About V77.2
V77.2 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for person on outside of bus injured in collision with fixed or stationary object in nontraffic accident. It belongs to category V77 (bus occupant injured in collision with fixed or stationary object), 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 V77 (bus occupant injured in collision with fixed or stationary object), V77.2 is specifically for person on outside of bus injured in collision with fixed or stationary object in nontraffic accident.
