ICD Code S92.0 is a non-billable code. To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use one of the seven child codes of S92.0 that describes the diagnosis 'fracture of calcaneus' in more detail.

The ICD code S920 is used to code Calcaneal fracture

Calcaneal fracture, also known as lover's fracture and Don Juan fracture, is a fracture of the calcaneus. It is usually caused by a fall from height when one lands on their feet. These fractures represent approximately 2% of all fractures but 60% of tarsal bone fractures. The name lover's fracture is derived from the fact that a lover may jump from great heights while trying to escape from the lover's spouse.
