Nondisp fx of shaft of 2nd MC bone, r hand, 7thD

Nondisplaced fracture of shaft of second metacarpal bone, right hand, subsequent encounter for fracture with routine healing

📋Clinical Description

This code indicates a fracture of the middle portion (shaft) of the second metacarpal bone in the right hand that is not displaced. The patient is in the routine healing phase following the initial injury, and this encounter is for follow-up care.

🎯When to Use

Apply this code for subsequent visits where a patient is receiving ongoing care for a previously diagnosed, nondisplaced right second metacarpal shaft fracture. This includes appointments for cast changes, wound checks, or physical therapy during the expected healing period.

💡Coding Tips

Ensure documentation specifies "nondisplaced" and "shaft" of the second metacarpal.
The "D" seventh character signifies a subsequent encounter for routine healing.
Verify the laterality (right hand) is clearly documented.
