Pedestrian on standing micro-mobility pedestrian conveyance injured in collision with pedal cycle in nontraffic accident
ICD-10 V01.03 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of pedestrian on standing micro-mobility pedestrian conveyance injured in collision with pedal cycle in nontraffic accident.
V01.03 is used to classify injuries sustained by pedestrians using standing micro-mobility devices, such as e-scooters or standing electric bikes, when they are involved in a collision with a pedal cycle (bicycle) in a nontraffic setting. This code is particularly relevant in urban environments where micro-mobility options are increasingly popular. The injuries can range from minor abrasions to severe trauma, depending on the speed of the bicycle and the circumstances of the collision. Accurate coding is essential for tracking injury patterns, understanding public health implications, and ensuring appropriate resource allocation for injury prevention programs. Documentation should include details about the type of micro-mobility device, the nature of the collision, and any resulting injuries to facilitate accurate coding and analysis.
Emergency department notes should clearly describe the mechanism of injury, type of micro-mobility device, and any immediate interventions performed.
Patients presenting with fractures, lacerations, or contusions after being struck by a bicycle while using a standing e-scooter.
Consideration of potential head injuries and the need for imaging studies.
Detailed operative reports and trauma assessments should include the mechanism of injury and any surgical interventions performed.
Patients requiring surgical intervention for severe injuries such as pelvic fractures or internal bleeding after a collision.
Assessment of multi-system injuries and coordination with rehabilitation services.
Used for patients presenting with injuries from a collision.
Documentation must support the level of service provided, including history, examination, and medical decision-making.
Emergency medicine providers should ensure thorough documentation of the mechanism of injury.
Injuries can range from minor abrasions and contusions to more severe injuries such as fractures, concussions, and soft tissue injuries, depending on the circumstances of the collision.
