Ped on foot injured pick-up truck, pk-up/van nontraf, subs

This code signifies an injury sustained by a pedestrian who was struck by a car, pick-up truck, or van in an area not designated for traffic, such as a parking lot or driveway. The "subsequent encounter" indicates that this code is used for follow-up care after the initial treatment of the injury.

Apply this code when documenting ongoing treatment, rehabilitation, or follow-up visits for a pedestrian injured in a non-traffic vehicle collision. Examples include physical therapy for a fracture, wound care for abrasions, or monitoring for concussion symptoms, all stemming from the initial incident.

• Ensure the documentation clearly states the pedestrian was struck by a car, pick-up truck, or van, not another type of vehicle.
• Verify the accident occurred in a non-traffic area (e.g., private property, parking lot) to differentiate from traffic accidents.
• Confirm this is not the initial encounter for the injury; use the appropriate initial encounter code for the first visit.
