Occup of hv veh inj in clsn w nonmtr vehicle nontraf, init

This code describes an injury sustained by an unspecified occupant of a large transport vehicle, such as a bus or truck, when it collides with a non-motorized vehicle (e.g., bicycle, animal-drawn vehicle) in a non-traffic setting. The "initial encounter" signifies that this is the first time the patient is receiving treatment for this specific injury.

This code is appropriate for documenting the initial treatment of injuries sustained by a passenger, driver, or other occupant of a heavy transport vehicle involved in an accident with a non-motor vehicle that occurred off a public roadway. Examples include a bus hitting a bicycle in a parking lot or a truck colliding with an animal-drawn cart on private property.

• Ensure the accident occurred in a non-traffic setting, such as a private driveway, parking lot, or farm.
• Verify the other vehicle involved was non-motorized.
• Confirm this is the initial encounter for the patient's injury; subsequent care would require a different encounter character.
