Nontraumatic intracerebral hemorrhage, unspecified. I61.9 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM I61.9 became effective on October 1, 2018.
The new codes are for describing the infusion of tixagevimab and cilgavimab monoclonal antibody (code XW023X7), and the infusion of other new technology monoclonal antibody (code XW023Y7).

Intracerebral hemorrhage (bleeding into the brain tissue) is the second most common cause of stroke (15-30% of strokes) and the most deadly. Blood vessels carry blood to and from the brain. Arteries or veins can rupture, either from abnormal pressure or abnormal development or trauma.
Intracranial hemorrhage encompasses four broad types of hemorrhage: epidural hemorrhage, subdural hemorrhage, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and intraparenchymal hemorrhage. Each type of hemorrhage results from different etiologies and the clinical findings, prognosis, and outcomes are variable.
This space is called the subdural space because it is below the dura. Bleeding into this space is called a subdural hemorrhage. Other names for subdural hematoma are subdural hemorrhage or intracranial hematoma. More broadly, it is also a type of traumatic brain injury (TBI).
It is important to understand the difference between the terms intracranial hemorrhage and intracerebral hemorrhage. The former refers to all bleeding occurring within the skull, while the latter indicates bleeding within the brain parenchyma. All intracranial hemorrhages (ICH) share some classic clinical features.
Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH), also known as intracranial bleed, is bleeding within the skull. Subtypes are intracerebral bleeds (intraventricular bleeds and intraparenchymal bleeds), subarachnoid bleeds, epidural bleeds, and subdural bleeds. More often than not it ends in a lethal outcome.
Intracerebral hemorrhage: This involves bleeding inside the brain, and it is the most common type of intracranial hemorrhage and is not usually the result of an injury.
Intraparenchymal hemorrhage (IPH; Figure 1) refers to nontraumatic bleeding into the brain parenchyma. (Intracerebral hemorrhage, often abbreviated ICH, is used more often in the clinical literature.) Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) refers to bleeding into the space between the pia and the arachnoid membranes.
Overview. Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is caused by bleeding within the brain tissue itself — a life-threatening type of stroke. A stroke occurs when the brain is deprived of oxygen and blood supply. ICH is most commonly caused by hypertension, arteriovenous malformations, or head trauma.
There are many causes, including trauma, rupture of a bulging blood vessel (aneurysm), poorly connected arteries and veins from birth, high blood pressure, and tumors. Diseases can cause spontaneous leakage of blood into the brain. A head trauma can result in multiple severe intracerebral hematomas.
Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) refers to acute bleeding inside your skull or brain. It's a life-threatening emergency. You should go to the emergency room right away or call 911 if you think you or someone you know is experiencing ICH.
Intraparenchymal hemorrhage (IPH) is one form of intracerebral bleeding in which there is bleeding within brain parenchyma. The other form is intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH). Intraparenchymal hemorrhage accounts for approximately 8-13% of all strokes and results from a wide spectrum of disorders.
There are three main types of bleeding: arterial, venous, and capillary bleeding.

Hemorrhage is bleeding from a damaged blood vessel. Many things can cause hemorrhage inside and outside the body. Types of hemorrhage range from minor, such as a bruise, to major, such as bleeding in the brain. If you can't stop external bleeding or suspect internal bleeding, seek immediate medical attention.
Bleeding inside the brain tissue Two types of brain bleeds can occur inside the brain tissue itself – intracerebral hemorrhage (also called cerebral hemorrhage and hemorrhagic stroke) and intraventicular hemorrhage.
I61.8 is a valid billable ICD-10 diagnosis code for Other nontraumatic intracerebral hemorrhage . It is found in the 2021 version of the ICD-10 Clinical Modification (CM) and can be used in all HIPAA-covered transactions from Oct 01, 2020 - Sep 30, 2021 .
