X02.5XXA
ICD-10-CMJump from burning building or structure in controlled fire, initial encounter
This code signifies an injury sustained by an individual who intentionally jumped from a burning building or structure where the fire was under control. It specifically captures the mechanism of injury as a jump, rather than being trapped or falling, during an incident where fire services were actively managing the blaze.
Assign this code when documentation clearly states the patient jumped from a burning building, and the fire was reported as controlled or being actively fought by firefighters. This applies to situations where the jump was a deliberate action to escape the controlled fire, not an accidental fall.
