Physician (Hematology and Oncology Program Manager)

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Not present. Responsibilities? Duties. Requirements? Qualifications. Benefits? Pay? Schedule? We need to include only sections with real specific content. We have content: Summary about EDRP eligibility. That's maybe "About the role"? Could be "Summary". But we must use headings from list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can map. We have "Summary" about EDRP eligibility. Could be placed under "About the role". Provide paragraph. We have "Qualifications" heading already in text. We'll keep that as

Qualifications

with content. We have "Duties" section. That maps to Responsibilities. We have "Pay", "Paid Time Off", "Retirement", "Insurance", "Licensure", "CME", "Malpractice", "Contract", "Work Schedule". Those are benefits and pay and schedule. We need to create sections: Benefits (maybe combine PTO, retirement, insurance, licensure, CME, malpractice, contract). Pay section: "Competitive salary - annual performance bonus - regular salary increases". Schedule: "Monday-Friday - 8:00am-4:30pm". Also maybe "Work Schedule" heading. We must not include placeholder like "commensurate with experience" etc. There's a line: "Additional Requirement: Faculty appointment at Wake Forest University School of Medicine - commensurate with experience". That's placeholder? It says commensurate with experience, which is vague; we should avoid including that line? The rule: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. For content within a section, we should avoid filler text. The line "Faculty appointment at Wake Forest University School of Medicine - commensurate with experience" includes "commensurate with experience". That's filler; we should omit that detail? But we must preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. However we must not include filler text. The line contains both substantive (Faculty appointment at Wake Forest University School of Medicine) and filler (commensurate with experience). We could keep the substantive part and drop the filler phrase. Probably we can keep "Faculty appointment at Wake Forest University School of Medicine". The phrase "commensurate with experience" is filler; we can omit it. Similarly "Preferred Experience: ABIM board certification in Hematology and/or Medical Oncology and fellowship training in adult Hematology & Oncology" is substantive. We also have "Physical Requirements:" list; that could be under Requirements? Might be part of Qualifications? Could be a separate section? Not in allowed headings. Could be part of Requirements? We'll include under Requirements maybe as a list. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Not present. Now construct HTML. We'll have:

About the role

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) 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.

Qualifications

To qualify for this position you must meet the basic requirements as well as any additional requirements listed in the job announcement. Applicants pending completion of training or license requirements may be referred and tentatively selected but may not be hired until all requirements are met. Currently employed physician(s) in VA who met the requirements for appointment under the previous qualification standard at the time of their initial appointment are deemed to have met the basic requirements of the occupation.

• United States Citizenship: Non-citizens may only be appointed when it is not possible to recruit qualified citizens in accordance with VA Policy
• Degree of doctor of medicine or an equivalent degree resulting from a course of education in allopathic medicine or osteopathic medicine
• The degree must have been obtained from one of the schools 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 approved by the accrediting bodies for graduate medical education – the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) or American Osteopathic Association (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 they are applying for (United States fellowships would be creditable towards this requirement) – which the local Medical Staff Executive Committee deems to have provided the applicant with appropriate professional training and believes has exposed the Physician to an appropriate range of patient care experiences
• Exceptions: Residents currently enrolled in ACGME/AOA accredited residency training programs and who would otherwise meet the basic requirements for appointment are eligible to be appointed as “Physician Resident Providers” (PRPs). PRPs must be fully licensed physicians (i.e., not a training license) and may only be appointed on an intermittent basis. PRPs are not considered independent practitioners and will not be privileged; rather, they are to have a “scope of practice” that allows them to perform certain restricted duties under supervision. Additionally, surgery residents in gap years may also be appointed as PRPs. In rare and unusual circumstances – the Facility Director can submit a memo to the VISN Director through the VISN Chief Medical Officer – who may approve requests for reasonable exceptions to the residency training requirement for Physicians whose composite record of experience, accomplishments, performance, and qualifications warrant such action.
