F13.18Sedative, hypnotic or anxiolytic abuse with other sedative, hypnotic or anxiolytic-induced disorders

F13.18 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for sedative, hypnotic or anxiolytic abuse with other sedative, hypnotic or anxiolytic-induced disorders. It belongs to category F13 (sedative, hypnotic, or anxiolytic related disorders), block F10-F19 (mental and behavioral disorders due to psychoactive substance use) and chapter 5 (mental, Behavioral and Neurodevelopmental disorders). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 4 subcodes must be used instead.

Within F13.1, choose F13.18 (abuse with other sedative, hypnotic or anxiolytic-induced disorders) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: abuse, uncomplicated (F13.10), abuse, in remission (F13.11), abuse with intoxication (F13.12), abuse with withdrawal (F13.13), abuse with sedative, hypnotic or anxiolytic-induced mood disorder (F13.14), abuse with sedative, hypnotic or anxiolytic-induced psychotic disorder (F13.15) and abuse with unspecified sedative, hypnotic or anxiolytic-induced disorder (F13.19).

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: F13.180 (disorder), F13.181 (dysfunction), F13.182 (disorder) and F13.188 (disorder).

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