Ped on rolr-skt inj pick-up truck, pk-up/van in traf, subs

This code signifies an injury sustained by an individual on roller-skates who was struck by a car, pickup truck, or van in a traffic accident. The "XD" extension indicates that this is a subsequent encounter for the injury, meaning the patient is receiving follow-up care after the initial treatment.

This code is appropriate for documenting ongoing care, such as follow-up appointments, physical therapy, or wound care, for a pedestrian roller-skater injured in a motor vehicle collision. It should be used after the initial diagnosis and treatment of the injuries resulting from the accident.

• Always ensure the "XD" extension is used for subsequent encounters, not initial treatment.
• Verify the patient was on roller-skates and involved in a collision with a car, pickup truck, or van.
• Remember to also code the specific injuries sustained by the patient.
