About V86.53XD

V86.53XD is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for driver of dune buggy injured in nontraffic accident, subsequent 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 "D" means subsequent encounter: use it for encounters after active treatment, while the patient is healing or recovering.

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 has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.

Before ICD-10, this condition was coded in ICD-9-CM as E821.0 (nontraffic accident involving other off-road motor vehicle injuring driver of motor vehicle other than motorcycle).
