What it is

Clinical signs

When to use this code

Use this code when the record documents both stimulant use and a stimulant-induced psychotic disorder, but the stimulant is otherwise unspecified. It also fits cases where the provider links psychosis to stimulant use without naming a more specific stimulant-related diagnosis. Check documentation if substance details are unclear.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for psychosis unrelated to stimulant use, or when another substance is documented as the cause. If the chart does not support a stimulant-induced psychotic disorder, check documentation.

Coding tip

Code only when the provider clearly connects the psychotic disorder to stimulant use and the stimulant remains unspecified.
