Bus occupant (driver) injured in unsp nontraf, init

This code signifies an injury sustained by an individual who was inside a bus, either as the driver or a passenger, when the accident occurred in a non-traffic setting. This means the incident did not involve a collision with another vehicle on a public roadway. The nature of the accident itself is not specified.

Apply this code when a bus occupant is injured in an incident that is clearly not a traffic accident, such as a fall inside the bus while parked, an injury from a sudden stop in a private lot, or an accident during maintenance. It is used for the initial treatment of such an injury.

• Ensure the documentation explicitly states the accident was "non-traffic" and the patient was a bus occupant.
• Do not use this code if the accident involved another vehicle on a public road; a traffic accident code would be more appropriate.
• Remember the "A" suffix indicates an initial encounter for treatment of the injury.
