Physician-Cardiac Surgeon
for section headings: e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must only include sections when posting has real specific content. Avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". We need to preserve all substantive info.
We need to decide which sections to include. The posting includes:
- Summary: mentions EDRP eligibility, program details. Could be under "About the role" or maybe "Benefits"? Actually EDRP is a benefit. Could be under Benefits.
- Qualifications: includes basic requirements, additional requirements, proficiency, etc. So we can have a "Qualifications" section.
- Responsibilities/Duties: list of duties. So "Responsibilities" section.
- Benefits: includes PTO, retirement, insurance, licensure, CME, malpractice, contract, maybe also recruitment incentive, EDRP. So "Benefits" section.
- Pay: mentions "Competitive salary - annual performance bonus - regular salary increases". That's specific enough to include Pay section.
- Schedule: "Work Schedule: 8:00am - 4:30pm Monday - Friday (Variable at supervisor discretion)". So Schedule section.
- Skills? Not explicitly listed; there is "Preferred Experience" etc. Could be under Qualifications. We might not need separate Skills.
- About the role: maybe a brief overview: The VA Northeast Ohio Healthcare System recruiting for full-time Physician (Cardiac Surgeon) ... Provide comprehensive surgical care ... etc. That could be under About the role.
We must not repeat job title as heading. The page already shows it, so we don't add a heading for job title.
We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers.
We must remove boilerplate like EEO, scam warning, navigation, cookie, legal.
We must output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
We need to use for section headings, - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail.
We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content.
Let's extract content.
Summary: "This position is eligible for the Education Debt Reduction Program (EDRP) - a student loan payment reimbursement program. You must meet specific eligibility requirements per VHA policy and submit your EDRP application within four months of appointment. Program Approval - award amount (up to $200 -000) & eligibility period (one to five years) are determined by the VHA Education Loan Repayment Services program office after review of the EDRP application. Former EDRP participants ineligible to apply."
We can put that under Benefits (maybe as a bullet). Or under About the role? Probably Benefits.
Qualifications: includes basic requirements (citizenship, degree, license, residency training, proficiency in English) and additional requirements (board certification or board eligible preferred experience: experience in adult cardiac surgery, minimally invasive/robotic, complex valve surgery, coronary revascularization, surgical treatment of atrial fibrillation, structural heart/TAVR programs, temporary mechanical circulatory support, advanced heart failure/LVAD program development). Also note about pending training, current employed physicians deemed to have met basic requirements, etc. Also note about PRPs etc. We need to preserve all substantive info; we can list as bullet points.
Responsibilities/Duties: list of duties: Provide comprehensive surgical care..., Perform coronary artery bypass grafting..., Participate in development..., Participate in multidisciplinary structural heart..., Participate in management..., Support development..., Provide timely inpatient/outpatient..., Participate in shared call..., Participate in education..., Participate in quality assurance..., Participate in Surgical Service..., Participate in clinical outcomes research..., Practice in accordance with VA policies...
We need to keep all.
Benefits: includes Recruitment/Relocation Incentives (Sign-on Bonus): A Recruitment incentive may be available for highly qualified applicants; EDPR Authorized: Former EDRP participants ineligible to apply for incentive; Contact vhaedrpprogramsupport@va.gov; Pay: Competitive salary - annual performance bonus - regular salary increases; Paid Time Off: 50-55 days of paid time off per year (26 days of annual leave - 13 days of sick leave - 11 paid Federal holidays per year and possible 5 day paid absence for CME); Retirement: Traditional federal pension (5 years vesting) and federal 401K with up to 5% in contributions by VA; Insurance: Federal health/vision/dental/term life/long-term care (many federal insurance programs can be carried into retirement); Licensure: 1 full and unrestricted license from any US State or territory; CME: Possible $1 -000 per year reimbursement (must be full-time with board certification); Malpractice: Free liability protection with tail coverage provided; Contract: No Physician Employment Contract and no significant restriction on moonlighting.
We need to separate Pay and Benefits sections as per instruction: Use headings Pay, Benefits, Schedule. So Pay section will contain the pay info. Benefits section will contain other benefits (PTO, retirement, insurance, licensure, CME, malpractice, contract, recruitment incentive, EDRP). However note that the posting also mentions "Pay: Competitive salary - annual performance bonus - regular salary increases". That's the only pay detail. So we will put that under Pay.
Schedule: Work Schedule: 8:00am - 4:30pm Monday - Friday (Variable at supervisor discretion).
Now About the role: Could be a brief paragraph summarizing the role: The VA Northeast Ohio Healthcare System is recruiting for a full-time Physician (Cardiac Surgeon) to join the Cardiac Surgery Section within Surgical Service at the Louis Stokes Cleveland VA Medical Center. The successful applicant will provide comprehensive surgical care to Veterans with adult acquired cardiac disease and will participate in the continued development and rebuilding of a high-quality - academically oriented cardiac surgery program. That seems appropriate.
We must not repeat job title as heading. So we will not have a heading for "Physician (Cardiac Surgeon)". We'll just have About the role heading.
Now we need to decide if we need a separate "Requirements" section. The qualifications already cover requirements. The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can choose to use Qualifications for the requirements. We could also have Requirements and Qualifications separate but that may be thin. Better to use Qualifications for the requirements (basic and additional). We can omit Requirements if we don't have separate content.
Skills: Not explicitly listed; we could combine with Qualifications. Probably we omit Skills section.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
Now we need to format.
Use
for each heading.
Under each heading, we need to use
for prose, and
- for any list.
We need to preserve all substantive info; we must not invent or summarize away detail.
Let's craft each section.
About the role: prose paragraph(s). Could be two paragraphs: first about recruitment, second about duties overview? But duties are separate. So About the role can be a short paragraph describing the position and its purpose.
We'll write:

That's it.
Responsibilities: list of duties. Use - for each duty.
