Displ midcervical fx l femr, 7thF

This code signifies a displaced fracture in the middle portion of the left femur's neck that was initially an open fracture (Type IIIA, IIIB, or IIIC). The patient is currently in a subsequent phase of care, and the fracture is healing routinely without complications.

Apply this code for follow-up encounters when a patient with a previously diagnosed and treated open, displaced midcervical left femur fracture is demonstrating expected healing. This is appropriate for routine post-operative checks or ongoing management during the healing process.

• Ensure the documentation specifies "displaced" and "midcervical" for the left femur.
• Verify the initial injury was an open fracture classified as Type IIIA, IIIB, or IIIC.
• Confirm the encounter is for a subsequent phase of care with routine healing noted.
