Pedl cyc driver injured in clsn w oth pedl cyc nontraf, subs

This code signifies an injury sustained by an individual operating a bicycle (or similar pedal-powered vehicle) who was involved in a collision with another pedal cycle. The incident occurred in a non-traffic setting, such as a park, private property, or a designated bike path, and the patient is presenting for follow-up care after the initial treatment.

Apply this code for subsequent encounters when a patient, identified as the driver of a pedal cycle, is receiving ongoing treatment for injuries sustained from a collision with another pedal cycle. This is appropriate when the accident did not occur on a public roadway or highway. Examples include follow-up for a fractured arm from a bike path collision or ongoing physical therapy for a sprained ankle from a park incident.

• Ensure the encounter is for subsequent care, not the initial treatment.
• Verify the patient was the driver of one of the pedal cycles involved.
• Confirm the collision was with another pedal cycle and occurred in a nontraffic environment.
