The ICD-10-CM code S32.309K might also be used to specify conditions or terms like closed fracture of ilium, closed fracture of innominate bone, closed fracture pelvis, anterior inferior iliac spine, closed fracture pelvis, anterior superior iliac spine, closed fracture pelvis, iliac wing , fracture of iliac crest, etc.
In ICD-10-CM, injuries are grouped by body part rather than by category, so all injuries of a specific site (such as head and neck) are grouped together rather than groupings of all fractures or all open wounds.

151B for Displaced avulsion fracture (chip fracture) of right talus, initial encounter for open fracture is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes .
The ilium (plural: ilia; adjective: iliac) is a bone and part of the innominate bone making up the bony pelvis. Terms relating to the ilium include iliopsoas and iliacus.
pelvisIliac Bone is the upper crest or "wings" on the pelvic girdle. The uppermost and widest of the three bones constituting either of the lateral halves of the pelvis. Iliac bone is commonly used for autogenous bone grafts in spine surgery.
pelvisThe anterior superior iliac spine (abbreviated: ASIS) is a bony projection of the iliac bone, and an important landmark of surface anatomy. It refers to the anterior extremity of the iliac crest of the pelvis. It provides attachment for the inguinal ligament, and the sartorius muscle.
Fracture of other parts of pelvis, initial encounter for closed fracture. S32. 89XA 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 S32.
An avulsion fracture occurs when a small chunk of bone attached to a tendon or ligament gets pulled away from the main part of the bone.
Avulsion fracture (chip fracture) of talus The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM S92. 15 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of S92. 15 - other international versions of ICD-10 S92.
a forcible separation or detachmentDefinition of avulsion : a forcible separation or detachment: such as. a : a tearing away of a body part accidentally or surgically. b : a sudden cutting off of land by flood, currents, or change in course of a body of water especially : one separating land from one person's property and joining it to another's.
Displaced avulsion fractures are best managed by either open reduction and internal fixation or closed reduction and pinning. Open reduction (using surgical incision) and internal fixation is used when pins, screws, or similar hardware is needed to fix the bone fragment.
Chapter 19 is titled "Injury, Poisoning, and Certain Other Consequences of External Causes (S00–T88)." It encompasses two alpha characters.
Most categories in chapter 19 have seventh characters that are required for each applicable code, and most categories have the following choices (seventh characters for fractures are expanded):
ICD-10-CM fracture codes provide greater specificity than ICD-9-CM. For example, ICD-10-CM fracture codes can indicate the fracture type (e.g., greenstick, transverse, oblique, spiral, comminuted, segmental), specific anatomical site, whether the fracture is displaced or not, laterality, routine versus delayed healing, nonunions, and malunions.
The aftercare Z codes should not be used for aftercare for injuries or poisonings. The appropriate seventh characters are provided to identify this subsequent care. For aftercare of an injury, coders should assign the acute injury code with the appropriate seventh character "D" (or expanded choices for fractures) for subsequent encounter.
Codes in categories T36–T65 are combination codes that include substances related to adverse effects, poisonings, toxic effects, and underdosing, as well as the external cause. No additional external cause code is required for poisonings, toxic effects, adverse effects, and underdosing codes.
ICD-10-CM distinguishes between burns and corrosions. Burn codes apply to thermal burns (except sunburns) that come from a heat source, such as fire or hot appliance. They include electricity and radiation burns. Corrosions are burns due to chemicals. The guidelines are the same for burns and corrosions.
The ICD code S32 is used to code Abdominal trauma. Abdominal trauma is an injury to the abdomen. It may be blunt or penetrating and may involve damage to the abdominal organs. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, rigidity, and bruising of the external abdomen. Abdominal trauma presents a risk of severe blood loss and infection.
Use a child code to capture more detail. ICD Code S32.3 is a non-billable code.
S32.309K is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of unspecified fracture of unspecified ilium, subsequent encounter for fracture with nonunion. The code S32.309K is valid during the fiscal year 2021 from October 01, 2020 through September 30, 2021 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions.#N#The ICD-10-CM code S32.309K might also be used to specify conditions or terms like closed fracture of ilium, closed fracture of innominate bone, closed fracture pelvis, anterior inferior iliac spine, closed fracture pelvis, anterior superior iliac spine, closed fracture pelvis, iliac wing , fracture of iliac crest, etc. The code is exempt from present on admission (POA) reporting for inpatient admissions to general acute care hospitals.#N#S32.309K is a subsequent encounter code, includes a 7th character and should be used after the patient has completed active treatment for a condition like unspecified fracture of unspecified ilium for fracture with nonunion. According to ICD-10-CM Guidelines a "subsequent encounter" occurs when the patient is receiving routine care for the condition during the healing or recovery phase of treatment. Subsequent diagnosis codes are appropriate during the recovery phase, no matter how many times the patient has seen the provider for this condition. If the provider needs to adjust the patient's care plan due to a setback or other complication, the encounter becomes active again.#N#Unspecified diagnosis codes like S32.309K are acceptable when clinical information is unknown or not available about a particular condition. Although a more specific code is preferable, unspecified codes should be used when such codes most accurately reflect what is known about a patient's condition. Specific diagnosis codes should not be used if not supported by the patient's medical record.
A fracture is a break, usually in a bone. If the broken bone punctures the skin, it is called an open or compound fracture. Fractures commonly happen because of car accidents, falls, or sports injuries. Other causes are low bone density and osteoporosis, which cause weakening of the bones. Overuse can cause stress fractures, which are very small cracks in the bone.
S32.309K is exempt from POA reporting - The Present on Admission (POA) indicator is used for diagnosis codes included in claims involving inpatient admissions to general acute care hospitals. POA indicators must be reported to CMS on each claim to facilitate the grouping of diagnoses codes into the proper Diagnostic Related Groups (DRG). CMS publishes a listing of specific diagnosis codes that are exempt from the POA reporting requirement. Review other POA exempt codes here.
For codes less than 6 characters that require a 7th character a placeholder 'X' should be assigned for all characters less than 6. The 7th character must always be the 7th position of a code. E.g. The ICD-10-CM code T67.4 (Heat exhaustion due to salt depletion) requires an Episode of Care identifier.
Abdominal trauma is an injury to the abdomen. It may be blunt or penetrating and may involve damage to the abdominal organs. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, rigidity, and bruising of the external abdomen. Abdominal trauma presents a risk of severe blood loss and infection.
