Ped on sktbrd injured pick-up truck, pk-up/van, unsp, subs

This code signifies an injury sustained by a person riding a skateboard who was involved in a subsequent encounter with a car, pickup truck, or van. The specific nature of the accident (traffic or nontraffic) is not documented. This code is used for follow-up care related to the initial injury.

Use this code for documentation of subsequent care, such as follow-up appointments, physical therapy, or wound care, for a skateboarder injured in a collision with a motor vehicle. This applies when the initial encounter for the injury has already been coded and the accident type (traffic vs. nontraffic) remains unspecified.

• Ensure the encounter is for subsequent care, not the initial treatment.
• Verify the patient was a pedestrian on a skateboard and the other vehicle was a car, pickup truck, or van.
• Only use this code when the traffic/nontraffic accident detail is not specified in the medical record.
