Nondisp fx of olecran pro w intartic extn r ulna, 7thE

This code signifies a follow-up encounter for a right elbow fracture involving the olecranon process, which extends into the joint but remains in its normal anatomical position. The initial injury was an open fracture, classified as Type I or II, and is now healing without complications.

Apply this code for subsequent visits where a patient is receiving ongoing care for a previously diagnosed open, intra-articular, nondisplaced olecranon fracture of the right ulna that is progressing to routine healing. This would include follow-up appointments for cast checks, physical therapy evaluations, or wound care related to the healing fracture.

• Ensure documentation specifies "subsequent encounter" and "routine healing" for this specific fracture type.
• Confirm the fracture is nondisplaced and has intra-articular extension.
• Verify the initial injury was an open fracture, Type I or II, as this impacts the seventh character.
