BillableOsteochondritis dissecans multiple sites

What This Code Means
A condition where bone fragments separate from the joint surface in multiple locations, typically affecting young athletes and causing pain and joint instability.
Coding Tips
- •Specify the affected sites when possible; if multiple sites are involved, use M93.29 for multiple sites rather than coding each site separately
- •This condition often requires imaging confirmation; review radiology reports to ensure accurate diagnosis documentation
