V15.3XXAPerson boarding or alighting a pedal cycle injured in collision with railway train or railway vehicle, initial encounter

V15.3XXA is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for person boarding or alighting a pedal cycle injured in collision with railway train or railway vehicle, initial encounter. It belongs to category V15 (pedal cycle rider injured in collision with railway train or railway vehicle), block V10-V19 (pedal cycle rider 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.

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 E801.3 (railway accident involving collision with other object and injuring pedal cyclist).
