  • Not billable as written — a more specific code is required: V03.931A, V03.931D, V03.931S.
  • Requires a 7th character. "The appropriate 7th character is to be added to each code from category V03" Options: V03.931A, V03.931D, V03.931S
  • Principal-diagnosis restriction. External cause of morbidity codes (V, W, X and Y) describe the circumstance that caused an injury, not the condition treated.
