Nondisp fx of nk of r rad, 7thE

This code signifies a fracture of the neck of the right radius that has not shifted from its normal anatomical position. The injury was an open fracture, meaning the skin was broken, and is currently in the healing phase without complications.

This code is appropriate for follow-up visits where a patient is receiving ongoing care for a previously diagnosed nondisplaced open fracture (Type I or II) of the right radial neck. It indicates that the fracture is progressing through a normal healing process.

• Ensure documentation specifies "nondisplaced" and "right radius neck" for accurate application.
• Verify the original injury was an "open fracture type I or II" and that healing is routine.
• This "E" encounter code is used for subsequent care during the healing phase.
