Disp fx of less trochanter of r femr, 7thH

This code describes a fracture of the lesser trochanter on the right femur that is no longer in its anatomical position. It specifically applies when the initial injury was an open fracture (Type I or II) and the healing process is taking longer than expected.

Use this code for follow-up encounters where a patient is receiving care for a right lesser trochanter fracture that was initially open and is now exhibiting delayed healing. This would include situations like continued wound care, monitoring for nonunion, or planning for revision surgery due to slow bone healing.

• Ensure documentation specifies "delayed healing" for an open fracture type I or II.
• Verify the laterality is "right" and the specific anatomical site is the "lesser trochanter."
• This is a subsequent encounter code, so it should not be used for the initial treatment of the fracture.
