Nondisp transcondy fx r humerus, subs for fx w routn heal

This code signifies a follow-up visit for a patient who sustained a fracture through the condyles of their right humerus, which was not displaced at the time of injury. At this subsequent encounter, the fracture is progressing as expected with routine healing.

Apply this code for follow-up appointments where a physician assesses the healing of a nondisplaced transcondylar fracture of the right humerus. This includes routine cast checks, imaging reviews showing callus formation, or physical therapy evaluations during the expected healing phase.

• Ensure documentation specifies "nondisplaced" and "right humerus" for accurate coding.
• The "D" seventh character indicates a subsequent encounter for routine healing; do not use for initial treatment or delayed/nonunion.
• Confirm the fracture type is transcondylar, differentiating it from supracondylar or intercondylar fractures.
