Nondisp fx of lateral end r clavicle, 7thD

This code signifies a fracture of the outer portion of the right collarbone that has not shifted from its normal anatomical position. The patient is in a follow-up phase of treatment, and the fracture is healing as expected without complications.

Apply this code for subsequent encounters when a patient is being monitored for a previously diagnosed nondisplaced fracture of the lateral end of the right clavicle. This is appropriate when the physician documents routine healing progress, such as during cast changes, follow-up X-rays showing callus formation, or physical therapy sessions for a healing fracture.

• Ensure documentation specifies "nondisplaced" and "lateral end" of the right clavicle.
• The "D" seventh character indicates a subsequent encounter for routine healing; do not use for initial treatment or delayed healing.
• Confirm the encounter is for the fracture itself, not for unrelated conditions.
