Nondisp fx of body of left calcaneus, init for clos fx

This code signifies a break in the main part of the left heel bone that has not shifted out of its normal alignment. The skin over the fracture remains intact, indicating a closed injury.

Apply this code for a patient presenting with a newly diagnosed, nondisplaced fracture of the left calcaneal body. This is appropriate for the initial treatment phase of the injury, such as in an emergency department or initial orthopedic consultation.

• Confirm laterality (left) and the specific bone part (body of calcaneus) are documented.
• Verify the fracture is explicitly stated as "nondisplaced" and "closed."
• Ensure this is the patient's first encounter for this specific fracture. Subsequent care would require a different encounter character.
