Occup of bus injured in clsn w 2/3-whl mv in traf, sequela

This code indicates that a person, whose specific role within a bus is not identified, sustained an injury from a traffic accident involving a collision between the bus and a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle. The injury is a long-term consequence or complication of the initial accident.

This code is appropriate when documenting a sequela (e.g., chronic pain, scar formation, neurological deficit) resulting from a past traffic accident where an unidentifiable occupant of a bus was involved in a collision with a motorcycle, scooter, or similar vehicle. It should be used when the original injury event occurred in the past and the patient is now being treated for its residual effects.

• Always sequence this code after the code(s) for the specific sequela being treated.
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to the past bus accident involving a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle.
• Avoid using this code if the occupant's specific role (e.g., driver, passenger) is known; instead, use a more specific code from the V70-V79 range.
