Disp fx of base of neck of left femur, init for clos fx

This code signifies a break in the upper part of the left thigh bone, specifically at the base of the femoral neck, where the bone fragments are no longer in their normal alignment. This type of fracture is often associated with significant trauma or falls, particularly in older adults.

Apply this code for the initial treatment of a patient presenting with a newly diagnosed, closed fracture at the base of the neck of the left femur, where imaging confirms displacement of the bone fragments. This includes scenarios such as emergency department visits or initial hospital admissions for fracture management.

• Ensure documentation specifies "left" femur and "base of neck" for accurate coding.
• Verify that the fracture is explicitly described as "displaced" and "closed" in the medical record.
• Confirm this is the "initial encounter" for treatment of this specific fracture.
