About V47.9XXD
V47.9XXD is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for unspecified car occupant injured in collision with fixed or stationary object in traffic accident, subsequent encounter. 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 billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
The 7th character "D" means subsequent encounter: use it for encounters after active treatment, while the patient is healing or recovering.
It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.
It is exempt from present-on-admission (POA) reporting, so no POA indicator is required.
It was added in FY2017, effective October 1, 2016.
Before ICD-10, this condition was coded in ICD-9-CM as E812.9 (other motor vehicle traffic accident involving collision with motor vehicle injuring unspecified person).
