Activity, bike riding

This code indicates that an injury or health condition occurred while the patient was engaged in the activity of riding a bicycle. It specifies the external cause of the injury as related to this particular recreational or transportation activity.

Use this code as a secondary external cause code when documenting an injury (e.g., fracture, sprain, concussion) that occurred during bike riding. It helps to provide a complete picture of the circumstances surrounding the patient's injury.

• Always use this code in conjunction with an injury code from Chapters 19 or 20 of ICD-10-CM.
• Ensure documentation clearly states the patient was riding a bicycle at the time of the incident.
• Do not use for injuries sustained as a pedestrian struck by a bicycle; use appropriate pedestrian external cause codes instead.
