Bitten by other hoof stock, subsequent encounter

This code indicates an injury resulting from a bite from a hoofed animal other than a horse, cow, or pig, during a follow-up visit. It signifies that the patient is receiving ongoing care for an initial bite wound from an animal such as a deer, goat, or sheep.

Apply this code when a patient presents for subsequent treatment of a bite wound sustained from a hoofed animal not specified elsewhere. This includes scenarios like wound checks, dressing changes, or antibiotic follow-ups after the initial encounter for the bite.

• Always pair with an external cause code (e.g., Y92.830 for farm as place of occurrence) to provide full context.
• Ensure the encounter is truly "subsequent" and not the initial treatment.
• Specify the exact nature of the bite injury using an appropriate injury code (e.g., S01.02XA for open wound of scalp, initial encounter).
