The guidelines give the example of alcoholic pancreatitis due to alcohol dependence, use K85.2, alcohol induced acute pancreatitis, and F10.20, alcohol dependence. See guideline for chapter 5.b.4).
Modifiers are just used on cpt codes. Pair a diagnosis code with the corresponding PCs code. I have a bunch of videos on the PCs characters that may help.

what is the code for history of cocaine dependence?
I am out of town and will respond when I get back this weekend
This is coded as dependence in remission. A patient never really is "cured" from the dependence but may stop using. See F14.21.
CAN YOU DO SOME VIDEOS ON PCS OP REPORTS
Good suggestion!
