Code Description

ICD-10 V01.01 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of pedestrian on roller-skates injured in collision with pedal cycle in nontraffic accident.

Key Diagnostic Point:

The ICD-10 code V01.01 is used to classify injuries sustained by a pedestrian on roller-skates who is involved in a collision with a pedal cycle in a nontraffic accident. This code is particularly relevant in urban settings where recreational activities occur in public spaces, such as parks or sidewalks. The injuries can range from minor abrasions to severe trauma, depending on the speed of the cyclist and the circumstances of the collision. Accurate coding of such incidents is crucial for public health data collection, injury prevention strategies, and resource allocation for emergency services. It is important to document the specifics of the incident, including the environment, the nature of the collision, and the injuries sustained, to ensure proper coding and analysis of trends in pedestrian injuries related to roller-skating and cycling.

Code Complexity Analysis

Complexity Rating: Medium

Medium Complexity

Complexity Factors

  • Requires detailed documentation of the incident circumstances.
  • Involves understanding the distinction between traffic and nontraffic accidents.
  • May require knowledge of local laws regarding pedestrian and cyclist interactions.
  • Potential for misclassification if the incident occurs in a traffic context.

Audit Risk Factors

  • Inadequate documentation of the circumstances leading to the injury.
  • Misclassification of the accident type (traffic vs. nontraffic).
  • Failure to specify the type of injuries sustained.
  • Inconsistent coding practices among different coders.

Specialty Focus

Medical Specialties

Emergency Medicine

Documentation Requirements

Emergency departments must document the mechanism of injury, location, and patient activity at the time of the accident.

Common Clinical Scenarios

Patients presenting with lacerations, fractures, or contusions after being struck by a bicycle while roller-skating.

Billing Considerations

Consideration of other potential injuries that may not be immediately apparent, such as concussions or internal injuries.

Trauma Surgery

Documentation Requirements

Detailed trauma assessments and surgical notes must include the mechanism of injury and specific injuries sustained.

Common Clinical Scenarios

Trauma cases involving significant injuries from collisions, requiring surgical intervention.

Billing Considerations

Documentation should reflect the severity of injuries and any complications arising from the accident.

Coding Guidelines

Inclusion Criteria

Use V01.01 When
  • According to ICD
  • CM coding guidelines, external cause codes should be used in conjunction with the primary diagnosis code
  • The external cause code should reflect the specific circumstances of the injury and should be reported to the highest level of specificity available

Exclusion Criteria

Diagnostic & Documentation Impact

Enhanced Specificity

ICD-10 Improvements

The transition to ICD-10 has allowed for more specific coding of external causes of injuries, improving data collection and analysis for public health initiatives. This specificity aids in understanding injury patterns and developing targeted prevention strategies.

ICD-9 vs ICD-10

The transition to ICD-10 has allowed for more specific coding of external causes of injuries, improving data collection and analysis for public health initiatives. This specificity aids in understanding injury patterns and developing targeted prevention strategies.

Reimbursement & Billing Impact
