Nondisp suprcndl fx w intrcndl extn low end r femr, 7thH

This code signifies a follow-up encounter for a fracture of the lower right femur, specifically a supracondylar fracture that extends into the condyles, but without displacement of the bone fragments. The initial injury was an open fracture, classified as Type I or II, and the healing process is currently delayed.

This code is appropriate for subsequent visits where a patient is being managed for a previously treated open supracondylar and intracondylar fracture of the right femur that is not healing as expected. It would be used when the physician is assessing the delayed union, planning further interventions, or monitoring the patient's progress during the delayed healing phase.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "delayed healing" and specifies the fracture as an open Type I or II.
• Verify laterality (right femur) and the specific fracture location (supracondylar with intracondylar extension).
• Confirm this is a subsequent encounter, not the initial treatment of the fracture.
