Physician-Chief of Hematology and Oncology
About the role
maybe? The posting includes a summary about the role: EDRP eligibility, etc. Could be About the role. But we have to decide which sections to include. We have content for: - About the role: maybe a brief overview: The Section of Hematology and Oncology at Salisbury VA HealthCare Center seeking physician leader... etc. That's from Duties section but could be role overview. - Responsibilities: detailed duties (Administrative, Clinical, Education and Scholarship, Research). - Requirements: maybe combine Qualifications and Basic Requirements? But we have Qualifications heading allowed. We'll put Qualifications for certification/license etc. Requirements maybe for basic requirements? But we have both Qualifications and Requirements headings allowed. We need to decide. The posting has "Qualifications" section with basic requirements, additional requirement, preferred experience, physical requirements. So we can put all that underQualifications
. Then we might not need a separate Requirements heading. But we also have "Basic Requirements" subheading inside Qualifications. We can keep as- etc.
We also have "Preferred Experience: ABIM board certification in Hematology and/or Medical Oncology". That's a qualification.
Physical requirements also under Qualifications.
Thus we can have Qualifications only.
Responsibilities: duties.
Benefits: includes EDRP details, PTO, retirement, insurance, licensure, CME reimbursement, malpractice, contract, recruitment incentive maybe.
Pay: competitive salary, annual performance bonus, regular salary increases, CME reimbursement $1,000 per year (maybe also under Benefits but we can put under Pay). Also maybe mention "Paid Time Off" is benefits.
Schedule: work schedule Monday-Friday 8:00am-4:30pm.
We also have "Recruitment Incentive: May be authorized for highly qualified candidates". Could be under Benefits.
We must not create sections with filler text. Ensure each heading has substantive content.
Now we need to format lists.
We'll produce:

Qualifications
Basic Requirements

- Degree of doctor of medicine or an equivalent degree resulting from a course of education in allopathic medicine or osteopathic medicine, obtained from a school approved by the Department of Veterans Affairs for the year in which the course of study was completed.
- Current, full and unrestricted license to practice medicine or surgery in a State, Territory, or Commonwealth of the United States, or in the District of Columbia.
- Residency Training: Physicians must have completed residency training approved by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs in an accredited core specialty training program leading to eligibility for board certification. Approved residencies are: (1) Those accredited by ACGME or AOA in the list published for the year the residency (or fellowship if applicable) was completed; (2) One year of post‑medical‑school training (internship, first year of residency, or transitional year residency) approved by ACGME or AOA followed by two years of post‑training independent practice (performing under a full and unrestricted license) in the United States; (3) Non‑US residency training programs followed by a minimum of three years of verified independent practice in the United States (performing under a full and unrestricted license) performing duties related to the position, which the local Medical Staff Executive Committee deems to have provided appropriate professional training and exposed the physician to an appropriate range of patient care experiences (U.S. fellowships creditable toward this requirement). Exceptions: Residents currently enrolled in ACGME/AOA accredited residency training programs who would otherwise meet the basic requirements are eligible to be appointed as “Physician Resident Providers” (PRPs); PRPs must be fully licensed physicians and may only be appointed on an intermittent basis, not considered independent practitioners and will not be privileged, having a scope of practice that allows them to perform certain restricted duties under supervision; surgery residents in gap years may also be appointed as PRPs.
