What is the "time frame" for using the ICD-10 codes for cerebral infarction (I60-I63 series) versus cerebral infarction with residual effects (I69 series) or personal history of cerebral infarction with no residual effects (Z86.73)? I remember reading an article that basically stated you would not use codes from the I60-I63 series unless the patient was actively having a stroke in front of you (or once the patient was released from the hospital). I cannot find this in the actual ICD-10 guidelines unless I am just completely missing something. I want to be sure I'm giving my providers correct information.
