Disp fx of r ulna styloid pro, 7thH

This code signifies a fracture of the styloid process on the right ulna that is no longer in its anatomical position. It specifically applies to an open fracture (Type I or II) that is not healing as expected during a follow-up visit.

Use this code for subsequent encounters when a patient presents with a previously diagnosed displaced open fracture (Gustilo-Anderson Type I or II) of the right ulnar styloid process, and the physician documents delayed healing. This would be appropriate during follow-up appointments for fracture management where healing progress is slower than anticipated.

• Ensure documentation clearly specifies "displaced" and "right ulna styloid process."
• Verify the encounter is "subsequent" and that "delayed healing" of an "open fracture type I or II" is explicitly stated.
• Always sequence this code with any applicable external cause codes and codes for complications if present.
