Paralysis
Paralysis is the loss of muscle function in part of your body. It happens when something goes wrong with the way messages pass between your brain and muscles. Paralysis can be complete or partial. It can occur on one or both sides of your body. It can also occur in just one area, or it can be widespread.

Questions About I69.364Overview
Is I69.364 (Other paralytic syndrome following cerebral infarction) a billable code?
Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report other paralytic syndrome following cerebral infarction affecting left non-dominant side on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
What MS-DRG does I69.364 group to?
When other paralytic syndrome following cerebral infarction affecting left non-dominant side is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 57, 56, with relative weights from 1.2835 to 2.2649 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.
Is I69.364 exempt from POA reporting?
Yes. CMS lists this code among those exempt from present on admission reporting, so hospitals do not assign a POA indicator for other paralytic syndrome following cerebral infarction affecting left non-dominant side on inpatient claims. The code appears in the Cerebrovascular diseases (I60-I69) range of the CMS exempt list.
Can I69.364 be reported with a code from I69.35?
Not as a rule. The Excludes1 note at I69.36, which applies to I69.364, lists "hemiplegia/hemiparesis following cerebral infarction (I69.35-)". An Excludes1 note means the excluded code is never reported together with this one; the only exception is when the two conditions are unrelated to each other (Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
Does I69.364 need an additional code?
When the condition applies, yes. The Use Additional Code note at I69.36, which applies to I69.364, reads: code to identify type of paralytic syndrome, such as: locked-in state (G83.5); quadriplegia (G82.5-). The additional code is reported after I69.364.
What HCC is I69.364?
I69.364 (other paralytic syndrome following cerebral infarction affecting left non-dominant side) maps to CMS-HCC Category 254 (Monoplegia, Other Paralytic Syndromes), commonly written as HCC 254, in the CMS-HCC V28 model used for Medicare Advantage risk adjustment in payment year 2027. It mapped to HCC 104 under the retired V24 model. It also maps in the PACE (CMS-HCC V22), ESRD (V21), and ESRD (V24) models. It does not map to any RxHCC in the Part D prescription drug model.
Does I69.364 risk-adjust for Medicare Advantage payment?
Yes. When documented and reported on a Medicare Advantage encounter, I69.364 adds a risk adjustment factor of about 0.321 to the beneficiary's RAF score for a community, non-dual, aged enrollee (published V28 weights range from 0.000 to 0.365 depending on the payment segment). A more severe related category (HCC 180, HCC 181, HCC 191, HCC 192, and HCC 253) supersedes it when both are reported. See the full factor table on the HCC 254 category page.
