ICD-10 Code F30.8 – Other manic episodes (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F30.8 – Other manic episodes
What it is
F30.8 identifies a manic episode that does not fit the more specific ICD-10 categories for mania. Use it when the record supports mania, but the subtype is not otherwise classified.
Clinical signs
Typical findings may include elevated or irritable mood, increased energy, reduced need for sleep, pressured speech, racing thoughts, and increased goal-directed activity. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.
When to use this code
Use F30.8 when the clinician documents a manic episode and does not specify a more exact manic disorder. It is appropriate when the presentation is clearly manic, but the note does not support a different code. Check documentation if psychotic features, bipolar disorder, or another condition is described.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for hypomania, bipolar disorder without a manic episode, or mood changes caused by substances or another medical condition. If the note gives a more specific manic diagnosis, code that instead.
Coding tip
Code the most specific manic diagnosis documented, and query the provider when the note says “mania” but does not clarify the episode type.
