Physician - Pain Management

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes: Summary (EDRP eligibility), Qualifications (basic requirements, preferred experience, etc.), Duties (list of duties), Work Schedule, Pay (Competitive salary - annual performance bonus - regular salary increases), Benefits (Paid Time Off, Retirement, Insurance, Licensure, CME, Malpractice, Contract). Also mention EDRP details. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. We need to preserve all substantive info. Use

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

  for prose. We need to decide sections: Could have "About the role" (summary), "Qualifications", "Responsibilities" (duties), "Benefits", "Pay", "Schedule". Possibly also "Requirements" but qualifications covers. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to include EDRP details in About the role or Qualifications? The summary mentions EDRP eligibility. Could put in About the role. We need to include Pay details: "Competitive salary - annual performance bonus - regular salary increases". That's specific enough for Pay section. Benefits: list items: Paid Time Off (50-55 days per year breakdown), Retirement (Traditional federal pension 5 years vesting and federal 401K with up to 5% VA contributions), Insurance (Federal health/vision/dental/term life/long-term care), 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). Also EDRP details maybe under Benefits? Could be separate but we can include under Benefits as "Education Debt Reduction Program (EDRP) - student loan payment reimbursement program, up to $200,000, eligibility period one to five years, former participants ineligible". Also mention contact email. Schedule: "Monday - Friday 8:00am - 4:30pm Schedule subject to change based on needs of the facility." Responsibilities: list of duties from "Direct Clinical Responsibilities include but are not limited to the following:" plus preceding paragraph about role. We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent. Let's craft sections:

  Schedule

  We must ensure no extra sections like "Requirements". Also ensure no duplicate content. All substantive info preserved. Check that we didn't miss any details: The summary also mentions "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." We captured that. We also captured "Former EDRP participants ineligible to apply." Good. We captured "Contact VISN7EDRPFacilityCoordinators2@va.gov - the EDRP Coordinator for questions/assistance". Included. We captured "Pay: Competitive salary - annual performance bonus - regular salary increases". Good. We captured "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)". Good. We captured "Retirement: Traditional federal pension (5 years vesting) and federal 401K with up to 5% in contributions by VA". Good. We captured "Insurance: Federal health/vision/dental/term life/long-term care (many federal insurance programs can be carried into retirement)". Good. We captured "Licensure: 1 full and unrestricted license from any US State or territory". Good. We captured "CME: Possible $1 -000 per year reimbursement (must be full-time with board certification)". Good. We captured "Malpractice: Free liability protection with tail coverage provided". Good. We captured "Contract: No Physician Employment Contract and no significant restriction on moonlighting". Good. We captured duties list. We captured "Work Schedule: Monday - Friday 8:00am - 4:30pmSchedule subject to change based on needs of the facility." Good. We captured "The Pain Clinic Physician reports to the Section Chief - Pain Clinic under the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Service (PM&Rs) and will work alongside a multidisciplinary team of pain management staff within the Pain Clinic Section of PM&Rs". Good. We captured "Prior experience within an interdisciplinary pain rehabilitation program - Pain training/Board Certification and experience with musculoskeletal ultrasound are highly preferred". Did we include that? Not yet. We need to include that as part of Qualifications or Responsibilities. It's a preference. Let's add under Qualifications as a bullet: "Prior experience within an interdisciplinary pain rehabilitation program, pain training/board certification, and experience with musculoskeletal ultrasound are highly preferred." Also we missed "Evaluating and diagnosing opioid use disorder is a requirement of Veteran Affairs (VA) pain management teams as outlined in the 2016 Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery ActThis position is expected to be able to assess for and diagnose opioid use disorder (OUD) - as well as provide medication management for OUD when indicatedIn addition - This position is expected to coordinate specialty substance use care when indicatedNo specific addiction training or certification is needed upon application for this position and appropriate training opportunities will be provided by VA Pain clinic team as applicable". We included ability to evaluate and diagnose OUD and coordinate substance use care, and note training provided. Good. We also missed "Reference: For more information on this qualification standard - please visit https://www.va.gov/ohrm/QualificationStandards/". Could include as a link in Qualifications maybe. But it's a reference link; we should preserve. Add a

  with link. Also we missed "Physical Requirements: Eligible applicants must be physically and mentally able to perform efficiently the essential functions of the position - with or without reasonable accommodation - without hazard to themselves or othersDepending on the essential duties of a specific position - usable vision - color vision - hearing or speech may be requiredhowever - in most cases - a specific physical condition or impairment of a specific function may be compensated for by the satisfactory use of a prosthesis or mechanical aid." This is substantive; we should include perhaps under Qualifications or a separate section "Physical Requirements". Since we have a section for Requirements maybe we can add a "Physical Requirements" subsection under Qualifications or as its own heading. The instruction says use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we could have a "Requirements" section for physical requirements. But we already have Qualifications covering licensure etc. Physical requirements could be under Requirements. Let's create a section

  Requirements

  with the physical requirements paragraph. We must not repeat job title as heading. Not using Job ID. We need to ensure we don't create sections with filler. All
