Fracture of femur ICD-10-CM S72. 309A is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0):
icd10 - E875: Hyperkalemia.
A type II Salter-Harris fracture is the most common pediatric physeal fracture, occurring frequently in children over 10 years of age. This fracture breaks at an angle, cutting through most of the growth plate and the metaphysis, the area above the growth plate.
Unspecified fracture of lower end of right femur, initial encounter for closed fracture. S72. 401A is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM S72.

While you can include up to 12 diagnosis codes on a single claim form, only four of those diagnosis codes can map to a specific CPT code.

The International Classification of Disease (ICD), developed and published by the World Health Organization, is the international standard for reporting diseases and health conditions. Medicare claims data include both ICD procedure and diagnosis codes across different files.
Growth plates, also called physes or epiphyseal plates, are discs of cartilage present in growing children. They are located between the middle and the end of the long bones, such as the bones of the arms and legs. Most long bones have one growth plate at each end.
Growth plate fracture Growth plates are located near the ends of your child's bones. If a fracture goes through a growth plate, it can result in a shorter or crooked limb. A growth plate fracture affects the layer of growing tissue near the ends of a child's bones.
The Salter-Harris classification system is a method used to grade fractures that occur in children and involve the growth plate, which is also known as the physis or physial plate. The classification system grades fractures according to the involvement of the physis, metaphysis, and epiphysis.
Usually, these fractures heal in four to six weeks. The length of time the injury remains immobilized in a cast or sling depends on the particular injury. Your child may need crutches to get around, if the injured limb shouldn't be weight-bearing while it's healing.
Healing usually takes about 4-6 weeks, at which time it will be safe for your child to return to sports and activities. It is very rare for a Salter-Harris I fracture to cause problems with the growth of the distal fibula (less than 1% of fractures).
Grade II fractures have larger soft-tissue injuries, measuring more than one centimeter. 3. Grade III Open Fracture. Grade III open fractures represent the most severe injuries and include three specific subtypes of injuries.
With proper care, the vast majority of growth plate injuries heal without complication. This will typically involve a few weeks or months in a cast, depending on the location and severity of the injury.
