Disp fx of intermed cuneiform of r ft, 7thG

This code signifies a fracture of the intermediate cuneiform bone in the right foot that is no longer in its anatomical alignment. The "G" seventh character indicates that the patient is receiving active treatment for the fracture, but the healing process is taking longer than expected.

This code is appropriate for follow-up encounters where a patient with a previously diagnosed displaced right intermediate cuneiform fracture is still undergoing treatment, and the physician notes delayed healing. This could include situations where the fracture site is not showing expected callus formation or union within the typical timeframe.

• Ensure documentation clearly specifies "displaced" and "right foot" for the intermediate cuneiform.
• The "G" seventh character is crucial for indicating delayed healing during active treatment.
• Differentiate from nonunion (K) or malunion (P) which represent different stages of healing complications.
