Oth paralytic syndrome following oth ntrm intcrn hemor, bi

This code signifies a bilateral paralytic syndrome that develops as a sequela of a nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage, excluding subarachnoid, intracerebral, or other specific types. This neurological deficit affects both sides of the body and is a chronic condition occurring after the acute phase of the hemorrhage.

Apply this code when documentation clearly indicates a patient presents with bilateral paralysis directly attributed to a past nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage, and the specific type of hemorrhage is not otherwise classified. This code is appropriate for long-term follow-up and management of the residual neurological impairment.

• Ensure documentation specifies "bilateral" paralysis and a history of a "nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage" that is not further specified.
• Do not use this code for acute or active intracranial hemorrhages; it is for sequelae.
• Distinguish from I69.266 (unspecified paralytic syndrome) or codes for specific types of paralysis or hemorrhage.
