2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code I69.913 – Psychomotor deficit following unspecified cerebrovascular disease

What it is

I69.913 identifies a psychomotor deficit that remains after an unspecified cerebrovascular disease. Use it when the record links slowed movement, impaired initiation, or reduced motor response to a prior stroke-like event.

Clinical signs

Clinical features may include slowed voluntary movements, delayed responses, or reduced coordination of motor actions. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Use this code when the provider documents psychomotor deficit as a sequela of a previous cerebrovascular disease and does not specify the stroke type or cause. The deficit should be current and clearly tied to the old event, not an acute episode. Check documentation if laterality or a more specific residual deficit is documented.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for acute cerebrovascular disease, transient symptoms without a documented residual deficit, or psychomotor slowing from nonvascular causes. Check documentation when the cause is unclear.

Coding tip

Code the residual deficit first and make sure the chart supports a past cerebrovascular disease as the cause.
