Ped w convey inj pick-up truck, pk-up/van in traf, sequela

This code describes the long-term effects or complications arising from a pedestrian being struck by a car, pick-up truck, or van in a traffic accident, where the pedestrian was also operating or in contact with another conveyance (e.g., skateboard, scooter, roller skates). It indicates that the initial injury event has resolved, but the patient is now experiencing residual conditions directly attributable to that past collision.

Use this code when documenting a patient presenting with a current condition that is a direct consequence of a previous traffic accident where they, as a pedestrian, were injured by a car, pick-up truck, or van while also using another conveyance. This applies to follow-up encounters for chronic pain, limited range of motion, neurological deficits, or other lasting impairments stemming from the original incident.

• Always sequence this sequela code after the code(s) for the specific residual condition(s) being treated.
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to the past pedestrian-vehicle collision involving another conveyance.
• Do not use for initial encounters or active treatment of acute injuries from the original accident.
