Nondisp fx of base of nk of unsp femr, 7thB

This diagnosis code identifies a fracture located at the base of the femoral neck that has not shifted from its anatomical position. It specifically applies when the skin overlying the fracture is broken, but the wound is relatively clean and small, indicating a low-energy injury.

Apply this code for initial treatment of a patient presenting with a non-displaced open fracture of the femoral neck base, where the open wound is classified as Gustilo-Anderson Type I or II. This is appropriate for the first encounter for definitive care of the injury.

• Confirm the fracture is explicitly documented as "nondisplaced" and located at the "base of the neck of the femur."
• Verify the open fracture type is specified as Gustilo-Anderson Type I or II. If not specified, query the provider.
• Ensure this is the patient's initial encounter for this specific injury; subsequent care would require a different encounter character.
