2025 ICD-10-CM code Y92.024

Driveway of a mobile home as the place of occurrence of an external cause.

This code is used as a supplementary code and should always be used in conjunction with a code from another chapter specifying the nature of the injury or condition. It should not be used as a stand-alone code.

The medical necessity is determined by the injury or condition treated, not the location where it occurred.Appropriate documentation supporting the medical necessity of the treatment for the specific injury or condition is required.

The clinical responsibility for this code lies with the physician or other qualified healthcare professional who treats the patient's injury or condition.The code itself does not dictate the clinical responsibilities, only the location of the event.

IMPORTANT:Related codes may include other Y92 codes specifying different locations within or around a mobile home, and codes from Chapter 19 (Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes) to specify the nature of the injury or condition.
