Contact w special construct vehicle in stationary use, subs

This code signifies an injury or adverse health effect resulting from an interaction with a special construction vehicle (e.g., bulldozer, excavator, crane) that was not in motion at the time of the incident. It indicates that the patient is receiving follow-up care for an injury sustained during the initial contact.

Use this code when documenting subsequent care for a patient who was injured by a stationary construction vehicle, such as being struck by a falling object from a parked crane, or sustaining an injury while climbing on or around an idle excavator. This applies to any encounter after the initial treatment for the injury.

• Always pair this code with an external cause code indicating the nature of the injury (e.g., fracture, contusion).
• Ensure the seventh character "D" is used for subsequent encounters, indicating ongoing care for the injury.
• Verify that the construction vehicle was indeed stationary at the time of the initial incident.
