Nondisp fx of 2nd metatarsal bone, l ft, 7thD

This code indicates a follow-up visit for a patient who sustained a break in their second metatarsal bone in the left foot. The fracture is not displaced, meaning the bone fragments are still in their normal alignment, and the healing process is progressing as expected without complications.

Apply this code for subsequent encounters where a patient with a previously diagnosed, nondisplaced left second metatarsal fracture is seen for routine follow-up. This includes appointments for cast changes, re-evaluation of healing progress via imaging, or general monitoring during the expected healing period.

• Ensure the encounter is for a follow-up visit, not the initial treatment.
• Verify the fracture is specifically of the second metatarsal and located in the left foot.
• Confirm documentation indicates "routine healing" or similar language suggesting an uncomplicated recovery.
