Accident to, on or involving cable-car, not on rails, init

This code signifies an injury or adverse event resulting from an accident involving a cable-car that operates without rails, such as an aerial tramway or gondola lift. It specifically captures the initial presentation of the patient for this type of incident.

Use this code when a patient presents for treatment of injuries sustained in an accident involving a non-rail cable-car. This includes scenarios like falls from the cable-car, collisions with other objects, or mechanical failures leading to injury during the initial encounter for care.

• Ensure the documentation clearly specifies a cable-car not on rails to differentiate from other transport accidents.
• Always append additional codes for the specific injuries sustained by the patient.
• Verify that this is indeed the initial encounter for treatment of the injuries from this accident.
