Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) is a type of surgery used to stabilize and heal a broken bone. You might need this procedure to treat your broken ankle. Three bones make up the ankle joint. These are the tibia (shinbone), the fibula (the smaller bone in your leg), and the talus (a bone in your foot).
Follow-up. The difference between aftercare and follow-up is the type of care the physician renders. Aftercare implies the physician is providing related treatment for the patient after a surgery or procedure.

So you would not have a "diagnosis" code for post operative care. For post op due to joint replacement due to having had osteoarthritis in that joint. You will not code the osteoarthritis, you. Use the Z code for aftercare ...
Z Codes are "Reason for Encounter Codes," not Diagnosis Codes. If used for Orthopedic Aftercare for Non-Traumatic Orthopedic problems, then somewhere there is a M Code for the Orthopedic Disorder being treated, and for which the patient is being seen on follow up and with X-rays. This should be listed and augmented/supplemented with the most specific Z Code.#N#Respectfully submitted, Alan Pechacek, M.D.
If this is post op due to injury/trauma, then you do not use Z codes for aftercare. If it was a non injury related condition, then the Z 47.89 can stand alone if no other specific Z code applies.
mitchellde. There is not necessarily an M code for post op if the condition no longer exists to due being surgically corrected. You cannot use the pre operative condition for post operative encounters. That is why the Z codes are indicating postoperative status due to the patient no longer having the problem.
