Cocaine use, unspecified, uncomplicated

This code signifies a diagnosis of cocaine use where the specific pattern of use (e.g., abuse, dependence) is not documented, and there are no associated complications such as intoxication, withdrawal, or induced mental disorders. It indicates a general, uncharacterized use of cocaine without further clinical detail regarding its impact.

Use this code when documentation clearly states "cocaine use" but lacks further specificity regarding the patient's relationship with the substance (e.g., recreational, problematic) or any acute or chronic physical/mental health consequences. It is appropriate when the provider has not diagnosed abuse, dependence, or any related conditions.

• Do not use this code if the documentation specifies cocaine abuse or dependence; instead, select the appropriate F14.1- or F14.2- code.
• Avoid this code if there are documented complications such as intoxication (F14.12-), withdrawal (F14.23-), or induced psychotic disorder (F14.15-).
• Always query the provider for greater specificity regarding the pattern of use and any associated conditions to allow for more precise coding.
