Nondisp fx of base of nk of l femr, 7thD

This code signifies a fracture located at the base of the femoral neck on the left side, which has not shifted from its original position. The patient is in a follow-up phase of treatment, and the fracture is healing as expected without surgical intervention.

This code is appropriate for documenting subsequent encounters for a left femoral neck fracture that was initially treated non-surgically (e.g., with casting or bracing). It applies when the fracture is progressing through routine healing stages, such as at follow-up appointments for cast checks, imaging reviews, or physical therapy assessments.

• Ensure documentation specifies "nondisplaced" and "base of neck" for accurate site specificity.
• Verify the encounter is for routine healing of a closed fracture, not an open one or a complication.
• Confirm the laterality is "left" to match the code's specificity.
