ICD-10-CMDisplaced intertrochanteric fracture of right femur, subsequent encounter for closed fracture with routine healing
This code signifies a follow-up visit for a patient who previously sustained a fracture between the greater and lesser trochanters of the right femur, where the bone fragments were not in their normal alignment. At this subsequent encounter, the fracture is being managed non-surgically or has been surgically stabilized, and is progressing through the expected healing process without complications.
Apply this code for follow-up appointments where a patient with a previously diagnosed displaced intertrochanteric fracture of the right femur is being monitored for routine healing. This includes visits for cast changes, wound checks, or physical therapy evaluations during the normal recovery period of a closed fracture.
