Prsn brd/alit an electc bike inj in clsn oth non-mv, sequela

This code describes the long-term effects or complications arising from an injury sustained by an individual who was in the process of getting on or off an electric-assisted bicycle when it collided with another non-motorized vehicle. This includes conditions such as chronic pain, permanent disability, or organ damage that are directly attributable to the original incident.

Apply this code when documenting a patient presenting with a sequela from an injury sustained during a collision between an electric bicycle (while boarding/alighting) and another non-motorized vehicle, such as a traditional bicycle, skateboard, or pedestrian. This code is appropriate for follow-up encounters where the acute injury has resolved, but its lasting effects are being treated.

• Always sequence the sequela code first, followed by the code for the specific condition or nature of the sequela.
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to the past collision involving an electric bicycle and another non-motorized vehicle.
• Verify the encounter is for the sequela and not the initial injury, which would require an acute injury code.
