Other and unspecified transport accidents (V98-V99)
ICD-10 codes V98 to V99 cover accidents involving various types of transport not specified elsewhere. These codes categorize injuries and incidents linked to less common or unspecified vehicles, helping to identify situations outside standard transport accident classifications.
The range V98-V99 is used to code injuries and fatalities related to accidents with unspecified transport means, including specialized vehicles or situations not clearly defined in other categories. This might include accidents involving unusual modes of transport or when the exact vehicle cannot be determined. Since this chapter lacks detailed subcodes, these codes serve as a catch-all for unclear or uncommon transportation accidents, facilitating proper record keeping and enabling precise injury and incident tracking in healthcare records and safety statistics.

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.
