2025 ICD-10-CM code V29.501S
Sequela of electric (assisted) bicycle passenger injured in collision with unspecified motor vehicles in traffic accident.
Medical necessity for services related to the sequelae of the accident must be established. The documentation must support the need for continued treatment and demonstrate that the current condition is a direct result of the prior accident.
It is the responsibility of the healthcare provider to accurately document the late effects of the electric bicycle accident and link them to the initial injury. This requires detailed clinical notes and possibly supporting documentation like accident reports or prior medical records.
In simple words: This code describes the long-term effects or complications that arise after a person riding an electric bicycle is injured in a traffic accident involving an unspecified motor vehicle.It indicates that the current health issue is a result of a prior accident.
Electric (assisted) bicycle passenger injured in collision with unspecified motor vehicles in traffic accident, sequela
Example 1: A patient presents with chronic knee pain and limited mobility, which is a direct result of an electric bicycle accident that occurred six months prior. The patient was a passenger on the bicycle when it collided with a car. , A patient experiences persistent headaches and dizziness following an electric bicycle accident where they collided with an unspecified motor vehicle a year ago. These symptoms are determined to be the lingering effects of a concussion sustained during the accident., A patient develops post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) following an electric bicycle accident with an unspecified motor vehicle. The ongoing emotional distress and anxiety are a direct consequence of the trauma experienced during the collision.
Documentation should clearly link the current condition to the previous electric bicycle accident.Details of the original accident, date of the accident, types of injuries sustained, and any ongoing treatment related to those injuries should be included in the documentation.Any diagnostic tests or specialist consultations related to the sequelae should also be documented.
** For accurate and complete coding, it's essential to consult the complete and up-to-date ICD-10-CM coding manual and guidelines.
