Occup of bus injured in nonclsn trnsp acc in traf, sequela

This code indicates a long-term consequence or complication arising from an injury sustained by an unidentified passenger on a bus involved in a non-impact transportation incident within a traffic setting. The original injury event was not a collision with another vehicle or object, and the specific role of the injured individual on the bus is unknown.

Apply this code when documenting a sequela (e.g., chronic pain, scar contracture, neurological deficit) directly resulting from an injury sustained by an unspecified bus occupant in a traffic-related non-collision event. This code is appropriate when the initial injury occurred in the distant past and the current encounter addresses a residual condition.

• Requires a seventh character "S" to denote sequela.
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to the past bus-related non-collision injury.
• Do not use if the occupant's role (e.g., driver, passenger) is specified or if the accident involved a collision.
