Unsp rider of mtrcy inj in nonclsn trnsp acc in traf, subs

This code describes an injury sustained by an unspecified individual riding a motorcycle (not the driver) during a non-collisional traffic accident. This particular code is for a subsequent encounter, meaning the patient is receiving follow-up care for an injury that occurred previously.

Use this code for follow-up visits, rehabilitation, or ongoing treatment for injuries sustained by a motorcycle passenger in a traffic accident where the motorcycle did not collide with another vehicle or object. This applies when the specific role of the rider (e.g., passenger) is not documented, and the accident occurred on a public roadway.

• Ensure documentation clearly indicates a "subsequent encounter" for the injury.
• Verify the accident was a "noncollision transport accident" and occurred in a "traffic accident" context.
• Only use this code when the specific type of rider (e.g., passenger) is not specified in the medical record.
