Nondisp fx of lateral end l clavicle, 7thD

This code signifies a fracture of the outer portion of the left collarbone that has not shifted from its normal anatomical position. The patient is in a phase of routine recovery, indicating expected healing without complications.

Apply this code when documenting follow-up care for a patient with a previously diagnosed nondisplaced lateral clavicle fracture on the left side. This is appropriate for subsequent visits where the fracture is progressing as anticipated.

• Ensure documentation specifies "left" clavicle and "nondisplaced" to support this code.
• The "D" seventh character indicates a subsequent encounter for routine healing; do not use for initial treatment or delayed healing.
• Verify that the fracture location is specifically the "lateral end" of the clavicle.
