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

This code describes an injury sustained by a person riding a skateboard who was involved in a collision with another non-motorized vehicle, such as a bicycle or scooter. The specific circumstances of the accident, whether it occurred on a public road or private property, are not documented. This particular code is used for follow-up care after the initial injury.

Apply this code for subsequent encounters when a patient presents for ongoing treatment, follow-up, or management of an injury initially sustained as a pedestrian on a skateboard colliding with another non-motorized vehicle. This includes visits for wound care, physical therapy, cast changes, or re-evaluation of the injury.

• Ensure the encounter is for follow-up care, not the initial treatment of the injury.
• Verify that the patient was on a skateboard and collided with a non-motorized vehicle.
• Confirm that the documentation does not specify whether the accident was traffic or nontraffic.
