Need some help with coding. If pt had subdural hematoma as a result of fall (S06.5X0D), but later underwent burr hole drainage, craniotomy, would it be considered encounter for specified surgical aftercare (Z48.89)?

    Thank you! SO just to make it clear: S code for traumatic hematoma Subsequent encounter. NO aftercare surgery.
