Pasngr in hv veh inj in clsn w nonmtr vehicle in traf, subs

This code describes a patient who was a passenger in a large vehicle, such as a bus or truck, and sustained injuries in a traffic accident where that vehicle collided with a non-motorized vehicle (e.g., bicycle, animal-drawn vehicle). This specific code is used for follow-up care after the initial treatment of these injuries.

Use this code for subsequent encounters related to the initial injuries sustained by a passenger in a heavy transport vehicle involved in a collision with a non-motor vehicle. This includes follow-up appointments, physical therapy, or ongoing management of complications from the original accident.

• Ensure the patient was a passenger, not the driver, of the heavy transport vehicle.
• Verify the collision involved a non-motorized vehicle, not another motor vehicle or a pedestrian.
• Confirm this is a subsequent encounter for the injury, not the initial treatment.
