Occupant of heavy transport vehicle injured in collision with railway train or railway vehicle (V65)
The ICD-10 code V65 and its subcodes classify injuries to occupants of heavy transport vehicles involved in collisions with railway trains or railway vehicles. These codes distinguish different roles such as drivers, passengers, and persons on the outside of the vehicle, and specify whether the incident was a traffic or nontraffic accident.
This section covers the ICD-10 code for injuries resulting from collisions between heavy transport vehicles and railway trains or vehicles. Codes like V65.0 identify drivers injured in nontraffic accidents, while V65.5 applies to those in traffic accidents. Similarly, passengers and persons outside the vehicle have distinct codes (V65.1, V65.6, V65.2, and V65.7). Each category further subdivides with seventh-character extensions indicating the stage of care: initial encounter (A), subsequent care (D), or sequela (S). Additionally, codes such as V65.4 cover persons boarding or alighting heavy transport vehicles involved in such collisions. By using these specific codes, medical coders can accurately represent the injury circumstances related to these complex transport-rail incidents.

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 V65
7th Character
Indicates that a seventh character is to be assigned to codes in a subcategory.
- A - initial encounter
- D - subsequent encounter
- S - sequela
