Nondisp fx of med condyle of l femr, 7thP

This code signifies a fracture of the inner portion of the lower left thigh bone that has not shifted out of alignment. It is used when the patient is receiving follow-up care for this specific fracture, and the bone is healing incorrectly, resulting in a malunion.

Apply this code for patients presenting for ongoing treatment of a previously diagnosed, nondisplaced medial condyle fracture of the left femur. This is appropriate when documentation indicates the fracture is healing with a malunion, and the encounter is not for initial treatment.

• Ensure documentation explicitly states "nondisplaced" and "medial condyle" of the "left femur."
• Confirm the encounter is "subsequent" and that "malunion" is documented for the closed fracture.
• Do not use for initial fracture care or if the fracture is healing normally or with nonunion.
