Pedl cyclst (driver) injured in oth transport acc, subs

This code describes a pedal cyclist (either the driver or a passenger) who sustained injuries in a transport accident that is not classified as a collision with a pedestrian, another pedal cycle, a motor vehicle, or a non-motor vehicle. It specifically indicates that the encounter is for follow-up care after the initial treatment of the injury.

Use this code for subsequent encounters when a patient, identified as a pedal cyclist, is being treated for injuries resulting from an unusual or less common type of transport accident. Examples include a pedal cyclist injured by falling from their bike due to a road hazard (e.g., pothole, debris) without colliding with another entity, or being injured by a falling object during transport.

• Always ensure the encounter is for follow-up care, not the initial treatment.
• Pair this code with an external cause code (V00-Y99) to specify the nature of the accident.
• Confirm the patient was a pedal cyclist (driver or passenger) and the accident type is not covered by more specific V10-V18 codes.
