ICD-10 Code F13.150 – Sedative, hypnotic or anxiolytic abuse with sedative, hypnotic or anxiolytic-induced psychotic disorder with delusions (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F13.150 – Sedative, hypnotic or anxiolytic abuse with sedative, hypnotic or anxiolytic-induced psychotic disorder with delusions
What it is
This code identifies sedative, hypnotic, or anxiolytic abuse that has caused a psychotic disorder with delusions. Use it when the record links the substance use to the psychotic symptoms.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Typical findings include delusional thinking, impaired reality testing, and a clear association with sedative, hypnotic, or anxiolytic use.
When to use this code
Use this code when the provider documents abuse of a sedative, hypnotic, or anxiolytic and also states that the patient has a substance-induced psychotic disorder with delusions. The documentation should support both the substance category and the psychotic complication. If the record does not clearly connect the psychosis to the substance, check documentation.
Do not use for
Do not use it for simple sedative or anxiolytic abuse without psychosis, or for psychosis caused by another substance. If delusions are not documented, select the more accurate code.
Coding tip
Confirm that “abuse” and the substance-induced delusional psychosis are both explicitly documented before assigning F13.150.
