ICD-10-CMNondisplaced fracture of medial condyle of right tibia, subsequent encounter for open fracture type I or II with delayed healing
This code signifies a right tibial medial condyle fracture that is not displaced, meaning the bone fragments remain in their anatomical position. The fracture was initially an open fracture (skin broken) of type I or II severity, and the patient is now in a subsequent phase of care where the healing process is taking longer than expected.
Apply this code when documenting follow-up care for a patient whose right medial tibial condyle fracture, initially open type I or II, is experiencing delayed union. This includes scenarios where the patient is undergoing continued treatment, monitoring, or rehabilitation due to the prolonged healing time.
