Roller skating rink as place

This code indicates that an injury or other adverse event occurred specifically within a roller skating rink environment. It signifies the physical location where the external cause of the patient's condition took place, rather than the nature of the injury itself.

Use this code when documenting the place of occurrence for injuries sustained during activities such as roller skating, rollerblading, or other events held within a designated roller skating rink. This code is always a secondary code, accompanying a primary code describing the injury or condition.

• Always assign this as a secondary code following the primary injury or external cause code.
• Ensure the medical record clearly specifies the incident occurred at a roller skating rink.
• Do not use for injuries sustained at ice skating rinks or other recreational facilities.
