What is the appropriate anatomical site location when coding a follow up care for fracture of the finger, V54.12 - lower arm or V54.19 other bone?
In some areas in the book, the lower arm includes the hand, which would include the fingers, which would be more specific; however, I cannot find anything to clarify what the "lower arm" includes in regards to follow up fracture care codes.
Thanks!
