Ped on sktbrd injured in collision w 2/3-whl mv, unsp, subs

This code describes an injury sustained by a person on a skateboard who was involved in a collision with a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle. The specific circumstances of the accident, such as whether it occurred on a public road or private property, are not specified. This particular code is used for follow-up care after the initial treatment of the injury.

Use this code for subsequent encounters related to injuries sustained by a skateboarder in a collision with a motorcycle, moped, or similar vehicle. This includes follow-up appointments, cast changes, physical therapy, or medication management after the initial diagnosis and treatment. It is appropriate when the documentation does not clarify if the accident was traffic or nontraffic.

• Ensure the documentation clearly indicates a "subsequent encounter" for the injury.
• Verify the patient was a pedestrian on a skateboard and the other vehicle was a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle.
• Do not use this code if the traffic/nontraffic nature of the accident is specified; a more specific code would then apply.
