Person outsd bus inj in clsn w nonmtr vehicle nontraf, sqla

This code describes the long-term effects or complications arising from an injury sustained by an individual who was outside of a bus when it collided with another non-motorized vehicle. The incident occurred in a location not typically used for public traffic, such as a private lot or driveway.

Apply this code when documenting a sequela (e.g., chronic pain, scar contracture, neurological deficit) directly resulting from an injury sustained in the described accident. This code is appropriate for follow-up encounters after the initial injury has been treated, where the residual effects are being managed.

• Always use this code as a secondary diagnosis, following the code for the specific sequela being treated.
• Ensure the medical record clearly links the current condition to the original injury event.
• Verify the accident involved a non-motorized vehicle (e.g., bicycle, animal-drawn vehicle) and occurred in a non-traffic area.
