We need to decide how to structure each section.

Pay
Pay Rate: Min - $31.50 | Max - $42.31
We need to ensure we don't duplicate content: The skills are subset of Required Qualifications; if we list them also in Requirements, we would duplicate. The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." It doesn't forbid duplication, but better to avoid duplication. However we need to include all substantive info; if we put skills only in Skills section and not in Requirements, we would lose the other required qualifications (like High School Graduate/GED, 2 years experience, etc). So we need to keep those in Requirements. Skills section can be separate but we must not duplicate the skill lines; we could either move skill lines to Skills and remove them from Requirements, but then we lose them from Requirements. Better to keep them in Requirements and not have a separate Skills section, unless we can rephrase? But we must not invent or summarize away detail; we could keep them in Requirements and not have Skills section. The instruction says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe we should not create a Skills section if it would be thin (just a few items) and we already have Requirements covering them. So we can omit Skills section.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications (Preferred), Pay.
Check if we need to include Physical Requirements. Where to put? Could be part of Requirements or a separate section? There's no heading for Physical Requirements in allowed list. Could we put under Requirements? It's not exactly a qualification but a requirement. Could be included in Requirements as bullet points. The instruction: "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It doesn't forbid other headings, but says use those for section headings. It implies we should use those headings when appropriate. Physical Requirements could be considered part of Requirements. So we can include physical requirements under Requirements as bullet points.
Thus Requirements will include: education/experience, customer service skills, computer literacy, communication skills, ability to establish relationships, ability to multitask, plus physical requirements list.
Qualifications will include Preferred Qualifications: previous experience in an acute care setting.
Now we need to ensure we preserve all substantive info: Position Summary, Essential Job Functions, Required Qualifications (including physical), Preferred Qualifications, Pay Rate.
Let's extract the exact text.
Position Summary:
"The Discharge Coordinator, under the direction of the Case Manager, coordinates post-acute patient level of care needs (SNF’s, Sub Acute, LTACH, Home Health Agencies, DME, etc) to facilitate a safe discharge of hospital patients, including barrier patients, to the appropriate setting, assuring continuity of care. Notifies receiving facility of insurance information as needed. Responds effectively to questions and concerns expressed by patients and other staff and resolves identified problems.
