Nondisp suprcndl fx w intrcndl extn low end r femr, 7thB

This code describes a fracture of the lower end of the right femur, specifically involving the area above the condyles and extending into the condyles themselves. The bone fragments remain in their normal anatomical alignment (nondisplaced), and the fracture has broken through the skin, classified as an open fracture type I or II.

Use this code for the initial treatment of a patient presenting with a right distal femur fracture that is both supracondylar and intracondylar, but without significant displacement of the bone fragments. This code is specifically for open fractures where the skin integrity has been compromised, categorized as Gustilo-Anderson Type I or II.

• Ensure documentation clearly specifies "nondisplaced" and "intracondylar extension" for accurate code assignment.
• Verify the encounter is for the initial treatment of the open fracture. Subsequent care will require a different encounter character.
• Confirm the Gustilo-Anderson classification is Type I or II for the open fracture component.
