Person inj in clsn betw car and 2/3-whl mv, nontraf, subs

This code signifies an injury sustained by an individual involved in an accident between a car and a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle (e.g., motorcycle, scooter) that occurred off a public roadway. The "subsequent encounter" designation indicates that this code is used for follow-up care after the initial treatment of the injury.

This code is appropriate for documenting ongoing care, such as wound checks, physical therapy, or medication management, for injuries resulting from a car-motorcycle collision that happened in a private parking lot, driveway, or other non-traffic area. It should be used after the acute phase of injury management.

• Always ensure the encounter is for follow-up care, not the initial treatment.
• Verify the accident occurred in a non-traffic area; otherwise, a different external cause code is needed.
• Pair this code with the specific injury code(s) to fully describe the patient's condition.
