Is F19.930 an HCC code?
Yes. F19.930 (Other psychoactive substance use, unspecified with withdrawal, uncomplicated) 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: F19.930 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 review for F19.930
For F19.930, 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
F19.930 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other psychoactive substance use, unspecified with withdrawal, uncomplicated. Stopping use of various psychoactive substances with withdrawal symptoms that are manageable without severe complications. F19.930 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, F19.930 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 F19.930; 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.
Use this code for withdrawal symptoms without delirium or perceptual disturbances. For F19.930, 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 F19.930 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
Coding Tips
- •Use this code for withdrawal symptoms without delirium or perceptual disturbances
- •Common withdrawal symptoms include anxiety, tremors, sweating, and insomnia
Clinical Significance
Other psychoactive substance use, unspecified with withdrawal, uncomplicated indicates a patient experiencing withdrawal symptoms from psychoactive substances without the serious complications of delirium or perceptual disturbances. Withdrawal management is a critical clinical scenario requiring monitoring and often pharmacological support. This code is important for risk adjustment because it captures the active treatment burden of substance withdrawal.
Documentation Requirements
- ✓Documentation that the patient is in active withdrawal from a psychoactive substance
- ✓Identification of the specific substance(s) when possible
- ✓Description of withdrawal symptoms present (anxiety, tremors, sweating, insomnia, nausea)
- ✓Clinical assessment confirming absence of delirium or perceptual disturbances
- ✓Use of validated withdrawal assessment tool (CIWA-Ar, COWS) when applicable
- ✓Treatment plan for withdrawal management
Commonly Confused Codes
- •F19.931: Withdrawal WITH DELIRIUM represents a much more severe and dangerous presentation
- •F19.932: Withdrawal WITH PERCEPTUAL DISTURBANCE includes hallucinations during withdrawal
- •F19.230: Substance DEPENDENCE with withdrawal, uncomplicated; use when dependence criteria are documented
- •F19.920: INTOXICATION uncomplicated is the opposite clinical scenario from withdrawal
