Other osteopor with current path fx, right pelvis, sequela

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

Apply this code when documentation clearly states a past pathological fracture of the right pelvis, caused by osteoporosis, and the patient is presenting for follow-up care related to the long-term effects or complications of that fracture. This code is appropriate when the fracture has healed but residual issues, such as pain, deformity, or functional limitation, are being managed.

• Ensure documentation specifies "pathological fracture" and the "right pelvis" as the fracture site.
• The "sequela" character indicates a healed fracture with ongoing effects; do not use for acute or active fractures.
• Always code the underlying osteoporosis first, if known and applicable, before this sequela code.
