Bus occupant injured in other and unspecified transport accidents (V79)
The ICD-10 code V79 and its subcodes identify injuries to bus occupants involved in various types of transport accidents, specifically those that are other or unspecified. These codes cover bus drivers, passengers, and unspecified occupants injured in both traffic and nontraffic collisions with motor vehicles or other transport incidents.
This section is used for documenting injuries sustained by bus occupants in collisions with either unspecified or other motor vehicles outside of standard traffic accidents (nontraffic), as well as in traffic accidents. It also includes injuries caused by other specified transport accidents, such as those involving military vehicles. Subcodes differentiate the injured person's role (driver, passenger, or unspecified occupant) and detail the encounter type; whether an initial treatment, subsequent visit, or late effects (sequela). For example, codes like V79.9XXA denote a bus occupant injured in an unspecified traffic accident (also referred to as a "bus accident"). Having precise ICD-10 codes for bus occupant injuries aids in accurately capturing the nature and circumstances of the injury for medical documentation and reporting.

Instructional Notations
7th Character Note
Certain ICD-10-CM categories have applicable 7th characters. The applicable 7th character is required for all codes within the category, or as the notes in the Tabular List instruct. The 7th character must always be the 7th character in the data field. If a code that requires a 7th character is not 6 characters, a placeholder X must be used to fill in the empty characters.
- The appropriate 7th character is to be added to each code from category V79
7th Character
Indicates that a seventh character is to be assigned to codes in a subcategory.
- A - initial encounter
- D - subsequent encounter
- S - sequela
