Nondisp fx of med condyle of l femr, 7thG

This code signifies a fracture of the inner portion of the left femoral condyle that has not shifted from its anatomical position. The patient is in a later stage of recovery, and the fracture is healing slower than expected, but the skin remains intact over the injury site.

Apply this code when documenting follow-up care for a patient with a previously diagnosed nondisplaced medial condyle fracture of the left femur. This is appropriate when the physician notes delayed healing of the closed fracture during a subsequent visit.

• Ensure documentation explicitly states "nondisplaced" and identifies the "medial condyle" of the left femur.
• The "G" seventh character indicates delayed healing, so confirm this status is clearly documented.
• Verify the encounter is for follow-up care, not the initial treatment of the fracture.
