ICD Code S62.301 is a non-billable code. To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use specify a 7th character that describes the diagnosis 'unspecified fracture of second metacarpal bone, left hand' in more detail. The 7th characters that can be added, and the resulting billable codes, are as follows: What is 7th Character Extension?
Short description: Nondisp fx of neck of fifth metacarpal bone, left hand The 2021 edition of ICD-10-CM S62.367 became effective on October 1, 2020. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of S62.367 - other international versions of ICD-10 S62.367 may differ.

2011 ICD-9-CM Diagnosis Code 815.00 : Closed fracture of metacarpal bone(s) site unspecified.
metacarpal, any of several tubular bones between the wrist (carpal) bones and each of the forelimb digits in land vertebrates, corresponding to the metatarsal bones of the foot.
A metacarpal fracture is defined as a fracture of the miniature long bone of the hand. These injuries can be displaced, nondisplaced, open, or closed, and can be classified according to the location: head, neck, shaft, or base. Thumb metacarpal fractures are classified only as being located in the head, shaft, or base.

ICD-10 code M79. 642 for Pain in left hand is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Soft tissue disorders .
Second metacarpal bone The metacarpal bone 2 is the one with the largest base and the longest shaft. Its base shows several areas for the articulations with the carpal bones; A groove in the coronal plane via which it articulates with the trapezoid bone.
second (index) metacarpal: articulates with the trapezoid as well as the trapezium via a small tubercle. third (middle) metacarpal: articulates with the capitate.
Besides the metacarpophalangeal joints, the metacarpal bones articulate by carpometacarpal joints as follows:the first with the trapezium;the second with the trapezium, trapezoid, capitate and third metacarpal;the third with the capitate and second and fourth metacarpals;More items...
A nondisplaced fracture is one in which the bone cracks or breaks but retains its proper alignment. Nondisplaced fractures often require only bracing, booting or casting treatment.
A radial gutter splint should be used for second or third metacarpal fractures, with a hole for the thumb while leaving the ring and little finger free. The technique involves application of the splint from the proximal forearm to just beyond the DIP joint.
Most of the healing happens between three to six weeks but can take several months for your full symptoms to settle completely. In addition, once the fracture has healed you may have a permanent 'bump' where the bone was fractured.
The region of the index finger metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint is a common source of hand pain with variable etiology. Known causes of pain at this site include stenosing tenosynovitis, ganglion, osteoarthritis, fracture, dislocation, ligament injury, infection, and inflammatory arthropathy.
First Metacarpal Joint/bone The first metacarpal bone is associated with the thumb. The joints between the carpals and the metacarpals are known as carpometacarpal joints. The joints between the metacarpals and the proximal phalanges are known a metacarpophalangeal joints.
In humans the metatarsal bones, those of the foot proper, are larger than the corresponding bones of the hands, the metacarpal bones. The tarsals and metatarsals form the arches of the foot, which give it strength and enable it to act as a lever.
The third metacarpal bone (MCIII) and third metatarsal (MTIII) bones are important and vulnerable elements of the forelimbs and hindlimbs, respectively.
S92.325 is a non-billable ICD-10 code for Nondisplaced fracture of second metatarsal bone, left foot. It should not be used for HIPAA-covered transactions as a more specific code is available to choose from below.
NEC Not elsewhere classifiable#N#This abbreviation in the Tabular List represents “other specified”. When a specific code is not available for a condition, the Tabular List includes an NEC entry under a code to identify the code as the “other specified” code.
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.
Boxer's Fracture is a colloquial term for a fracture of one of the metacarpal bones of the hand. Classically, the fracture occurs transversely across the neck of the bone, after the patient strikes an object with a closed fist. Alternate terms include Scrapper's fracture or Bar Room fracture.
