What This Code Means

A person is dependent on alcohol and experiences sleep problems directly caused by their alcohol use.

Coding Tips

•This code requires documentation of both alcohol dependence AND a sleep disorder specifically attributed to alcohol use
•Do not use this code if the sleep disorder exists independently of alcohol use

Clinical Significance

This code captures alcohol dependence with alcohol-induced sleep disorder, reflecting the clinical complexity of alcohol use disorders and their systemic effects. Proper classification of the use level and associated complications is essential for treatment planning and resource allocation. Risk adjustment models recognize the significant healthcare utilization associated with alcohol use disorders and their complications.

Documentation Requirements

✓Documentation of alcohol dependence with at least three of: tolerance, withdrawal, use in larger amounts/longer periods than intended, persistent desire or unsuccessful efforts to cut down, significant time spent obtaining/using/recovering, important activities given up, continued use despite knowledge of physical/psychological problems
✓Assessment and plan addressing alcohol use disorder with treatment recommendations (counseling, medication-assisted treatment, referral, etc.)

Commonly Confused Codes

F10.1x — Alcohol abuse codes; abuse is a less severe pattern — if documentation says 'dependence,' do not downcode to abuse F10.9x — Alcohol use, unspecified; always code dependence when documented, as it carries appropriate risk adjustment weight
