Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 25 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[A state plan for medical assistance must] provide that all individuals wishing to make application for medical assistance under the plan shall have opportunity to do so, and that such assistance shall be furnished with reasonable promptness to all eligible individuals.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“the Medicaid Act requires states provide some services and permits them to provide other services. The latter group is referred to as “optional services.” The HCB Waiver programs are optional services. While it is true that the Waiver program is governed by an agreement between the state and the federal government, when a state elects to provide an optional service, that service becomes part of the state Medicaid plan and is subject to the requirements of federal law.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the dissent“more stringent eligibility requirements for the waiver program than for Medicaid as a whole,”
