Disp fx of intermed cuneiform of l ft, 7thK

This code signifies a fracture of the intermediate cuneiform bone in the left foot that has shifted from its normal anatomical position. The fracture has failed to heal properly, resulting in a nonunion, and the patient is receiving follow-up care for this ongoing complication.

This code is appropriate for documenting subsequent encounters where a patient with a previously diagnosed displaced intermediate cuneiform fracture of the left foot is being treated for a nonunion. This includes visits for evaluation, management of nonunion, or preparation for surgical intervention to address the nonunion.

• Ensure documentation clearly specifies "displaced" and "nonunion" for the intermediate cuneiform of the left foot.
• Verify this is a subsequent encounter, not the initial treatment for the fracture.
• Pair with an external cause code if the fracture was due to an external event.
