Nondisp fx of neck of r rad, subs for clos fx w delay heal

This code signifies a follow-up visit for a patient who sustained a fracture of the neck of their right radius, where the bone fragments remain in their anatomical position. The fracture is not yet fully healed, and the healing process is progressing slower than expected.

Apply this code when documenting subsequent encounters for a right radial neck fracture that was initially closed and is now exhibiting delayed union. This would typically be used during follow-up appointments where the physician is monitoring the healing progress and managing the delayed healing.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "right radius" and "neck" to differentiate from other radial fractures.
• Confirm the fracture was initially closed and that delayed healing is explicitly noted in the medical record.
• This code is for subsequent encounters; an initial encounter would use a different seventh character.
