Nondisp fx of med condyle of l femr, 7thE

This code describes a fracture of the inner portion of the lower end of the left thigh bone that has not shifted out of alignment. It specifically indicates that this is a follow-up visit for an open fracture (where the bone broke through the skin) classified as Type I or II, and the healing process is progressing as expected.

Apply this code for subsequent encounters when a patient with a previously diagnosed nondisplaced open Type I or II fracture of the medial condyle of the left femur is receiving routine follow-up care. This includes visits for cast changes, wound checks, or physical therapy where healing is uncomplicated.

• Ensure documentation specifies "subsequent encounter" and "routine healing" for an open Type I or II fracture.
• Verify the fracture is indeed nondisplaced and located on the medial condyle of the left femur.
• Do not use this code for initial treatment or if the healing is complicated (e.g., delayed union, nonunion).
