A condition where the right hip joint repeatedly dislocates (comes out of socket) on its own, often resulting from previous injury, surgery, or joint instability.
Coding Tips
- •Confirm right hip is documented; this is a significant condition often requiring orthopedic management
- •Check if this is post-surgical or related to hip replacement, as this may affect coding
