I have no experience with this as I haven't been to Italy yet. But I was researching the Roma Pass and it said that it wasn't including the Borghese Gallery at the moment.

I recall multiple posts referring to making telephone calls, but--not having been through the process myself--I can't say for sure that's the only way to handle it. I'd be surprised if RS doesn't include a more detailed statement somehere in that book.

As of September 1 2019. The Rome Pass entrance to the Galleria Borghese is temporarily suspended. Full price ticket is 12€.
Here are the other sites you can visit with the Pass.

Hey Guys Thanks for so quickly responding to my Borghese Gallery admission question. Saved me a long distance phone call. I really appreciate the update that the Roma Pass entrance was closed this month.

Glenn, as I'm sure this change also occurred after that book went to press, you now must make a timed-entry reservation for Colosseum if using the Roma Pass. The FAQ page of the pass website has details for how to do that (See 7.1 under "Reservations")

Just thought I'd mention it in case you were thinking about using the pass for that one.
