Other mtrcy pasngr inj in clsn with ped/anml nontraf, subs

This code describes injuries sustained by a motorcycle passenger, other than the driver, who was involved in a collision with a pedestrian or an animal. The incident occurred in a non-traffic setting, meaning it did not happen on a public roadway. This specific code is used for encounters following the initial treatment of the injury.

Apply this code when documenting follow-up care for a motorcycle passenger who was injured in a non-traffic collision with a pedestrian or animal. Examples include subsequent visits for wound care, physical therapy, or medication management related to the original injury. This code is appropriate for any encounter after the initial emergency room visit or hospitalization.

• Ensure the patient was a passenger, not the driver, and the collision involved a pedestrian or animal.
• Verify the accident occurred in a non-traffic area (e.g., private property, parking lot).
• Confirm this is a subsequent encounter for the injury; use the appropriate initial encounter code for the first visit.
