V83 — Occupant of special vehicle mainly used on industrial premises injured in transport accident
V83 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for occupant of special vehicle mainly used on industrial premises injured in transport accident. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below. This code also requires a 7th character before it is complete.
This code requires a 7th character
The appropriate 7th character is to be added to each code from category V83
- A
- initial encounter
- D
- subsequent encounter
- S
- sequela
Excludes1 — never code together
These conditions cannot occur together. Billing both on the same encounter is a denial.
Includes
Conditions this code covers.
- battery-powered airport passenger vehicle
- battery-powered truck (baggage) (mail)
- coal-car in mine
- forklift (truck)
- logging car
- self-propelled industrial truck
- station baggage truck (powered)
- tram, truck, or tub (powered) in mine or quarry
Other codes that can never be billed with V83
These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at V83. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading V83 alone.
- V85Occupant of special construction vehicle injured in transport accident
Risk adjustment
V83 does not map to an HCC and does not risk-adjust under CMS-HCC V28. That is normal — most ICD-10 codes do not. It still needs to be coded correctly; it just will not move a RAF score.
