Non-billable headerICD-10-CM
S82.423 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for displaced transverse fracture of shaft of unspecified fibula. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below. This code also requires a 7th character before it is complete.

The appropriate 7th character is to be added to all codes from category S82
- A
- initial encounter for closed fracture
- B
- initial encounter for open fracture type I or II
- C

- D
- subsequent encounter for closed fracture with routine healing
- E
- subsequent encounter for open fracture type I or II with routine healing
- F
- subsequent encounter for open fracture type IIIA, IIIB, or IIIC with routine healing
- G

Risk adjustment
S82.423 does not map to an HCC and does not risk-adjust under CMS-HCC V28. That is normal — most ICD-10 codes do not. It still needs to be coded correctly; it just will not move a RAF score.
