Prsn inj in clsn betw mtr veh and 2/3-whl mv, nontraf, init

This code signifies an injury sustained by an individual involved in a collision between a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle (e.g., motorcycle, scooter, moped) and another type of motor vehicle. The incident occurred in a non-traffic area, such as a parking lot, private driveway, or off-road setting. This specific code is for the initial treatment of the injury.

Apply this code when documenting the initial encounter for a patient injured in a crash involving a motorcycle and a car that happened on private property. It is also appropriate for injuries sustained when a scooter collides with a truck in a parking garage. Ensure the documentation clearly states the non-traffic nature of the collision.

• Confirm the collision involved a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle and another motor vehicle, not a pedestrian or fixed object.
• Verify the incident occurred in a non-traffic area; traffic accidents require different external cause codes.
• This "A" seventh character is exclusively for the initial encounter for treatment of the injury.
