ICD-10 Code F12.28 – Cannabis dependence with other cannabis-induced disorder (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F12.28 – Cannabis dependence with other cannabis-induced disorder
What it is
F12.28 identifies cannabis dependence when the patient also has another cannabis-induced disorder. Use it when documentation shows both dependence and a separate cannabis-related mental or physical condition.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Commonly reported findings include compulsive cannabis use, difficulty controlling use, and signs of a cannabis-induced disorder such as mood, anxiety, or psychotic symptoms.
When to use this code
Use this code when the record clearly states cannabis dependence plus another cannabis-induced disorder, and both are documented by the provider. It is appropriate when the induced disorder is not coded separately as a more specific cannabis-related diagnosis. Check documentation if the relationship is unclear.
Do not use for
Do not use F12.28 for cannabis use without dependence, or for dependence without a documented cannabis-induced disorder. Do not assign it if the other condition is unrelated to cannabis.
Coding tip
Confirm that the provider links the dependence and the induced disorder before coding F12.28.
