Poisoning by oral contraceptives, assault, initial encounter

This code signifies an adverse health event resulting from the intentional administration of oral contraceptives to a patient by another person with the intent to cause harm. The patient is experiencing the acute effects of the poisoning.

Apply this code when documenting the initial treatment for a patient who has been poisoned by oral contraceptives in an assault scenario. This includes emergency department visits, initial hospital admissions, or the first outpatient encounter for this specific event.

• Always sequence this code first for the poisoning event, followed by codes for specific manifestations of the poisoning.
• Ensure documentation clearly supports the "assault" intent and the "initial encounter" for treatment.
• Consider additional codes for external causes (e.g., Y07.XX) to fully describe the circumstances of the assault.
