About V05.031A

V05.031A is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for pedestrian on standing electric scooter injured in collision with railway train or railway vehicle in nontraffic accident, initial encounter. It belongs to category V05 (pedestrian injured in collision with railway train or railway vehicle), block V00-V09 (pedestrian injured in transport accident) and chapter 20 (external causes of morbidity). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

The 7th character "A" means initial encounter: use it while the patient is receiving active treatment for the condition.

It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.

It is exempt from present-on-admission (POA) reporting, so no POA indicator is required.

It was added in FY2021, effective October 1, 2020.
