Code Classification

  • Diseases of the circulatory system
    (I00–I99)
    • Cerebrovascular diseases
      (I60-I69)
      • Other cerebrovascular diseases
        (I67)

I67 is a non-specific and non-billable diagnosis code code, consider using a code with a higher level of specificity for a diagnosis of other cerebrovascular diseases. The code is not specific and is NOT valid for the year 2024 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions. Category or Header define the heading of a category of codes that may be further subdivided by the use of 4th, 5th, 6th or 7th characters.

Specific Coding Applicable to Other cerebrovascular diseases

Non-specific codes like I67 require more digits to indicate the appropriate level of specificity. Consider using any of the following ICD-10-CM codes with a higher level of specificity when coding for other cerebrovascular diseases:

  • Use I67.0 for Dissection of cerebral arteries, nonruptured - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I67.1 for Cerebral aneurysm, nonruptured - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I67.2 for Cerebral atherosclerosis - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I67.3 for Progressive vascular leukoencephalopathy - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I67.4 for Hypertensive encephalopathy - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I67.5 for Moyamoya disease - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I67.6 for Nonpyogenic thrombosis of intracranial venous system - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I67.7 for Cerebral arteritis, not elsewhere classified - BILLABLE CODE

  • I67.8 for Other specified cerebrovascular diseases - NON-BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I67.81 for Acute cerebrovascular insufficiency - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I67.82 for Cerebral ischemia - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I67.83 for Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome - BILLABLE CODE

  • I67.84 for Cerebral vasospasm and vasoconstriction - NON-BILLABLE CODE

  • I67.85 for Hereditary cerebrovascular diseases - NON-BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I67.89 for Other cerebrovascular disease - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I67.9 for Cerebrovascular disease, unspecified - BILLABLE CODE

Tabular List of Diseases and Injuries

The following annotation back-references are applicable to this diagnosis code. The Tabular List of Diseases and Injuries is a list of ICD-10-CM codes, organized "head to toe" into chapters and sections with coding notes and guidance for inclusions, exclusions, descriptions and more.


Type 1 Excludes

Type 1 Excludes
A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes note. It means "NOT CODED HERE!" An Excludes1 note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as the code above the Excludes1 note. An Excludes1 is used when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.
  • Occlusion and stenosis of cerebral artery causing cerebral infarction I63.3 I63.5
  • Occlusion and stenosis of precerebral artery causing cerebral infarction I63.2

Type 2 Excludes

Type 2 Excludes
A type 2 excludes note represents "Not included here". An excludes2 note indicates that the condition excluded is not part of the condition represented by the code, but a patient may have both conditions at the same time. When an Excludes2 note appears under a code, it is acceptable to use both the code and the excluded code together, when appropriate.
  • sequelae of the listed conditions I69.8

Patient Education


Brain Diseases

Your brain is the control center of your body. It controls your thoughts, memory, speech, and movement. It regulates the function of many organs. It's part of your nervous system, which also includes your spinal cord and peripheral nerves. The nervous system sends signals between your brain and the rest of the body. Your nerves take in information from your senses and send it to the brain to be processed. Your brain and nerves also communicate to help you move and to control your body's functions.

When the brain is healthy, it works quickly and automatically. But when you have a brain disease, it may affect how well you can function and do your daily activities. Some common brain diseases include:

  • Brain tumors, which can press on nerves and affect brain function.
  • Degenerative nerve diseases, which can affect many of your body's activities, such as balance, movement, talking, breathing, and heart function. Types include Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease.
  • Encephalitis (inflammation in the brain), which can lead to problems such as vision loss, weakness, and paralysis.
  • Genetic brain disorders, which are caused by changes in genes (also called variants or mutations). These disorders can affect the development and function of the brain.
  • Strokes, which can cause a loss of brain cells and can affect your ability to think clearly.
  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), which can affect brain function. They may range from mild to severe. The effects of a TBI may be temporary or permanent.

The symptoms of brain diseases vary widely, depending on the specific problem. In some cases, damage is permanent. In other cases, treatments such as surgery, medicines, or therapies such as physical, occupational, and speech therapies, may cure the disease or improve the symptoms.
