for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says "e.g." meaning those are examples, but we should use those headings when appropriate. It says "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So we should limit to those headings? Probably we should use those headings only. It says "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." That suggests we can use those headings; maybe we can also use others if needed? But likely they want us to map content to those headings. For example, "About the role" could include agency description and position overview. "Responsibilities" for duties. "Requirements" maybe for minimum qualifications? "Qualifications" for preferred qualifications? "Skills" maybe for specific skills. "Benefits", "Pay", "Schedule". We need to decide.
We must not repeat the job title as a heading. The page already shows it. So we don't add a heading for the title.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to embed details within appropriate sections.

We must remove application instructions, so we omit "Job Application Process", "Required Documents", "Helpful Resources", "How To Claim Veterans Preference", "How To Claim Disability Hiring Preference", etc. Also remove EEO boilerplate at end.
We need to keep substantive info like Veterans' Preference Eligible, Sponsorship, etc.
Now decide headings.
We could have:
About the role
- includes agency description and position overview (who can apply, classification, schedule, benefits eligibility, veterans preference, sponsorship, compensation, benefits). Might be too broad but okay.
Responsibilities
- list of duties.
Requirements
- maybe minimum qualifications and licensing.
Qualifications
- preferred qualifications and skills.
Skills
- maybe specific skills like statistical analysis, GIS, etc. But we already have qualifications.
Alternatively we could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one? But instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications (covering both minimum and preferred), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. That's 6 sections.
But we need to include Pay and Schedule sections if posting actually states them. Yes, posting states Pay Range and Work Schedule. So we need separate Pay and Schedule sections.
Benefits also stated.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We must not include empty sections.
Now we need to format content.
Use for each heading.
Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits.
Use
for prose.
We must not repeat job title as heading.
We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers as headings.
We must preserve all substantive information.
Let's extract details.
About the role content:
- Agency description: Kansas Department of Health and Environment: led by Secretary Janet Stanek, appointed by Gov. Kelly Dec 2021. KDHE comprised of three divisions: Public Health, Environment, Health Care Finance (includes Medicaid KanCare). Only agency in nation to have these three entities under one roof which allows us to take a holistic approach to improving and protecting the health and well-being of all Kansans.
- Verification of identity and employment eligibility to work in the United States is required by federal law. For a list of acceptable documents that establish these criteria, please refer to the federal Form I-9.
- KDHE does not provide sponsorships for this position.
- E-Verify: Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) participates in E-Verify and will provide the federal government with your I-9 information to confirm that you are authorized to work in the U.S. For additional information regarding E-Verify, please click here.

But note: The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The E-Verify and IER links might be considered legal? Possibly they are part of compliance but maybe we keep as it's substantive? The instruction says remove legal boilerplate. E-Verify and IER might be considered legal compliance. However they are specific to the position? Might be considered boilerplate. Safer to remove them? The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. So we should remove the E-Verify and IER lines as they are legal boilerplate. Also the link to kdhe.ks.gov maybe navigation? Might be considered navigation. Safer to remove.
Thus About the role will include agency description, who can apply, classification, schedule, benefits eligibility, veterans preference, sponsorship, compensation, benefits.
But we have separate sections for Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So About the role could include agency description, who can apply, classification, maybe sponsorship, veterans preference? But veterans preference is a separate piece; could be included in About the role or maybe we could put in Qualifications? It's more about eligibility. I'd keep in About the role.
Now we need to avoid duplication: we will not repeat benefits details in About the role if we have a Benefits section. So About the role will mention eligibility to receive benefits (Yes) and veterans preference eligible (Yes) and sponsorship (no). But we might keep brief.
Now Responsibilities: we need to list duties from Position Summary & Responsibilities. That's a long paragraph with bullet-like sentences. We'll convert to
- items.
We need to preserve all substantive information: we must not summarize away detail. So we need to keep each responsibility sentence as separate list item.
Let's extract responsibilities:
