About V29.99

V29.99 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for rider (driver) (passenger) of other motorcycle injured in unspecified traffic accident. It belongs to category V29 (motorcycle rider injured in other and unspecified transport accidents), 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 3 subcodes must be used instead.

Within V29.9, choose V29.99 (Rider (driver) (passenger) of other motorcycle injured in unspecified traffic accident) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: electric (assisted) bicycle rider (driver) (passenger) injured in unspecified traffic accident (V29.91).

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 was added in FY2023, effective October 1, 2022.
