Occupant of heavy transport vehicle injured in other and unspecified transport accidents (V69)

The ICD-10 code V69 category is used to document injuries sustained by occupants of heavy transport vehicles in various types of transport accidents that are either unspecified or classified as other types. This coding section covers both drivers and passengers involved in collisions with motor vehicles, whether these incidents occur during traffic or nontraffic accidents.

This specific range of codes helps medical coders accurately classify injuries to occupants of heavy vehicles, such as trucks or buses, in accidents with other motor vehicles that do not fall under common traffic collision categories. For example, codes under V69.00 and V69.09 denote injuries to drivers of heavy transport vehicles in nontraffic collisions with unspecified or other motor vehicles respectively, while V69.10 and V69.19 apply to passengers injured in similar circumstances. The coding includes detailed extensions for initial encounters, subsequent care, and sequelae. Additionally, V69.3XX codes cover occupants injured in unspecified nontraffic accidents; sometimes described as injuries to motor vehicle occupants without a traffic accident or involving stationary heavy goods vehicles. Through these codes, healthcare providers can specify accident context and occupant role, ensuring precise medical coding for heavy vehicle-related transport injuries.

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 V69

7th Character

Indicates that a seventh character is to be assigned to codes in a subcategory.

  • A - initial encounter
  • D - subsequent encounter
  • S - sequela
