Occupant of anml-drn vehicle injured in oth trnsp acc, init

This code signifies an injury sustained by an individual who was a passenger or driver in a vehicle pulled by an animal, such as a horse-drawn carriage or wagon. The injury occurred during a transportation-related incident that is not specifically categorized elsewhere.

Apply this code when documenting injuries to an occupant of an animal-drawn vehicle involved in an accident like a collision with a stationary object, a rollover, or a non-motor vehicle incident. This code is appropriate for the initial treatment of such an injury.

• Ensure the documentation clearly states the patient was an occupant of an animal-drawn vehicle.
• Verify the accident was a "transport accident" and not a fall from the animal itself (e.g., horseback riding).
• Confirm this is the initial encounter for the injury; subsequent encounters will require different seventh characters.
