ICD-10-CM S92.421G: Displaced fracture of distal phalanx of right great toe, subsequent encounter for fracture with delayed healing
ICD-10-CM code S92.421G identifies a displaced fracture of the distal phalanx of the right great toe during a subsequent encounter for fracture with delayed healing. The concept is an active injury or poisoning terminology record with a parent code of S92.421. This reference outlines code structure and documentation context without providing personal medical advice. 1 3
Plain-language overview
This diagnosis code represents a specific injury to the right great toe, specifically a displaced fracture of its distal phalanx, being addressed in a subsequent encounter where the fracture is experiencing delayed healing. 1
What this code represents
The terminology record classifies this concept with the semantic type of Injury or Poisoning, establishing it as a clinical health-status concept rather than a service or supply code. 1
S92.421G is an active terminology concept that has narrower concepts within the ICD-10-CM system, and it is directly subordinate to the parent concept S92.421. 1
Coding details
The code S92.421G is published with the abbreviation indicating a displaced fracture of the distal phalanx of the right great toe with a seventh character G. 1 3
Within the S92.4 category, S92.421G is distinct from S92.421D, which represents the same right great toe fracture during a subsequent encounter for routine healing instead of delayed healing. 4
The code is also distinct from S92.424G, which represents a nondisplaced fracture of the distal phalanx of the right great toe during a subsequent encounter for delayed healing. 4 5
Documentation considerations
The official terminology record specifies the code's full display label as a displaced fracture of the distal phalanx of the right great toe, subsequent encounter for fracture with delayed healing. 1
What the sources add
While the National Cancer Institute terminology record provides the official code definition and hierarchy, the medical billing and clinical code search sources list S92.421G alongside related great toe fracture variants. 1 4 5
Coverage and utilization context
A medical billing code lookup resource includes the exact description of S92.421G in a list of related great toe fracture diagnoses, though this listing does not imply guaranteed payer coverage for any specific service. 5
