ICD-10 code for shoulder girdle fracture

The ICD-10-CM code for shoulder girdle fracture is S42.9 (Fracture of shoulder girdle, part unspecified).

Within S42, choose S42.9 (shoulder girdle, part unspecified) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: clavicle (S42.0), scapula (S42.1), upper end of humerus (S42.2), shaft of humerus (S42.3) and lower end of humerus (S42.4).

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 has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
