Ant disp fx of sternal end unsp clavicle, 7thK

This code describes a fracture at the sternal end of the collarbone that has shifted forward from its normal alignment. It specifically indicates that the fracture has not healed properly and the patient is being seen for follow-up care related to this nonunion.

Use this code for a patient presenting for ongoing management of a previously diagnosed anteriorly displaced sternal clavicle fracture that has failed to unite. This would include scenarios such as evaluation for surgical intervention to address the nonunion, or conservative management of the established nonunion.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "nonunion" and "subsequent encounter" for the fracture.
• Verify the fracture is specifically at the "sternal end" and is "anteriorly displaced."
• Do not use this code for initial treatment of the fracture or for routine follow-up of a healing fracture.
