This code describes an injury sustained by an unidentified occupant of a three-wheeled motor vehicle involved in a traffic accident with a large commercial vehicle or bus. The specific type of injury or the role of the occupant (e.g., driver, passenger) is not documented. This code is used for the initial treatment of the injury.

This code is appropriate when a patient presents with injuries resulting from a collision between a three-wheeled motor vehicle and a heavy transport vehicle or bus, and the medical record does not specify the occupant's role or the exact nature of the three-wheeled vehicle. It is used for the first encounter for this specific injury.

• Ensure the documentation clearly indicates a three-wheeled motor vehicle and a heavy transport vehicle/bus were involved.
• Only use this code when the occupant's specific role (e.g., driver, passenger) is not documented.
• The "A" suffix indicates an initial encounter for treatment of the injury.
