Nondisp fx of coracoid pro, l shldr, 7thG

This code signifies a non-displaced break in the coracoid process of the left shoulder, which is a small, hook-like projection from the scapula. The fracture is currently in a phase of delayed healing, meaning the expected timeline for bone repair has been exceeded.

Apply this code when documenting follow-up care for a patient with a previously diagnosed, non-displaced left coracoid fracture that is not healing at the anticipated rate. This includes scenarios where the patient presents for re-evaluation, imaging, or ongoing conservative management due to persistent symptoms or radiographic evidence of delayed union.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "delayed healing" for this specific fracture.
• Verify the fracture is explicitly noted as "nondisplaced" and located on the "left" side.
• This code is for subsequent encounters; an initial encounter would use a different seventh character.
