About V71.4
V71.4 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for person boarding or alighting from bus injured in collision with pedal cycle. It belongs to category V71 (bus occupant injured in collision with pedal cycle), block V70-V79 (bus 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 V71 (bus occupant injured in collision with pedal cycle), V71.4 is specifically for person boarding or alighting from bus injured in collision with pedal cycle.
