Nondisp fx of med condyle of l humer, subs for fx w nonunion

This code describes a fracture of the inner part of the lower left upper arm bone that is not out of alignment, and the patient is currently receiving care for a complication where the bone fragments have failed to heal together. This indicates an ongoing treatment phase for a non-healing fracture of the medial humeral condyle.

Use this code when documenting follow-up care for a patient whose previously diagnosed nondisplaced medial condyle fracture of the left humerus has not united. This applies to situations where interventions are being performed to address the nonunion, such as bone grafting or revision surgery.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "nonunion" and specifies the left humerus and medial condyle.
• Verify the fracture was initially nondisplaced.
• This is a "subsequent encounter" code; do not use for initial treatment of the fracture.
