Therefore, based on the index, code S09. 90xA is assigned for documentation of closed head injury (initial encounter).
Injury, unspecified ICD-10-CM T14. 90XA is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0): 913 Traumatic injury with mcc. 914 Traumatic injury without mcc.
A closed brain injury is caused by a rapid forward or backward movement and shaking of the brain inside the bony skull that results in bruising and tearing of brain tissue and blood vessels. Closed brain injuries are usually caused by car accidents, falls, and increasingly, in sports.

ICD-10 code Z87. 820 for Personal history of traumatic brain injury is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Factors influencing health status and contact with health services .
Z87. 820 - Personal history of traumatic brain injury. ICD-10-CM.
A closed head injury is trauma to the head that does not cause a break in the skull.
ICD-10 code R51 for Headache is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
A traumatic brain injury (TBI), also known as an intracranial injury, is an injury to the brain caused by an external force.
Loss of consciousness is a partial or complete loss of the perception of yourself and all that around you. When the loss of consciousness is temporary and there is a spontaneous recovery, that is to say, “a blackout”, in medical terms it is known as a syncope.
Unspecified intracranial injury with loss of consciousness of unspecified duration, initial encounter. S06. 9X9A is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
S06.9X9A9X9A for Unspecified intracranial injury with loss of consciousness of unspecified duration, initial encounter is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes .
For this example, the cause of injury is the puncture wound of the head. Subcategory “S01” of the ICD-10 Tabular List gives the instruction to also code any intracranial injury which includes the injury to the brain with a loss of consciousness. Since this injury does not include an intent, a code from Chapter 20 is added to signify the intent of self-harm and the method by handgun.
The ICD-10-CM code would be T40.2X2A, Poisoning by other opioids, intentional self-harm. The sixth character of “2” indicates the poisoning was intentional.
The ICD-10-CM code would be T71.162A, Asphyxiation due to hanging, intentional self-harm, initial encounter.
The conversion from ICD-9 to ICD-10 saw a vast improvement in data capture. ICD-10-CM brought a more complete description of coding scenarios, allowing coding professionals to fully capture a patient’s condition. For example, a code for poisoning consists of one combination code including the drug taken and the intent—whether intentional, accidental, assault, or undetermined. This is not only important for the coding professional, but also for those who study the data derived from ICD-10-CM codes. Since many of these codes can be captured with combination codes, it makes it much simpler to abstract data for those who need it.
This code includes the time for testing, interpreting, and a written report must be prepared. Coding is completed in 1-hr units but anything less than an hour is claimed as 1 unit. Documentation must include clinically indicated portions of an assessment of thinking, reasoning and judgment (e.g., attention, acquired knowledge, language, memory and problem solving).
TBI SCREENING: Code Z13.850 should be used if TBI screening occurs at a visit, whether or not the screening is positive. A TBI diagnosis code should not be entered for a positive screen since a positive TBI screen does not indicate a TBI diagnosis. A TBI diagnosis code can only be entered for the encounter at which the diagnosis is made.
The pairing of the symptom code and the late effect code is the ONLY WAY that symptoms can be causally and uniquely associated with TBI and is essential to the accurate classification of TBI.
FOLLOW UP CARE (Subsequent/Sequela Encounter ): Subsequent encounter designation will be used for encounters after the patient has received active treatment of the condition and is receiving routine care for the condition during the healing or recovery phase, and sequela (late effect) designation will be used for complications that arise as a direct result of the condition. For follow up visits for late effects directly related to a previous TBI, the symptom code(s) that best represents the patient’s chief complaint or symptom(s) (e.g., headache, insomnia, vertigo) are coded, followed by the appropriate late effect code or sequela code. This will be the initial TBI injury code with the seventh character of S for sequela. Late effects include any symptom or sequelae of the injury specified as such, which may occur at any time after the onset of the injury. The External Causes of Morbidity (V01-Y99) code will also need to be added with a seventh character of S.
For ICD-10-CM the appropriate 7thcharacter will be added to the code to indicate the type of encounter: A initial encounter will be used while the patient is receiving active treatment for the condition D subsequent encounter will be used for encounters after the patient has received active treatment of the condition and receiving routine care for the condition during the healing or recovery phase S sequela will be used for complications that arise as a direct result of the condition
USE of Z87.820 CODE: Z87.820 Personal history of traumatic brain injury was developed to indicate that previous TBI occurred and may impact current care. The Z87.820 code is not used in conjunction with the late effect codes; rather the Z code is used when no other code is available to reflect a previous TBI. Normally, the Z87.820 code is used to identify a personal history of injury with or without a confirmed diagnosis. A history of an illness, even if no longer present, is important information that may alter the type of treatment ordered.
