About S99.211

S99.211 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for Salter-Harris Type I physeal fracture of phalanx of right toe. It belongs to category S99 (other and unspecified injuries of ankle and foot), block S90-S99 (injuries to the ankle and foot) and chapter 19 (injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 7 subcodes must be used instead.

Within S99.21 (Salter-Harris Type I physeal fracture of phalanx of toe), S99.211 is specifically for Salter-Harris Type I physeal fracture of phalanx of right toe. Related codes cover left toe (S99.212) and unspecified toe (S99.219).

Codes in this range require a 7th character: A for initial encounter for closed fracture, B for initial encounter for open fracture, D for subsequent encounter for fracture with routine healing, G for subsequent encounter for fracture with delayed healing, K for subsequent encounter for fracture with nonunion, P for subsequent encounter for fracture with malunion and 1 more. Use placeholder "X" characters to fill any empty positions before the 7th character.

It was added in FY2017, effective October 1, 2016.
