Apraxia following unspecified cerebrovascular disease

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

What This Code Means

Loss of ability to perform purposeful movements or gestures that occurs as a lasting effect after a stroke or other brain blood vessel problem.

Coding Tips

  • •This code is used for apraxia that develops after a cerebrovascular event has resolved; document the type of apraxia if possible (ideomotor, ideational, etc.)
  • •Ensure the cerebrovascular disease is documented as the cause; if the specific type of CVD is known, use a more specific I69 code instead
