Disp fx of body of left calcaneus, subs for fx w routn heal

This code signifies a fracture of the main part of the left heel bone that is no longer in its proper anatomical alignment. The patient is in the phase of recovery where the fracture is healing as expected without complications.

This code is appropriate for follow-up encounters after initial treatment of a displaced left calcaneal body fracture, when the physician documents routine healing. It should be used for subsequent visits where the focus is on monitoring the uncomplicated healing process.

• Ensure documentation specifies "left" calcaneus and "body" of the calcaneus.
• Confirm the fracture is explicitly noted as "displaced" and healing "routinely."
• Verify this is a subsequent encounter, not the initial treatment or an encounter for delayed/nonunion healing.
