Displ Maisonneuve's fx r leg, subs for clos fx w delay heal

This code describes a specific type of ankle fracture where the fibula is broken high up in the leg (Maisonneuve's fracture) and the bone fragments are not properly aligned. This particular instance refers to a right leg injury that is currently in the healing phase, but the healing process is taking longer than expected, and the fracture site is not surgically exposed.

Use this code for follow-up encounters with a patient who has a documented Maisonneuve's fracture of the right leg that was initially displaced and is now experiencing delayed union. This applies when the fracture is being treated non-surgically (closed treatment) and the patient is seen for continued management of the delayed healing.

• Ensure documentation specifies "right leg" and "displaced" for the Maisonneuve's fracture.
• Confirm the encounter is for "subsequent" care and that "delayed healing" is explicitly noted.
• Verify the fracture is being managed as a "closed" fracture, meaning no open surgical wound is present at the fracture site.
