Displaced avulsion fx right ilium, subs for fx w routn heal

This code describes a follow-up encounter for a fracture where a piece of bone has been pulled away from the right ilium, and the bone fragments are not properly aligned. The fracture is currently healing as expected without complications.

This code is appropriate for subsequent visits where a patient is receiving ongoing care for a previously diagnosed displaced avulsion fracture of the right ilium. It signifies that the fracture is progressing through a normal healing process.

• Ensure documentation specifies "right ilium" and "displaced avulsion fracture."
• The "D" seventh character indicates a subsequent encounter for routine healing.
• Do not use this code if the fracture is healing with a complication or if it's the initial encounter.
