Nondisp fx of neck of scapula, left shoulder, sequela

This code signifies a long-term complication or late effect resulting from a previously sustained, non-displaced fracture of the neck of the left scapula. This could include persistent pain, limited range of motion, or other functional impairments directly attributable to the old injury, even after the fracture itself has healed.

Use this code when documenting a patient presenting with ongoing issues directly related to a past, non-displaced fracture of the left scapular neck. This is appropriate for follow-up visits addressing chronic pain, stiffness, or functional deficits that are sequelae of the original injury, rather than the acute fracture itself.

• Always ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to the previous fracture.
• This code indicates a sequela, so it should not be used for the initial or subsequent encounter for the acute fracture.
• Consider co-reporting with codes for specific symptoms or conditions if they are also being treated (e.g., chronic pain, adhesive capsulitis).
