Disp fx of med condyle of unsp femr, 7thK

This code signifies a fracture of the inner part of the lower thigh bone that has shifted out of alignment. It specifically indicates that the fracture is not healing properly (nonunion) and the patient is presenting for follow-up care, with the skin over the fracture remaining intact.

This code is appropriate for encounters where a patient is being treated for a previously diagnosed displaced medial condyle femur fracture that has failed to unite. This would include follow-up appointments for ongoing management, such as cast changes, physical therapy assessments, or discussions regarding surgical intervention for the nonunion.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "nonunion" for the fracture.
• Verify the encounter is for a "subsequent encounter" and not the initial treatment.
• Confirm the fracture is "closed" (no open wound communicating with the fracture site).
