M89.128

Billable

Partial physeal arrest, left distal humerus

This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).

What This Code Means

A condition where the growth plate in the left upper arm bone (near the elbow) has partially stopped growing, which can affect bone development and alignment.

Coding Tips

  • •Verify documentation specifies 'partial' arrest and confirms left side location
  • •Ensure this code is not used if the arrest is complete; use M89.126 instead
