Nondisp fx of navicular of left foot, init for clos fx

This code signifies a break in the navicular bone of the left foot that has not shifted from its normal anatomical position. The fracture is contained within the skin, meaning there is no open wound communicating with the bone.

Apply this code for the initial treatment of a patient presenting with a newly diagnosed, non-displaced fracture of the left foot's navicular bone. This is appropriate for emergency department visits, initial orthopedic consultations, or primary care evaluations where the fracture is first identified and managed.

• Ensure documentation specifies "nondisplaced" and "left foot" for accurate code assignment.
• Confirm the encounter is the "initial encounter" for this specific injury.
• Verify the fracture is "closed" and not an open fracture.
