At one hospital here in Nashville, TN, they cut back on the number of
reception desks. The two primary entrances have desks with someone seated
at them. Three other entrances have an unstaffed desk, with a webcam and a
telephone.

Wow. Is the doctor 15km away too? :-)
The tag applies .. the place a visitor goes to for info etc
So yes... it is not about the 'desk' that is used to separate it from
weeding reception, GPS reception, etc.
I'll have to make that clear in the tag! The name is the best I could come
up with. Not too late to change it if someone has a better name?

Note on the distance to the Doctor .. here in Australia 'we' have the Royal
Flying Doctor Service (RFDS) ..
the Doctor can be 1,000 km away, not far in a fast plane.
