I think Empire BCBS is the worse. But they do come straight out and say they will not pay any problem-oriented E&M (99213) with a preventive exam. They only pay the preventive exam and actually put on the eob that the other is considered part of it. We tell the patients that they have to have a separate visit on a different day since their insurance won't cover both at the same time.
