About V23.2
V23.2 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for unspecified motorcycle rider injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van in nontraffic accident. It belongs to category V23 (motorcycle rider injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van), block V20-V29 (motorcycle rider 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.
Within V23, choose V23.2 (Unspecified motorcycle rider injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van in nontraffic accident) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: motorcycle driver injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van in nontraffic accident (V23.0), motorcycle passenger injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van in nontraffic accident (V23.1), person boarding or alighting a motorcycle injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van (V23.3), motorcycle driver injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van in traffic accident (V23.4), motorcycle passenger injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van in traffic accident (V23.5) and unspecified motorcycle rider injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van in traffic accident (V23.9).
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.
