F06Other mental disorders due to known physiological condition

F06 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other mental disorders due to known physiological condition. It belongs to block F01-F09 (mental disorders due to known physiological conditions) and chapter 5 (mental, Behavioral and Neurodevelopmental disorders). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 7 subcodes must be used instead.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: F06.0 (condition), F06.1 (condition), F06.2 (condition), F06.3 (condition), F06.4 (condition), F06.7 (condition) and F06.8 (condition).

Don't report F06 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: unspecified dementia (F03.-).

The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of F06, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: delirium due to known physiological condition (F05), dementia as classified in F01-F02 and other mental disorders associated with alcohol and other psychoactive substances (F10-F19).

Code first: the underlying physiological condition.

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
