ICD-10-CM Code S06.4X5A
Epidural hemorrhage with loss of consciousness greater than 24 hours with return to pre-existing conscious level, initial encounter
Billable Code
Billable codes are sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis.S06.4X5A is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of epidural hemorrhage with loss of consciousness greater than 24 hours with return to pre-existing conscious level, initial encounter. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
The ICD code S064 is used to code Epidural hematoma
Epidural or extradural hematoma (haematoma), also known as an epidural hemorrhage, is a type of traumatic brain injury (TBI) in which a buildup of blood occurs between the dura mater (the tough outer membrane of the central nervous system) and the skull. The spinal cord is also covered by a layer of dura mater, so epidural bleeds may also occur in the spinal column. Often due to trauma, the condition is potentially deadly because the buildup of blood may increase pressure in the intracranial space, compress delicate brain tissue, and cause brain shift. The condition is present in one to three percent of head injuries. Around 15% - 20% of epidural hematomas are fatal.

Equivalent ICD-9 Code GENERAL EQUIVALENCE MAPPINGS (GEM)
This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code S06.4X5A and a single ICD9 code, 852.44 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
