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

This code signifies a right shoulder acromial process fracture that was initially nondisplaced but is now healing incorrectly, resulting in a malunion. The patient is in a subsequent phase of care for this specific fracture complication.

Apply this code when a patient presents for follow-up care, rehabilitation, or further treatment of a previously diagnosed right acromial fracture that has healed in an anatomically incorrect position. This indicates the fracture has united, but with significant deformity or angulation.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "malunion" and specifies the "right acromial process."
• Verify this is a subsequent encounter, not an initial treatment or active treatment of a nonunion.
• Confirm the original fracture was nondisplaced; if displaced, a different code would be appropriate.
