Unsp rider of mtrcy injured pick-up truck/van in traf, init

This code signifies an injury sustained by an individual riding an unspecified type of motorcycle (e.g., not a dirt bike, scooter, or ATV) who was involved in a traffic collision with a car, pickup truck, or van. The injury occurred during the initial presentation for treatment of the accident.

Apply this code when documentation clearly indicates a motorcycle rider was injured in a crash with a passenger vehicle, light truck, or van, and the specific type of motorcycle is not documented. This is appropriate for the initial emergency department visit or first encounter for care related to the accident.

• Ensure the documentation specifies "initial encounter" for the injury. Subsequent care would use a different encounter character.
• Only use this code when the type of motorcycle (e.g., scooter, dirt bike) is not specified in the medical record.
• Confirm the collision involved a car, pickup truck, or van, and not another type of vehicle (e.g., bus, heavy truck).
