F12.91

What This Code Means

This code indicates a patient has a history of cannabis use disorder but is currently in remission, meaning they are not actively using cannabis. Remission means the person has stopped using the substance and is maintaining that abstinence.

Coding Tips

• •Use this code only when documentation clearly states the patient is in remission from cannabis use disorder; do not use if active use is ongoing
• •Remission status should be documented in the medical record; consider pairing with counseling or treatment codes if the patient is receiving ongoing support services
