V36.2XXA
ICD-10-CMPerson on outside of three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle in nontraffic accident, initial encounter
This code describes an individual who was an occupant, specifically on the outside, of a three-wheeled motor vehicle (e.g., a motorized tricycle, auto-rickshaw) involved in a collision with another non-motorized vehicle (e.g., bicycle, animal-drawn vehicle). The incident occurred in a non-traffic setting, such as a private driveway or parking lot, and represents the initial phase of treatment for the injury.
Apply this code when documenting injuries sustained by an individual riding on the exterior of a three-wheeled motor vehicle that collides with a non-motorized vehicle in an area not open to public traffic. This would include incidents like a passenger on the back of a motorized rickshaw hitting a bicycle in a private compound. Ensure the encounter is the first time the patient is being treated for these specific injuries.
