If you want to avoid contributing to this language abuse in your own writing it can be helpful to include the authority with the improper noun. For example "Part 314 preventative care" (authority made up). The most common and most innocent way these arise is that when some source, rule, process, or law refines or clarifies a definition for good and proper reasons, then people go around using the definition divorced from that context. Even if you don't know and can't find or don't want to be bothered to look up the authority, you can still indicate the improper noun use by saying "insurance jargon preventative care" or even just putting it in quote: "preventative care". This doesn't help if you're participating in jargon and don't know it, but in many (most?) cases the authors of confusing text do know it-- it's their own industries/groups jargon after all.
