About V26.51XS

V26.51XS is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for electric (assisted) bicycle passenger injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle in traffic accident, sequela. It belongs to category V26 (motorcycle rider injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle), block V20-V29 (motorcycle 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 "S" means sequela: use it for complications or conditions that arise as a direct result of the original 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 was added in FY2023, effective October 1, 2022.
