Displaced artic fx head of r femur, init for opn fx type I/2

This code signifies a fracture involving the head of the right femur, where the bone fragments are no longer in their normal anatomical alignment and the fracture extends into the joint surface. It specifically indicates an open fracture, meaning the skin and soft tissues are compromised, exposing the bone, and is classified as either Type I or Type II according to the Gustilo-Anderson classification.

Apply this code for patients presenting with a newly diagnosed, displaced fracture of the right femoral head that is open to the environment. This is appropriate for the initial treatment phase, such as during emergency department visits, surgical admissions, or initial consultations for this specific injury.

• Ensure documentation clearly specifies "displaced" and "articular" involvement of the femoral head.
• Confirm the fracture is explicitly documented as an "open fracture type I or II" to justify this specific code.
• Verify this is the patient's initial encounter for this particular injury; subsequent encounters will require a different seventh character.
