ICD-10 code for opioid use

The ICD-10-CM code for opioid use is F11.90 (Opioid use, unspecified, uncomplicated). The official index lists 11 more specific codes, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on F11.90.

Within F11.9 (opioid use, unspecified), F11.90 is specifically for opioid use, unspecified, uncomplicated. Related codes cover in remission (F11.91), with intoxication (F11.92), with withdrawal (F11.93), 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).

It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.

In MS-DRG v44.0, it is part of the grouping logic for DRG 894 (Alcohol, Drug Abuse or Dependence, Left AMA, relative weight 0.6275), DRG 895 (Alcohol, Drug Abuse or Dependence with Rehabilitation Therapy, relative weight 1.4266), DRG 896 (Alcohol, Drug Abuse or Dependence without Rehabilitation Therapy with MCC, relative weight 1.6617) and DRG 897 (Alcohol, Drug Abuse or Dependence without Rehabilitation Therapy without MCC, relative weight 0.8584), in MDC 20 (Alcohol/Drug Use and Alcohol/Drug Induced Organic Mental Disorders), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
