ICD-10-CMNondisplaced fracture of greater tuberosity of unspecified humerus, subsequent encounter for fracture with routine healing
This code describes a follow-up encounter for a patient with a non-displaced fracture of the greater tuberosity of the humerus. At this stage, the fracture is healing routinely without complications. It signifies that the initial treatment is progressing as expected.
Use this code for subsequent visits where a patient's non-displaced greater tuberosity fracture is being monitored and shows signs of normal healing. This applies after the initial treatment and before the fracture is fully healed. It's appropriate when the physician documents routine follow-up for a healing fracture.
