ICD-10 Code F12 – Cannabis Related Disorders (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide

The ICD-10 code for Cannabis related disorders is F12.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F12 – Cannabis related disorders

What it is

F12 identifies disorders related to cannabis use, including abuse, dependence, and other cannabis-induced conditions. Use it when the record documents a cannabis-related mental or behavioral disorder.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Common findings may include problematic cannabis use, impaired control, or cannabis-associated intoxication, withdrawal, or mental changes.

When to use this code

Use F12 when the provider documents a cannabis-related disorder and does not specify a more detailed subcategory in the record. Code it for diagnoses tied to cannabis use or cannabis-induced symptoms when supported by the note.

If the chart only mentions use without a disorder, check documentation before assigning this code. Confirm whether the condition is abuse, dependence, or another cannabis-related diagnosis.

Do not use for

Do not use F12 for simple history of cannabis use, screening, or an unrelated condition. Check documentation if the note does not clearly identify a cannabis-related disorder.

Coding tip

Always code the most specific F12 subcategory documented, and verify whether the provider linked the condition to cannabis use.
