Sltr-haris Type II physeal fx phalanx of right toe, 7thD

This code describes a specific type of growth plate fracture (Salter-Harris Type II) affecting a toe bone on the right foot. It indicates that the patient is in a follow-up period for this fracture, which is now healing as expected without complications.

Use this code for a patient presenting for a follow-up visit after initial treatment of a Salter-Harris Type II fracture of a right toe phalanx. This applies when the fracture is progressing well and healing routinely, such as for cast checks, physical therapy evaluations, or routine re-imaging to confirm healing.

• Ensure documentation specifies "right toe" and "phalanx" for accurate laterality and bone.
• Confirm the encounter is for "subsequent" care and that healing is "routine" (e.g., no delayed union, nonunion, or malunion).
• Verify the fracture type is explicitly documented as Salter-Harris Type II.
