Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate (cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc). Also remove duplicated lines and application instructions. Must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. The posting includes schedule: typical work schedule Monday-Friday 8 hour shifts 7am-6pm, with Saturday rotation required. So schedule section is present. Benefits: they list many benefits: employer-paid medical coverage, optional dental, vision, life, AD&D, disability, PTO accruals, paid holidays, wellness, childcare, tuition assistance, defined-benefit pension, voluntary retirement plans, employer-paid life and reduced salary protection programs.

Qualifications maybe overlapping; but we can combine? The instruction says use headings for those categories if content exists. We have Education, Licenses and Certifications, Other Requirements (required abilities, preferred). Could put under Requirements. Could also have Qualifications separate if we have content. But we can just have Requirements covering education, licensure, other requirements. Skills: maybe we can extract from responsibilities? But we have no explicit skills list; we could omit Skills section if no specific content. Responsibilities: we have detailed responsibilities broken into subcategories: Clinical Assessment..., Patient Education..., Procedure Knowledge..., Professional Practice..., Other Requirements? Actually Other Requirements is separate. We'll put responsibilities under Responsibilities heading.

We must not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep specifics like "Complete histories and physicals and pre-procedure assessments specific to interventional radiology procedures", etc. We'll need to format as - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For prose, use
. So we need to decide what is a list vs prose. The responsibilities are enumerated as paragraphs with bold headings? In source they are paragraphs with headings like "Clinical Assessment, Documentation & Patient Management". We could treat each bullet as a list item under Responsibilities. But the instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. So we need to decide if we treat each responsibility as list items. Probably yes: duties are a list. So we will create
- for each duty item. However the source includes subheadings within responsibilities; we could keep them as part of the list item text. That's fine.
Similarly for Requirements: we have Education, Licenses and Certifications, Other Requirements (required abilities, preferred). We'll make a list.
Benefits: list.
Pay: we have salary range; could be a list or prose. Probably list: Minimum Salary, Midpoint, Maximum.
Schedule: we have typical work schedule Monday-Friday 8 hour shifts 7am-6pm, with Saturday rotation required. Could be prose or list. We'll do list.
We must not include headings with empty content. So we will include About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Possibly also Qualifications? Not needed if we put qualifications under Requirements. Skills: none.
Now we need to ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. The job title is "Advanced Practice Provider (APRN or PA)" maybe. We'll not include that.
We must output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
