S68.124D
ICD-10-CMPartial traumatic metacarpophalangeal amputation of right ring finger, subsequent encounter
This code describes a partial traumatic amputation of the right ring finger at the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint level, meaning the finger was severed but not completely detached. This specific code is used for encounters following the initial treatment of the injury, such as for follow-up care, wound checks, or rehabilitation.
Use this code for patients presenting for ongoing management of a previously sustained partial traumatic amputation of the right ring finger at the MCP joint. This includes visits for dressing changes, monitoring for complications like infection, or physical therapy sessions related to the injury. It is not for the initial emergency room visit or surgical repair.
