ICD-10-CMNondisplaced fracture of coronoid process of right ulna, subsequent encounter for open fracture type I or II with routine healing
This code signifies a non-displaced break in the coronoid process of the right ulna, which is a small bony projection on the elbow joint. The fracture was initially an open fracture of type I or II, meaning there was a wound communicating with the fracture site, and it is now in the routine healing phase.
This code is appropriate for follow-up encounters when a patient is receiving ongoing care for a previously diagnosed open type I or II coronoid process fracture of the right ulna that is healing without complications. It indicates that the fracture is stable and progressing as expected.
