Prsn brd/alit an electc bike inj in clsn with pedl cyc, init

This code describes an injury sustained by an individual who is in the process of getting on or off an electric-assisted bicycle when it collides with a traditional pedal cycle. The injury is a direct result of this specific type of two-vehicle accident.

This code is appropriate for documenting the initial treatment of a patient injured while boarding or alighting an e-bike during a collision with a pedal cycle. It should be used when the patient is the individual on the e-bike, not the pedal cyclist.

• Ensure the documentation clearly specifies an electric (assisted) bicycle and a pedal cycle were involved.
• Verify the patient was in the act of boarding or alighting at the time of impact.
• This code is for the initial encounter; subsequent encounters will require a different seventh character.
