About V61.3
V61.3 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for unspecified occupant of heavy transport vehicle injured in collision with pedal cycle in nontraffic accident. It belongs to category V61 (occupant of heavy transport vehicle injured in collision with pedal cycle), block V60-V69 (occupant of heavy transport 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 V61, choose V61.3 (Unspecified occupant of heavy transport vehicle injured in collision with pedal cycle in nontraffic accident) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: driver of heavy transport vehicle injured in collision with pedal cycle in nontraffic accident (V61.0), passenger in heavy transport vehicle injured in collision with pedal cycle in nontraffic accident (V61.1), person on outside of heavy transport vehicle injured in collision with pedal cycle in nontraffic accident (V61.2), person boarding or alighting a heavy transport vehicle injured in collision with pedal cycle while boarding or alighting (V61.4), driver of heavy transport vehicle injured in collision with pedal cycle in traffic accident (V61.5), passenger in heavy transport vehicle injured in collision with pedal cycle in traffic accident (V61.6), person on outside of heavy transport vehicle injured in collision with pedal cycle in traffic accident (V61.7) and unspecified occupant of heavy transport vehicle injured in collision with pedal cycle in traffic accident (V61.9).
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.
