I69.012 vs Z86.73

I69.012 (Visuospatial deficit and spatial neglect following nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage) compared with Z86.73 (Personal history of transient ischemic attack (TIA), and cerebral infarction without residual deficits), from the official CMS tabular data. Do not report these codes together: the official tabular list marks them Excludes1.

Personal history of transient ischemic attack (TIA), and cerebral infarction without residual deficits

Not coded here — these two are mutually exclusive.

“personal history of cerebral infarction without residual deficit (Z86.73)”

An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur together, so the pair should not be reported for the same encounter. The sole exception is when the conditions are documented as unrelated to each other.
