Nondisp fx of 2nd metatarsal bone, r ft, 7thG

This code signifies a stable, non-placed break in the second metatarsal bone of the right foot. It specifically indicates that the patient is in a later stage of healing, but the fracture is not progressing as expected.

Use this code for follow-up encounters where a patient with a previously diagnosed right second metatarsal fracture is experiencing delayed union. This applies when the fracture fragments are still aligned, but the healing process is prolonged.

• Ensure documentation specifies "nondisplaced" and "delayed healing" for the right second metatarsal.
• Verify this is a subsequent encounter, not the initial treatment.
• Confirm the specific bone (second metatarsal) and laterality (right foot) are clearly documented.
