Physician Cardiologist

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Not present. Responsibilities? Duties. Requirements? Qualifications. Benefits? Pay? Schedule? We need to include sections only if posting has real specific content. We have: Summary (location, announcement date). Qualifications (basic requirements). Duties (list). Benefits: includes recruitment/relocation incentive, education debt reduction program, pay, PTO, retirement, insurance, licensure, CME, malpractice, contract, work schedule. We need to format with

for each section heading. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

  for prose. Do not repeat job title as heading. Do not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Not present. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. So we can have sections: About the role? Not present; maybe we can skip. Responsibilities? Could map to Duties. Requirements? Qualifications. Benefits? Pay? Schedule? Could combine Pay and Schedule into Benefits? But they said prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could have sections: Qualifications, Responsibilities, Benefits (including pay, PTO, retirement, insurance, etc.), Work Schedule (maybe separate). But we need to avoid thin sections. Perhaps combine Pay and Schedule into Benefits? But they said include a section ONLY when posting has real specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. So we need to ensure each section has content. We have content for Qualifications (basic requirements). Duties (list). Benefits (multiple items). Pay (competitive salary...). Schedule (Monday-Friday 8:00am-4:30pm). Could combine Pay and Schedule into a "Compensation and Schedule" section. But they gave specific headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. They said use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can choose any of those headings that match content. We have Qualifications (basic requirements). Responsibilities (duties). Benefits (list of benefits). Pay (competitive salary...). Schedule (work hours). Could also include Skills? Not explicit. Could omit. Thus produce sections: Qualifications, Responsibilities, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to ensure we don't repeat job title. Not needed. We need to format lists: For Qualifications, it's a list of basic requirements (citizenship, degree, license, residency training, English proficiency). Could be

  • . For Responsibilities, list of duties. For Benefits, list of benefit items. For Pay, maybe just a paragraph (since it's a sentence). For Schedule, maybe a paragraph. We must preserve ALL substantive information. So include all details from the posting. Let's extract details. Summary: location: Royal C Johnson VA Health Care System in Sioux Falls - South Dakota.

We need to avoid duplication: The Pay line appears also in Benefits paragraph; but we have a separate Pay section. We'll keep Pay section with that sentence. Benefits section will include other items (excluding Pay and Schedule). However the Benefits paragraph also includes "VA offers a comprehensive total rewards package" and then lists items including Pay, PTO, Retirement, Insurance, Licensure, CME, Malpractice, Contract. Since we separate Pay and Schedule, we should exclude those from Benefits to avoid duplication. But we must preserve all substantive information; if we exclude Pay and Schedule from Benefits, we still have them in their own sections, so information is preserved. Ensure we don't lose any other benefit details. Thus Benefits section will include: - VHA Physician Total Rewards - Recruitment/Relocation Incentive (Sign-on Bonus): A recruitment/relocation incentive has been authorized for highly qualified applicants - Education Debt Reduction Program (Student Loan Repayment): Learn more - EDRP Authorized: Position(s) listed under this Open Continuous Announcement (OCA) MAY be eligible for the Education Debt Reduction Program (EDRP) - a student loan payment reimbursement program * Applicants selected for an EDRP-eligible position will be notified in their conditional job offer * The selectee must meet specific eligibility requirements per VHA policy and submit an EDRP application within four months of appointment * Program approval - award amount (up to $200 -000) - and 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 are ineligible to apply - 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
