people come in more than once a year saying ins will only pay if it is preventative. very frustrating!!!

They come in more than once for a preventive? Or for something else. If they are truely coming in for a preventive more than once then you must code it as a preventive and the patient must pay. This is a benefit issue. You cannot code an encounter as something it is not to force a pyment from the payer. If the patient has a once a year benefit and they seek that service more than once a year, then they owe for the encounter.
