Person outsd car inj in clsn w nonmtr vehicle nontraf, subs

This code describes an individual who was outside of a car and sustained injuries during a collision with a non-motorized vehicle (e.g., bicycle, animal-drawn vehicle) in a location other than a public roadway. This specific code is used for follow-up care after the initial injury has been addressed.

Use this code for subsequent encounters when a patient presents for ongoing treatment, monitoring, or evaluation of injuries sustained from being struck by a non-motorized vehicle while outside of a car in a non-traffic setting. Examples include follow-up for fractures, soft tissue injuries, or concussions resulting from such an incident.

• Ensure the encounter is for follow-up care, not the initial treatment.
• Verify the patient was outside of a car and the colliding object was a non-motor vehicle.
• Confirm the accident occurred in a non-traffic environment (e.g., parking lot, private driveway, field).
