Prsn brd/alit pedl cyc injured in clsn w oth pedl cyc, subs

This code describes an individual who was in the process of getting on or off a bicycle when they were involved in a subsequent collision with another bicycle. The injury sustained is a result of this specific type of pedal cycle-to-pedal cycle accident, and the encounter being documented is not the initial treatment for the injury.

This code is appropriate for follow-up visits, such as wound care, physical therapy, or re-evaluation of injuries, stemming from a bicycle-on-bicycle collision where the patient was mounting or dismounting their bike. It should be used after the initial encounter for the injury has already been coded.

• Always use in conjunction with an injury code (e.g., fracture, sprain) to specify the nature of the injury.
• Ensure documentation clearly indicates the patient was boarding or alighting and that this is a subsequent encounter.
• Distinguish from initial encounters (use 'A' for initial) and sequela (use 'S' for sequela).
