Terrorism involving oth means, terrorist injured, subs

This code indicates that a patient is being treated for injuries sustained during a terrorist act that involved methods other than biological, chemical, nuclear, or conventional weapons. This specific encounter is for follow-up care, rehabilitation, or management of long-term complications related to those initial injuries.

Use this code for subsequent visits when a patient is receiving ongoing medical attention for injuries directly resulting from a terrorist event that utilized non-specified means. This includes scenarios like physical therapy for blast injuries, psychological counseling for trauma, or medication management for chronic pain stemming from the incident.

• Always pair with an injury code (e.g., fracture, burn, PTSD) to specify the nature of the injury being treated.
• The "D" seventh character signifies a subsequent encounter, meaning the patient is receiving routine care during the healing or recovery phase.
• Ensure documentation clearly links the patient's current condition to a past terrorist event and specifies the "other means" if known and relevant.
