Partial traumatic amp of right foot at ankle level, init

This code signifies a traumatic injury where the right foot has been partially severed at the ankle joint, but some connection to the body remains. This is not a complete detachment, but a significant and severe injury to the foot at the ankle level due to an external force.

Apply this code for initial encounters involving patients presenting with a traumatic, incomplete amputation of the right foot at the ankle. This includes scenarios such as crush injuries, industrial accidents, or severe lacerations that result in a partial severance of the foot. It is used when the patient is first seen for this specific injury.

• Ensure documentation clearly specifies "partial" or "incomplete" amputation of the right foot at the ankle.
• Verify the encounter is the "initial encounter" for this specific injury. Subsequent care would use a different seventh character.
• Distinguish from complete amputations or partial amputations at other foot levels.
