The Golden Thread of Documentation for Foundational Community Supports

Washington Health Care Authority (HCA) Foundational Community Supports (FCS) team in partnership with Rutgers School for Psychiatric Rehabilitation and Counseling Professions is launching the 2025 Golden Thread in Documentation training series. This is a six part series that will occur April - May.

The Golden Thread in Documentation training provides a comprehensive overview, with practical applications, of (FCS) documentation. Each webinar covers a specific type of documentation and addresses Medicaid requirements and the importance of the connection between assessments, service plans, and progress notes, known as the Golden Thread.

Additionally, the series will be presented along with the newly developed Golden Thread Toolkit, a valuable new resource for FCS staff. The webinars and toolkit are designed for FCS staff who are responsible for service provision and documentation. It is recommended that participants attend all sessions in the series, as the information presented is cumulative.
