We need to output HTML fragment with sections for headings where content exists. Must not repeat job title. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate. Must preserve all substantive info. Use for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes description (About the role) and responsibilities (Key Responsibilities with subpoints). Also Requirements and Preferred Qualifications (maybe Qualifications). No explicit Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we include About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications (maybe Preferred Qualifications). Skills? Not explicit separate list; responsibilities include skills but we can treat as part of Responsibilities. We'll not create Skills section if no explicit skills list.

Let's extract About the role: first paragraph(s) before "Key Responsibilities". The text: "Gritter Francona is looking for a Health System Analyst SME that will provide senior-level healthcare systems analysis, business process analysis, clinical workflow, and operational expertise to support the design, implementation, evaluation, and scaling of an Elevated Risk Care Management (ERCM) Pilot focused on improving coordination and effectiveness of suicide prevention-related care for Veterans at elevated risk. The Health Systems Analyst SME will support the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) in analyzing current-state and future-state healthcare processes, identifying operational gaps, designing improved business processes, and supporting implementation of sustainable workflows. The SME will apply extensive knowledge of VHA clinical and business operations to ensure that the ERCM model is practical, effective, scalable, and appropriately integrated into existing healthcare processes. The Health Systems Analyst SME will work closely with Government program leads, VHA clinical and operational stakeholders, pilot sites, Behavioral Health Interdisciplinary Program (BHIP) teams, Mental Health Treatment Coordinators (MHTCs), suicide prevention personnel, and other clinical teams throughout the Concept, Explore, Design, Implement, Evaluate, and Spread phases."
