About I69.01

I69.01 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for cognitive deficits following nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage. It belongs to category I69 (sequelae of cerebrovascular disease), block I60-I69 (cerebrovascular diseases) and chapter 9 (diseases of the circulatory system). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 8 subcodes must be used instead.

Within I69.0 (sequelae of nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage), I69.01 is specifically for cognitive deficits following nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage. Related codes cover unspecified sequelae of nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (I69.00), speech and language deficits following nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (I69.02), monoplegia of upper limb following nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (I69.03), monoplegia of lower limb following nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (I69.04), hemiplegia and hemiparesis following nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (I69.05), other paralytic syndrome following nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (I69.06) and other sequelae of nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (I69.09).

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: I69.010 (hemorrhage), I69.011 (hemorrhage), I69.012 (hemorrhage), I69.013 (hemorrhage), I69.014 (hemorrhage), I69.015 (hemorrhage), I69.018 (hemorrhage) and I69.019 (hemorrhage).

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015, and changed in FY2017 (expanded into subcodes).
