Occup of hv veh injured in collision w oth mv in traf, init

This code describes an injury sustained by an unspecified occupant within a large vehicle, such as a bus or truck, involved in a collision with another motor vehicle on a public roadway. The specific role of the injured individual (e.g., driver, passenger) within the heavy transport vehicle is not documented.

Use this code when documentation indicates an injury to an occupant of a heavy transport vehicle involved in a multi-vehicle traffic accident, but the precise occupant status (e.g., driver, passenger) is not specified. This applies to the initial treatment of the injury.

• Ensure the documentation clearly states the vehicle involved was a "heavy transport vehicle" and the collision was with "other motor vehicles."
• Only use this code when the specific occupant status within the heavy transport vehicle is unknown or unrecorded.
• Remember the "A" suffix indicates an initial encounter for the injury.
