The ICD-10-CM is a catalog of diagnosis codes used by medical professionals for medical coding and reporting in health care settings. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) maintain the catalog in the U.S. releasing yearly updates.
5. History of Stroke (ICD-10 code Z86. 73) should be used when the patient is being seen in an out patient setting subsequent to an inpatient stay. In addition, this code should be used when the patient does not exhibit neurologic deficits due to cerebrovascular disease (i.e., no late effects due to stroke).
Unspecified sequelae of cerebral infarction The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM I69. 30 became effective on October 1, 2021.
For ischaemic stroke, the main codes are ICD-8 433/434 and ICD-9 434 (occlusion of the cerebral arteries), and ICD-10 I63 (cerebral infarction).
The new code that is reported for lacunar infarction is: I63. 81—Other cerebral infarction due to occlusion or stenosis of small artery.
Residual neurological effects of a stroke or cerebrovascular accident (CVA) should be documented using CPT category I69 codes indicating sequelae of cerebrovascular disease. Codes I60-67 specify hemiplegia, hemiparesis, and monoplegia and identify whether the dominant or nondominant side is affected.
When to code Sequela. Seventh character 'S' is used for coding “complication or condition that arise for the direct result of the injury such as scar formation after a burn”. The scars are sequela of the burn. Sequelas are late effects of an injury.
When a patient has a history of cerebrovascular disease without any sequelae or late effects, ICD-10 code Z86. 73 should be assigned.
A lacunar stroke, also called a lacunar infarct, occurs when an artery that supplies blood to the deeper portions of the brain becomes blocked. Other types of strokes occur on the surface, or cortex, of the brain. Lacunar strokes represent anywhere from 15% to 25% of strokes.
89 Other cerebral infarction Code I63. 81 includes lacunar infarction to align with the World Health Organization's indexing of this condition.

stroke occurs when there is disruption of blood flow to brain tissue, this leads to ischemia (deprivation of oxygen) and potentially infarction (dysfunctional scar tissue). Strokes can be either hemorrhagic, or embolic/thrombotic. Hemorrhagic strokes occur as a result of a ruptured cerebral blood vessel. Embolic/thrombic strokes occur as a result of an obstructed cerebral vessel.
