Prsn brd/alit a car injured in collision w 2/3-whl mv, init

This code describes an injury sustained by an individual who was in the process of getting into or out of a car when that car was involved in a collision with a motorcycle, moped, or motorized tricycle. The injury occurred during the initial phase of treatment for the incident.

This code is appropriate when documenting injuries to a patient who was either entering or exiting a passenger vehicle at the time it was struck by a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle. This includes scenarios where the patient was partially inside or outside the car.

• Ensure the documentation clearly states the patient's activity (boarding/alighting) at the time of the collision.
• Verify that the other vehicle involved was specifically a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle.
• Confirm this is the initial encounter for the injury; subsequent encounters will require a different seventh character.
