Ped on rolr-skt injured in collision w hv veh nontraf, subs

This code describes an injury sustained by a person on roller skates who was struck by a large commercial vehicle or bus in a non-roadway setting. The "subsequent encounter" designation indicates that this code is used for follow-up care after the initial treatment for the injury.

This code is appropriate for documenting ongoing care, such as wound checks, physical therapy, or medication management, for a patient who was injured in the described incident. It would be used after the initial emergency room visit or hospitalization for the primary injury.

• Ensure the documentation clearly specifies a "subsequent encounter" for the injury.
• Verify the accident occurred in a "nontraffic" area, such as a parking lot, driveway, or private property.
• Confirm the patient was on roller skates and the other vehicle was a "heavy transport vehicle or bus."
