Swimming-pool of boarding-house as place

This code indicates that an injury or adverse event occurred specifically within the swimming pool area of a boarding house. It points to the physical location where the external cause of the patient's condition took place, rather than the nature of the injury itself. This helps to identify environmental factors contributing to the incident.

Apply this code when documenting an injury, such as a slip, fall, drowning, or other accident, that happened in a swimming pool located on the premises of a boarding house. This code is used as a secondary diagnosis to specify the external cause's location, alongside the primary code for the injury itself.

• Always assign this code as a secondary diagnosis, following the code for the actual injury or condition.
• Ensure documentation clearly specifies both a "swimming pool" and a "boarding house" as the location of occurrence.
• Do not use if the incident occurred in a swimming pool at a private residence, hotel, or other facility type.
