If the amount of the deductible exceeds the recovery, the insurer shall pay only the amount of the recovery to the insured. (b) If in any arbitration of the subrogated claim two (2) or more insurers agree to offset the claims of their insureds, the right of any insured to the return of his full deductible amount shall not be abridged.
