Other injury due to accident to watercraft (V91)

The ICD-10 code section V91 is designated for injuries caused by accidents involving watercraft. These codes capture various injury types like burns, crushing injuries, falls, and impacts caused by collisions or other accidents related to different types of watercraft including merchant ships, passenger ships, fishing boats, sailboats, canoes or kayaks, inflatable crafts, water-skis, and unspecified watercraft.

This section details specific codes used when a person suffers a burn from a watercraft fire (e.g., V91.00 for burns due to a merchant ship fire), or is crushed due to collision between watercraft (V91.10 and similar), falls caused by such collisions (V91.20 series), or injury from being hit by a falling object related to watercraft accidents (V91.30 series). The codes include classifications for initial encounters, subsequent care, and sequelae. For example, common terms such as "Fire in watercraft" or "Burned while ship on fire" correspond to V91.09, while crushing injuries in collisions often relate to codes like V91.19. These details ensure precise coding for injuries sustained on or around watercraft, improving clarity in medical records and billing for these specific accident types.

Instructional Notations

Includes

This note appears immediately under a three character code title to further define, or give examples of, the content of the category.

  • any injury except drowning and submersion as a result of an accident to watercraft

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.

  • civilian water transport accident involving military watercraft V94.81
  • military watercraft accident in military or war operations Y36 Y37

Type 2 Excludes

A type 2 excludes note represents "Not included here". An excludes2 note indicates that the condition excluded is not part of the condition represented by the code, but a patient may have both conditions at the same time. When an Excludes2 note appears under a code, it is acceptable to use both the code and the excluded code together, when appropriate.

  • drowning and submersion due to accident to watercraft V90

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 V91

7th Character

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

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