Granting for Good: Sanofi’s Rare Humanitarian Program

In Partnership with:

For 35 years, Sanofi’s Rare Humanitarian Program has delivered therapies to over 4,000 patients across 110+ countries who would otherwise have no access to treatment. Hear from our experts on the operational innovations and human-centered design that cut approval timelines from weeks to 36 hours, reached new markets like Uganda, and maintained compliance at global scale. Attendees who run or oversee access programs will leave with concrete frameworks, lessons learned, and proof that modernization can accelerate impact without sacrificing integrity.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

1. Describe how the Sanofi Rare Humanitarian Program operates and explain the six-step process (Submission, Medical Review, Operational Review, Decision, Shipment, Treatment) enabling rapid patient access across 70+ countries.
2. Understand how technology platforms streamline medical grantmaking workflows — from weeks of manual processing to approvals under 36 hours — while maintaining compliance and governance.
3. Identify strategies for designing physician-centric humanitarian programs that balance HCP simplicity with operational compliance, change management, and patient-level impact measurement.
4. Recognize the operational and strategic outcomes of modernized medical grantmaking, including tracking patient milestones, measuring impact across disease areas, and scaling access across diverse global markets.
