Initial capital and containment-modification costs are moderate (~$749k one-time) driven by lab buildout, specialized bariatric equipment, and contingency reserves; annual operating costs are substantial (~$710.8k/yr) driven primarily by dedicated medical/security staffing and ongoing research/monitoring. Major episodic surgical or escalation events can add several hundred thousand dollars in a single year.

📋 Confidence Notes
Detailed clinical, equipment, and research line-items allow a medium-confidence estimate, but major uncertainties remain around amnestic drug pricing/regimen, research intensity, and whether existing site infrastructure reduces upfront costs.
