3. What Do You Need to Plan?▶
Check only what applies. Each section unlocks below when selected.
4. Lab Strategy▶
First major infrastructure decision. Facility needs cascade from this choice.
Lab-ready space (e.g., Waterway Labs @ 16Tech, ICBI incubator) — $0 buildout cost. Lease cost (opex) + equipment purchase (capex) still apply.
Active Licensing
5. Pharmacy Strategy▶
Independent of lab decision. A company can have its own lab but outsource pharmacy, or vice versa.
Formulary Scope

Commission = Retail − Wholesale. Example: $299 retail − $174 wholesale = $125 commission/patient/mo.
6. Clinical / Prescribing▶
Third infrastructure fork — independent of lab and pharmacy.

In-House Transition Timeline
When does each capability move from outsource to in-house? Equipment capex is assigned to the transition year. Before transition: outsource opex. After: in-house opex.

10. Revenue Model▶
Primary Revenue Model
Membership Pricing
All lab tests included in membership. Rx handled via LegUpRx or outsource pharmacy commission. Non-FDA therapeutic compounds sold as add-on.
%

%
Rx Commission (via outsource pharmacy)
How many Rx compounds does each member purchase per month on average? Commission = (retail − wholesale) per compound.
Lab Tests (included in membership — cost tracking)
Lab tests are bundled into the membership fee. These inputs track the cost of delivering those tests so you can see true margins.
Lab Test Pricing
How many active patients, how many tests per visit, and how many visits per year?
Rx Pricing (disabled when using LegUpRx white-label — Rx revenue comes from commission)
Non-FDA Therapeutic Compounds (supplements, TCM, nutraceuticals)
Sold separately — not billed through insurance. Cash-pay / DTC model. Check the box to include a compound in the model.
