Unsp injury of unsp urinary and pelvic organ, init encntr

This code signifies an injury to a urinary or pelvic organ where the specific organ affected is not identified, and the precise nature of the injury is also unknown. It indicates that the patient is presenting for the initial treatment of this broadly defined trauma.

This code is appropriate when documentation indicates a general injury to the urinary or pelvic region, but lacks detail regarding the specific organ (e.g., bladder, kidney, uterus) or the type of injury (e.g., contusion, laceration). It is used for the initial encounter of such an injury when further diagnostic workup is pending or incomplete.

• Avoid using this code if a more specific injury and/or organ can be identified from the documentation.
• Always query the provider for more detailed information if possible to achieve higher specificity.
• This code should only be used for the initial encounter; subsequent encounters would use the appropriate seventh character (D or S).
