About V00.842A

It belongs to category V00 (pedestrian conveyance accident), block V00-V09 (pedestrian injured in transport accident) 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 "A" means initial encounter: use it while the patient is receiving active treatment for the condition.

Use an additional code for: place of occurrence and activity external cause codes, if known (Y92.-, Y93.-).

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 was added in FY2021, effective October 1, 2020.
