Occupant of pick-up truck or van injured in collision with two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle (V52) ICD-10-CM

About the V52 Code Range

The ICD-10 code V52 and its subcodes identify injuries sustained by occupants of pick-up trucks or vans when involved in collisions with two- or three-wheeled motor vehicles. These codes specify the role of the injured person, the nature of the accident, and the treatment phase.

Codes in this range differentiate among drivers, passengers, persons on the vehicle exterior, and those boarding or alighting a pick-up truck or van during such collisions. Each category is further detailed with initial encounter, subsequent encounter, and sequela (complications or conditions resulting from a previous injury) modifiers. Additionally, distinctions are made between traffic and nontraffic accidents to specify the incident context. Using the ICD-10 code for occupant of pick-up truck or van injured in collision with two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle helps healthcare providers and coders document and track these specific external causes of injury accurately, supporting appropriate treatment and reporting. This precise coding is critical for identifying the injury circumstances related to collisions involving smaller motor vehicles like motorcycles or mopeds against larger light trucks or vans.
