Nondisp fx of r tibial spin, 7thH

This code signifies a fracture of the right tibial spine that is not displaced, meaning the bone fragments are still in their normal alignment. It specifically indicates that this is a follow-up encounter for an open fracture (where the skin was broken) of type I or II, and the healing process is taking longer than expected.

Use this code for patients presenting for ongoing care of a right tibial spine fracture that was initially open (type I or II) and is now experiencing delayed union. This applies to situations where the patient is past the initial acute treatment phase but the bone has not yet fully healed.

• Ensure documentation specifies "right" tibial spine and "nondisplaced."
• Confirm the original fracture was an open type I or II and that healing is explicitly noted as "delayed."
• Do not use for initial encounters or for fractures that are healing normally.
