Additional Info
- AG REPLY --- this code is DISTINCT from all the other alcohol codes that relate to acute or chronic abuse, intoxication, etc. It exists along with its "cousins":
Tobacco use Illicit drug use
just to indicate use. But, given that neigher tobacco or alcohol is illegal, and we already have codes for abuse of those substances, I now think we SHOULD remove those 2. However, we should retain Illicit drug use. OK?
Alternate ICD10s to consider coding instead or in addition
Candidate Combined ICD10 codes
