Prsn brd/alit other mtrcy injured pick-up truck/van, subs

This code signifies an injury sustained by an individual who was in the process of getting on or off a motorcycle (not a moped or motorized bicycle) when it was involved in a collision with a car, pickup truck, or van. The "subsequent encounter" indicates that this code is used for follow-up care for an injury initially treated elsewhere, or for complications arising from the original incident.

Apply this code for patients presenting for follow-up appointments, wound care, physical therapy, or management of delayed complications (e.g., infection, non-union of a fracture) directly related to an injury sustained during the specified motorcycle-vehicle collision. It is appropriate when the initial acute care for the injury has already been provided and coded.

• Ensure the documentation clearly states the patient was boarding or alighting the motorcycle at the time of impact.
• Verify the other vehicle involved was specifically a car, pickup truck, or van.
• Confirm this is not the initial treatment encounter for the injury; look for terms like "follow-up," "re-evaluation," or "post-op visit" for the original injury.
