Hi! One of my providers asked me to code for "lumbar epidural hematoma." This is for an initial encounter. I came up with two ICD-10-CM codes. The first code is S30.0XXA, "contusion of lower back and pelvis." The second code is S34.109A, "unspecified injury to unspecified level of lumbar spinal cord." I chose to use the first code, S30.0XXA. Any thoughts? Thank you in advance for any help anyone can give me.
