· S52. 135A is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. What is the CPT code for ORIF Distal Radius Fracture? There is no code which include both ORIF of distal radius and distal fractures. Please use the 2 separate codes. For Distal Radial fracture ORIF use: 25607/25608/25609.

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.
2022 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code S82. 832A: Other fracture of upper and lower end of left fibula, initial encounter for closed fracture.
Finding the right fracture code ... Use 25600 for “closed treatment of distal radial fracture (e.g., Colles or Smith type) or epiphyseal separation, with or without fracture of ulnar styloid; without manipulation.”
Distal radius fractures are one of the most common types of bone fractures. They occur at the end of the radius bone near the wrist. Depending on the angle of the break, distal radius fractures can be classified into two types: Colles or Smith. Falls are the main cause of distal radius fractures.
S62.91XAICD-10-CM Code for Unspecified fracture of right wrist and hand, initial encounter for closed fracture S62. 91XA.
Fractures are coded using the appropriate 7th character extension for subsequent care for encounters after the patient has completed active treatment of the fracture and is receiving routine care for the fracture during the healing or recovery phase.
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.
Synopsis. Distal fibula fracture, the most common type of ankle fracture, is an isolated malleolar fracture (70% or greater); the majority of these are lateral malleolus fractures. Distal fibula fractures can affect adult patient of any age as well as children.
The lateral malleolus is the distal end of the fibula, whereas the medial and posterior malleoli are part of the tibia.
ankleThe distal end of the fibula forms the lateral malleolus of the lower limb. This is a bony projection noted on the lateral surface of the ankle, which is complementary to another bony projection on the medial aspect of the ankle called the medial malleolus (formed by the tibia).
