Explosn of mine place dur war op but expld aft, milt, subs

This code describes injuries sustained by military personnel due to the detonation of a landmine that was deployed during a period of war but exploded after the conflict officially ended. It specifically applies to follow-up care for such an injury, indicating that the initial treatment has already been rendered.

Use this code for subsequent encounters when military personnel are receiving ongoing treatment, rehabilitation, or follow-up for injuries directly resulting from a mine explosion that occurred post-hostilities. This includes scenarios like wound care, physical therapy, or prosthetic adjustments related to the original incident.

• Ensure the patient is documented as military personnel at the time of injury.
• Verify that the explosion occurred after the cessation of hostilities, not during active conflict.
• This "D" encounter code is for subsequent care after the initial treatment of the injury.
