In simple words: This code indicates that the incident occurred in the driveway of a private residence, such as a townhouse or apartment.

This code identifies a driveway at a private residence (other than a single-family home) as the location where an external cause of injury or other adverse effect occurred.It is intended for use as a supplementary code, and should not be used for single-condition coding.A primary code from another chapter of the classification should be used to indicate the nature of the condition.

Example 1: A patient tripped and fell while walking up their apartment building's driveway, resulting in a fractured wrist. The primary code would be for the fracture (e.g., S52.509A), and Y92.093 would be used as a supplementary code to indicate the location of the incident., A child was struck by a car while riding their bicycle in the driveway of their multi-family residence, sustaining a head injury. The primary code would describe the head injury, and Y92.093 would specify the location., An individual slipped on ice in the driveway of their townhouse, resulting in a sprained ankle. The primary code would be for the sprain, with Y92.093 supplementing to indicate the place of occurrence.

Documentation should clearly state the location of the incident as the driveway of a non-institutional, private residence other than a single-family home.The specific type of residence may be noted (e.g., apartment, townhouse, duplex).

** This code excludes incidents occurring at abandoned or derelict houses (Y92.89), homes under construction but not yet occupied (Y92.6-), and institutional places of residence (Y92.1-).
