2018/2019 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code S62.101A. Fracture of unspecified carpal bone, right wrist, initial encounter for closed fracture. S62.101A is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
Fractures of other specified skull and facial bones ICD-10-CM S02. 81XA is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0):
S09.90XAICD-10 Code for Unspecified injury of head, initial encounter- S09. 90XA- Codify by AAPC.
2022 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code S52. 501A: Unspecified fracture of the lower end of right radius, initial encounter for closed fracture.
In ICD-10-CM a fracture not indicated as displaced or nondisplaced should be coded to displaced, and a fracture not designated as open or closed should be coded to closed. While the classification defaults to displaced for fractures, it is very important that complete documentation is encouraged.
Therefore, based on the index, code S09. 90xA is assigned for documentation of closed head injury (initial encounter).
Any injury you receive to your head, that does not go through the skull, is a closed head injury.
ICD-10 Code for Unspecified fracture of right wrist and hand, initial encounter for closed fracture- S62. 91XA- Codify by AAPC.
Per ICD-10 guidelines, you would again report S52. 222A for an initial encounter.
How ICD-10 codes are structuredFirst three characters: General category,Fourth character (to the right of the decimal): The type of injury,Fifth character: Which finger was injured,Sixth character: Which hand was injured,Seventh character: The type of encounter (A, D, or S) as discussed above.
The first is the alphabetic abbreviations “NEC” and “NOS.” NEC means “Not Elsewhere Classified” while NOS means “Not Otherwise Specified.” Simply put, NEC means the provider gave you a very detailed diagnosis, but the codes do not get that specific.
The 7th character represents the type of encounter, or phase of treatment; this could be an initial encounter, a subsequent encounter, or a sequela (previously known as a late effect).
In contrast, a subsequent encounter character is used when the documentation indicates that the patient is receiving routine care during the healing or recovery phase.

Both the treating physician and the consulting physician have provided active care, and both visits are initial encounters. Neither prescribing medicine, nor referral to a physical therapist, is considered active care for fracture coding.
Fracture coding can be a challenge for both physicians and coders, but its effect on hierarchical condition code (HCC) funding in Medicare Advantage, as well as health plan Star ratings, leaves little room for speculation. Knowing how ICD-10 delineates initial and subsequent visits is key.
