How is V38.1 listed in the External Cause Index?

These are the routes through the External Cause of Injuries Index that lead to V38.1 — how the injury happened, rather than what the injury was.

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from V30-V39

The conditions below can never be reported together with V38.1 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

  • all-terrain vehicles (V86.-)

  • vehicle designed primarily for off-road use (V86.-)
