Disp fx of med condyle of r tibia, 7thG

This code signifies a displaced fracture of the medial condyle of the right tibia that is currently undergoing delayed healing. The fracture was initially treated as a closed injury, and the patient is now in a subsequent phase of care where the bone union is progressing slower than expected.

Apply this code for patients presenting for follow-up care of a right tibial medial condyle fracture where the initial treatment was non-surgical (closed reduction) and healing is not progressing at the anticipated rate. This is appropriate when the physician documents delayed union or non-union concerns for a previously treated closed fracture.

• Ensure documentation clearly specifies "delayed healing" for a closed fracture.
• Verify the laterality (right tibia) and specific anatomical site (medial condyle).
• This code is for subsequent encounters; do not use for the initial treatment phase.
