Nondisp fx of body of scapula, right shoulder, sequela

This code signifies a long-term complication or late effect stemming from a previously sustained, non-displaced fracture of the main body of the right shoulder blade. The initial injury has healed, but the patient is experiencing residual issues directly attributable to that specific fracture.

Use this code when documenting a patient presenting with ongoing pain, limited range of motion, or other functional deficits in the right shoulder, and the medical record clearly links these symptoms to a past, non-displaced fracture of the scapular body. This code is appropriate for follow-up visits addressing the chronic consequences of the original injury, not the acute treatment phase.

• Always ensure documentation explicitly states the condition is a "sequela" or "late effect" of the prior fracture.
• Do not use this code for the initial treatment of the fracture or for acute complications.
• Verify the laterality (right shoulder) and the specific bone (scapula body) are accurately documented.
