About V50
V50 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for occupant of pick-up truck or van injured in collision with pedestrian or animal. It belongs to block V50-V59 (occupant of pick-up truck or van 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: V50.0 (accident), V50.1 (accident), V50.2 (accident), V50.3 (accident), V50.4 (animal), V50.5 (accident), V50.6 (accident), V50.7 (accident) and 1 more.
Don't report V50 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: pick-up truck or van collision with animal-drawn vehicle or animal being ridden (V56.-).
It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
