Question Presented (from Petition)

1. Whether Spending Clause legislation, including Section u-2(f), can impliedly create private rights enforceable under 42 U.S.C. § 1983.

2. Whether, if so, Section u-2(f)'s requirement that States include the Timely Payment Clause in their contracts with MCOs unambiguously gives States a statutory duty, not just a contractual right, to ensure that MCOs pay providers in accordance with that contract provision, and also unambiguously gives providers a private right to enforce that duty.

Question Presented (AI Summary)

Whether Spending Clause legislation, including Section u-2(f), can impliedly create private rights enforceable under 42 U.S.C. § 1983
