354 - Hemiplegia and hemiparesis following cerebral infarction affecting left non-dominant side.
Coding Guidelines Residual neurological effects of a stroke or cerebrovascular accident (CVA) should be documented using CPT category I69 codes indicating sequelae of cerebrovascular disease. Codes I60-67 specify hemiplegia, hemiparesis, and monoplegia and identify whether the dominant or nondominant side is affected.
Other sequelae of cerebral infarction I69. 398 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM I69. 398 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Hemiparesis is a mild or partial weakness or loss of strength on one side of the body. Hemiplegia is a severe or complete loss of strength or paralysis on one side of the body. The difference between the two conditions primarily lies in severity.
Cerebral Infarction (Sequela) Hemiplegia is defined as paralysis of partial or total body function on one side of the body, whereas hemiparesis is characterized by one‐sided weakness, but without complete paralysis.
ICD-10 code G81. 92 for Hemiplegia, unspecified affecting left dominant side is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the nervous system .
When reporting sequela(e), you usually will need to report two codes. The first describes the condition or nature of the sequela(e) and the second describes the sequela(e) or “late effect.” For example, you may report M81.
ICD-10 code R47. 89 for Other speech disturbances is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
Sequelae of cerebral infarction. Approximate Synonyms. Hemiparesis/hemiplegia (one sided weakness/paralysis) Hemiplegia and hemiparesis of right dominant side as late effect of cerebrovascular accident. Hemiplegia and hemiparesis of right dominant side as late effect of embolic cerebrovascular accident.
Category I69 is to be used to indicate conditions in I60 - I67 as the cause of sequelae. The 'sequelae' include conditions specified as such or as residuals which may occur at any time after the onset of the causal condition. Type 1 Excludes.
