Pasngr in hv veh injured in clsn w 2/3-whl mv nontraf, subs

This code describes an injury sustained by a passenger in a large transport vehicle, such as a bus or truck, when that vehicle collides with a motorcycle or moped. The collision must have occurred in a non-traffic area, like a parking lot or private property, and this specific code is for a follow-up visit for the injury.

This code is appropriate for documenting subsequent encounters for injuries (e.g., follow-up appointments, physical therapy, wound care) resulting from an accident where a patient was a passenger in a heavy transport vehicle that struck a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle off a public roadway. Examples include a bus passenger injured when the bus hits a motorcycle in a depot, or a truck passenger injured when the truck collides with a moped on a private estate.

• Ensure the patient was a passenger, not the driver, of the heavy transport vehicle.
• Verify the collision involved a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle and occurred in a non-traffic setting.
• Confirm this is a subsequent encounter for the injury; initial encounters use the 'A' seventh character.
