Unsp pedl cyclst injured in nonclsn trnsp acc in traf, subs

This code describes a follow-up encounter for a pedal cyclist who sustained injuries in a non-collision transportation accident within a traffic area, where the specific type of pedal cycle is not documented. It indicates that the patient is receiving continued care for injuries sustained in an incident such as falling off their bicycle or being struck by a non-motorized object while cycling on a public road.

Use this code for subsequent visits when a patient is receiving ongoing treatment, rehabilitation, or follow-up care for injuries sustained as an unspecified pedal cyclist in a non-collision traffic accident. This applies when the initial injury has already been coded, and the current encounter is for managing the sequelae of that event.

• Ensure the encounter is for follow-up care, not the initial treatment of the injury.
• Confirm the accident involved a pedal cyclist, occurred in a traffic area, and was a non-collision event.
• If the type of pedal cycle (e.g., bicycle, tricycle) is specified, or if it was a collision, a more specific code should be used.
