About V91.1
V91.1 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for crushed between watercraft and other watercraft or other object due to collision. 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 9 subcodes must be used instead.
Within V91, choose V91.1 (Crushed between watercraft and other watercraft or other object due to collision) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: burn due to watercraft on fire (V91.0), 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.
It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
