Non-billable headerICD-10-CMleft

S02.11H is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for other fracture of occiput, left side. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below. This code also requires a 7th character before it is complete.

K

Excludes2 inherited from the categories above S02.11H

Also inherited, and the opposite of Excludes1: these conditions are not part of S02.11H, but a patient can have both, so you may code both.

Written on S02.1 — Fracture of base of skull

Other codes that can never be billed with S02.11H

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at S02.11H. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading S02.11H alone.

  • S01Open wound of head

Risk adjustment

S02.11H does not map to an HCC and does not risk-adjust under CMS-HCC V28. That is normal — most ICD-10 codes do not. It still needs to be coded correctly; it just will not move a RAF score.

How S02.11H is indexed

Coders do not find codes by browsing the tabular list — they look them up in the alphabetic index, under the word the physician wrote. These are the index entries that lead here, so you can see which chart wordings map to S02.11H.
