Nondisp fx of acromial pro, r shldr, subs for fx w nonunion

This code signifies a patient presenting with a right shoulder injury involving a fracture of the acromial process that is not displaced. The key aspect is that this is a follow-up encounter for a previously diagnosed fracture that has failed to heal properly, indicating a nonunion.

Apply this code when a patient returns for ongoing management of a right acromial process fracture that has been identified as a nonunion. This would be used after the initial treatment phase, during subsequent visits for monitoring, further intervention, or assessment of the unhealed fracture.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "nonunion" for the right acromial process fracture.
• Verify this is a subsequent encounter, not the initial treatment or a routine follow-up for a healing fracture.
• Confirm the fracture is specifically of the acromial process and on the right side.
