Disp fx of cuboid bone of l foot, subs for fx w routn heal

This code describes a fracture of the cuboid bone in the left foot that has been previously diagnosed and is now in a routine healing phase. The fracture is specifically noted as displaced, meaning the bone fragments are not in their normal anatomical alignment.

This code is appropriate for follow-up encounters where a patient is receiving ongoing care for a previously diagnosed displaced cuboid fracture of the left foot, and the healing process is progressing as expected without complications. It signifies that the initial treatment has been rendered and the patient is now in a routine recovery period.

• Ensure documentation specifies "left foot" and "cuboid bone" for accurate laterality and bone identification.
• Confirm the "subsequent encounter" and "routine healing" status in the physician's notes.
• Do not use for initial treatment or encounters with delayed healing, nonunion, or malunion.
