Nondisp avuls fx tuberosity of unsp calcaneus, 7thD

This code signifies a follow-up visit for an avulsion fracture of the calcaneal tuberosity, where the bone fragment has not shifted from its original position. The fracture is healing as expected without complications.

Apply this code for subsequent encounters when a patient is receiving ongoing care for a nondisplaced avulsion fracture of the heel bone's tuberosity, and the healing process is progressing routinely. This would typically be used after the initial treatment and during follow-up appointments.

• Ensure documentation specifies "nondisplaced" and "avulsion fracture of tuberosity of calcaneus."
• The "D" seventh character indicates a subsequent encounter for routine healing.
• Confirm the laterality (left, right, or unspecified) is clearly documented.
