About V43
V43 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for car occupant injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van. It belongs to block V40-V49 (car occupant 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 9 subcodes must be used instead.
To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: V43.0 (accident), V43.1 (accident), V43.2 (accident), V43.3 (accident), V43.4 (van), V43.5 (accident), V43.6 (accident), V43.7 (accident) and 1 more.
It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
