20-1432 Fed. Cir. N/A N/A N/A N/A OT 2020

Issue: Whether the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit erred in concluding that Congress intended to afford insurers an implied money-damages remedy as compensation for cost-sharing reduction payments that were not made because Congress declined to appropriate funds to pay them and that could generally be offset under other provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act that insurers invoked to obtain a recovery.
