Nondisp fx of med condyle of unsp femr, 7thM

This code signifies a previously sustained, non-displaced fracture of the medial condyle of an unspecified femur that has failed to heal properly (nonunion). The initial injury was an open fracture, classified as type I or II, indicating a relatively clean wound with minimal soft tissue damage. This code is used for follow-up care of this specific complication.

Apply this code for subsequent encounters when a patient is being treated for a nonunion of a nondisplaced medial femoral condyle fracture. The original injury must have been an open fracture type I or II. This would include scenarios such as ongoing management, surgical intervention for the nonunion, or follow-up appointments related to the delayed healing.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "nonunion" and specifies the original fracture as an "open fracture type I or II."
• Verify the fracture is of the "medial condyle" and "nondisplaced" to accurately apply this specific code.
• This code is for subsequent encounters; an initial encounter for the nonunion would use a different code.
