Disp fx of coracoid pro, l shldr, subs for fx w routn heal

This code signifies a left-sided coracoid process fracture that was initially displaced but is now in a subsequent phase of healing, progressing routinely. It indicates the patient is past the initial acute treatment and the fracture is mending as expected without complications.

Apply this code for follow-up encounters where a previously diagnosed displaced left coracoid fracture is showing routine healing. This is appropriate when the provider documents ongoing fracture management and confirms the healing process is uncomplicated and on schedule. Do not use for initial treatment or if healing is delayed/complicated.

• Ensure documentation specifies "left" shoulder and "coracoid process" to support laterality and anatomical site.
• Verify the encounter is for "subsequent" care and that healing is explicitly noted as "routine" or "uncomplicated."
• Confirm the fracture was initially "displaced" as this is a specific characteristic of the code.
