Wiki Bipolar II diagnosis

[Brenda1973]

Hi, can someone please tell me the diagnosis code for:

Diagnosis: Bipolar II, most recent episode depressed

Is there only one code for all Bipolar II diagnosis? F31.81? That is the only ICD 10 code I can find for Bipolar II even though my providers add more wording to the Bipolar II.

The DSM-5 has the following:

• "Bipolar II disorder has one diagnostic code: F31.81. Its status with respect to current severity, presence of psychotic features, course, and other specifiers cannot be coded but should be indicated in writing (e.g., F31.81 bipolar II disorder, current episode depressed, moderate severity, with mixed features; F31.81 bipolar II disorder, most recent episode depressed, in partial remission)."
