Ped on sktbrd injured in collision w hv veh, unsp, sequela

This code describes a long-term consequence or complication arising from an incident where an individual, while using a skateboard, was struck by a large commercial vehicle or public transit bus. The initial accident's circumstances, specifically whether it occurred on a public road or private property, are not specified.

Apply this code when documenting a current condition or injury that is a direct result of a past collision between a skateboarder and a heavy transport vehicle or bus. This is appropriate for follow-up encounters addressing chronic issues, permanent disabilities, or delayed complications stemming from such an event.

• Always use this code as a secondary diagnosis, following the code for the specific sequela being treated.
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to the past skateboard-heavy vehicle collision.
• Do not use for initial encounters or acute injuries; this code is exclusively for sequelae.
