Nondisp fx of med cuneiform of r ft, 7thG

This code signifies a fracture of the medial cuneiform bone in the right foot that is not displaced. The "G" suffix indicates that the patient is in a subsequent encounter for this fracture, and the healing process is delayed. This implies the fracture has not healed within the expected timeframe.

This code is appropriate for follow-up visits where a patient with a previously diagnosed nondisplaced right medial cuneiform fracture is presenting with evidence of delayed union or non-union. It would be used when the physician is assessing the ongoing healing process and noting a slower-than-anticipated recovery.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "nondisplaced" and specifies the "medial cuneiform" of the "right foot."
• The "G" suffix is crucial and should only be used when delayed healing is explicitly documented by the provider.
• Distinguish from initial encounters (A/B) or encounters for routine healing (D/P) or malunion (K).
