Occup of military vehicle injured nontraf, init

This diagnosis code signifies an injury sustained by an individual riding in a military vehicle during an incident that did not occur on a public roadway. The specific role of the individual within the vehicle (e.g., driver, passenger) is not documented, nor is the precise nature of the military vehicle. This code is for the initial treatment of such an injury.

This code is appropriate for documenting injuries to military personnel or other occupants of military vehicles involved in accidents occurring on military bases, training grounds, or other off-road locations. It is used when the medical record lacks specific details about the occupant's role or the type of military vehicle involved.

• Ensure the accident explicitly occurred in a "nontraffic" setting, meaning off a public highway or road.
• Confirm the documentation indicates an "unspecified occupant" and "military vehicle" without further detail.
• Verify this is the "initial encounter" for treatment of the injury; subsequent care would require a different encounter character.
