Driver of bus injured in nonclsn trnsp acc nontraf, init

This code signifies an injury sustained by the driver of a bus during a non-impact incident that occurred outside of a public roadway. This includes events like a bus driver being injured while performing maintenance in a depot or falling within the bus while parked on private property. The "initial encounter" indicates the patient is receiving active treatment for the injury.

Apply this code when a bus driver presents with an injury resulting from an incident that did not involve a collision with another vehicle or object, and the incident took place in an area not considered a public thoroughfare. Examples include a driver spraining an ankle while stepping off a bus in a private lot or being injured by a falling object inside the bus while it's parked at a private terminal.

• Ensure the patient was the driver of the bus, not a passenger or pedestrian.
• Verify the accident was noncollision and occurred in a nontraffic area.
• Confirm this is the initial encounter for treatment of the injury.
