About V47.0XXA
V47.0XXA is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for car driver injured in collision with fixed or stationary object in nontraffic accident, initial encounter. It belongs to category V47 (car occupant injured in collision with fixed or stationary object), block V40-V49 (car occupant 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 was added in FY2017, effective October 1, 2016.
Before ICD-10, this condition was coded in ICD-9-CM as E823.0 (other motor vehicle nontraffic accident involving collision with stationary object injuring driver of motor vehicle other than motorcycle).
