Is F12.11 an HCC code?

No. F12.11 is a billable ICD-10-CM code but does not map to any HCC category in V28, V24, ESRD, or RxHCC.

This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).

What This Code Means

F12.11 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for cannabis abuse, in remission. A person previously abused cannabis but is now in remission, meaning they have stopped or significantly reduced their cannabis use. F12.11 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for mental, behavioral and neurodevelopmental disorders (f01-f99), within the section covering mental and behavioral disorders due to psychoactive substance use (f10-f19).

F12.11 is a billable ICD-10-CM code but does not map to a payment HCC under the CMS-HCC V28, V24, ESRD, or RxHCC risk adjustment models. It can be reported on Medicare Advantage encounter data submissions but it does not contribute to a beneficiary's RAF score and therefore does not affect risk-adjusted payments to the plan.

This code is appropriate when the patient has achieved sustained abstinence or controlled use after a period of abuse.

HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, RAF weights, and MEAT documentation criteria for F12.11 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
