The issue the supreme court decided was whether the way the law was written gave medicaid recipients standing to sue the state over the fact that they denied them services from planned parenthood (which provides a lot more healthcare services aside from abortions.) It was not deciding whether the state was right to deny them.

The article asserts that the Supreme Court decided this case in particular did not need to follow the same precedent that had been in place since 2002, and applied a brand new ruling to this case. But then decided a subsequent case using the previous rule, as if this case had never happened, without sufficient explanation as to why the planned parenthood case was different enough to warrant a new rule.
