V63.3: Occupant of heavy transport vehicle injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van : unspecified occupant of heavy transport vehicle injured in nontraffic accident
V63.3 is a diagnostic code referring to injury suffered by an occupant of a heavy transport vehicle in an accident with a car, pick-up truck, or van. This term covers injuries sustained in nontraffic accidents, meaning the incident took place somewhere other than a public highway. Notably, this classification doesn't specify the severity or type of injury sustained. Such accidents could result in various injuries, ranging from minor bruising or fractures, to more severe and potentially life-threatening damage such as head trauma or internal organ damage. The injured individual could be the driver, a passenger, or any other occupant of the heavy transport vehicle at the time of the collision.
