V03.931 vs W03

V03.931 (Pedestrian on standing electric scooter injured in collision with car, pick-up or van, unspecified whether traffic or nontraffic accident) compared with W03 (Other fall on same level due to collision with another person), from the official CMS tabular data. Do not report these codes together: the official tabular list marks them Excludes1.

Can these codes be reported together?

No — do not report together. V03.931 carries an Excludes1 note covering W03: “fall due to non-transport collision with other person (W03)”

Sole exception: when the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
