Oth osteopor w current path fracture, right femur, sequela

This code signifies a healed or chronic pathological fracture of the right femur that occurred due to osteoporosis, where the osteoporosis itself is not further specified as postmenopausal, age-related, or drug-induced. The "sequela" indicator denotes that the fracture is no longer acute but its long-term effects or complications are being addressed.

Apply this code when documentation indicates a patient is presenting for follow-up care, management of complications, or treatment of residual effects from a past osteoporotic fracture of the right femur. The medical record should clearly state that the fracture is no longer acute and is a consequence of underlying osteoporosis.

• Ensure the documentation specifies "sequela" or indicates a healed/chronic fracture, not an acute one.
• Do not use this code for acute osteoporotic fractures; refer to the M80.0- or M80.8- series without the "S" seventh character.
• Always sequence this code after any codes for the specific complications or residual conditions being treated due to the sequela.
