I69. 398 - Other sequelae of cerebral infarction | ICD-10-CM.
Code category I69* (Sequelae of cerebrovascular disease) specifies the type of stroke that caused the sequelae (late effect) as well as the residual condition itself.

ICD-10 Code for Personal history of transient ischemic attack (TIA), and cerebral infarction without residual deficits- Z86. 73- Codify by AAPC.
Coding Guidelines 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.
A late effect condition can appear immediately after an illness or injury, months after, or in some cases, years later. 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.
In ICD-10 CM, code category I63 should be utilized when the medical documentation indicates that an infarction or stroke has occurred. Coding of sequelae of stroke and infarction also demands a level of detail often missing in medical records.
Sequela (Late Effects) A sequela is the residual effect (condition produced) after the acute phase of an illness or injury has terminated. There is no time limit on when a sequela code can be used.
In reporting an old, incidental cerebral infarction as a secondary diagnosis, use code Z86. 73 Personal history of transient ischemic attack (TIA), and cerebral infarction without residual deficits.
When the affected side of the condition is not known, an unspecified code is assigned. If a condition is documented as bilateral but there is no appropriate code for bilaterality (that is, both), two codes for the left and right sides are assigned.
Complications of cerebrovascular disease permanent disability. loss of cognitive functions. partial paralysis in some limbs. speech difficulties. memory loss.

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.
Late hyperacute stroke: Six to 24 hours. Acute stroke: 24 hours to one week.

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. Type 1 Excludes.

What about the TIA, people get CVA and TIA confused. Well, a TIA it’s just a little mini-stroke, what it actually means is it kind of temporary. There’s been a blockage, there’s been a problem with the blood flow but it doesn’t usually let tissue die. We think of heart tissue as dying when a person has a heart attack.
If you’re going to code an I63 code, then the guidelines tell you because there’s this new treatment called this tPA. What it is they get there soon enough. They can give you this injection of this tPA or this treatment that thins out the blood, and what could be a massive horrible stroke can almost, not be reversed but the residual and late effects could be gone. And so, this is very important; and therefore, they want to know: Was this used? If it was, you better code it because it makes a difference in the
The thing that gets you here is this comment: Category I69, which is the CVA area , is to be used to indicate conditions between this range, I60-I67, as causes of the sequelae. The ‘sequelae’ include conditions specified as such or as residual which may occur at any time after the onset of the causal condition. Again, I’m inclined to say we’ve got a Z code here, a history code, but without all of the documentation. You really can’t make a clear statement that this is the code.
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? Is it a thrombosis? What part of the vascular system inside the brain, the lining of the brain, all of that in there, but you don’t need to know that to answer this question.

Hemiplegia and hemiparesis of right dominant side as late effect of embolic cerebrovascular accident
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. Type 1 Excludes.
A type 2 excludes note represents "not included here". A type 2 excludes note indicates that the condition excluded is not part of the condition it is excluded from but a patient may have both conditions at the same time. When a type 2 excludes note appears under a code it is acceptable to use both the code ( I69.351) and the excluded code together.
