F03.94Unspecified dementia, unspecified severity, with anxiety

Billable / specific codeICD-10-CM

F03.94 is a billable, specific ICD-10-CM code for unspecified dementia, unspecified severity, with anxiety. It is valid for submission on a claim.

Excludes2 inherited from the categories above F03.94

Also inherited, and the opposite of Excludes1: these conditions are not part of F03.94, but a patient can have both, so you may code both.

Written on F03 Unspecified dementia

  • dementia with delirium or acute confusional state (F05)
  • mild memory disturbance due to known physiological condition (F06.8)

Other codes that can never be billed with F03.94

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at F03.94. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading F03.94 alone.

  • F06Other mental disorders due to known physiological condition
  • F06.7Mild neurocognitive disorder due to known physiological condition
  • G30Alzheimer's disease
  • G31.84Mild cognitive impairment of uncertain or unknown etiology
  • R54Age-related physical debility

Risk adjustment

F03.94 risk-adjusts. Under the CMS-HCC V28 model it maps to this category:

  • HCC 127 Dementia, Mild or Unspecified0.341 RAF

Coefficient shown for the Community Non-dual Aged segment. A higher HCC in the same hierarchy will suppress this one, so capturing it does not always add score.

Medicare coverage

F03.94 is named in 18 Medicare coverage policies 17 listing it as supporting medical necessity, and 1 listing it as NOT covered. Which of them applies to you depends on your Medicare contractor, and coverage genuinely differs by state.

How F03.94 is indexed

Coders do not find codes by browsing the tabular list — they look them up in the alphabetic index, under the word the physician wrote. These are the index entries that lead here, so you can see which chart wordings map to F03.94.
