Nondisp fx of nk of 2nd MC bone, r hand, 7thD

This code indicates a fracture of the neck of the second metacarpal bone in the right hand that is not displaced. It signifies that the patient is in a subsequent phase of care, and the fracture is healing as expected without complications.

Use this code for follow-up visits where a patient is being monitored for a previously diagnosed, nondisplaced fracture of the second metacarpal neck of the right hand. This applies when the fracture is progressing through routine healing, and no complications or delayed healing are noted.

• Ensure documentation specifies "nondisplaced" and identifies the "second metacarpal" of the "right hand."
• Confirm the encounter is for routine follow-up during the healing phase, not initial treatment or treatment of complications.
• The "D" seventh character indicates a subsequent encounter for routine healing; use other seventh characters for initial treatment or complications.
