This code describes an injury sustained by an individual who was operating a standing electric scooter and was involved in a collision with a pedal cycle. The specific circumstances of the accident, such as whether it occurred on a public road or private property, are not specified. This code is used for the initial encounter for care related to this injury.

This code is appropriate for documenting the initial medical evaluation and treatment of a patient who presents with injuries resulting from an accident where they, as a pedestrian on a standing electric scooter, collided with a pedal cycle. This applies regardless of whether the accident happened in a traffic or non-traffic setting.

• Ensure the documentation clearly states the patient was on a standing electric scooter and collided with a pedal cycle.
• This code is for the initial encounter only; subsequent encounters will require a different seventh character.
• Always code the specific injury(ies) sustained in addition to this external cause code.
