Person outsd 3-whl mv inj in clsn w 2/3-whl mv nontraf, subs

This code describes an individual who was not inside a three-wheeled motor vehicle but was injured when that vehicle collided with another two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle. The incident occurred in a non-traffic setting, such as a private property or parking lot, and the patient is presenting for follow-up care after the initial injury.

Apply this code for subsequent encounters related to injuries sustained by a pedestrian or bystander involved in a collision between a three-wheeled motor vehicle and another motorcycle or similar vehicle. This is appropriate when the accident did not occur on a public highway or roadway, and the patient is receiving ongoing treatment, such as cast changes, wound care, or physical therapy.

• Ensure the accident definitively occurred in a non-traffic environment.
• Verify the patient was an "outside" person, not an occupant, of the three-wheeled vehicle.
• The "D" seventh character indicates a subsequent encounter for the injury.
