Nondisp fx of glenoid cav of scapula, r shldr, 7thP

This code signifies a fracture of the glenoid cavity (socket of the shoulder joint) in the right shoulder that is not displaced, meaning the bone fragments remain in their normal anatomical position. The patient is in a subsequent phase of treatment for this fracture, and it has healed incorrectly, resulting in a malunion.

Use this code for follow-up encounters where a patient with a previously diagnosed nondisplaced right glenoid cavity fracture is being treated for complications related to the fracture healing with a malunion. This would apply when the malunion is documented as the reason for the current encounter, such as for evaluation of pain, limited range of motion, or planning for corrective surgery.

• Ensure documentation clearly specifies "nondisplaced" and "right shoulder" for the glenoid cavity fracture.
• Verify the encounter is for a "subsequent encounter" and that "malunion" is explicitly documented as a complication of the fracture healing.
• Do not use for initial fracture treatment or for nonunion, which is a separate complication.
