Displ transverse fx right acetab, subs for fx w routn heal

This code describes a follow-up encounter for a patient who sustained a break in the transverse portion of the right acetabulum, where the bone fragments are not properly aligned. At this stage, the fracture is healing as expected without complications.

This code is appropriate for subsequent visits when a patient with a previously diagnosed displaced transverse fracture of the right acetabulum is undergoing routine follow-up care. This includes appointments for cast changes, wound checks, or imaging to monitor healing progress, provided the healing is proceeding normally.

• Ensure documentation specifies "right" acetabulum and "transverse" fracture type.
• Verify the encounter is for a "subsequent" visit and that healing is explicitly noted as "routine" or "normal."
• Do not use this code if the fracture is nonunion, malunion, or experiencing delayed healing; different codes apply for those scenarios.
