What This Code Means

Other mental or behavioral problems caused by alcohol use that do not fit into the more specific alcohol-related disorder categories.

Coding Tips

•Use this code only when a more specific F10.98x code does not apply; document the specific disorder in the medical record
•Consider whether additional codes are needed to fully capture all alcohol-induced conditions present

Clinical Significance

This code captures other alcohol-induced disorders that do not fit into the specific categories like mood disorder, anxiety, sleep, or sexual dysfunction. Examples include alcohol-induced movement disorders or other neurological complications. It serves as a catch-all for documented alcohol-induced conditions not elsewhere classified.
