Occupant of special vehicle mainly used on industrial premises injured in transport accident (V83)

The ICD-10 code V83 classifies injuries to occupants of special industrial vehicles during transport accidents, differentiating between drivers, passengers, and persons on or around these vehicles in both traffic and nontraffic incidents.

This section includes specific codes for injuries involving drivers (V83.0), passengers (V83.1), and persons on the outside of special industrial vehicles (V83.2), covering initial, subsequent, and sequela encounters. It also accounts for injuries occurring while boarding or alighting (V83.4). The codes further distinguish incidents as either traffic or nontraffic accidents, with the unspecified occupant category (V83.3 and V83.9) covering other or unclear cases.

For example, the ICD-10 code for an unspecified occupant injured in a nontraffic accident (V83.9) covers events involving powered vehicles used exclusively on industrial premises, such as battery-powered baggage trucks, coal cars in mines, or logging cars. These detailed codes help accurately document industrial vehicle-related transport injuries, facilitating precise classification in medical records and billing if the injury relates to specialized vehicles used on industrial sites.

Type 1 Excludes

A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes note. It means "NOT CODED HERE!" An Excludes1 note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as the code above the Excludes1 note. An Excludes1 is used when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.

  • special construction vehicles V85
  • special industrial vehicle in stationary use or maintenance W31

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 V83

7th Character

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

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