About V09.2

V09.2 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for pedestrian injured in traffic accident involving other and unspecified motor vehicles. It belongs to category V09 (pedestrian injured in other and unspecified transport accidents), 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 3 subcodes must be used instead.

Within V09, choose V09.2 (traffic accident involving other and unspecified motor vehicles) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: nontraffic accident involving other and unspecified motor vehicles (V09.0), unspecified nontraffic accident (V09.1), unspecified traffic accident (V09.3) and unspecified transport accident (V09.9).

Codes in this range require a 7th character: A for initial encounter, D for subsequent encounter and S for sequela. Use placeholder "X" characters to fill any empty positions before the 7th character.

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