Occup of 3-whl mv inj pick-up truck, pk-up/van nontraf, init

This code describes an injury sustained by an individual riding in an unspecified position on a three-wheeled motor vehicle. The injury resulted from a collision with a car, pickup truck, or van, occurring in a non-traffic environment such as a parking lot or private property. This specific code is for the initial treatment of the injury.

Use this code when documenting the initial encounter for a patient injured while an occupant (driver or passenger) of a three-wheeled motor vehicle involved in a collision with a car, pickup truck, or van, and the incident did not occur on a public roadway. This applies when the specific occupant position (driver or passenger) is not documented.

• Ensure the documentation clearly states the collision was with a car, pickup truck, or van, and occurred in a non-traffic area.
• Confirm this is the patient's initial visit for this specific injury. Subsequent care would require a different encounter character.
• Only use this code when the specific occupant status (driver or passenger) of the three-wheeled vehicle is not specified in the medical record.
