This code signifies a pedestrian who was operating a standing electric scooter and sustained injuries from a collision with a heavy transport vehicle or bus within a traffic accident setting. The "D" seventh character indicates that this is a subsequent encounter for care after the initial treatment of the injury.

This code is appropriate for follow-up visits, such as wound care, cast changes, physical therapy, or medication adjustments, for injuries sustained in the described accident. It applies when the patient is receiving ongoing treatment for the sequelae of the initial incident, not for the initial emergency care.

• Ensure the patient was on a standing electric scooter, not a seated one or other type of pedestrian.
• Verify the collision involved a heavy transport vehicle or bus and occurred in a traffic accident.
• Confirm this is a subsequent encounter for care; use the "A" seventh character for initial encounters.
