ICD-10 Code F31.7 – Bipolar disorder, currently in remission (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F31.7 – Bipolar disorder, currently in remission
What it is
This code identifies bipolar disorder when the patient is not currently in a manic, hypomanic, or depressive episode. Use it to show the condition is present but documented as in remission.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Records may note a history of bipolar episodes with current stability, improved mood, and no active episode at the encounter.
When to use this code
Use F31.7 when the provider documents bipolar disorder as “in remission,” “stable,” or similarly inactive, and no current episode is described. It supports follow-up visits for ongoing management of a known bipolar disorder. If the note specifies the current episode type, code that episode instead.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for an active manic, hypomanic, mixed, or depressive episode. Check documentation if the record only states a history of bipolar disorder without confirming remission.
Coding tip
Confirm the provider explicitly documents remission before assigning F31.7.
