Nondisplaced Zone II fracture of sacrum, init for clos fx

This code signifies a fracture of the sacrum, specifically located in Zone II (involving the sacral foramina) without any displacement of the bone fragments. It indicates that the patient is receiving initial treatment for this injury, which is a closed fracture (skin intact).

Apply this code for patients presenting with a newly diagnosed, non-displaced sacral fracture that involves the neural foramina. This is appropriate for the initial visit where the fracture is identified and treatment begins, and there is no open wound communicating with the fracture site.

• Ensure documentation specifies "nondisplaced" and "Zone II" for accurate code assignment.
• Confirm the encounter is the "initial" one for this specific fracture.
• Verify the fracture is "closed" and not an open fracture.
