Other motorcycle (driver) injured in unsp nontraf, init

This code signifies an injury sustained by a motorcycle rider or passenger during an accident that did not occur on a public roadway or involve other vehicles in traffic. The specific type of motorcycle is not specified, and the nature of the non-traffic accident is also undefined. This code is used for the initial treatment of such an injury.

Use this code when a patient presents with an injury resulting from a motorcycle incident that took place off-road, on private property, or in a non-traffic setting (e.g., a closed course, a field, or a driveway). This applies to both the driver and any passenger involved in the initial presentation for care.

• Ensure the documentation clearly states the accident was not traffic-related and the encounter is initial.
• Look for details regarding the specific injury to code concurrently with this external cause code.
• Distinguish from V29.31XA (nontraffic, initial encounter, specified type of motorcycle) when the motorcycle type is known.
