment.
