I62.02 is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for nontraumatic subacute subdural hemorrhage. It is valid on HIPAA claims for fiscal year 2027 (October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027) and groups to MS-DRG 20 through 22, 64 through 66, 791, 793. As a secondary diagnosis, it counts as a major complication or comorbidity (MCC) and places an inpatient stay in the highest severity level of its MS-DRG family. It does not count, however, when the principal diagnosis is one of 306 closely related codes. Coders also document this condition as non-traumatic hematoma of subdural space of neuraxis. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Acute hemorrhagic cerebrovascular disease.
For Medicare Advantage risk adjustment, I62.02 maps to CMS-HCC Category 248 (Intracranial Hemorrhage) under the V28 model, adding a risk factor of about 0.239 for a community, non-dual, aged beneficiary in payment year 2027.

Excludes1
Not coded here: the excluded code is never reported together with this one, unless the two conditions are unrelated.
- traumatic intracranial hemorrhage (S06.-)

Not included here: the excluded condition is not part of this code, but a patient may have both, so both codes may be reported.
- sequelae of intracranial hemorrhage (I69.2)
- certain conditions originating in the perinatal period (P04-P96)
- certain infectious and parasitic diseases (A00-B99)
- complications of pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (O00-O9A)

Hemorrhagic Stroke
A stroke happens when there is a loss of blood flow to part of the brain. Your brain cells cannot get the oxygen and nutrients they need from blood, and they start to die within a few minutes. This can cause lasting brain damage, long-term disability, or even death.

Questions About I62.02Overview
What is the ICD-10 code for nontraumatic subacute subdural hemorrhage?
The ICD-10-CM code for nontraumatic subacute subdural hemorrhage is I62.02 (sometimes written as I6202). It is billable on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
Is I62.02 (Nontraumatic subdural hemorrhage) a billable code?
Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report nontraumatic subacute subdural hemorrhage on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
What MS-DRG does I62.02 group to?
When nontraumatic subacute subdural hemorrhage is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 793, 791, 64, 22, 65, 21, 20, 66, with relative weights from 0.6770 to 7.9594 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.
Is I62.02 a CC or MCC?
CMS lists I62.02 as an MCC (major complication or comorbidity) for FY 2027. Reported as a secondary diagnosis, it places the inpatient stay in the highest-weighted DRG of its severity family. It does not count when the principal diagnosis is one of the 306 closely related codes in its exclusion list.
Can I62.02 be reported with a code from S06?
Not as a rule. The Excludes1 note at block I60-I69, which applies to I62.02, lists "traumatic intracranial hemorrhage (S06.-)". An Excludes1 note means the excluded code is never reported together with this one; the only exception is when the two conditions are unrelated to each other (Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
What HCC is I62.02?
I62.02 (nontraumatic subacute subdural hemorrhage) maps to CMS-HCC Category 248 (Intracranial Hemorrhage), commonly written as HCC 248, in the CMS-HCC V28 model used for Medicare Advantage risk adjustment in payment year 2027. It mapped to HCC 99 under the retired V24 model. It also maps in the PACE (CMS-HCC V22), ESRD (V21), and ESRD (V24) models. It does not map to any RxHCC in the Part D prescription drug model.
Does I62.02 risk-adjust for Medicare Advantage payment?
Yes. When documented and reported on a Medicare Advantage encounter, I62.02 adds a risk adjustment factor of about 0.239 to the beneficiary's RAF score for a community, non-dual, aged enrollee (published V28 weights range from 0.081 to 0.377 depending on the payment segment). HCC 248 sits at the top of its hierarchy, so no other condition category supersedes it. See the full factor table on the HCC 248 category page.
