Nondisp fx of intermed cuneiform of l ft, 7thP

This code signifies a previously treated fracture of the intermediate cuneiform bone in the left foot that has healed in an anatomically incorrect position (malunion). The fracture itself is not displaced, meaning the bone fragments are still aligned, but the healing process has resulted in a deformity.

This code is appropriate for follow-up encounters where a patient is being managed for a left intermediate cuneiform fracture that has healed with malunion. This could include evaluation for pain, functional limitations, or consideration of corrective procedures related to the malunion. It is used after the initial treatment phase for the acute fracture.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "malunion" and specifies the "intermediate cuneiform" of the "left foot."
• Verify that the encounter is for follow-up care related to the malunion, not the initial treatment of the acute fracture.
• Distinguish from nonunion (failure to heal) or delayed union (slow healing) as these have different codes.
