Inpatient Care Management Medical Director - Remote
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must not repeat job title as heading. So no heading for "Inpatient Care Management Medical Director". Good.
We must not put Job ID etc.
We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting that are substantive, but we can condense into lists/prose as long as we keep the info.
We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we need to cut out the EEO statement, drug-free workplace, mission statements about equity, etc. Also remove "Application Deadline: This will be posted for a minimum of 2 business days..." etc. Also remove "At UnitedHealth Group, our mission is to help people live healthier lives..." etc. Also remove "We comply with all minimum wage laws as applicable." That's maybe not boilerplate but could be considered legal; but it's a statement about compliance. Might be considered boilerplate? The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. The line about minimum wage laws is legal; maybe we should remove it as legal boilerplate. However it's not EEO but still legal. Safer to remove.
Also remove "UnitedHealth Group is an Equal Employment Opportunity employer..." etc. Remove "UnitedHealth Group is a drug - free workplace. Candidates are required to pass a drug test before beginning employment."
Also remove "No matter where or when you begin a career with us, you'll find a far-reaching choice of benefits and incentives." That's somewhat benefits but maybe keep? It's generic; but we already have benefits specifics. Could keep as part of benefits prose but it's somewhat generic. Might be okay to keep but it's not specific. The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." That line is somewhat generic but still substantive about benefits. Might keep.
But we also have "Come make an impact on the communities we serve as you help us advance health optimization on a global scale." That's fluff but maybe part of About the role.
We need to decide what to keep. The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we keep everything else unless it's duplicated or boilerplate. The mission statements about equity, EEO, drug-free workplace are legal/EEO boilerplate, so remove. The line about minimum wage laws is legal, remove. The line about "No matter where or when you begin a career with us, you'll find a far-reaching choice of benefits and incentives." is not EEO/legal; it's a benefit statement but somewhat generic; we can keep.
Also "We are currently seeking an Inpatient Care Management Medical Director to join our Optum team." That's job title but we cannot repeat as heading; we can keep in prose.
Now let's extract content for each section.
About the role: Should include the introductory paragraphs about Optum mission, culture, the role purpose, remote flexibility, etc. Let's gather:
- "Optum is a global organization that delivers care, aided by technology to help millions of people live healthier lives. The work you do with our team will directly improve health outcomes by connecting people with the care, pharmacy benefits, data and resources they need to feel their best. Here, you will find a culture guided by inclusion, talented peers, comprehensive benefits and career development opportunities. Come make an impact on the communities we serve as you help us advance health optimization on a global scale. Join us to start Caring. Connecting. Growing together."
- Then: "We are currently seeking an Inpatient Care Management Medical Director to join our Optum team. This team is responsible for conducting acute level of care and length of stay reviews for medical necessity for our members being managed within the continuum of care. Our clients include local and national commercial employer, Medicare, and state Medicaid plans. The Medical Directors work with groups of nurses and support staff to manage inpatient care utilization at a hospital, market, regional or national level. You'll enjoy the flexibility to work remotely * from anywhere within the U.S. as you take on some tough challenges."
