Disp fx of right tibial spine, subs for clos fx w delay heal

This code signifies a right tibial spine fracture that is displaced and has not yet healed, with the patient presenting for follow-up care. The fracture is being managed non-surgically (closed treatment) but is experiencing a delay in the normal healing process.

Apply this code for patients presenting for a subsequent visit related to a displaced right tibial spine fracture that was initially treated non-surgically and is now demonstrating delayed healing. This would be used when the patient is still under active treatment for the fracture's healing.

• Ensure documentation specifies "displaced" and "right tibial spine" for accurate laterality and fracture type.
• Confirm the encounter is for "subsequent" care and that "delayed healing" is explicitly documented.
• Pair with an external cause code if the mechanism of injury is known and relevant.
