(2) the claimant's ability to recover such judgment was limited by the application of subsections (c) and (d) of K.S.A. 60-258a and amendments thereto, other than by virtue of claimant's settlement with or decision not to assert a legally enforceable claim against a named or an unnamed party;
(3) the amount to which the claimant's ability to recover such judgment was limited by the insolvency or bankruptcy of a person; and
(4) the award of damages has been reduced because of a statutory limit upon the recovery of damages.
(b) If there is no amount falling within subsections (a)(1) through (a)(4) then the court shall reduce the judgment by the full amount of the net collateral source benefits.
