F11.1Opioid abuse

F11.1 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for opioid abuse. It belongs to category F11 (opioid 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 8 subcodes must be used instead.

Within F11 (opioid related disorders), F11.1 is specifically for opioid abuse. Related codes cover dependence (F11.2) and use, unspecified (F11.9).

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: F11.10 (uncomplicated), F11.11 (in remission), F11.12 (with intoxication), F11.13 (with withdrawal), F11.14 (with opioid-induced mood disorder), F11.15 (with opioid-induced psychotic disorder), F11.18 (with other opioid-induced disorder) and F11.19 (with unspecified opioid-induced disorder).

Don't report F11.1 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: opioid dependence (F11.2-) and opioid use, unspecified (F11.9-).

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