Ped on foot injured in collision w 2/3-whl mv, unsp, init

This code signifies an injury sustained by a person walking or running who was struck by a two- or three-wheeled motorized vehicle, such as a motorcycle, scooter, or moped. The specific circumstances of the accident, including whether it occurred on a public roadway or private property, are not documented or are unknown.

This code is appropriate for initial encounters when a pedestrian presents with injuries resulting from an impact with a motorcycle, moped, or similar vehicle. It should be used when the documentation does not specify if the accident was traffic-related or nontraffic-related.

• Ensure the documentation clearly identifies the injured party as a pedestrian and the colliding vehicle as a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle.
• Only use this code for the initial encounter for treatment of the injury.
• Avoid using this code if the traffic/nontraffic status is known; instead, select a more specific code.
