Disp fx of med condyle of r tibia, 7thE

This code signifies a fracture of the inner portion of the right tibia's knee joint, where the bone fragments are no longer in their normal alignment. This specific instance refers to a follow-up visit for an open fracture (meaning the skin was broken) that was classified as Type I or Type II, and is now healing as expected without complications.

Use this code for a patient presenting for a scheduled follow-up appointment after initial treatment of an open, displaced medial condyle fracture of the right tibia. This applies when the fracture is progressing through routine healing, and the original injury was an open fracture classified as Type I or Type II.

• Ensure documentation specifies "displaced" and "medial condyle" of the right tibia.
• Verify the encounter is for "subsequent care" and the original injury was an "open fracture type I or II" with "routine healing."
• Do not use this code for initial treatment, nonunion, or malunion.
