What This Code Means

A person is dependent on cocaine and is currently intoxicated, but the specific type of intoxication symptoms are not documented or specified.

Coding Tips

  • Use this code when cocaine intoxication is present but details about perceptual disturbances or other specific symptoms are not documented
  • This is a less specific code; query the provider if more detail about intoxication symptoms is available

Clinical Significance

Cocaine dependence with intoxication, unspecified is used when a cocaine-dependent patient is intoxicated but the documentation does not specify whether complications like delirium or perceptual disturbance are present. This represents a documentation gap, as the specific nature of the intoxication presentation affects treatment decisions. Any cocaine intoxication in a dependent patient requires monitoring for cardiovascular emergencies and behavioral instability.

Documentation Requirements

  • Provider documentation of cocaine dependence
  • Documentation of current intoxication state
  • Clinical signs of cocaine intoxication documented
  • Explanation or notation that specific intoxication complications cannot be further determined
  • Vital signs and basic assessment
