Not Valid for Submission
S06.2X5 is a "header" nonspecific and non-billable code code, consider using a code with a higher level of specificity for a diagnosis of diffuse traumatic brain injury with loss of consciousness greater than 24 hours with return to pre-existing conscious levels. The code is NOT valid for the year 2020 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions. The ICD-10-CM code S06.2X5 might also be used to specify conditions or terms like brain contusion with open intracranial wound, with more than 24 hours loss of consciousness and return to pre-existing conscious level, closed cerebral contusion, cortex contusion with open intracranial wound, cortex contusion with open intracranial wound and loss of consciousness, cortex contusion with open intracranial wound, with more than 24 hours loss of consciousness and return to pre-existing conscious level, cortex contusion without open intracranial wound, etc
