Cannabis dependence with other cannabis-induced disorder

This code signifies a patient's compulsive and continued use of cannabis despite harmful consequences, accompanied by a co-occurring cannabis-induced mental or behavioral disorder not otherwise specified. This includes conditions like cannabis-induced anxiety disorder, sleep disorder, or other specified cannabis-induced conditions.

Apply this code when documentation clearly indicates a diagnosis of cannabis dependence alongside a distinct cannabis-induced psychiatric condition, such as cannabis-induced panic attacks or cannabis-induced psychotic disorder, that doesn't have a more specific ICD-10-CM code. The provider's assessment should confirm both the dependence and the causal link between cannabis use and the other disorder.

• Ensure the documentation explicitly states both cannabis dependence and a specific, but not otherwise classified, cannabis-induced disorder.
• Do not use this code if the cannabis-induced disorder has a more specific ICD-10-CM code (e.g., cannabis-induced psychotic disorder with delusions).
• Consider sequencing this code after any acute cannabis intoxication codes, if applicable, but before codes for withdrawal.
