F44.0: Dissociative amnesia
F44.0 is a billable, specific ICD-10-CM code for dissociative amnesia. It is valid for submission on a claim.
Check F44.0 with the rest of the claim: free scrubberExcludes1: never code together
These conditions cannot occur together. Billing both on the same encounter is a denial.
Excludes2: not included here, but may coexist
The excluded condition is not part of this code, but a patient can have both. You may code both.
Other codes that can never be billed with F44.0
Their own Excludes1 notes name this code, so the conflict is not listed above.
Risk adjustment
F44.0 risk-adjusts. Under the CMS-HCC V28 model it maps to these categories:
- HCC 153 Personality Disorders; Anorexia/Bulimia Nervosa0.396 RAF
- HCC 153 Personality Disorders; Anorexia/Bulimia Nervosa0.396 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. Look up the whole chart to see which of its HCCs the hierarchy would zero.
Medicare coverage
F44.0 is named in 10 Medicare coverage policies: 9 listing it as supporting medical necessity, and 1 listing it as NOT covered. Which one applies depends on your Medicare contractor.
