Monoplg low lmb fol ntrm intcrbl hemor aff right dom side

This code signifies paralysis affecting a single lower limb on the right side, resulting from a nontraumatic intracerebral hemorrhage. The paralysis is a sequela of the hemorrhage, indicating a chronic or long-term effect. The "dominant side" specifies the right side as the patient's preferred or stronger side.

Use this code for patients presenting with established right lower limb monoplegia directly attributed to a prior nontraumatic intracerebral hemorrhage. Documentation should clearly state the causal link between the hemorrhage and the monoplegia, the specific limb affected, and laterality. This code is appropriate for follow-up care and management of the chronic neurological deficit.

• Ensure documentation specifies "nontraumatic" intracerebral hemorrhage as the etiology.
• Confirm the monoplegia affects the right lower limb and not the upper limb or both.
• This code is for sequelae; an additional code for the initial intracerebral hemorrhage (if still active) or its specific type may be necessary depending on the encounter.
