Disp fx of greater tuberosity of r humer, 7thD

This code signifies a follow-up visit for a patient who previously sustained a fracture of the greater tuberosity of their right humerus, where the bone fragments were not in their normal anatomical alignment. At this subsequent encounter, the fracture is progressing as expected toward full recovery without complications.

This code is appropriate for follow-up appointments, cast changes, or physical therapy sessions for a right greater tuberosity fracture that was initially displaced and is now healing routinely. It indicates that the patient is in the recovery phase and the fracture is mending without issues.

• Ensure documentation specifies "subsequent encounter" and "routine healing" for a previously displaced right greater tuberosity fracture.
• Verify laterality (right humerus) is clearly documented.
• Do not use this code for initial treatment or for fractures with delayed healing, nonunion, or malunion.
