What This Code Means

False beliefs or delusions that occur as a direct result of opioid use, such as believing someone is trying to harm them.

Coding Tips

  • Document the specific delusions present and their temporal relationship to opioid use
  • Ensure documentation clarifies this is opioid-induced, not a primary psychotic disorder

Clinical Significance

Opioid use, unspecified with opioid-induced psychotic disorder with delusions indicates opioid use is causing fixed false beliefs in a patient whose use pattern is not classified. This severe psychiatric complication requires urgent evaluation, differentiation from primary psychotic disorders, and integrated treatment addressing both substance use and psychosis.

Documentation Requirements

  • Documentation of specific delusions (paranoid, grandiose, persecutory, somatic)
  • Provider statement that delusions are opioid-induced
  • Temporal relationship between opioid use and delusional onset
  • Mental status examination documenting delusional content and thought process
  • Assessment ruling out schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, and other primary psychotic disorders
  • Documentation of opioid use (though pattern not classified)
  • Safety assessment and treatment plan
