Crush betw pasngr ship and oth wtrcrft/obj due to clsn, subs

This code describes an injury sustained by a patient who was crushed between a passenger ship and another watercraft or object during a collision, specifically for a subsequent encounter. This indicates the patient is receiving follow-up care for injuries initially sustained in such an incident.

Use this code for any subsequent visits related to injuries (e.g., fractures, internal organ damage, severe contusions) that occurred when a patient was physically compressed between a passenger ship and another vessel or stationary object during a collision. This applies to follow-up appointments, rehabilitation, or management of complications arising from the initial crushing injury.

• Ensure the encounter is for follow-up care, not the initial injury. The "D" in the seventh character signifies a subsequent encounter.
• Always code the specific injury(ies) sustained due to the crushing force in addition to this external cause code.
• Verify the mechanism of injury specifically involves being crushed between a passenger ship and another object during a collision.
