Nondisp fx of olecran pro w/o intartic extn unsp ulna, 7thK

This code describes a follow-up encounter for a fracture of the olecranon process (the bony prominence at the tip of the elbow) that has not displaced and does not extend into the joint. The fracture is of an unspecified ulna and, despite previous treatment, has failed to heal properly, indicating a nonunion.

Use this code for subsequent visits where a patient is being managed for a previously diagnosed, non-displaced olecranon fracture without intraarticular extension that has developed a nonunion. This applies when the fracture is still closed and the specific ulna (left or right) was not documented.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "nonunion" for the fracture.
• Verify that the fracture is explicitly described as "nondisplaced" and "without intraarticular extension."
• Confirm this is a subsequent encounter and the fracture is closed.
