Buddy Documentation Tip

HCC Buddy guidance
Provider must document cocaine as the specific substance being abused
Documentation must establish abuse pattern (not dependence) per DSM-5 criteria
Active intoxication at the time of encounter must be noted
Specific perceptual disturbances must be described (e.g., visual hallucinations, tactile hallucinations such as formication, auditory disturbances)

Audit Caution

HCC Buddy guidance
Confusing perceptual disturbance (transient sensory misperception during intoxication) with a full cocaine-induced psychotic disorder requiring F14.150/F14.151
Failing to distinguish between abuse and dependence status, which changes the code to the F14.2xx series
Using this code when cocaine use is documented but the pattern does not meet the clinical threshold for abuse
Coding perceptual disturbance without documentation that it occurred during active intoxication

Common Mistakes

HCC Buddy guidance
F14.120 — Cocaine abuse with intoxication, uncomplicated: use when intoxication is present but NO perceptual disturbance or delirium is documented
F14.121 — Cocaine abuse with intoxication delirium: use when confusion/disorientation (delirium) is the primary feature rather than perceptual disturbance alone
F14.150 — Cocaine abuse with cocaine-induced psychotic disorder with delusions: use when the perceptual symptoms have evolved into a full psychotic disorder with fixed false beliefs
F14.222 — Cocaine dependence with intoxication with perceptual disturbance: use when the pattern meets criteria for dependence rather than abuse

Is F14.122 an HCC code?

Yes. F14.122 (Cocaine abuse with intoxication with perceptual disturbance) 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: F14.122 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.

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 review for F14.122

For F14.122, confirm that the documentation supports the diagnosis and meets the applicable coding, encounter, program and payer requirements. MEAT (Monitor, Evaluate, Assess, or Treat) is a review mnemonic, not a universal CMS coding rule.

  • 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

What This Code Means

F14.122 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for cocaine abuse with intoxication with perceptual disturbance. A person abuses cocaine and is currently intoxicated, experiencing hallucinations or other distorted perceptions. F14.122 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, F14.122 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 F14.122; use the applicable model and payment year when reviewing the V28 mapping. For CY2026 non-PACE Medicare Advantage, CMS uses 100% of the 2024 CMS-HCC model (V28). PACE uses a separate model blend. 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.

Perceptual disturbance includes hallucinations, illusions, or other sensory misperceptions during cocaine intoxication. For F14.122, confirm that the documentation supports the diagnosis and meets the applicable coding, encounter, program and payer requirements. MEAT (Monitor, Evaluate, Assess, or Treat) is a review mnemonic, not a universal CMS coding rule. 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 F14.122 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.

Coding Tips

  • Perceptual disturbance includes hallucinations, illusions, or other sensory misperceptions during cocaine intoxication
  • Document the specific type of perceptual disturbance if possible (visual, auditory, tactile, etc.)

Clinical Significance

Cocaine abuse with intoxication featuring perceptual disturbance represents an acute, complicated presentation that indicates the patient's cocaine use has escalated to produce sensory misperceptions such as hallucinations or illusions. This is clinically significant because perceptual disturbances during cocaine intoxication can signal neurotoxicity and increase the risk of dangerous behavior, self-harm, or progression to cocaine-induced psychosis. Accurate capture is essential for risk adjustment as it reflects higher acuity substance use requiring more intensive monitoring and treatment resources.

Documentation Requirements

  • Provider must document cocaine as the specific substance being abused
  • Documentation must establish abuse pattern (not dependence) per DSM-5 criteria
  • Active intoxication at the time of encounter must be noted
  • Specific perceptual disturbances must be described (e.g., visual hallucinations, tactile hallucinations such as formication, auditory disturbances)
  • Temporal relationship between cocaine use and onset of perceptual disturbance must be established
  • Assessment ruling out primary psychotic disorder as the cause of perceptual disturbance

Commonly Confused Codes

  • F14.120: Cocaine abuse with intoxication, uncomplicated: use when intoxication is present but NO perceptual disturbance or delirium is documented
  • F14.121: Cocaine abuse with intoxication delirium: use when confusion/disorientation (delirium) is the primary feature rather than perceptual disturbance alone
  • F14.150: Cocaine abuse with cocaine-induced psychotic disorder with delusions: use when the perceptual symptoms have evolved into a full psychotic disorder with fixed false beliefs
  • F14.222: Cocaine dependence with intoxication with perceptual disturbance: use when the pattern meets criteria for dependence rather than abuse
  • F14.129: Cocaine abuse with intoxication, unspecified: less specific code when perceptual disturbance is not documented
