ICD-10 Code F10.951 – Alcohol use, unspecified with alcohol-induced psychotic disorder with hallucinations (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F10.951 – Alcohol use, unspecified with alcohol-induced psychotic disorder with hallucinations
What it is
This code identifies alcohol use, not otherwise specified, with a psychotic disorder caused by alcohol and marked by hallucinations. Use it when the hallucinations are attributed to alcohol-related psychosis, not a primary psychiatric condition.
Clinical signs
Typical findings include hallucinations with a clear alcohol-related cause, often alongside other psychotic symptoms. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation for the exact presentation and whether the episode is acute or persistent.
When to use this code
Use this code when the provider documents unspecified alcohol use together with alcohol-induced psychotic disorder with hallucinations. It fits records that link hallucinations directly to alcohol use or withdrawal-related psychosis. Check documentation if the chart does not clearly connect the psychosis to alcohol.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for hallucinations from a primary psychotic disorder, delirium, or another substance. Do not code it when alcohol involvement is not documented or the diagnosis is only suspected.
Coding tip
Confirm that the record states both unspecified alcohol use and alcohol-induced psychotic disorder with hallucinations before assigning F10.951.
