Hemiplegia & hemiparesis (ICD 10 G81 codes)
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.
There are three general types of paralysis: paraplegia, hemiplegia and quadriplegia. Paraplegia is paralysis of the legs and lower body resulting from injury to nerves in the areas of the lumbar or thoracic vertebrae. Hemiplegia is paralysis of one side of the body.
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.
Right-sided hemiparesis indicates injury to the left side of the person's brain while left-sided hemiparesis involves injury to the right side of the brain.

I documented “left side weakness d/t CVA.” Why did this not risk adjust? “Weakness” is code 728.87 ICD-9, M62. 81 ICD-10, which is NOT A HCC. “Weakness” is a symptom, whereas “paresis” including monoparesis, hemiparesis and even quadriparesis are diagnoses.
Less frequently, brain stem lesions; cervical spinal cord diseases; peripheral nervous system diseases; and other conditions may manifest as hemiplegia.
Hemiplegia and hemiparesis G81-. This category is to be used only when hemiplegia (complete) (incomplete) is reported without further specification, or is stated to be old or longstanding but of unspecified cause.
The term hemiparesis (see paresis) refers to mild to moderate weakness involving one side of the body. Severe or complete loss of motor function on one side of the body; this condition is usually caused by brain diseases that are localized to the cerebral hemisphere opposite to the side of weakness; less frequently, ...
The ICD code G819 is used to code Hemiparesis. Hemiparesis is weakness of the entire left or right side of the body. Hemiplegia is, in its most severe form, complete paralysis of half of the body. Hemiparesis and hemiplegia can be caused by different medical conditions, including congenital causes, trauma, tumors, or stroke. Specialty: Neurology.

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code G81.90 and a single ICD9 code, 342.90 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
