About ICD-9-CM 852.54
852.54 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for extradural hemorrhage following injury with open intracranial wound, with prolonged [more than 24 hours] loss of consciousness and return to pre-existing conscious level. ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-CM took over.
The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 2 ICD-10-CM codes, such as S01.90XA (Unspecified open wound of unspecified part of head, initial encounter) and S06.4X5A (Epidural hemorrhage with loss of consciousness greater than 24 hours with return to pre-existing conscious level, initial encounter). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one. Some mappings are combinations: more than one ICD-10 code is needed to fully express the ICD-9 code.
