Additional Info

  • Use this code for bone discontinuity problems that are not coded anywhere else.
  • SPECIFICALLY: Malunion or Nonunion of a bone -- these refer to problems with a bone failing to repair itself some time after a fracture of any cause (traumatic or nontraumatic).
  • Thus, the fracture is no longer current, but the bone never knitted, or knitted poorly/incorrectly.
  • Note that this is a one-size-fit-all code in that it does not include the specific bone that failed to knit properly.
