About F10.12

F10.12 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for alcohol abuse with intoxication. It belongs to category F10 (alcohol related disorders), block F10-F19 (mental and behavioral disorders due to psychoactive substance use) and chapter 5 (mental, Behavioral and Neurodevelopmental disorders). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 3 subcodes must be used instead.

Within F10.1 (alcohol abuse), F10.12 is specifically for alcohol abuse with intoxication. Related codes cover uncomplicated (F10.10), in remission (F10.11), with withdrawal (F10.13), with alcohol-induced mood disorder (F10.14), with alcohol-induced psychotic disorder (F10.15), with other alcohol-induced disorders (F10.18) and with unspecified alcohol-induced disorder (F10.19).

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: F10.120 (uncomplicated), F10.121 (delirium) and F10.129 (unspecified).

Use an additional code for blood alcohol level, if applicable (Y90.-).

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
