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.”

Unspecified fracture of the lower end of left radius, initial encounter for closed fracture. S52. 502A 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 S52.
Transverse fractures occur when your bone is broken perpendicular to its length. The fracture pattern is a straight line that runs in the opposite direction of your bone. They can happen to any bone in your body, but usually affect longer bones after a trauma like a fall or accident.
CPT code 25607 is reported for open treatment of the fracture with internal fixation; CPT code 25608 for fracture repair in which two fragments of bone in the joint receive internal fixation; and CPT code 25609 for fracture repair in which three or more fragments of bone in the joint receive internal fixation.
The radius is one of two forearm bones and is located on the thumb side. The part of the radius connected to the wrist joint is called the distal radius. When the radius breaks near the wrist, it is called a distal radius fracture. The break usually happens due to falling on an outstretched or flexed hand.
Open reduction and internal fixation was designated by the CPT codes 25607, 25608, or 25609 (open treatment of extra- or intra-articular distal radius fracture). Closed reduction and percutaneous pinning was designated by the CPT code 25606 (percutaneous fixation distal radius fracture).
25607. Open treatment of distal radial extra-articular fracture or epiphyseal separation; with internal fixation.
ICD-10-CM Code for Unspecified fracture of right wrist and hand, initial encounter for closed fracture S62. 91XA.

CPT Code: 25605 A closed reduction is a procedure that is done to restore normal alignment of a dislocated joint or fractured bone where the affected bones are simply manipulated and no incision is necessary. The bones are manipulated by applying traction and a cast is used to hold them in place.
Transverse fracture of shaft of humerus 1 S42.32 should not be used for reimbursement purposes as there are multiple codes below it that contain a greater level of detail. 2 The 2021 edition of ICD-10-CM S42.32 became effective on October 1, 2020. 3 This is the American ICD-10-CM version of S42.32 - other international versions of ICD-10 S42.32 may differ.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM S42.32 became effective on October 1, 2021.
In the proximal radius, the only site that could be considered a "Metadiphyseal Fracture" is the Radial Neck. It would be far better to not use this term for this fracture, and just call it a Radial Neck Fracture, particularly to avoid confusion in coding. You must log in or register to reply here.
Metadiaphysis is the joining area of metaphysis and diaphysis region which occur at shaft.
AlanPechacek. The Metaphysis is the end of a long bone where the growth in the length of the bone occurs in growing children, or occurred in adults, and can be proximal or distal. The Diaphysis is the shaft portion of the long bone, and it does not contribute to growth in length of the bone in growing children or adults.
