Nondisp fx of ant wall of r acetab, subs for fx w nonunion

This code signifies a fracture of the front portion of the right hip socket that has not shifted out of alignment. The patient is in a later stage of care, and the fracture is failing to heal properly, indicating a nonunion.

This code is appropriate for follow-up encounters where a patient with a previously diagnosed nondisplaced anterior wall acetabular fracture of the right hip is being treated for a confirmed nonunion. This includes situations where surgical intervention for the nonunion is being planned or performed, or conservative management for the nonunion is ongoing.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "nonunion" for the fracture healing status.
• Verify the fracture is specifically of the "anterior wall" of the acetabulum and on the "right" side.
• This code is for subsequent encounters, not the initial treatment of the acute fracture.
