We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes introductory paragraph about Northwestern Medicine, then "Job Description" etc. We need to use for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections when posting has real specific content.
We need to preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate like EEO, background check, AI disclosure, application instructions, etc. Also remove duplicated lines.
We need to include schedule: they gave "Schedule: M-F, 4x10s days (day off TBD), with future potential to include occasional weekends; no nights/on-call". That's specific, so include Schedule section.
Benefits: they mention "We pride ourselves on providing competitive benefits: from tuition reimbursement and loan forgiveness to 401(k) matching and lifecycle benefits". Also later "Benefits We offer a wide range of benefits...". So we have benefits content. Include Benefits section.
Pay: not mentioned. So omit Pay section.
Skills: not explicit separate list; maybe we can include under Responsibilities or Qualifications. But we should not create Skills unless specific content. Probably omit.
Qualifications: they have "Qualifications Required:" list. Also "Preferred: 2 years of APP experience". So include Qualifications section.
Responsibilities: they have duties and responsibilities list after "The following duties and responsibilities are included, but not limited to:" plus Essential Functions and Additional Responsibilities. We'll combine into Responsibilities section.
About the role: we have introductory paragraph about Northwestern Medicine and the role description before Job Description. Could be About the role. We'll include that.
We must not repeat job title as heading. The job title is "Advanced Practice Provider (APP)". Not to be used as heading.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
We'll structure:

We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to ensure we preserve all substantive info: The introductory paragraph includes: "At Northwestern Medicine, every patient interaction makes a difference in cultivating a positive workplace. This patient-first approach is what sets us apart as a leader in the healthcare industry. As an integral part of our team, you'll have the opportunity to join our quest for better health care, no matter where you work within the Northwestern Medicine system. We pride ourselves on providing competitive benefits: from tuition reimbursement and loan forgiveness to 401(k) matching and lifecycle benefits, our goal is to take care of our employees. Ready to join our quest for better?" That's about benefits too but we already have Benefits section. Might duplicate but okay. We also have after that: "Job Description Northwestern Medicine has an exciting opportunity for an Advanced Practice Provider (APP) to join our nationally ranked Comprehensive Stroke Center team at Northwestern Memorial Hospital. The APP will provide comprehensive clinical management for patients on the inpatient stroke services (no ICU). The APP will be an integral part of the inpatient stroke team that is comprised of the on-service attending, stroke fellows, residents and medical students. This role supports high-quality, evidence-based acute stroke care by providing direct patient management of hospitalized patients on the primary and stroke consult services." That's part of About the role or Responsibilities? Could be About the role. We'll include in About the role paragraph. We need to ensure we don't include "Job Description" heading. Now list duties: - Provide direct patient care for individuals admitted to the primary stroke service, including assessment, diagnosis, treatment planning, and ongoing management - Flex to support stroke consult services as needed based on patient volume and program priorities, including running inpatient stroke codes - Assist with management of medically complex stroke patients - Lead efforts on efficient patient throughput, including admissions, transfers, and discharges - Assist the team by coordinating consults, multidisciplinary care, and discharge planning - Ensure smooth transitions of care across inpatient and outpatient settings - Ensure accurate documentation and adherence to stroke protocols to support accreditation - Participate in quality improvement initiatives related to stroke care outcomes and compliance - Collaborate with our interdisciplinary team which includes attendings, fellows and residents Essential Functions list is long; many bullet points. We need to include them? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should include all essential functions and additional responsibilities as part of Responsibilities. That is a lot but we can include them as list items. We need to avoid duplication: Some items repeat earlier duties. But we must preserve all; we can include them but maybe deduplicate identical lines? The instruction says remove duplicated lines. So we should remove duplicate bullet points that appear elsewhere. Let's extract essential functions list: - Demonstrates clinical expertise and expanded knowledge through patient care activities which may include diagnosis and management of a wide range of health problems. - Responsible for health outcome of an assigned patient population. - Confers with collaborating physician and other health professionals in area of clinical expertise. - Develops appropriate educational systems for patients, families and staff in areas of expertise. - Mentors graduate students in aspects of advanced practice and patient care. - Actively participates in quality improvement and/or research pertinent to area of expertise. - Conducts comprehensive appraisals of patients' health status by taking health histories and performing physical examinations in clinical area. - Provides direct clinical care to patients. - Prescribes/orders medications, therapies; orders/interprets laboratory tests, x-rays and procedures according to clinical privileges. - Evaluates patients to determine their need for further health care. - Provides comprehensive teaching to patients and families. - Documents in the medical record all care and education provided and/or procedures performed for which the Licensed Advanced Practice Provider is responsible. - Refers to other disciplines as appropriate. - Consultant to other disciplines in areas of expertise. - Integrates research based knowledge and clinical expertise in decision making. - Exemplifies a professional image in appearance, manner and presentation. - Advocate for patients, families, coworkers, and the community. - Maintains certifications and continuing education as required for licensure and privileging. - Serves as a patient advocate and role model for "Patients First". - Participates in unit/departmental/divisional or hospital committees/task forces as appropriate. - Provides comprehensive teaching strategies for patients and their families. - Develops and participates in programs to meet continuing education needs of staff. - Serves as a role model and preceptor to students. - Provides formal education to both internal and external groups pertinent to area of specialty. - Participates in quality improvement and/or research initiatives for specific patient population as appropriate. Additional Responsibilities: Actually the list above seems to be the essential functions; there is also "Additional Responsibilities:" heading but the list continues? The text after "Essential Functions:" includes many bullet points; then "Additional Responsibilities:" then repeats many of same? Let's see: After essential functions list, there is "Additional Responsibilities:" then repeats many items: Conducts comprehensive appraisals..., Provides direct clinical care..., Prescribes/orders..., etc. It looks like duplication. We need to remove duplicated lines. So we should keep unique items. Thus we will compile a set of unique responsibilities from the combined lists (the initial duties list, essential functions, additional responsibilities). We'll deduplicate. Let's list all unique items: From initial duties list: 1. Provide direct patient care for individuals admitted to the primary stroke service, including assessment, diagnosis, treatment planning, and ongoing management 2. Flex to support stroke consult services as needed based on patient volume and program priorities, including running inpatient stroke codes 3. Assist with management of medically complex stroke patients 4. Lead efforts on efficient patient throughput, including admissions, transfers, and discharges 5. Assist the team by coordinating consults, multidisciplinary care, and discharge planning 6. Ensure smooth transitions of care across inpatient and outpatient settings 7. Ensure accurate documentation and adherence to stroke protocols to support accreditation 8. Participate in quality improvement initiatives related to stroke care outcomes and compliance 9. Collaborate with our interdisciplinary team which includes attendings, fellows and residents From essential functions list (unique not already covered): - Demonstrates clinical expertise and expanded knowledge through patient care activities which may include diagnosis and management of a wide range of health problems. - Responsible for health outcome of an assigned patient population. - Confers with collaborating physician and other health professionals in area of clinical expertise. - Develops appropriate educational systems for patients, families and staff in areas of expertise. - Mentors graduate students in aspects of advanced practice and patient care. - Actively participates in quality improvement and/or research pertinent to area of expertise. - Conducts comprehensive appraisals of patients' health status by taking health histories and performing physical examinations in clinical area. - Provides direct clinical care to patients.

We'll keep.) - Prescribes/orders medications, therapies; orders/interprets laboratory tests, x-rays and procedures according to clinical privileges. - Evaluates patients to determine their need for further health care. - Provides comprehensive teaching to patients and families. - Documents in the medical record all care and education provided and/or procedures performed for which the Licensed Advanced Practice Provider is responsible. - Refers to other disciplines as appropriate. - Consultant to other disciplines in areas of expertise. - Integrates research based knowledge and clinical expertise in decision making. - Exemplifies a professional image in appearance, manner and presentation. - Advocate for patients, families, coworkers, and the community. - Maintains certifications and continuing education as required for licensure and privileging. - Serves as a patient advocate and role model for "Patients First". - Participates in unit/departmental/divisional or hospital committees/task forces as appropriate. - Provides comprehensive teaching strategies for patients and their families.

We'll keep both to be safe.) - Develops and participates in programs to meet continuing education needs of staff. - Serves as a role model and preceptor to students. - Provides formal education to both internal and external groups pertinent to area of specialty. - Participates in quality improvement and/or research initiatives for specific patient population as appropriate.
