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

This code describes an individual who was outside of a car and sustained injuries during a collision with a motorcycle, scooter, or similar two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle. The incident occurred in a non-traffic setting, such as a parking lot or private property, and this specific code is for a subsequent encounter for the injury.

This code is appropriate for follow-up visits, such as wound care, physical therapy, or re-evaluation of injuries, stemming from the described non-traffic accident. It should be used when the patient is receiving active treatment for the sequelae of the initial injury, not for routine aftercare or healing.

• Ensure the documentation clearly states the patient was outside the car, not an occupant.
• Verify the accident involved a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle and occurred in a non-traffic area.
• Confirm this is a subsequent encounter for the injury, indicated by the "D" seventh character.
