Hemiplegia is a condition caused by brain damage or spinal cord injury that leads to paralysis on one side of the body. It causes weakness, problems with muscle control, and muscle stiffness.
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.
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.
Coding Guidelines Codes I60-67 specify hemiplegia, hemiparesis, and monoplegia and identify whether the dominant or nondominant side is affected.

Right Hemiplegia vs Left Hemiplegia Left hemiplegia is the paralysis of limbs on the left side of the body, while right hemiplegia indicates paralysis on the right side of the body. Like hemiparesis, right or left hemiplegia may be caused by damage to the nervous system.
What is Hemiplegia? Hemiplegia in infants and children is a type of Cerebral Palsy that results from damage to the part (hemisphere) of the brain that controls muscle movements. This damage may occur before, during or shortly after birth. The term hemiplegia means that the paralysis is on one vertical half of the body.
In general, hemiplegia is a type of unilateral cerebral palsy that causes paralysis on only one side of the body. It's due to an injury to the spinal cord or the brain. The common signs of hemiplegia are poor muscle control, muscle stiffness, and weakness.

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.
