Person outside car injured in clsn w hv veh nontraf, init

This code describes an injury sustained by an individual who was outside of a car during a collision involving a heavy transport vehicle or bus. The injury occurred in a non-traffic setting, such as a parking lot or private property, and is for the initial encounter of care.

Apply this code when documenting injuries from an incident where a pedestrian or an individual standing near a car is struck by a large commercial vehicle or bus, and the event did not occur on a public roadway. This is appropriate for the initial presentation for treatment of the injury.

• Ensure the accident explicitly occurred in a non-traffic environment.
• Verify the involvement of a heavy transport vehicle or bus, not just any vehicle.
• Confirm this is for the initial encounter of care for the injury.
