About V36.4
V36.4 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for person boarding or alighting a three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle. It belongs to category V36 (occupant of three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle), block V30-V39 (occupant of three-wheeled motor vehicle 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 V36, choose V36.4 (Person boarding or alighting a three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: driver of three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle in nontraffic accident (V36.0), passenger in three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle in nontraffic accident (V36.1), person on outside of three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle in nontraffic accident (V36.2), unspecified occupant of three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle in nontraffic accident (V36.3), driver of three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle in traffic accident (V36.5), passenger in three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle in traffic accident (V36.6), person on outside of three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle in traffic accident (V36.7) and unspecified occupant of three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle in traffic accident (V36.9).
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.
