Nondisp fx of body of scapula, right shoulder, init

This code signifies a break in the main part of the right shoulder blade that has not shifted out of its normal anatomical alignment. It specifically refers to the first time this injury is being treated, and the skin over the fracture remains intact.

Apply this code for patients presenting with a newly diagnosed, non-displaced fracture of the body of the right scapula, such as from a direct impact or fall. This is appropriate for the initial visit where definitive treatment or evaluation for this specific injury is being performed.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "nondisplaced" and specifies the "body" of the scapula.
• Verify the laterality is "right shoulder" and that this is the "initial encounter" for treatment.
• Confirm the fracture is "closed" (no open wound communicating with the fracture site).
