V04.038 (Pedestrian on other standing micro-mobility pedestrian conveyance injured in collision with heavy transport vehicle or bus in nontraffic accident) compared with V09.01 (Pedestrian injured in nontraffic accident involving military vehicle), 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. V04.038 carries an Excludes1 note covering V09.01: “pedestrian injured in collision with military vehicle (V09.01, V09.21)”

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