Is F13.288 an HCC code?
Yes. F13.288 (Sedative, hypnotic or anxiolytic dependence with other sedative, hypnotic or anxiolytic-induced disorder) maps to HCC 137, Drug Use Disorder, Moderate/Severe, or Drug Use with Non-Psychotic Complications under the CMS-HCC V28 risk adjustment model, with a source-labeled community non-dual aged reference coefficient of 0.424. Source-labeled code-level coefficients are references, not member totals. Actual contribution depends on complete member context, hierarchy and cleanup rules, interactions, and model year. HCC Buddy's RAF Calculator supports CMS-HCC V28 PY2026 and shows no score unless every required source and calculation check passes. It is billable for payment year 2026.
Coder answer: F13.288 is billable and maps to V28 HCC 137, Drug Use Disorder, Moderate/Severe, or Drug Use with Non-Psychotic Complications. Open it in the Code Book for the tabular path, RAF, and MEAT checklist.

HCC Category Mapping
These are source-labeled model coefficients, not member totals. A category may still be removed by hierarchy or model cleanup rules. Weights are not directly comparable across models: CMS-HCC V28 and V24 use Community, Non-Dual, Aged; ESRD uses the dialysis continuing-enrollee model; RxHCC is the Part D continuing-enrollee, non-low-income, aged weight (a larger scale than CMS-HCC). ACA/HHS has no single weight — it varies by metal level. Actual per-patient RAF contribution depends on member context, hierarchy and cleanup rules, interactions, and the model year used by the payer. V28 is the CMS-HCC model phased in over payment years 2024–2026; V24 remains available for historical review.

MEAT Criteria for F13.288
For F13.288 to count as a valid HCC diagnosis in a given encounter, the provider's documentation must show MEAT: Monitor, Evaluate, Assess, or Treat. A diagnosis from a prior year does not carry forward automatically, it has to be re-documented and supported each calendar year.
- MMonitor: signs, symptoms, disease progression, or lab trending documented in the note
- EEvaluate: test results, medication response, or physical findings reviewed by the provider
- AAssess: explicit mention in the assessment or plan with acknowledgment of status
- TTreat: medication, referral, procedure, therapy, or counseling tied to the diagnosis
Only one of M/E/A/T is required to support the code, but the documentation must be specific enough to show that the provider actually addressed F13.288 during that encounter, not just copy-forwarded from a problem list.

What This Code Means
F13.288 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for sedative, hypnotic or anxiolytic dependence with other sedative, hypnotic or anxiolytic-induced disorder. A person is dependent on sedatives, sleeping pills, or anti-anxiety medications and is experiencing other mental or physical health problems caused by these drugs that are not listed in other specific codes. F13.288 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).
Under the CMS-HCC V28 risk adjustment model, F13.288 maps to Drug Use Disorder, Moderate/Severe, or Drug Use with Non-Psychotic Complications (HCC 137) with a source-labeled community, non-dual, aged reference coefficient of 0.424. No V24 mapping is shown for F13.288; use the applicable model and payment year when reviewing the V28 mapping. V28 is the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model that reached 100% phase-in for payment year 2026, replacing V24 which was used during the PY2024–PY2025 transition. Source-labeled code-level coefficients are references, not member totals. Actual contribution depends on complete member context, hierarchy and cleanup rules, interactions, and model year. HCC Buddy's RAF Calculator supports CMS-HCC V28 PY2026 and shows no score unless every required source and calculation check passes.
Use this code only after confirming that the condition does not fit into more specific F13.28x subcategories. Because F13.288 maps to an HCC category, the provider's documentation must satisfy MEAT criteria (Monitor, Evaluate, Assess, or Treat) before the diagnosis is used for risk adjustment. When documentation is ambiguous, coders should issue a provider query rather than assume the highest-specificity variant.
HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, source-labeled coefficient references, and MEAT documentation criteria for F13.288 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
Coding Tips
- •Use this code only after confirming that the condition does not fit into more specific F13.28x subcategories
- •Clearly document the specific disorder or condition being coded in the medical record
Clinical Significance
This code captures other specified substance-induced disorders from sedative dependence that do not fit standard categories. Examples include substance-induced obsessive-compulsive disorder, neurocognitive disorder not meeting dementia criteria, or movement disorders. Accurate coding of these less common complications ensures the full scope of the patient's substance-related morbidity is captured.
Documentation Requirements
- ✓Documentation of sedative, hypnotic, or anxiolytic dependence
- ✓Clear description of the specific induced disorder that does not fit other F13.28x categories
- ✓Provider documentation establishing causal link to the substance
- ✓Clinical rationale explaining why more specific codes do not apply
- ✓Assessment results supporting the specific induced disorder diagnosis
- ✓Treatment plan for both the dependence and the induced disorder
Commonly Confused Codes
- •F13.29: Dependence with unspecified induced disorder; use when the disorder is unknown, not when it is known but atypical
- •F13.280: Induced anxiety disorder; use if the condition is specifically anxiety
- •F13.281: Induced sexual dysfunction; use if the condition is specifically sexual dysfunction
- •F13.282: Induced sleep disorder; use if the condition is specifically a sleep problem
- •F13.188: Sedative ABUSE with other induced disorder; less severe use pattern
