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

This code signifies a follow-up encounter for a pedestrian on roller-skates who sustained injuries from a collision with a heavy transport vehicle or bus in a traffic accident. It indicates that the initial treatment has already occurred, and the patient is now receiving ongoing care for these injuries.

This code is appropriate for subsequent visits related to injuries sustained in the described accident, such as follow-up appointments for fracture management, wound care, physical therapy, or medication adjustments. It should be used after the initial encounter code (e.g., V04.11XA) has been reported.

• Ensure documentation clearly specifies "subsequent encounter" for ongoing treatment of the original injuries.
• Verify the patient was a pedestrian on roller-skates and the other vehicle was a heavy transport vehicle or bus.
• Do not use for initial treatment or sequelae (late effects) of the injury.
