Pasngr in pk-up/van inj in clsn w 2/3-whl mv nontraf, sqla

This code describes a long-term health consequence or complication arising from an injury sustained by a passenger in a pickup truck or van. The original injury occurred during a collision with a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle (e.g., motorcycle, moped) in an off-road or non-public highway setting. The "sequela" indicates that the current encounter is for treatment of a residual condition directly related to that past accident.

Use this code when documenting follow-up care for chronic pain, permanent disability, scar revision, or other lasting effects directly attributable to an injury sustained in such an accident. This code is appropriate for encounters occurring long after the initial injury has healed, but where the patient is still experiencing related health issues.

• Always use in conjunction with a code describing the specific sequela (e.g., chronic pain, malunion, scar).
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to the past non-traffic accident involving a pickup/van and a two/three-wheeled vehicle.
• The "S" at the end indicates sequela; do not use for initial injury or subsequent care during the acute healing phase.
