Scooter (nonmotorized) colliding w statnry obj, sequela

This code indicates a long-term health condition or complication resulting from an injury sustained when a non-motorized scooter struck a stationary object. It signifies that the initial injury has resolved, but its lasting effects are still being addressed. Examples of such sequelae include chronic pain, limited range of motion, or nerve damage from the original incident.

Use this code when documenting a patient presenting for treatment of a residual condition directly attributable to a past injury involving a non-motorized scooter colliding with a stationary object. This applies to follow-up visits where the primary focus is managing the lasting consequences, not the acute injury itself. It is appropriate for conditions like post-traumatic arthritis or scar tissue complications.

• Always sequence this code after the code describing the specific sequela (e.g., M19.90 for unspecified arthritis).
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to the past scooter accident.
• Do not use this code for the initial or acute treatment of the injury; use the acute injury code from the V00.14- series instead.
