Other mtrcy pasngr inj in clsn with unsp mv in traf, init

This code signifies an injury sustained by a motorcycle passenger during a traffic accident involving their motorcycle and another, unspecified motor vehicle. The "initial encounter" designation indicates that this code is used for the first time the patient is receiving active treatment for this specific injury.

Apply this code when documenting the initial treatment for a motorcycle passenger injured in a collision where the other vehicle involved is not specified (e.g., "car," "truck," "bus"). This is appropriate for emergency department visits, initial hospital admissions, or the first outpatient visit for the injury.

• Ensure the patient was a passenger, not the driver, of the motorcycle.
• Verify that the collision involved another motor vehicle, even if the specific type is unknown.
• Confirm this is the initial encounter for active treatment of the injury. Subsequent care would use a different encounter character.
