About V94

V94 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other and unspecified water transport accidents. It belongs to 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 7 subcodes must be used instead.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: V94.0 (watercraft), V94.1 (watercraft), V94.2 (watercraft), V94.3 (watercraft), V94.4 (water-skier), V94.8 (accident) and V94.9 (accident).

Don't report V94 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: military watercraft accidents in military or war operations (Y36, Y37).

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