Relationships & Classification

Other codes that name S02.110G or its code family, from the CMS ICD-10-CM tabular instructional notes. Tabular-note edges are stored at the code family level that carries each note.

Referenced by 1 Excludes1 note: S01 — Open wound of head (via S02.-).

These codes’ tabular lists mark this diagnosis as mutually exclusive — not reported together unless the conditions are documented as unrelated.

Referenced by 2 Excludes2 notes: S02.3 — Fracture of orbital floor (via S02.1.-), S05 — Injury of eye and orbit (via S02.1.-).

These codes’ tabular lists name this diagnosis as distinct — both may be reported when both are documented.

Referenced by 1 Code First instruction: R40.2 — Coma (via S02.-).

These codes instruct coders to sequence this condition first when it applies.

Referenced by 1 Use Additional Code instruction: S07 — Crushing injury of head (via S02.-).

These codes instruct coders to additionally report this code when it applies.

Referenced by 2 Code Also instructions: S04 — Injury of cranial nerve (via S02.-), S06 — Intracranial injury (via S02.-).

These codes suggest coding this condition alongside when both are present.

MS-DRG Grouper Relationships (FY2026)

Not on the CMS CC/MCC list — as a secondary diagnosis this code does not change MS-DRG severity.

Named in the grouper logic of 3 MS-DRGs: DRG 559 (MDC 08), DRG 560 (MDC 08), DRG 561 (MDC 08).

From the CMS MS-DRG Definitions Manual (Appendices B and C). Actual DRG assignment depends on the complete claim.

Clinical classification (AHRQ CCSR):INJ038 — Fracture of head and neck, subsequent encounter (default).
