Ped on stnd electr scoot injured in clsn 2/3whl, unsp, init

This code describes an injury sustained by an individual who was operating a standing electric scooter when they were 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 code is used for the initial treatment of such an injury.

Apply this code when documenting the first encounter for a patient who presents with injuries resulting from an accident where they, as a pedestrian on a standing electric scooter, collided with a motorcycle, moped, or similar two- or three-wheeled motorized vehicle. This is appropriate for emergency department visits, initial physician office visits, or hospital admissions immediately following such an incident.

• Always assign an additional code for the specific injury(ies) sustained by the patient.
• Do not use this code if the patient was a passenger or driver of the motor vehicle, or if the collision involved a four-wheeled vehicle.
• Ensure the "A" seventh character for "initial encounter" is appropriate for the patient's current visit.
