We need to produce HTML fragment with sections: About the role (job summary), Responsibilities (duties), Requirements, maybe Benefits, Pay, Schedule if present. The posting includes no explicit Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should not include those sections. Also we need to include About Us? The instruction: use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). "About Us" is not listed; but we could treat it as maybe "About the role"? Actually "About Us" is separate description of organization. Should we include? The instruction says include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. The posting includes "About Us" paragraph describing Care New England. That's substantive content. However the allowed headings list does not include "About Us". But we could still use

for section headings; they gave examples but not exclusive. Probably we can use "About Us" as a heading. However they said use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). That suggests those are typical headings; we can also use other headings if appropriate. Safer to include "About Us" as a heading. We must not repeat the job title as a heading. The job title is "Clinical Denial Supervisor". Not to be used as heading. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; none present. We must remove boilerplate: EEO statements, ADA, Ethics, etc. Remove duplicated lines. Also remove application instructions (none). Remove cookie/navigation/legal etc. We need to preserve all substantive information: job summary, duties, requirements, about us, maybe certification details. We need to use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. The duties are a long paragraph with many sentences; we could break into list items for each duty. The posting includes many duty sentences separated by periods. We should convert to list items. Similarly requirements: list items. We need to use

    for prose. So sections with prose can be

    . For lists, use

    • . We must not invent or summarize away detail. Must preserve all substantive information. So we need to include all details from duties and responsibilities, requirements, about us. Let's extract content. Job Summary paragraph: "Under the general supervision of the Care Management Leadership, the Clinical Denial Supervisor performs advanced level work related to clinical denial management. The individual is responsible for managing medical denials for hospital care by conducting a comprehensive review of clinical documentation.
