Occup of pk-up/van injured in clsn w unsp mv in traf, init

This code signifies an injury sustained by an occupant of a pickup truck or van involved in a traffic accident with another motor vehicle, where the specific type of occupant is unknown. It indicates the initial phase of care for such an injury, without specifying the nature or severity of the injury itself.

This code is appropriate when documentation confirms an occupant of a pickup truck or van was injured in a multi-vehicle collision on a public roadway, but the patient's specific role (e.g., driver, passenger) is not documented. It is used for the initial encounter for treatment of the injury.

• Only use when the specific occupant role (driver, passenger) is truly unspecified in the medical record.
• Requires documentation of a collision between a pickup truck/van and another motor vehicle.
• Always pair with an injury code (e.g., fracture, contusion) to describe the specific injury sustained.
