About V97.810D

V97.810D is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for civilian aircraft involved in air transport accident with military aircraft, subsequent encounter. It belongs to category V97 (other specified air transport accidents), block V95-V97 (air and space 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 E844.9 (other specified air transport accidents injuring other person).
