Hi,
I don't normally code for fractures, but I was hoping someone here could help. I have a provider submitting code S42.302S, sequela from fracture of the shaft of the left humerus. I know she needs two codes when billing for sequela, and the current problem is that the elderly patient is now experiencing a decreased range of motion in her left arm, as a result of the earlier fracture. How would you code for this?
thanks!
