Dining room of single-family (private) house as place

This code indicates that an injury or adverse event occurred within the dining room of a private, standalone residence. It specifies the precise location within a single-family home where an external cause of morbidity or mortality took place.

Apply this code when documentation clearly states the dining room of a private house as the site of an incident, such as a fall, burn, or poisoning. This is used in conjunction with an external cause code (e.g., W01 for fall on same level) to provide detailed location information.

• Always pair this code with an external cause code (V00-Y99) and the primary injury code.
• Ensure the documentation explicitly states "dining room" and "single-family house" or "private residence."
• Do not use for apartments, condominiums, or other multi-unit dwellings; specific codes exist for those locations.
