Instead, ICD-10-CM includes an instructional note at the beginning of each category of dislocation (S03, S13. S23, S33, S43, S53, S63, S73, S83, S93) that informs the user to code separately any associated open wound.
Unspecified dislocation of right sternoclavicular joint, initial encounter. S43.204A is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM S43.204A became effective on October 1, 2018.
Fractures are usually associated with dislocations, so I personally would just go with the fracture. But I suppose you could do both, wouldn't hurt. Dislocations occur at the joint; fractures occur to the bone itself. I would code both. A fracture-dislocation of the same site is coded using the fracture code.
S43.109 should not be used for reimbursement purposes as there are multiple codes below it that contain a greater level of detail. Short description: Unsp dislocation of unspecified acromioclavicular joint The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM S43.109 became effective on October 1, 2021.
S43.205AUnspecified dislocation of left sternoclavicular joint, initial encounter. S43. 205A 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 S43.

ICD-10 Code for Subluxation and dislocation of shoulder joint- S43. 0- Codify by AAPC.
Anterior dislocation of unspecified sternoclavicular joint The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM S43. 216 became effective on October 1, 2021.
The collarbone is also called the clavicle. Dislocations can occur at either end. Dislocation of the lateral end (outer) of the collarbone is very common – this is also known as an AC joint injury or shoulder separation.
Sternoclavicular dislocation refers to complete rupture of all the sternoclavicular and costoclavicular ligaments. This occurs from a single, well-defined trauma most commonly a motor vehicle accident or collision sport such as rugby or American football. The force is typically indirect on the shoulder.
Dislocation is injury to a joint that causes adjoining bones to no longer touch each other. Subluxation is a minor or incomplete dislocation in which the joint surfaces still touch but are not in normal relation to each other.
In an anterior dislocation, the arm is an abducted and externally rotated position. In the externally rotated position, the posterosuperior aspect of the humeral head abuts and drives through the anteroinferior aspect of the glenoid rim. This can damage the humeral head, glenoid labrum, or both.
ICD-10 Code for Other instability, right shoulder- M25. 311- Codify by AAPC.
One of the most common labral injuries is known as a Bankart lesion. This condition occurs when the labrum pulls off the front of the socket. This occurs most often when the shoulder dislocates. If a Bankart tear doesn't heal properly, it can cause future dislocations, instability, weakness and pain.
The glenohumeral, or shoulder, joint is a synovial joint that attaches the upper limb to the axial skeleton. It is a ball-and-socket joint, formed between the glenoid fossa of scapula (gleno-) and the head of humerus (-humeral).
Bankart lesion = avulsion of the anteroinferior capsulolabrum. Bony Bankart = fracture of the anteroinferior glenoid.
