G83.1 vs I69.24

G83.1 (Monoplegia of lower limb) compared with I69.24 (Monoplegia of lower limb following other nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage), from the official CMS tabular data. Do not report these codes together: the official tabular list marks them Excludes1.

Can these codes be reported together?

No — do not report together. G83.1 carries an Excludes1 note covering I69.24: “monoplegia of lower limbs due to sequela of cerebrovascular disease (I69.04-, I69.14-, I69.24-, I69.34-, I69.84-, I69.94-)”

Sole exception: when the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
