Pedl cyc pasngr injured in clsn w ped/anml nontraf, sequela

This code signifies a long-term complication or condition arising from an injury sustained by a passenger on a pedal cycle. The original injury occurred during a collision with a pedestrian or an animal, specifically in a non-traffic environment. This indicates the patient is presenting for care related to the lasting effects of that past incident.

Apply this code when documenting a sequela of an injury where a pedal cycle passenger was involved in a collision with a pedestrian or animal outside of a public roadway. This would be used for follow-up visits addressing chronic pain, functional limitations, or other residual issues directly attributable to the original non-traffic accident.

• Always use this code as a secondary diagnosis, following the code for the specific sequela being treated (e.g., chronic pain, scar contracture).
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to the past pedal cycle accident and specifies the non-traffic nature of the collision.
• Verify that the patient was a passenger on the pedal cycle, not the rider, and that the collision was with a pedestrian or animal.
