Passenger of 3- or 4- wheeled ATV injured nontraf, subs

This code signifies an injury sustained by a passenger on a 3- or 4-wheeled all-terrain vehicle (ATV) during an accident that did not occur on a public roadway. The "subsequent encounter" designation indicates that this code is used for follow-up care after the initial treatment of the injury.

Apply this code when a patient presents for ongoing management, such as wound care, physical therapy, or follow-up imaging, related to an injury sustained as an ATV passenger in an off-road incident. This includes scenarios where the patient is returning for a check-up after initial discharge from an emergency department or hospital stay.

• Ensure the documentation clearly states the patient was a passenger, not the driver, of the ATV.
• Verify the accident occurred in a non-traffic setting (e.g., private property, off-road trail).
• Confirm this is not the initial encounter for the injury; use the appropriate initial encounter code for the first visit.
