Driver injured in collision w unsp mv nontraf, init

This code describes an injury sustained by the driver of a vehicle involved in a collision with another motor vehicle, where the specific type of other motor vehicle is unknown. The accident occurred in a non-traffic setting, such as a parking lot or private property, and represents the initial phase of treatment for the injury.

Apply this code when documenting injuries to a driver involved in a two-vehicle collision that did not occur on a public roadway. This is appropriate when the medical record does not specify the type of the other motor vehicle involved in the impact. It is used for the initial encounter for care related to the injury.

• Ensure the documentation clearly states the patient was the driver and the accident was a collision with another motor vehicle.
• Verify the accident occurred in a non-traffic location (e.g., driveway, private lot).
• Only use this code when the type of the other motor vehicle is not specified in the medical record. If known, a more specific code should be used.
