How coders use this code

ICD-10-CM V16.3XXA is a billable, fully specified code, so it can be reported directly on a claim to document a diagnosis of person boarding or alighting a pedal cycle injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle in nontraffic accident, initial encounter. Coders assign it when the chart documentation supports this level of detail, always matching to the most specific code available and verifying against the chapter-specific guidelines published annually by NCHS/CMS.
