Poisoning by oral contraceptives, self-harm, subs

This code signifies a patient presenting for follow-up care or treatment of complications arising from an intentional overdose of oral contraceptive medications. The self-harm attempt occurred at an earlier point, and the current encounter addresses ongoing medical needs related to that event.

Apply this code for subsequent visits where a patient is being monitored for organ damage, psychological sequelae, or other adverse effects after an intentional oral contraceptive poisoning. This includes follow-up appointments with toxicology, psychiatry, or general medicine after initial stabilization.

• Ensure the documentation clearly states the poisoning was an intentional act of self-harm, not accidental or assault.
• Confirm this is a "subsequent encounter" (D) and not the initial treatment (A) or sequela (S).
• Always code any specific adverse effects or complications of the poisoning in addition to this code.
