About V66.5XXD
V66.5XXD is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for driver of heavy transport vehicle injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle in traffic accident, subsequent encounter. It belongs to category V66 (occupant of heavy transport vehicle injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle), block V60-V69 (occupant of heavy transport vehicle 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 has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
Before ICD-10, this condition was coded in ICD-9-CM as E813.0 (motor vehicle traffic accident involving collision with other vehicle injuring driver of motor vehicle other than motorcycle).
