πŸ” What's the difference?

Case Admins
Admins are responsible for setting up and managing the case. They have full visibility, can add/remove users, and lead coordination. In transplant workflows, this role is often filled by transplant coordinators.

Case Followers
Followers are users like surgeons, physicians, OR staff, and HLA who need visibility into a case but don’t require full admin privileges. They receive updates relevant to their roles and can participate in selected group conversations.
