Passenger of special industr vehicle injured nontraf, subs

This code signifies a patient who was a passenger in a specialized industrial vehicle (e.g., forklift, tractor, construction equipment) and sustained an injury during an incident that did not occur on a public roadway. This specific code is used for follow-up care after the initial injury has been treated.

Apply this code when documenting subsequent encounters for injuries sustained by a passenger in an industrial vehicle accident occurring off-road, such as on a construction site, farm, or factory floor. Examples include follow-up visits for fracture management, wound care, or physical therapy related to the initial incident.

• Ensure the encounter is for follow-up care, not the initial treatment of the injury.
• Confirm the patient was a passenger, not the driver, and the vehicle was industrial.
• Verify the accident was nontraffic; if it occurred on a public road, a different code series would apply.
