M80.851G
ICD-10-CMOther osteoporosis with current pathological fracture, right femur, subsequent encounter for fracture with delayed healing
This code signifies a patient diagnosed with osteoporosis, experiencing a current pathological fracture of the right femur, and who is in a subsequent phase of care where the fracture healing is delayed. The fracture is a direct consequence of the underlying osteoporotic condition, not from significant trauma.
Apply this code when a patient with osteoporosis presents for follow-up care of a right femoral fracture that occurred due to their bone fragility, and the physician's documentation explicitly states delayed healing. This is appropriate for encounters after the initial treatment of the fracture.
