Displ unsp fx right lesser toe(s), subs for fx w routn heal

This code describes a fracture of an unspecified lesser toe on the right foot that is displaced. The patient is in the healing phase, and the encounter is for routine follow-up of the fracture. The "D" in the seventh character indicates a subsequent encounter for a fracture with routine healing.

Use this code for follow-up visits where a patient is recovering from a displaced right lesser toe fracture and healing is progressing as expected. This applies when the initial treatment has been rendered and the patient is now in the routine healing phase, without complications or delayed healing.

• Ensure the documentation specifies a displaced fracture of a right lesser toe.
• Confirm the encounter is for routine follow-up during the healing phase, not for initial treatment or complications.
• Verify the laterality (right) and the specific toe (lesser toe, unspecified) are clearly documented.
