This happens to all of us, but for those with osteoporosis the effects are more severe (risk factors include being post-menopause, as oestrogen helps with bone strength, long-term use of steroids, which inhibits production of new bone, and genetics). As a result, fractures can occur without significant trauma.
Causes and Risk Factors of Osteoporosis. There are a number of diseases and conditions that may cause bone loss, as well as some medical procedures that increase the likelihood of osteoporosis. These include autoimmune disorders, digestive and gastrointestinal disorders, cancer, hematologic or blood disorders, neurological or nervous system disorders, blood and bone marrow disorders, mental illness, endocrine or hormonal disorders, and various other diseases and conditions.
ICD-10 Code for Personal history of (healed) traumatic fracture- Z87. 81- Codify by AAPC.
ICD-10 code M80. 08XA for Age-related osteoporosis with current pathological fracture, vertebra(e), initial encounter for fracture is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Osteopathies and chondropathies .
Code M81. 0 is the diagnosis code used for Age-Related Osteoporosis without Current Pathological Fracture.
733.82 - Nonunion of fracture.
Age-related osteoporosis with current pathological fracture, vertebra(e), initial encounter for fracture. M80. 08XA 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 M80.
Although all compression fractures have an underlying pathology, the term pathologic vertebral compression fracture (pVCF) is traditionally reserved for fractures that result from primary or metastatic spine tumors.
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.
A break is called a pathologic fracture when force or impact didn't cause the break to happen. Instead, an underlying disease leaves your bones weak and brittle. You may move wrong or shift your body weight in a way that puts pressure on weak bones.
Listen to pronunciation. (PA-thuh-LAH-jik FRAK-sher) A broken bone caused by disease, often by the spread of cancer to the bone.
There is no code for Chronic Rib Fracture, under Fracture rib it states the number of ribs fractured and if open or closed. So you Code the Number of Ribs and if it is an open or closed Fracture.
Age indeterminate (from what i've been taught) simply means they aren't sure how long ago the fracture occured. (could be new or old) .
Sequela refers to residual effects after the acute phase of the fracture has healed. Use the 7th character “S”, on the fracture code that precipitated the injury and the sequela code itself coding the sequela first then the fracture.
Osteoporosis without current pathological fracture. If the patient does not have current pathological fracture, you should select a code from the M81 series (even if the patient had pathological fracture in the past). A sixth digit indicates laterality. For example:
Risk factors for osteoporosis are aging, hypocalcemia, vitamin D deficiency, and osteomalacia. Osteoporosis is an asymptomatic unless complications (e.g., fracture) occur. Loss of bone mass leads to loss of bone strength, such that even a trivial trauma may be severe enough to cause a fracture.
Other osteoporosis with current pathological fracture, which includes: The M80 series of codes is appropriate for either age-related osteoporosis or other osteoporosis, with current pathological frac ture.
Causes may include senility (old age), inadequate intake of calcium and vitamin D, and protein deficiency.
Osteoporosis also may be related to endocrinal conditions, such as Cushing syndrome, hyperthyroid state, thyrotoxicosis, and diabetes mellitus. Finally, osteoporosis may be drug induced, for instance as a result of long-term steroid therapy.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM M80.05 became effective on October 1, 2021.
M80.05 should not be used for reimbursement purposes as there are multiple codes below it that contain a greater level of detail.
