S06.332D is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for contusion and laceration of cerebrum, unspecified, with loss of consciousness of 31 minutes to 59 minutes, subsequent encounter. The 7th character D marks it as a subsequent encounter code, used during routine care in the healing or recovery phase. It is valid on HIPAA claims for fiscal year 2027 (October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027) and groups to MS-DRG 949 through 950. The code is exempt from POA reporting. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Traumatic brain injury (TBI); concussion, subsequent encounter.

Notes

General instructions on how these codes are used.

From S06 Intracranial injury applies to 569 codes

Patient EducationClinical

Traumatic Brain Injury

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a sudden injury that causes damage to the brain. It may happen when there is a blow, bump, or jolt to the head. This is a closed head injury. A TBI can also happen when an object penetrates the skull. This is a penetrating injury.

Questions About S06.332DOverview

Is S06.332D a billable code?

Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report contusion and laceration of cerebrum, unspecified, with loss of consciousness of 31 minutes to 59 minutes, subsequent encounter on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

What does the 7th character D in S06.332D mean?

The final character D marks a subsequent encounter: use it for routine care while the contusion and laceration of cerebrum, unspecified, with loss of consciousness of 31 minutes to 59 minutes is healing, after active treatment has ended.

What MS-DRG does S06.332D group to?

When contusion and laceration of cerebrum, unspecified, with loss of consciousness of 31 minutes to 59 minutes, subsequent encounter is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 950, 949, with relative weights from 0.7661 to 1.1231 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.

Is S06.332D exempt from POA reporting?

Yes. CMS lists this code among those exempt from present on admission reporting, so hospitals do not assign a POA indicator for contusion and laceration of cerebrum, unspecified, with loss of consciousness of 31 minutes to 59 minutes, subsequent encounter on inpatient claims. The code appears in the Injuries to the head (S00-S09) range of the CMS exempt list.

Can S06.332D be reported with S09.90?

Not as a rule. The Excludes1 note at S06, which applies to S06.332D, lists "head injury NOS (S09.90)". An Excludes1 note means the excluded code is never reported together with this one; the only exception is when the two conditions are unrelated to each other (Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
