Pedl cyc passenger injured in clsn w ped/anml nontraf, subs

This code signifies an injury sustained by an individual who was a passenger on a pedal cycle involved in an incident with either a pedestrian or an animal, occurring in a non-traffic setting. The "D" suffix indicates that this is a subsequent encounter for the injury, meaning the patient is receiving follow-up care after the initial treatment.

Apply this code when documenting follow-up care for a pedal cycle passenger injured in an off-road collision with a pedestrian or an animal. Examples include a patient returning for a cast change after breaking an arm when the bicycle they were riding on hit a dog on a park path, or a follow-up visit for a concussion sustained when the pedal cycle, with the patient as a passenger, collided with a jogger on a sidewalk.

• Ensure the patient was a passenger on the pedal cycle, not the rider.
• Verify the collision involved a pedestrian or animal and occurred in a non-traffic environment.
• The "D" suffix is crucial for subsequent encounters; use "A" for initial encounters and "S" for sequela.
