Disp fx of shaft of right clavicle, subs for fx w delay heal

This code signifies a break in the main part of the right collarbone that is no longer in its proper alignment, and the patient is presenting for follow-up care due to the fracture healing slower than expected. It indicates an ongoing management phase for a displaced clavicular shaft fracture with documented delayed union.

Apply this code when a patient with a previously diagnosed displaced right clavicle shaft fracture returns for an encounter where the physician notes and addresses delayed healing. This would include follow-up appointments for monitoring, imaging, or treatment adjustments specifically due to the slow healing process.

• Ensure documentation explicitly states "delayed healing" or "delayed union" for the right clavicle shaft fracture.
• Verify the fracture was initially displaced and is located in the shaft of the clavicle.
• This code is for subsequent encounters; an initial encounter would use a different seventh character.
