This code signifies an injury sustained by an individual riding a motorcycle (driver or passenger) during a collision with a military vehicle. The injury occurred within the context of transportation, indicating the military vehicle was actively involved in transport at the time of the accident. This specific code is for the initial treatment of the injury.

Apply this code when documenting the initial encounter for a patient injured while on a motorcycle that was involved in an accident with a military vehicle. This includes scenarios such as a civilian motorcyclist colliding with an army truck or a military police vehicle. It is crucial for the first visit related to the injury.

• Ensure the documentation clearly specifies the patient was on a motorcycle and the other vehicle involved was military.
• Verify this is the initial encounter for the injury; subsequent encounters will require a different seventh character.
• Remember to code all associated injuries sustained by the patient in addition to this external cause code.
