Poisn by androgens and anabolic congeners, assault, sequela

This code signifies a long-term health consequence resulting from an intentional act of poisoning with androgens or anabolic steroids. The patient has experienced a past assault involving these substances, and the current medical encounter addresses a residual condition directly attributable to that event.

Apply this code when documenting a current medical condition or symptom that is a direct and lasting sequela of a previous assault involving androgen or anabolic congener poisoning. This would be used for follow-up care or management of chronic issues stemming from such an event, not for the initial acute poisoning.

• Always sequence this code after the code(s) for the specific sequela being treated.
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to a past assault involving androgen/anabolic poisoning.
• Do not use for acute poisoning; this code is exclusively for sequelae.
