2-part nondisp fx of surgical neck of unsp humerus, init

This code signifies a fracture of the humerus at the surgical neck, specifically a two-part break where the bone fragments remain in their normal anatomical alignment. The injury affects an unspecified shoulder, meaning the laterality (left or right) is not documented.

Apply this code when documentation confirms a non-displaced, two-part fracture of the surgical neck of the humerus, and the encounter is for the initial treatment of a closed fracture. This is appropriate when the medical record does not specify whether the injury is to the left or right humerus.

• Ensure "nondisplaced" and "2-part" are explicitly documented for the surgical neck fracture.
• Only use this code when laterality (left or right humerus) is not specified in the medical record.
• The "A" seventh character indicates the initial encounter for active treatment of the closed fracture.
