Offset- It means adjustments of debts payments to be received against the credit payable. If there is a overpayment made by insurance company to the provider, then the insurance company will adjust by deducting the amount from other patient claim.

For example :

If the provider billed a patient claim for $250 and the actual allowed is $200, if the insurance paid $250.00 then the excess amount of $50 will be adjusted in another patient claim.

Both are correct. Its the process of reversal of old claims and posting the amount to new claim.
