Can someone please help me with my ICD 10 II questions?

The patient is an 81-year-old female who presented to the emergency department in a coma after having suffered a large intraventricular hemorrhage due to hypertension. How should this be coded?

Solution

2017 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code I61.5

161.5 is referred to intraventicular

hemorrhagic is coded by R58

2017 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code I61.5 is similar to 2015 ICD-9-CM 431.
