Driver of amblnc/fire eng injured nontraf, subs

This code signifies an injury sustained by the driver of an ambulance or fire engine during an incident that did not involve a public roadway or traffic. The injury is being treated in a follow-up encounter, meaning the initial treatment has already occurred.

Apply this code when documenting subsequent care for a driver of an emergency vehicle who was injured in a non-traffic incident, such as falling out of the vehicle while parked at a scene, being struck by equipment during a non-traffic operation, or an injury sustained during vehicle maintenance in a garage. This code is appropriate for all follow-up visits related to the initial injury.

• Ensure the encounter is for subsequent care, not the initial treatment.
• Verify the patient was the driver of the ambulance or fire engine.
• Confirm the accident was nontraffic related; if it involved a public roadway, a different code is required.
