ICD-10-CM › I00-I99 › I60-I69 › I69.9 Sequelae of unspecified... › I69.91

This code exists but cannot be submitted on its own. It groups the more specific codes beneath it.

Billable FY2016 only, and a category header from FY2017.

Submit one of these 8 more specific codes instead:

• I69.910 Attention and concentration deficit following unspecified cerebrovascular disease
• I69.911 Memory deficit following unspecified cerebrovascular disease
• I69.912 Visuospatial deficit and spatial neglect following unspecified cerebrovascular disease
• I69.913 Psychomotor deficit following unspecified cerebrovascular disease
• I69.914 Frontal lobe and executive function deficit following unspecified cerebrovascular disease
• I69.915 Cognitive social or emotional deficit following unspecified cerebrovascular disease
• I69.918 Other symptoms and signs involving cognitive functions following unspecified cerebrovascular disease
• I69.919 Unspecified symptoms and signs involving cognitive functions following unspecified cerebrovascular disease

What has happened to this code

Official coding rules

Published by CDC for FY2027. A rule attached to a category binds every code beneath it, so the rules inherited from this code's ancestors are shown with the code they come from.

Inherited from I69 Sequelae of cerebrovascular disease

Excludes1 - never coded here

• personal history of cerebral infarction without residual deficit (Z86.73)
• personal history of prolonged reversible ischemic neurologic deficit (PRIND) (Z86.73)
• personal history of reversible ischemic neurologcial deficit (RIND) (Z86.73)
• sequelae of traumatic intracranial injury (S06.-)

Note

• Category I69 is to be used to indicate conditions in I60-I67 as the cause of sequelae. The 'sequelae' include conditions specified as such or as residuals which may occur at any time after the onset of the causal condition

Inherited from the I60-I69 section Cerebrovascular diseases (I60-I69)

Excludes1 - never coded here

• traumatic intracranial hemorrhage (S06.-)

Use additional code

• code to identify presence of:
• alcohol abuse and dependence (F10.-)
• exposure to environmental tobacco smoke (Z77.22)
• history of tobacco dependence (Z87.891)
• hypertension (I10-I1A)
• occupational exposure to environmental tobacco smoke (Z57.31)
• tobacco dependence (F17.-)
• tobacco use (Z72.0)

How CDC's index refers to this code

Wording from the official alphabetic index. Much of it appears nowhere in the code description, which is why a search for the everyday phrase so often finds nothing.

• Convulsions
• Late effect
• Effects, late
• Sequelae > myelitis
• Sequelae > corrosion
• Stroke > cryptogenic
• Seizure > due to stroke
• Infarct, infarction > brain
• Fracture, traumatic > sequelae
• Infarct, infarction > cerebellar
• Fracture, traumatic > late effects
• Sequelae > cerebrovascular disease
• Stroke > cerebrovascular > chronic > with residual defects
• Accident > cerebrovascular > chronic > with residual defects
• Infarct, infarction > cerebral > chronic > with residual defects
• Sequelae > poisoning -- code to poisoning with seventh character S > nonmedicinal substance
• Sequelae > disease > cerebrovascular > cognitive deficits
