What belongs on the board?
Three lines, written where the desk can see them. Open callbacks older than the clock you set. Provider changes for the day: who is in, who is out, which visits moved. Coverage: who is on the phone, who is at the window, and who is the backup through lunch.
That is the agenda. Do not add birthday announcements or a tour of the portal. If a clinical question comes up, write the name of the clinician who owns it and move on. The desk routes. It does not decide.
How does this connect to the handoff?
The night before, the shift handoff already listed what was still open. The huddle is the morning read of that list, out loud, with the people who will actually touch it. The full matrix is on handoffs and escalation. Callback rules are on missed calls.

Use initials only if you must, and prefer a count.
Questions people ask
Who runs the huddle?
The practice manager, or the named backup when the manager is out. It is not a job-seeker exercise and it is not optional on a busy morning.
What if it runs long?
Stop at 10 minutes. Park anything that needs a longer talk. The point is that the desk starts the day with one list, not a new meeting.
