This code describes an injury sustained by an individual who was riding a skateboard and was involved in a traffic accident with another non-motorized vehicle, such as a bicycle or another skateboard. This specific code is used for follow-up care after the initial injury has been treated.

Apply this code when documenting subsequent visits for a patient who was injured as a skateboarder in a collision with a non-motorized vehicle in a traffic setting. This includes follow-up appointments for wound care, fracture management, physical therapy, or monitoring of recovery.

• Ensure the encounter is for follow-up care, not the initial treatment of the injury.
• Verify the patient was a pedestrian on a skateboard and the collision involved another non-motorized vehicle.
• Confirm the incident occurred in a traffic accident context.
