Opioid use, unsp w opioid-induc psych disorder w hallucin

This code signifies a patient diagnosed with an unspecified opioid use disorder who is also experiencing a psychotic disorder specifically induced by opioid use, characterized by the presence of hallucinations. This represents a severe manifestation of opioid-related mental health complications.

Apply this code when documentation clearly indicates a diagnosis of opioid use disorder without further specification of severity (e.g., mild, moderate, severe), alongside a co-occurring psychotic disorder directly attributed to opioid use, with specific mention of hallucinations. Supporting documentation should include a psychiatric evaluation confirming both the substance use disorder and the opioid-induced psychotic features.

• Ensure documentation explicitly states "hallucinations" as a symptom of the opioid-induced psychotic disorder; otherwise, a different code for opioid-induced psychotic disorder without hallucinations may be more appropriate.
• If the specific type or severity of opioid use disorder is documented (e.g., opioid dependence, opioid abuse, mild/moderate/severe), a more specific F11.x code should be used instead of F11.9.
• Always sequence the opioid use disorder code first, followed by any associated physical or mental health conditions, unless another condition is the primary reason for the encounter.
