About V86.25XA
V86.25XA is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for person on outside of 3- or 4- wheeled all-terrain vehicle (ATV) injured in traffic accident, initial encounter. 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 billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
The 7th character "A" means initial encounter: use it while the patient is receiving active treatment for the condition.
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 was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
Before ICD-10, this condition was coded in ICD-9-CM as E815.8 (other motor vehicle traffic accident involving collision on the highway injuring other specified person).
