F19.1 — Other psychoactive substance abuse
Non-billable headerICD-10-CM
F19.1 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for other psychoactive substance abuse. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below.
Other codes that can never be billed with F19.1
These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at F19.1. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading F19.1 alone.
Risk adjustment
F19.1 does not map to an HCC and does not risk-adjust under CMS-HCC V28. That is normal — most ICD-10 codes do not. It still needs to be coded correctly; it just will not move a RAF score.
