The ICD-10 code for Opioid abuse, in remission is F11.11.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F11.11 – Opioid abuse, in remission

What it is

This code identifies a history of opioid abuse that is currently in remission. Use it when the patient no longer meets criteria for active abuse, but the condition remains clinically relevant.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. You may see a charted history of opioid misuse with current remission, abstinence, or recovery status noted by the clinician.

When to use this code

Use this code when the record clearly states opioid abuse is in remission and there is no evidence of current active use disorder. It is appropriate for follow-up visits, behavioral health documentation, or problem lists that still track the prior condition. Check documentation if the chart only says “history of opioid use” without specifying abuse or remission.

Do not use for

Do not use it for active opioid abuse, dependence, or opioid use without documentation of abuse in remission. If the record is unclear, check documentation.

Coding tip

Match the code to the exact wording in the assessment; “in remission” must be documented to support F11.11.
