V91.0Burn due to watercraft on fire

V91.0 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for burn due to watercraft on fire. It belongs to category V91 (other injury due to accident to watercraft), block V90-V94 (water 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 10 subcodes must be used instead.

Within V91 (other injury due to accident to watercraft), V91.0 is specifically for burn due to watercraft on fire. Related codes cover crushed between watercraft and other watercraft or other object due to collision (V91.1), fall due to collision between watercraft and other watercraft or other object (V91.2), hit or struck by falling object due to accident to watercraft (V91.3) and other injury due to other accident to watercraft (V91.8).

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.

Don't report V91.0 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: burn from localized fire or explosion on board ship without accident to watercraft (V93.-).

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