ICD-10 Code F12.922 – Cannabis use, unspecified with intoxication with perceptual disturbance (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F12.922 – Cannabis use, unspecified with intoxication with perceptual disturbance
What it is
This code identifies cannabis intoxication when the substance is unspecified and the patient has perceptual disturbance. Use it when the chart documents acute cannabis-related intoxication with altered sensory perception.
Clinical signs
Clinical features may include euphoria, anxiety, impaired judgment, and perceptual changes such as altered sense of time or mild hallucination-like experiences. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.
When to use this code
Use this code when the provider documents cannabis intoxication and specifically notes perceptual disturbance, but does not identify the cannabis type beyond unspecified. It may fit emergency, urgent care, or behavioral health notes describing acute intoxication with sensory misperception. Verify that the record supports intoxication rather than simple use.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for uncomplicated cannabis use without intoxication or without perceptual disturbance. Do not use it when another substance is responsible, or when documentation does not support acute intoxication.
Coding tip
Code the highest level of documented specificity, and check whether the note clearly links the perceptual disturbance to cannabis intoxication.
