ICD-10 Code I69.212: Visuospatial deficit and spatial neglect following other nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage
Reviewed by HealthAssure Clinical TeamUpdated 26 May 2026
What is this code?
ICD-10 codes are diagnosis classification codes used in healthcare records, reporting, coding workflows, and billing support. This code sits within the broader ICD-10 area for Diseases of the circulatory system (I00-I99).
đź“‹Clinical overview
This ICD-10 code is commonly used when documentation describes chronic neurologic deficits following another nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage. The most accurate code depends on whether the record identifies cognitive, speech, swallowing, motor, or other residual deficits, and whether laterality or side-dominance detail is documented.
When is it used?
- May be used when a clinician documents visuospatial deficit and spatial neglect following other nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage in a patient's medical record.
- May appear in hospital records, claims, referrals, and clinical documentation.
- This code can be used as a clinically usable diagnosis entry in standardized coding workflows.
What it does not mean
- A code alone does not explain severity, treatment plan, or outcome.
- A medical code should not be treated as a substitute for a doctor's diagnosis or advice.
đź©şClinical context
When commonly used
- Neurology, stroke follow-up, rehabilitation, therapy, and primary-care documentation where lasting deficits after another nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage remain clinically relevant.
- Coding and utilization-review workflows where the chart clearly links chronic neurologic impairment to prior intracranial hemorrhage and the exact residual deficit pattern changes the final diagnosis code.
Common management context
- Post-hemorrhagic neurologic sequelae follow-up often includes neurologic exam findings, swallowing or speech assessment, cognitive review, therapy planning, mobility evaluation, and coordination across neurology and rehabilitation teams.
- Documentation usually becomes more specific when the chart identifies the dominant residual deficit, affected side, dominant versus non-dominant involvement, dysphagia, aphasia, or other lasting functional impairment.
- Specialist context already linked on this page includes Cardiologist, General Physician, Orthopedic Specialist, Neurologist.
🔍Key distinctions
Important notes
- This ICD-10 family captures chronic sequelae attributed to another prior nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage rather than an active hemorrhagic event, and the final code usually depends on the documented residual deficit pattern.
- Cognitive, speech, swallowing, and motor deficits after intracranial hemorrhage are coded separately from one another when the chart names the lasting impairment more specifically.
- This title reflects cognitive or neurobehavioral sequelae following other nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage, which are coded separately from speech, swallowing, or motor deficits when the lasting impairment is documented more specifically.
- Documentation that ties the residual deficit to prior other nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage is coded differently from similar sequelae linked to subarachnoid hemorrhage, intracerebral hemorrhage, or cerebral infarction.
