Occup of bus injured in collision w pedl cyc nontraf, init

This code signifies an injury sustained by an individual who was a passenger on a bus involved in a collision with a bicycle. The incident occurred in a non-traffic setting, such as a parking lot or private property, and represents the initial treatment for the injury.

Apply this code when documenting the first medical encounter for a bus occupant injured in an off-road collision with a pedal cycle. This would include scenarios like a bus backing out of a depot and striking a cyclist, or an incident on a school campus.

• Verify the accident occurred in a non-traffic area; otherwise, a different external cause code is needed.
• Confirm the patient was an occupant of the bus, not the cyclist.
• Ensure this is the initial encounter for treatment of the injury.
