Nondisp suprcndl fx w/o intrcndl extn low end r femr, 7thP

This code describes a right femur fracture located above the condyles, which has not displaced and does not extend into the joint. The fracture is in a subsequent phase of care, specifically addressing a malunion where the bone has healed in an incorrect anatomical position, but the fracture itself was initially treated non-surgically (closed).

Use this code for follow-up encounters where a patient is being treated for a malunion of a previously sustained, nondisplaced supracondylar fracture of the right femur that did not involve the joint. This applies when the initial fracture was managed without open reduction.

• Ensure documentation clearly specifies "malunion" and "subsequent encounter" for a closed fracture.
• Verify the fracture is nondisplaced and does not have intracondylar extension.
• Laterality (right femur) is crucial for accurate coding.
