Occup of hv veh injured in nonclsn trnsp acc nontraf, subs

This code describes an injury sustained by an unidentifiable occupant of a large transport vehicle (e.g., bus, train, heavy truck) during a non-collision event that occurred off a public roadway. This specific code is used for follow-up care after the initial injury.

This code is appropriate for subsequent encounters when a patient presents for ongoing treatment, rehabilitation, or follow-up related to an injury sustained as an unspecified occupant in a heavy transport vehicle involved in a non-collision incident that did not occur on a public highway. Examples include a passenger injured when a train derails in a yard, or a worker injured when a heavy truck overturns on private property, during a later visit.

• Ensure the encounter is for follow-up care, not the initial treatment.
• Confirm the accident involved a heavy transport vehicle and was a non-collision event.
• Verify the accident occurred in a non-traffic (off-roadway) setting.
