Hello, How would you code if both diagnoses are documented on the note? f15.159 or code them each separately as stated below?


*Methamphetamine-induced psychotic disorder (HCC) [F15.959]
Methamphetamine abuse (HCC) [F15.10]

Thank you for the help!

The guideline states if both use and abuse are documented, assign only the code for abuse. If both abuse and dependence are documented, assign only the code for dependence.
