Key content:
- Intro: The Phia Group, LLC is a thriving, service-oriented company headquartered in Canton, Massachusetts. As consultants, we represent health plans nationwide, providing our clients with innovative cost-containment solutions through our unique service offerings. As a result of our most valuable resource, our talented and committed team, we continue to enjoy high levels of growth. Now, we seek to add another Health Benefits Attorney to our team. We are currently seeking a full-time Healthcare Attorney with professional experience in the healthcare industry or in similar industries to solve complex issues presented by employers, their health plans, and those entities that service them. The Health Benefits Attorney will play an instrumental role in supporting our consulting services and the continued growth and expansion of our business. This individual will work closely with other attorneys and consultants on our legal team, providing support on consulting, transactional, regulatory, and compliance matters. At The Phia Group, whose mission is to provide high quality yet affordable healthcare to American employees and their families, you can look forward to not only exceptional benefits for yourself but also being immersed in a company that was named one of USA Today’s Top Workplaces for 2026. Meanwhile, from a regional perspective, The Boston Globe, Courier Journal, and Louisville Business First annually recognize our unwavering commitment to upholding an internal culture of inclusivity, enjoyment, and empathy for our valued employees by listing The Phia Group in their respective lists for the Top Places to Work. Note: This is a hybrid schedule and can provide a flexible teleworking schedule if appropriate.
- Essential Duties (list bullet points)
- Minimum Qualifications (list bullet points)
- Preferred Qualifications (list bullet points)
- The Phia Group’s Commitment to Diversity (EEO) - we should remove as boilerplate.
- Working Conditions/Physical Demands (maybe we could include under Requirements? But it's more about working conditions; we could include as a section? The instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real specific content. We could include "Working Conditions" but not in the prescribed list; we only have set headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to map content to those.
- Base Salary: $90,000 - $110,000 (Pay)
- Hybrid schedule note (Schedule)
- Benefits: mention "exceptional benefits" but not specific; we should not create Benefits section unless posting actually states them. It says "you can look forward to not only exceptional benefits for yourself". That's vague; not specific. So we should not create Benefits section.
- Skills: maybe we can extract from qualifications: superior legal writing, analytical, proofreading, attention to detail, organizational, interpersonal, negotiation, communication, ability to manage multiple projects, ability to participate in calls, anticipate issues, develop understanding, comfortable fast-paced, proficiency with MS Office, self-motivated, meet deadlines. Those are skills. We could put under Skills.
- Requirements: Minimum Qualifications (juris doctor, bar admission, 1+ year experience, knowledge of ACA, ERISA, MHPAEA, HIPAA). That's requirements.
- Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications (excellent academic credentials, experience with health plans, familiarity with admin rules, knowledge of CMS billing, confidence in public speaking, willingness to travel). Could be under Qualifications.
- About the role: introductory paragraph describing company and role.
- Responsibilities: Essential Duties list.
- Pay: Base Salary.
- Schedule: hybrid schedule note.
We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We must not include duplicated lines.
We must not include EEO etc.
We must not include Working Conditions/Physical Demands unless we map to something else; but we could maybe include under Requirements? But it's not a requirement; it's working condition. Could we create a section "Working Conditions"? Not allowed per instruction: only use those headings. So we should omit it.
Thus output HTML with sections:
About the role
...
maybe multiple paragraphs. ThenResponsibilities
- ... each duty
Requirements
- ... each minimum qualification
Qualifications
- ... each preferred qualification
Skills
- ... each skill from minimum qualifications list that are skills (maybe combine). But we need to ensure we don't duplicate content. The minimum qualifications list includes both requirements and skills. We could separate: Requirements: juris doctor, bar admission, 1+ year experience, knowledge of ACA, ERISA, MHPAEA, HIPAA. Skills: superior legal writing, analytical, proofreading, attention to detail, organizational, interpersonal, negotiation, communication, ability to manage multiple projects, ability to participate in calls, anticipate issues, develop understanding, comfortable fast-paced, proficiency with MS Office, self-motivated, meet deadlines. We need to extract those from the text. Let's parse Minimum Qualifications paragraph: "Minimum Qualifications Juris doctor from an accredited law school and admittance to a state bar (active)1+ year of experience in the healthcare industry or in similar industries preferred (i.e., employment law, insurance law, disability law, workers’ compensation law)Knowledge of the latest developments in health law, including a working understanding of the ACA, ERISA, MHPAEA, and HIPAASuperior legal writing, analytical, and proofreading skills, as well as strong attention to detailOutstanding organizational, interpersonal, and negotiation skillsAbility to work collaboratively or independently as needed, and to work sensitively with confidential mattersAbility to effectively communicate and interact with various positions throughout our organization as well as with clientsAbility to successfully manage multiple projects, whether large or small, complex or simple, simultaneouslyAbility to participate effectively and confidently in client phone calls, including in occasional video conference callsAbility to anticipate issues and create and implement methods for optimizing results and minimizing risksAbility to develop a deep understanding of the business and our operational goalsComfortable working in a fast-paced environmentHigh level of proficiency using Microsoft Word, Excel and OutlookMust be self-motivated and able to meet deadlines under pressure" We need to split into sensible items.
