F88 – Other disorders of psychological development

Yes, F88 is a billable code under ICD-10-CM, meaning it can be used for insurance claims and reimbursement when diagnosing patients with unspecified psychological developmental disorders.

The ICD-10 code for developmental mental disorder depends on the specific condition. F88 (Other disorders of psychological development) is a general category, while conditions like F84 (Pervasive developmental disorders, including autism) or F81 (Specific developmental disorders of scholastic skills) may apply to particular cases.

F88 is not strictly a mental health diagnosis but falls under neurodevelopmental disorders, which affect cognitive, emotional, motor, and social development. While it may overlap with mental health conditions, it primarily addresses developmental delays rather than mood or psychiatric disorders.
