If it is found that any patient or other persons chargeable under said lien are possessed of any goods, rights, credits, chattels, moneys or effects which are held by any person, firm or corporation for the present or subsequent use of said patient, or other persons chargeable under said lien, then the lien provided for herein, or a notice of the existence thereof, may be forwarded by registered mail to said person, firm or corporation and shall become binding upon any property rights so held. Such person, firm or corporation shall thereafter be precluded from disposing of said property rights until said lien is satisfied or until the holder of the lien consents thereto.
Any person, firm or corporation disposing of any such property or moneys after receipt of notice of said lien shall be liable to the institution for the value of such property or moneys of which disposition has been made except that, when the corporation upon which service of notice of the lien has been served is a banking institution, the lien shall be effective against such banking institution only in the amount of the accumulated delinquent maintenance stated in such notice.
