Occup of hv veh injured in collision w hv veh nontraf, init

This code describes an injury sustained by an unspecified occupant of a large transport vehicle, such as a truck or bus, when that vehicle collides with another large transport vehicle or bus. The accident must have occurred in a non-traffic setting, meaning it did not happen on a public roadway. This specific code is for the initial encounter for treatment of the injury.

Use this code when documenting injuries to an individual who was an occupant (e.g., driver, passenger) of a heavy transport vehicle involved in a collision with another heavy transport vehicle or bus, and the incident took place off a public road (e.g., in a parking lot, private property, industrial yard). This code is appropriate for the first time the patient is seen for this specific injury.

• Ensure the documentation clearly states the accident was a "nontraffic" event.
• Verify both vehicles involved were heavy transport vehicles or buses.
• Confirm the patient's role as an "unspecified occupant" if more specific details (e.g., driver, passenger) are not documented.
