About coding opioid abstinence symptoms
The ICD-10-CM code for opioid abstinence symptoms is F11.93 (Opioid use, unspecified with withdrawal). The official index lists 1 more specific code, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on F11.93.
Within F11.9 (opioid use, unspecified), F11.93 is specifically for opioid use, unspecified with withdrawal. Related codes cover uncomplicated (F11.90), in remission (F11.91), with intoxication (F11.92), with opioid-induced mood disorder (F11.94), with opioid-induced psychotic disorder (F11.95), with other specified opioid-induced disorder (F11.98) and with unspecified opioid-induced disorder (F11.99).
Don't report F11.93 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: opioid use, unspecified with intoxication (F11.92-).
As a secondary diagnosis it is a CC (complication or comorbidity), which can move an inpatient stay into the "with CC" MS-DRG of its family, unless the principal diagnosis excludes it.
