The U.S. Supreme Court, with Justice Sonia Sotomayor presiding, has denied an application put forth by attorneys from Gibson Dunn & Crutcher. This decision effectively upholds two lower court rulings regarding New York’s Medicaid program adjustments. The case centers on the state’s Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program, which facilitates disabled and elderly individuals in hiring home health aides. As a result of the denial, New York is poised to phase out more than 600 fiscal intermediaries by Tuesday, in favor of a single fiscal intermediary model.
