I69.2

I69.2 — Sequelae of other nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage

Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

I69.2 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for sequelae of other nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below.

Excludes1 inherited from the categories above I69.2

These are not written on I69.2, but they bind it: a note on a category applies to every code beneath it. Billing I69.2 with anything listed here is a denial.

Written on I69 — Sequelae of cerebrovascular disease

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.-)

Other codes that can never be billed with I69.2

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at I69.2. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading I69.2 alone.

F06.7Mild neurocognitive disorder due to known physiological condition
G31.84Mild cognitive impairment of uncertain or unknown etiology
G81Hemiplegia and hemiparesis
G83.1Monoplegia of lower limb
G83.2Monoplegia of upper limb
I69.26Other paralytic syndrome following other nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage
Z86.73Personal history of transient ischemic attack (TIA), and cerebral infarction without residual deficits
R41.84Other specified cognitive deficit

Risk adjustment

I69.2 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.

Code history

I69.2 has not changed since FY2024 — no addition, revision or deletion across the three most recent ICD-10-CM releases.

Code to one of these instead I69.2
