I69 is a non-billable ICD-10-CM category code for sequelae of cerebrovascular disease, so it cannot be submitted on claims. Use a more specific code from this category instead, such as I69.00, I69.010, I69.011, and I69.012.

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.

Questions About I69Overview

Is I69 (Sequelae of cerebrovascular disease) a billable code?

No. This is a category header that groups the codes for sequelae of cerebrovascular disease, and headers cannot be submitted on claims. Claims for sequelae of cerebrovascular disease need a more specific code from this category, such as I69.00, I69.010, and I69.011.
