Animl-ridr injured by fall fr animl in nonclsn acc, sequela

This code signifies a long-term consequence or complication arising from an injury sustained when an individual fell from or was thrown by an animal other than a horse, in an accident that did not involve a collision with another object or vehicle. It indicates that the initial injury has led to a persistent health problem requiring ongoing care or evaluation.

Use this code when documenting a sequela (e.g., chronic pain, limited range of motion, neurological deficits) directly attributable to a past non-collision incident involving a rider and an animal other than a horse. This applies to follow-up encounters where the residual effects of the original injury are being addressed.

• Always use in conjunction with a code describing the specific sequela (e.g., chronic fracture nonunion, scar contracture).
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to the past animal-related fall.
• This code is for "other animal," so confirm the animal involved was not a horse.
