ICD-10 Code F10.288 – Alcohol dependence with other alcohol-induced disorder (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F10.288 – Alcohol dependence with other alcohol-induced disorder
What it is
This code identifies alcohol dependence when the patient also has another alcohol-induced disorder. Use it when the record shows a dependence pattern and a separate alcohol-related condition, but not one of the more specific alcohol-induced codes.
Clinical signs
Common findings include compulsive alcohol use, tolerance, withdrawal symptoms, and continued drinking despite harm. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation for the specific alcohol-induced disorder.
When to use this code
Use F10.288 when the clinician documents alcohol dependence plus another alcohol-induced disorder, such as a psychotic, mood, or sleep-related condition, and the chart does not support a more specific code. Confirm that both conditions are documented and linked to alcohol use.
Choose this code when the record clearly states dependence and another alcohol-induced diagnosis together. If the documentation names a more specific alcohol-induced disorder code, use that code instead.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for alcohol abuse, uncomplicated dependence, or alcohol intoxication alone. Check documentation if the alcohol-induced disorder is specified elsewhere.
Coding tip
Verify that the provider documents both alcohol dependence and the additional alcohol-induced disorder before assigning F10.288.
