What This Code Means

A person who is dependent on opioids and is currently intoxicated (under the influence) from opioid use without severe complications like delirium.

Coding Tips

  • Document the signs and symptoms of intoxication (drowsiness, slurred speech, impaired coordination)
  • Distinguish between uncomplicated intoxication and intoxication with delirium (F11.221)

Clinical Significance

Opioid dependence with uncomplicated intoxication indicates a dependent patient is currently under the influence of opioids without delirium or perceptual disturbances. This may be seen in emergency settings or during active use episodes in patients known to have dependence. It reflects acute-on-chronic substance use requiring monitoring.

Documentation Requirements

  • Provider documentation of opioid dependence
  • Documentation of current intoxication signs (miosis, sedation, slurred speech, respiratory depression)
  • Confirmation that intoxication is uncomplicated (no delirium, no perceptual changes)
  • Vital signs including respiratory rate
  • Assessment for overdose risk
  • Type of opioid if known
