Nondisp suprcndl fx w/o intrcndl extn low end r femr, 7thE

This code describes a follow-up encounter for a patient who sustained a supracondylar fracture of the distal right femur that did not extend into the joint and was not displaced. The initial injury was an open fracture, classified as Type I or II, and is now healing as expected without complications.

Use this code for subsequent encounters when a patient with a previously diagnosed open, nondisplaced supracondylar fracture of the right femur (without intracondylar extension) is presenting for routine follow-up care during the healing phase. This applies when the fracture is progressing to healing without any noted delays or complications.

• Ensure the encounter is for follow-up care, not the initial treatment.
• Verify the fracture is specifically supracondylar, nondisplaced, and without intracondylar extension.
• Confirm the original injury was an open fracture (Type I or II) and is now undergoing routine healing.
