Ped on foot inj in clsn w nonmtr vehicle in traf, sequela

This code signifies a long-term consequence or complication arising from a pedestrian being struck by a non-motorized vehicle (e.g., bicycle, skateboard, animal-drawn vehicle) in a traffic setting. It indicates that the initial injury has healed, but residual effects or new conditions directly attributable to that original incident are now being treated.

Use this code when documenting conditions such as chronic pain, nerve damage, scar tissue complications, or psychological sequelae (e.g., PTSD) that are directly linked to a past pedestrian-nonmotor vehicle collision. This applies when the patient is presenting for treatment of these lasting effects, not the acute injury itself.

• Always sequence this code after the code(s) for the specific sequela being treated (e.g., chronic pain, fracture nonunion).
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to the past pedestrian-nonmotor vehicle accident.
• The "S" in the 7th character indicates sequela; do not use for initial or subsequent encounters for the acute injury.
