About V86.1

V86.1 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for passenger of special all-terrain or other off-road motor vehicle injured in traffic accident. It belongs to category V86 (occupant of special all-terrain or other off-road motor vehicle, injured in transport accident), block V80-V89 (other land transport accidents) and chapter 20 (external causes of morbidity). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 7 subcodes must be used instead.

Within V86, choose V86.1 (Passenger of special all-terrain or other off-road motor vehicle injured in traffic accident) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: driver of special all-terrain or other off-road motor vehicle injured in traffic accident (V86.0), person on outside of special all-terrain or other off-road motor vehicle injured in traffic accident (V86.2), unspecified occupant of special all-terrain or other off-road motor vehicle injured in traffic accident (V86.3), person injured while boarding or alighting from special all-terrain or other off-road motor vehicle (V86.4), driver of special all-terrain or other off-road motor vehicle injured in nontraffic accident (V86.5), passenger of special all-terrain or other off-road motor vehicle injured in nontraffic accident (V86.6), person on outside of special all-terrain or other off-road motor vehicle injured in nontraffic accident (V86.7) and unspecified occupant of special all-terrain or other off-road motor vehicle injured in nontraffic accident (V86.9).

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.
