F14.9Cocaine use, unspecified

F14.9 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for cocaine use, unspecified. It belongs to category F14 (cocaine 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 8 subcodes must be used instead.

Within F14, choose F14.9 (use, unspecified) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: abuse (F14.1) and dependence (F14.2).

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: F14.90 (uncomplicated), F14.91 (in remission), F14.92 (with intoxication), F14.93 (with withdrawal), F14.94 (with cocaine-induced mood disorder), F14.95 (with cocaine-induced psychotic disorder), F14.98 (with other specified cocaine-induced disorder) and F14.99 (with unspecified cocaine-induced disorder).

Don't report F14.9 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: cocaine abuse (F14.1-) and cocaine dependence (F14.2-).

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