S52.209 — Unspecified fracture of shaft of unspecified ulna
Is S52.209 billable?
No — S52.209 is a non-billable header code. S52.209 groups more specific codes and cannot be submitted on a claim. A valid ICD-10-CM code must be reported at the highest level of specificity available in its branch. Select one of the 16 billable codes beneath S52.209.

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from S52
The conditions below can never be reported together with S52.209 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- traumatic amputation of forearm (S58.-)
Use additional code — inherited from Chapter 19
Report an additional code alongside S52.209 to fully describe the condition. S52.209 is sequenced first.
- code to identify any retained foreign body, if applicable (Z18.-)
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 19
The conditions below are not part of S52.209, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, S52.209 and the excluded code may both be reported.
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from S50-S59
The conditions below are not part of S52.209, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, S52.209 and the excluded code may both be reported.

How long has S52.209 existed?
S52.209 has been in ICD-10-CM since at least FY2016, the earliest fiscal year on record here.
Derived from the official order files for FY2016–FY2026. FY2017 and FY2020 publish no order file, so those years are not covered.
