Jump/div into natrl body of wtr strk botm cause drown, subs

This code signifies a non-fatal drowning or submersion event that occurred when an individual jumped or dove into a natural body of water (e.g., lake, ocean, river) and struck the bottom. This specific code is used for follow-up care after the initial injury.

Apply this code for subsequent encounters related to complications or ongoing treatment stemming from the initial incident of striking the bottom of a natural body of water after jumping or diving, leading to drowning or submersion. This includes follow-up appointments for respiratory issues, neurological sequelae, or other related health concerns.

• Ensure the encounter is for follow-up care, not the initial injury.
• Verify the incident involved a natural body of water and striking the bottom.
• Confirm the mechanism was jumping or diving, resulting in drowning or submersion.
