What it is
This is treatment of a broken distal radius, the forearm bone near the wrist, when the bone does not need to be pushed back into place and no surgery is done. Treatment is usually a splint or cast and follow-up checks.
What the price covers
The code covers the fracture care; for the treating doctor this usually includes follow-up visits over the following weeks. X-rays, the emergency room visit and casting supplies may be billed separately.
1 row held back from this comparison
It is priced below $1 or below a tenth of the national median for code 25600 ($512.21). Such a line is almost always a physician's fee billed separately, an assistant's share or a placeholder — a real charge, but not the price of the procedure itself.
