Code first
The underlying condition below must be sequenced before V92.2. V92.2 describes a manifestation and cannot be the principal or first-listed diagnosis.
- any associated cataclysm (X37.0-)
Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from V92
The conditions below can never be reported together with V92.2 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- civilian water transport accident involving military watercraft (V94.81-)
- drowning or submersion due to accident to watercraft (V90-V91)
- drowning or submersion of diver who voluntarily jumps from boat not involved in an accident (W16.711, W16.721)
- fall into water without watercraft (W16.-)
- military watercraft accident in military or war operations (Y36, Y37)
