What This Code Means
I69.322 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for dysarthria following cerebral infarction. Difficulty with speech articulation and clarity that persists after a stroke, making speech slurred or hard to understand. I69.322 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for diseases of the circulatory system (i00-i99), within the section covering cerebrovascular diseases (i60-i69).
I69.322 is a billable ICD-10-CM code, but the current payload does not show a mapping under the CMS-HCC V28, V24, ESRD, or RxHCC models. Do not assign risk adjustment value from this page when no source-backed mapping is shown; verify the applicable model and payment year.
Dysarthria is a motor speech disorder affecting articulation, distinct from aphasia or dysphasia which are language disorders.
HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, source-labeled coefficient references, and MEAT documentation criteria for I69.322 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
