ICD-10-CMNondisplaced fracture of coronoid process of right ulna, subsequent encounter for open fracture type IIIA, IIIB, or IIIC with delayed healing
This code signifies a non-displaced fracture of the coronoid process of the right ulna, which was initially an open fracture of type IIIA, IIIB, or IIIC. The patient is currently in a subsequent phase of care, and the fracture is experiencing delayed healing.
This code is appropriate for follow-up encounters where a patient is receiving ongoing treatment for a previously diagnosed open coronoid process fracture of the right ulna that is not healing as expected. It indicates that the fracture, though initially open and now non-displaced, is still in the healing process but at a slower rate than anticipated.
