Ped on foot injured in clsn w nonmtr vehicle, unsp, subs

This code describes an injury sustained by a pedestrian who was struck by a non-motorized vehicle, such as a bicycle or scooter. The specific circumstances of the accident (traffic vs. nontraffic) are not documented, and this code is used for follow-up care after the initial encounter.

Apply this code for any subsequent encounters related to the initial injury where the patient, a pedestrian, was involved in a collision with a non-motor vehicle. This includes follow-up appointments for wound care, physical therapy, or re-evaluation of the injury. Do not use this code for the initial presentation of the injury.

• Ensure documentation clearly indicates a non-motor vehicle was involved in the collision.
• Verify that the encounter is for follow-up care and not the initial treatment.
• Pair with an external cause code (V00-Y99) to provide more specific details about the accident.
