Nondisp fx of less trochanter of r femr, 7thD

This code signifies a fracture of the lesser trochanter on the right femur that has not shifted from its normal anatomical position. The patient is in a later stage of healing, with the fracture mending as expected without complications, and the skin over the fracture site remains intact.

Apply this code for follow-up encounters where a patient is receiving routine care for a previously diagnosed, nondisplaced, closed lesser trochanteric fracture of the right femur. This typically includes visits for cast checks, physical therapy assessments, or general monitoring during the normal healing process.

• Ensure documentation specifies "nondisplaced" and "lesser trochanter" of the right femur.
• The "D" seventh character indicates a subsequent encounter for routine healing of a closed fracture.
• Do not use for initial treatment or for fractures with delayed healing, nonunion, or malunion.
