I63.9 is a cerebral infarction, unspecified, or stroke not otherwise specified. Now, in ICD-10 it is very specific. I even went on and I took it off because I gave you all the list of all of these codes due to this and that, and ultimately is it an embolism?
ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code I69.9 "Present On Admission" is defined as present at the time the order for inpatient admission occurs — conditions that develop during an outpatient encounter, including emergency department, observation, or outpatient surgery, are considered POA.

To report a late effect condition, you'll usually use two codes: One for the residual condition (e.g., scar), and another to identify the condition as a late effect of a previous illness or injury....Put It All TogetherCode the residual condition.Assign the late effects code.Add an E code, if necessary.
Sequelae are residual effects or conditions produced after the acute phase of an illness or injury has ended. Therefore there is no time limit on when a sequela code can be assigned. Residuals may be apparent early on such as in cerebral infarction, or they can occur months or years later.....

1. Acute Ischemic Stroke (ICD-10 code I63. *) should not be coded from an outpatient setting because confirmation of the diagnosis should be determined by diagnostics studies, such as non-contrast brain CT or brain MRI, which would be ordered in an emergency room and/or inpatient setting. 2.
Z86. 73 - Personal history of transient ischemic attack (TIA), and cerebral infarction without residual deficits | ICD-10-CM.
Z91.81There is also another code available in ICD-10 for falls: Z91. 81 (History of falling). This code is to be used when the patient has fallen before and is at risk for future falls.
A cerebral infarction (ICD-9-CM code 434.91), also called a stroke or cerebrovascular accident (CVA), occurs when the blood supply to a part of the brain is slowed or interrupted and brain tissue is deprived of oxygen and nutrients, causing cells to die.

The quick answer is, you have a couple choices, and the couple choices is you can code it as a history, Z86.73, or you can code it as unspecified sequelae I69.30. Now, the long answer; when you look at those two codes, always err on the side of caution here, but let’s look at this and read them.
Now, in ICD-10 it is very specific.
In most cases the manifestation codes will have in the code title, "in diseases classified elsewhere.". Codes with this title are a component of the etiology/manifestation convention. The code title indicates that it is a manifestation code.

In the encoder I put late/effect/CVA/hemiplegia/ unspecified (because it doesn't say whether left side was dominant or not. The code comes up 438.20 and tabular confirms Hemiplegia/hemipararesis (Late effect of CVA).
Go with 438.89. Look at the tip under 438.89 in the ICD-9 expert. Use 728.87 as your secondary code for residual weakness due to CVA.
