Cognitive social or emo def fol other ntrm intcrn hemor

This code signifies a cognitive, social, or emotional impairment that develops as a sequela of a non-traumatic intracranial hemorrhage. This deficit impacts a patient's ability to process information, interact socially, or regulate emotions, and is directly attributable to the prior hemorrhage.

Apply this code when documentation clearly links a patient's current cognitive, social, or emotional deficits to a past non-traumatic intracranial hemorrhage. This includes conditions like impaired executive function, social disinhibition, or emotional lability arising after an aneurysm rupture or spontaneous intracerebral bleed. Physician documentation must specify the causal relationship and the nature of the deficit.

• Always sequence this code after the code identifying the specific type of nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage (e.g., I60.-, I61.-, I62.-).
• Do not use this code for deficits resulting from traumatic brain injury; those fall under the TBI sequelae codes.
• Ensure the medical record explicitly states "due to" or "following" the nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage for the cognitive, social, or emotional deficit.
