Intellectual disabilities
F70–F79 classifies intellectual disability by severity. ICD-10-CM 2026 retains the four-tier severity framework — mild (F70), moderate (F71), severe (F72), profound (F73) — alongside other and unspecified codes. Document IQ range, adaptive functioning, and any co-occurring behavioral disturbance.
