Occup of bus injured pick-up truck, pk-up/van in traf, init

This code describes an injury sustained by an unidentifiable occupant of a bus involved in a traffic accident with a car, pickup truck, or van. The injury occurred during the initial phase of treatment for the incident.

This code is appropriate when documentation specifies a bus occupant was injured in a collision with a car, pickup, or van, but the specific role (e.g., driver, passenger) of the injured person within the bus is not detailed. It is used for the initial encounter for treatment of the injury resulting from this specific type of motor vehicle accident.

• Ensure the documentation explicitly states the collision involved a bus and a car, pickup, or van.
• Only use this code when the specific occupant role (e.g., driver, passenger) of the bus is not documented.
• Append additional codes for the specific injuries sustained by the patient.
