S42.001A
ICD-10-CMFracture of unspecified part of right clavicle, initial encounter for closed fracture
This code signifies a break in the right collarbone where the specific location of the fracture along the clavicle is not documented. It indicates that the skin over the fracture site remains intact, and this is the first time the patient is receiving active treatment for this injury.
Apply this code for initial encounters involving a right clavicle fracture when the medical record does not specify whether the fracture is of the sternal end, shaft, or acromial end. This is appropriate for patients presenting with a newly diagnosed, closed right clavicle fracture requiring initial treatment.
