About V47.2
V47.2 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for person on outside of car injured in collision with fixed or stationary object in nontraffic accident. It belongs to category V47 (car occupant injured in collision with fixed or stationary object), 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 3 subcodes must be used instead.
Within V47 (car occupant injured in collision with fixed or stationary object), V47.2 is specifically for person on outside of car injured in collision with fixed or stationary object in nontraffic accident.
