What This Code Means

F09 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for unspecified mental disorder due to known physiological condition. A mental health disorder caused by a known medical condition when the specific type of mental disorder cannot be determined or is not specified. F09 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for mental, behavioral and neurodevelopmental disorders (f01-f99), within the section covering mental disorders due to known physiological conditions (f01-f09).

F09 is a billable ICD-10-CM code, but no current CMS-HCC V28 community payment mapping is shown, and none under the ESRD, Part D RxHCC, or HHS-HCC models. Do not assign risk adjustment value from this page when no source-backed mapping is shown; verify the applicable model and payment year.

This is a catch-all code for mental disorders due to medical conditions that don't fit other specific categories.

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, source-labeled coefficient references, and MEAT documentation criteria for F09 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
