Hemiplga fol oth ntrm intcrn hemor aff right dominant side

This code signifies weakness or paralysis on one side of the body (hemiparesis or hemiplegia) that developed as a sequela of a non-traumatic intracranial hemorrhage. The neurological deficit specifically affects the right dominant side of the patient's body. This condition is a chronic consequence, not an acute event.

Use this code when documentation clearly indicates a patient is experiencing residual right-sided hemiplegia or hemiparesis directly attributable to a past non-traumatic intracranial hemorrhage (e.g., spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage, subarachnoid hemorrhage). This code is appropriate for long-term follow-up and rehabilitation encounters where the neurological deficit is the primary focus.

• Always confirm the laterality (right) and the dominant side as documented by the clinician.
• Distinguish between hemiplegia (complete paralysis) and hemiparesis (partial weakness); this code covers both.
• Ensure the hemorrhage was explicitly non-traumatic; if traumatic, a different sequela code would be appropriate.
