Other speech and language deficits following unspecified cerebrovascular disease

This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).

What This Code Means

Difficulty with speech and language that develops after a stroke or other brain blood vessel problem, when the specific type of brain injury is not identified.

Coding Tips

  • •Use this code only when the cerebrovascular disease type is unspecified; if the specific CVA type is known, use the more specific I69.1, I69.2, or I69.3 series codes
  • •This code captures residual speech/language deficits (aphasia, dysarthria, etc.) that persist after the acute stroke phase
