About F15

F15 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other stimulant related disorders. It belongs to 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 3 subcodes must be used instead.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: F15.1 (abuse), F15.2 (dependence) and F15.9 (unspecified).

The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of F15, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: cocaine-related disorders (F14.-).

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