Closed Treatment of Tailbone Fracture

North Carolina rates for HCPCS 27200

This is the nonsurgical management of a broken tailbone (coccyx), where the fracture is treated without an incision or open surgery. Care typically focuses on pain control, activity modification, and monitoring while the bone heals on its own, since the tailbone usually cannot be meaningfully realigned by manipulation. It is a distinct service focused specifically on managing this fracture.
