Disp fx of med epicondyl of unsp humer, 7thG

This code describes a fracture where a piece of bone has been pulled away from the medial epicondyle of the humerus due to a strong ligament or tendon pull, and the patient is in a subsequent phase of care where the fracture is not healing at the expected rate. This specific injury affects the inner bony prominence of the elbow, which serves as an attachment point for forearm muscles.

Use this code for a patient presenting for follow-up care of a previously diagnosed avulsion fracture of the medial epicondyle of either the left or right humerus, where the healing process is progressing slower than anticipated. This would apply to encounters for cast changes, physical therapy, or re-evaluation of the fracture site when delayed union is identified.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "delayed healing" for the specified fracture.
• Confirm the fracture is an "avulsion" type and located at the "medial epicondyle."
• Verify this is a "subsequent encounter" and not the initial treatment or a sequela.
