Inc.

Who We Are
We believe that quality pharmacy care is so much more than simple prescription fulfillment. Many of today’s consumers rely on their pharmacist to be a trusted source of medical and pharmaceutical information. By leveraging today’s technology, we offer a holistic and integrated approach to pharmacy patient care that combines telepharmacy services, prescription counseling, prescription delivery, and a digital e-commerce platform to meet the pharmaceutical and healthcare needs of underserved communities.
As a leading provider of telepharmacy services, we provide a pharmacy patient care lifeline to those living in urban communities and rural areas without access to a neighborhood drugstore – “pharmacy deserts”. Our unique business model is able to profitably serve this market by leveraging technology through our innovative hub and spoke model.
Our team is focused on one goal: promoting patient health and wellness in underserved communities.
Who We Serve
We currently provide personalized, quality pharmacy care to more than 175,000 customers in urban communities and rural areas in four states.
There is no pharmacy within reach for many Americans living in similar markets, either because the locally owned pharmacy has shuttered, or a traditional chain pharmacy has moved out of the area.
These individuals live in what is known as a “Pharmacy Desert”.
Like “food deserts”, where it is difficult to buy affordable or good-quality fresh food, “pharmacy deserts” exist in communities lacking ready access to prescription medications and pharmacy advice. In fact, recent research indicates there may be nearly 100 million Americans without sufficient access to a nearby neighborhood pharmacy.
Without this access, residents in these communities face significant obstacles in obtaining vital prescription medications and accessing much-needed information relating to drug interactions, dosage, and potential side effects.

The OneroRX telepharmacy advantage
Similar to a virtual doctor visit, a telepharmacy consultation utilizes video conferencing technology via mobile phone, tablet or computer to provide essential pharmacy services at the customer’s convenience.
Through a virtual connection to our licensed pharmacists or pharmacy technicians, we offer personalized pharmacy patient care and counseling in an efficient and cost-effective manner.
We also offer in-person consultation, where patients can speak directly with a pharmacy technician or connect via video conference with one of our licensed pharmacists.
Following an in-person or video pharmacy consultation, patient prescriptions can be picked up on-site or delivered.
Virtual Consultation

- Cost-effective solution for managing overhead
- No proprietary technology needed; connect via video conferencing
- Ability to provide pharmacy care to underserved communities
Personalized Care
- Convenient pharmacy consultation at patient’s home or on-site
- Free prescription delivery or on-site pickup
- Telepharmacy site and pharmacy technician in the local community and available to answer questions on-site
At OneroRX, we promote patient health and wellness through a holistic integrated approach to pharmacy patient care.
Long-term prescription usage can cause chronic health problems. And for some patients, pharmacologic treatments may lead to drug-induced nutrient depletion, a potentially serious health condition requiring dietary supplements to restore nutrient deficiencies.
Our licensed pharmacists and pharmacy technicians consider our patients’ health in a holistic manner, reviewing the safety and efficacy of current medications and recommending the most appropriate course of therapy. For patients taking multiple prescriptions, supplementary dietary and wellness products may be indicated to prevent nutrient deficiencies. To address this often-underdiagnosed need, we provide nutrients, supplements, and health and beauty aids through our digital e-commerce ecosystem.
Holistic patient care also takes into consideration the physical supplies patients need. At OneroRx, we aim to add convenience for our patients and improve medication adherence.
Our licensed pharmacists and pharmacy technicians consider our patients’ health in a holistic manner, reviewing the complete needs for each prescription medication, and medical condition. From diabetic testing strips to insulin coolers, bandages to crutches, we offer complete medical supply needs through our digital e-commerce ecosystem.

A native of Leland, Iowa, Branstad was elected three times to the Iowa House of Representatives, as Iowa’s lieutenant governor in 1978, and as Iowa’s youngest governor in 1983. As the state’s chief executive and longest serving governor from 1983 to 1999, Governor Branstad weathered some of Iowa’s worst economic turmoil during the farm crisis of the 1980s, while helping lead the state’s resurgence to a booming economy in the 1990s.
At the end of his tenure, Iowa enjoyed record employment, an unprecedented $900 million budget surplus, and the enactment of historic government overhauls that led to greater efficiencies in state government. As a result of Governor Branstad’s hands-on, round-the- clock approach to economic development, Iowa’s unemployment rate went from 8.5 percent when he took office to a record low 2.5 percent when he left office in 1999. Following his four terms as governor, Branstad served as president of Des Moines University (DMU). During his 6-year tenure, he was able to grow the university into a world-class educational facility and send its graduates to offer health care in all 50 U.S. sates while also becoming the first college in the U.S. to receive the Platinum Level of Recognition from the Wellness Council of America.
In October of 2009, sensing a need for change in the way state government operates and wanting to “lead Iowa’s comeback,” Branstad retired from DMU and was re-elected governor in 2010.
During his second tenure as Iowa governor from 2010 to 2017, Governor Branstad signed historic investments in Iowa’s infrastructure into law, including Iowa’s roads and bridges, as well as the innovative Connect Every Acre Plan that expanded high-speed broadband internet to Iowa’s agriculture industry, schools, businesses and homes.
On December 7, 2016, Governor Branstad announced that he had accepted the nomination from President-elect Donald Trump to serve as Ambassador of the United States to the People’s Republic of China. He was sworn in as Ambassador on May 24, 2017.
Ambassador Branstad served as U.S. Ambassador to China during one of the most challenging periods in recent U.S.-China history since the two countries re-established diplomatic relations in 1979. Under his leadership during unprecedented crises including the COVID-19 outbreak and the Chinese government’s closure of the U.S. Consulate in Chengdu, Ambassador Branstad led the largest drawdown of a single diplomatic mission in U.S. State Department history while evacuating over 1,300 staff members from China. He also created the Personal Protective Equipment for America Taskforce, which delivered 5,000 tons of urgently needed medical supplies to the U.S. to combat COVID-19.
During his tenure, Ambassador Branstad’s two greatest achievements were the signing of the historic Phase One Trade Agreement between the U.S. and China in January of 2020 and successfully lobbying the Chinese government to stem the flow of fentanyl into America. The Phase One Trade deal secured $200 billion in Chinese commitments to purchase U.S. goods and services in the agriculture, manufacturing, energy, and other sectors, achieved stricter enforcement of Intellectual Property protections, and opened up China’s restrictive financial sector to U.S. banks and other financial services companies. Moreover, the Chinese government’s decision to schedule fentanyl as a controlled substance in May of 2019 virtually stopped fentanyl shipments into the U.S., saving thousands of American lives.
In addition to serving as U.S. Ambassador, Branstad has also served as the Co-Chair of the Council of Governors appointed by President Barack Obama, as Commissioner and Chairman respectively of the White House Fellows Program and Commission for Excellence in Special Education appointed by President George W. Bush, and as Trustee of the Harry S. Truman Scholarship Foundation appointed by President Ronald Reagan.
Branstad received a B.A. from The University of Iowa and a J.D. from Drake University Law School. Of the many factors behind his continued success in politics, academia, and the non- profit and corporate board worlds, Ambassador Branstad has always stuck to one personal mantra he often repeats, “Tough times never last, but tough people do.”

Our Strategy
Our disciplined growth strategy combines the scalable advantages of regional hub-and-spoke telepharmacy networks with leverageable and cost-efficient telepharmacy services. Our deliberate approach targets areas overlooked or abandoned by traditional large pharmacy chains, providing much-needed patient care in rural areas and urban communities that lack a local pharmacy.
To build and expand our hub-and-spoke networks of telepharmacies, we identify and acquire profitable independent pharmacies in underserved markets with favorable telepharmacy regulations.
We specifically seek to establish our presence in communities with access to a local health provider without a traditional chain pharmacy. We prefer to locate our telepharmacies in areas with proximity to physicians and employer workspaces, as these locations typically offer a steady stream of pharmacy-specific patients that initially utilize our services out of necessity and subsequently become our long-term patients.
Staffed by a licensed pharmacist, a hub site in our network serves as a centralized location to fill prescriptions, counsel patients, and supervise pharmacy technicians in our spoke locations. This model allows us to spread the cost of a pharmacist over multiple telepharmacies, generating significant savings with no compromise to patient care.
Our digital e-commerce platform complements our telepharmacy services by providing dietary supplements, nutrients, medical supplies, and health and beauty products that promote patient health and wellness.
