About V09

V09 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for pedestrian injured in other and unspecified transport accidents. It belongs to block V00-V09 (pedestrian injured in transport accident) and chapter 20 (external causes of morbidity). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 5 subcodes must be used instead.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: V09.0 (vehicles), V09.1 (accident), V09.2 (vehicles), V09.3 (accident) and V09.9 (accident).

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
