Billable ICD-10-CM code, FY2026.

Built from S32.811 with 7th character G (subsequent encounter for fracture with delayed healing).

Applies from S32 Fracture of lumbar spine and pelvis

Includes

• fracture of lumbosacral neural arch
• fracture of lumbosacral spinous process
• fracture of lumbosacral transverse process
