Occupant of streetcar injured in clsn w oth object, subs

This code signifies an injury sustained by a person riding a streetcar that collided with a stationary or moving object, excluding another vehicle. The "D" seventh character indicates that this encounter is for follow-up care, such as cast changes, medication adjustments, or therapy sessions, after the initial treatment of the injury.

Apply this code when documenting subsequent care for a patient who was an occupant of a streetcar involved in a non-vehicular collision. This includes scenarios like a streetcar hitting a building, tree, or debris, and the patient is presenting for ongoing management of their injuries.

• Ensure the encounter is for follow-up care, not the initial treatment, to justify the "D" seventh character.
• Verify the patient was an occupant of a streetcar, not another type of public transport or vehicle.
• Confirm the collision was with an "other object" and not another vehicle, which would require a different code.
