Coding Your Saturday Evening

I find it interesting that psilocybin has not one but six different ways to be recorded in your medical record should, god forbid, it come to that.

There’s and option for poisoning (969.6), accident (E854.1), for ‘therapeutic’ use (E939.6), suicide attempt (?!) (E950.3), assault (!!??!) (E962.0), and the ever reliable ‘unintentional’ (E980.3). There are also six similar codes for Cannabis, LSD and PCP.

Pleasantly, smog, sewer gas and lighter fluid have no known therapeutic use codes, though each can be used as a weapon of assault in a pinch.
