V76.5Driver of bus injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle in traffic accident

V76.5 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for driver of bus injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle in traffic accident. It belongs to category V76 (bus occupant injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle), 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 V76, choose V76.5 (Driver of bus injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle in traffic accident) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: driver of bus injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle in nontraffic accident (V76.0), passenger on bus injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle in nontraffic accident (V76.1), person on outside of bus injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle in nontraffic accident (V76.2), unspecified occupant of bus injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle in nontraffic accident (V76.3), person boarding or alighting from bus injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle (V76.4), passenger on bus injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle in traffic accident (V76.6), person on outside of bus injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle in traffic accident (V76.7) and unspecified occupant of bus injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle in traffic accident (V76.9).

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.
