Nondisp fx of med condyle of r humer, subs for fx w malunion

This code signifies a fracture of the inner bony prominence at the lower end of the right upper arm bone that has not shifted from its original position, and is currently being treated for a complication where the bone has healed in an abnormal alignment. It indicates that the patient is in the healing phase of this specific fracture, but the healing process has resulted in a malunion.

Apply this code when a patient presents for follow-up care, rehabilitation, or further treatment of a previously diagnosed nondisplaced medial condyle fracture of the right humerus, and the documentation clearly states that the fracture has healed improperly (malunion). This is appropriate for subsequent encounters after the initial treatment of the acute fracture.

• Ensure documentation explicitly states "malunion" and specifies the right humerus medial condyle.
• This code is for subsequent encounters; do not use for the initial treatment of the acute fracture.
• Verify the fracture was originally nondisplaced to align with the code's specificity.
