Opioid use, unspecified with intoxication with perceptual disturbance
ICD-10 F11.922 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of opioid use, unspecified with intoxication with perceptual disturbance.
F11.922 refers to a condition characterized by the use of opioids, which are substances that act on the nervous system to relieve pain but can lead to addiction and other health issues. This specific code indicates that the individual is experiencing intoxication from opioid use, accompanied by perceptual disturbances, which may include hallucinations or altered sensory perceptions. The diagnosis is crucial as it highlights the severity of the opioid use disorder and the immediate risks associated with intoxication. Opioid use disorder is a complex condition that often requires comprehensive treatment approaches, including medication-assisted treatment (MAT), counseling, and support groups. The presence of perceptual disturbances can complicate the clinical picture, necessitating careful monitoring and management to ensure patient safety and effective treatment outcomes. Clinicians must document the specifics of the intoxication episode, including the type of opioid used, the duration of use, and any co-occurring mental health conditions, to provide a clear clinical picture for accurate coding and treatment planning.
Detailed history of substance use, specific symptoms of intoxication, and treatment plans.
Patients presenting with acute intoxication, withdrawal symptoms, or complications from opioid use.

Comprehensive mental health evaluation, including assessment of perceptual disturbances and their impact on functioning.
Patients with a history of substance use presenting with psychotic symptoms or mood disturbances.
Need for careful assessment of the interplay between substance use and underlying psychiatric conditions.
Used for patients receiving counseling for opioid use disorder.
Document the nature of counseling and the patient's progress.

Documenting perceptual disturbances is crucial as it indicates the severity of the intoxication and may influence treatment decisions and patient safety.
