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

This code signifies a fracture of the inner bony prominence at the lower end of the left upper arm bone (humerus) that was initially nondisplaced but has healed in an imperfect alignment. The patient is currently undergoing follow-up care for this malunited fracture.

This code is appropriate for encounters where a patient is being treated for complications arising from a previously sustained, nondisplaced medial condyle fracture of the left humerus that has healed with malunion. This includes visits for assessment, physical therapy, or planning for corrective surgery related to the malunion.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "malunion" and specifies the left humerus and medial condyle.
• Verify that the initial fracture was indeed nondisplaced to justify this specific code.
• This "P" seventh character indicates a subsequent encounter for a fracture with malunion; do not use for initial treatment or routine healing.
