In-line roller-skater colliding w stationary object, subs

This code describes an injury sustained by an individual on in-line roller skates who collided with an unmoving object. The "D" suffix indicates that this is a subsequent encounter, meaning the patient is receiving follow-up care for an injury that occurred previously.

Use this code when a patient presents for ongoing treatment, such as wound care, physical therapy, or medication management, related to an injury sustained from an in-line roller skating collision with a stationary object. This applies after the initial acute care for the injury has been provided.

• Always ensure the "D" suffix is appropriate for follow-up care, not the initial visit.
• Pair this code with an external cause code (e.g., Y92.830 for street and highway) to provide more detail about the incident's location.
• Remember to also code the specific injury sustained (e.g., fracture, sprain) in addition to this external cause code.
