Disp fx of med condyle of unsp humer, subs for fx w nonunion

This code signifies a fracture of the medial condyle of the humerus (upper arm bone) that is no longer in its anatomical position, where the specific side (left or right) is not documented. The patient is in a subsequent phase of care for this fracture, and it has failed to heal properly, indicating a nonunion.

Use this code for follow-up encounters with a patient who previously sustained a displaced medial condyle fracture of an unspecified humerus, and the fracture has not united. This applies when the physician is managing the nonunion, such as during evaluation for surgical intervention or ongoing conservative management.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "nonunion" for the fracture.
• Only use this code when the laterality of the humerus is not specified in the medical record.
• Pair with external cause codes (V, W, X, Y) if the cause of the initial fracture is relevant and documented.
