Nondisp fx of neck of unsp talus, subs for fx w routn heal

This code describes a follow-up visit for a patient who sustained a break in the neck of the talus bone, where the bone fragments are still in their normal alignment. The fracture is healing as expected without complications.

Apply this code for subsequent encounters when a patient with a nondisplaced talar neck fracture is receiving routine follow-up care and the fracture is progressing through normal healing stages. This would include visits for cast changes, physical therapy assessments, or imaging to confirm continued routine healing.

• Ensure documentation specifies "nondisplaced" and "neck of talus" for accurate coding.
• The "D" seventh character indicates a subsequent encounter for routine healing.
• Do not use for initial treatment or for encounters involving delayed healing or nonunion.
