Occup of dune buggy injured in nontraffic accident, sequela

This code signifies a long-term health condition or complication resulting from an injury sustained by an individual who was an occupant of a dune buggy involved in an accident that occurred off a public roadway. The specific type of occupant (e.g., driver, passenger) is not documented, and the nature of the injury's sequela is also unspecified.

Use this code when documenting a chronic condition, disability, or late effect directly attributable to a past injury from a dune buggy accident that did not occur on a public thoroughfare. This applies when the initial injury has healed, but its lasting consequences are being treated.

• Always assign an additional code(s) to specify the nature of the sequela (e.g., scar, chronic pain, neurological deficit).
• Ensure the accident was explicitly identified as a "nontraffic" event and involved a "dune buggy."
• The "S" seventh character indicates sequela, meaning the initial injury has resolved, and the current encounter addresses its residual effects.
