(a)

Secure payment of the claim in whole or in part by the acceptance of assignments, conveyances, notes, mortgages and other transfers of property or interests therein.

(b)

Waive the claim to the extent that the department or the authority finds that enforcement would tend to defeat the purpose of the public assistance or medical assistance laws.
