ICD-10 Implementation Date Final - 10/1/2014
The final rule setting the ICD-10-CM implementation date as October 1, 2014 was released by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) this morning.
The rule, which will be published in the Federal Register Sept. 5, ends months of speculation spawned when public comment was solicited by CMS in April. The rule, which also sets dates for health plan and provider identifiers, emphasizes providers and payers must adopt the code set by the 2014 date, which is a one-year delay from the previous implementation date.

Without seeing the chart, it's difficult to say, but they don't have to OD in order to use the poisoning code. You did state that the bronchospasm was due to crack use. For instance, they can take a perfectly normal medication dose, but if they also drink one beer, and the resulting condition causes the admission, it's a poisoning.
I agree with Sharon both on the poisoning as PDx, and on the current guidelines for sequencing respiratory failure. That rule about taking the non-respiratory diagnosis was superseded several years ago.
