V25 vs V30

V25 (Motorcycle rider injured in collision with railway train or railway vehicle) compared with V30 (Occupant of three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in collision with pedestrian or animal), 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. V25 carries an Excludes1 note covering V30: “three-wheeled motor vehicle (V30-V39)”

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