The ICD-10-CM code for substance addiction, specifically for "Other psychoactive substance abuse, uncomplicated," is F19.10 [1]. This code is used to classify cases where an individual is abusing a psychoactive substance not categorized under specific substances like alcohol, opioids, cannabis, sedatives, hypnotics, cocaine, or other specified substances [2]. The term "uncomplicated" signifies that the abuse is not accompanied by additional complications such as withdrawal symptoms, delirium, or other substance-induced disorders [2].

This code falls under the broader category of F19, "Other psychoactive substance related disorders," which includes polysubstance drug use [3] [4]. The F19.10 code is a billable and specific code for reimbursement purposes, and the 2025 edition of ICD-10-CM F19.10 became effective on October 1, 2024 [1]. It is applicable to "Other (or unknown) substance use disorder, mild" [1]. For healthcare providers, using F19.10 requires evaluating diagnostic criteria such as recurrent substance use, failure to fulfill major obligations, use in hazardous situations, legal problems, and interpersonal problems related to substance use, all while ensuring the absence of dependence and significant medical or psychiatric complications [2]. Relevant CPT codes for treatment and management associated with F19.10 may include Evaluation and Management (E/M) services (99201-99215), psychotherapy services (90832-90838), and various substance abuse assessment and intervention services (H0001, H0004, H0038, G0396-G0397, 99408-99409) [2].
