Nonsurgical Treatment of a Broken Forearm Bone (Ulna)

Iowa rates for HCPCS 25530

This treats a fracture of the ulna, one of the two bones in the forearm, without any incision or surgery. It's used when the broken bone is already in a good position, so the doctor immobilizes the arm with a cast or splint rather than manually realigning the bone.
