F14.29 — Cocaine dependence with unspecified cocaine-induced disorder
Is F14.29 billable?
Yes, but F14.29 is an unspecified code. F14.29 is a valid, billable ICD-10-CM code for encounters from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027. However, F14.29 is an unspecified or catch-all code. Payers apply additional scrutiny to unspecified codes and many deny them when the medical record supports a more specific option, so check the documentation before selecting F14.29 — the more specific alternatives are listed below.
