About V18.2XXD

V18.2XXD is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for unspecified pedal cyclist injured in noncollision transport accident in nontraffic accident, subsequent encounter. It belongs to category V18 (pedal cycle rider injured in noncollision transport accident), block V10-V19 (pedal cycle rider 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 "D" means subsequent encounter: use it for encounters after active treatment, while the patient is healing or recovering.

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

Before ICD-10, this condition was coded in ICD-9-CM as E826.9 (pedal cycle accident injuring unspecified person).
