V98-V99 — Other and unspecified transport accidents
ICD-10-CM codes V98-V99 cover other and unspecified transport accidents, within external causes of morbidity. The block holds 25 codes across 2 categories, of which 18 are billable and 7 are header codes that cannot be submitted on a claim. 25 of them (100%) require a 7th character.
Excludes1 — never code together
These conditions cannot occur together. Billing both on the same encounter is a denial.

The 7th character in V98-V99
A code in this block is not complete without its 7th character, and a missing one is a rejected claim rather than a denied one: the clearinghouse never passes it on. 25 of the 25 codes here take one.
- A
- initial encounter
- D
- subsequent encounter
- S
- sequela
