What it is

This code identifies psychosis caused by stimulant use, with hallucinations, when the stimulant is documented as other or unspecified. Use it when the mental disturbance is directly linked to stimulant exposure.

Clinical signs

Common findings include hallucinations, disturbed perception, paranoia, or other psychotic symptoms temporally associated with stimulant use. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Use this code when the record clearly states stimulant-induced psychotic disorder with hallucinations and the stimulant is not named or is documented as other/unspecified. It fits cases where the psychosis is attributed to stimulant use rather than a primary psychotic disorder. Check documentation if the substance type is unclear.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for psychosis without hallucinations, or when the condition is due to another substance class. Do not use it if the chart supports a primary psychotic disorder instead.

Coding tip

Confirm both the stimulant-related cause and the hallucinations in the provider note before assigning F15.951.
