Inclusion terms
Alternative wording in documentation that is classified to V91.3.
- Hit or struck by falling object (part of damaged watercraft or other object) after falling or jumping from damaged watercraft
Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from V91
The conditions below can never be reported together with V91.3 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from V91
The conditions below are not part of V91.3, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, V91.3 and the excluded code may both be reported.
