Unsp spacecraft accident injuring occupant, subs encntr

This code indicates that an occupant sustained an injury due to an unspecified accident involving a spacecraft, and the patient is being seen for follow-up care after the initial treatment. It signifies that the specific nature of the spacecraft accident is not documented.

Use this code for subsequent encounters when a patient presents for ongoing management, rehabilitation, or evaluation of an injury sustained in a spacecraft accident where the exact cause of the accident is unknown or not specified in the medical record. This applies after the initial acute care for the injury has been rendered.

• Always sequence this code after the code(s) for the specific injury(ies) sustained.
• Ensure the "D" seventh character is appropriate for a subsequent encounter; do not use for initial or sequela encounters.
• If the specific type of spacecraft accident is known, a more specific code from the V95.4- category should be used instead.
