What it is

Use this code for alcohol abuse accompanied by a psychotic disorder in which delusions are present and the psychosis is caused by alcohol use. The diagnosis should reflect that the alcohol-related condition is the primary documented cause.

Clinical signs

Typical documentation includes alcohol abuse plus delusional thinking, such as fixed false beliefs, with evidence that symptoms are substance-induced. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Assign F10.150 when the provider documents alcohol abuse and specifically identifies alcohol-induced psychotic disorder with delusions. Use it for encounters where the delusions are linked to alcohol use, not to a primary psychotic disorder. Check documentation if the record does not clearly connect the psychosis to alcohol.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for alcohol dependence, uncomplicated alcohol abuse, or psychosis not attributed to alcohol. If the record does not specify delusions, check documentation.

Coding tip

Code the alcohol-induced psychotic disorder only when the provider clearly documents both alcohol abuse and delusions caused by alcohol.
