Nondisp fx of med condyle of l femr, 7thD

This code describes a fracture of the inner portion of the lower left thigh bone that has not shifted out of alignment. The patient is in a follow-up phase of treatment, and the fracture is healing as expected without complications, managed without surgical intervention.

This code is appropriate for subsequent encounters when a patient with a previously diagnosed nondisplaced medial condyle fracture of the left femur is seen for routine follow-up. It signifies that the fracture is closed (skin intact) and progressing through a normal healing process. Use this code for cast changes, routine X-ray checks, or physical therapy visits during the healing phase.

• Ensure documentation specifies "nondisplaced" and "medial condyle" of the left femur.
• Confirm the encounter is for subsequent care and not the initial treatment.
• Verify that the healing is routine; if delayed, nonunion, or malunion, a different seventh character is required.
