(a) Except as provided in subsection (b) of this section, in all cases of mutual debts and credits between a provider and another person in connection with a delinquency proceeding, the debts and credits shall be offset and the balance only shall be allowed or paid. (b) An offset may not be allowed in favor of another person if: (1) on the date of issuance of a liquidation order or otherwise, as specified in § 10-491(c) of this subtitle, the obligation of the provider to the person would not entitle the person to share as a claimant in the assets of the provider; or (2) the obligation of the provider to the person was purchased by or transferred to the person for use as an offset.
