Driver of hv veh inj in clsn w nonmtr vehicle nontraf, subs

This code signifies a driver of a large commercial vehicle, such as a truck or bus, sustaining injuries from an impact with a non-motorized vehicle (e.g., bicycle, animal-drawn vehicle) that occurred off a public roadway. This encounter represents follow-up care for injuries sustained in the initial incident.

This code is appropriate for subsequent visits related to injuries sustained by a heavy transport vehicle driver in an off-road collision with a non-motorized vehicle. Examples include follow-up appointments for fracture management, physical therapy for soft tissue injuries, or wound care after the initial treatment.

• Ensure the accident occurred in a "nontraffic" area, meaning not on a public highway or road.
• Verify the patient was the "driver" of the heavy transport vehicle, not a passenger or pedestrian.
• Confirm this is a "subsequent encounter" for care related to the initial injury.
