Is F98.8 a P code?

well now I am confused. F98.8 has a P on it. In the guidelines you can only use those codes noted with a "P" for pediatrics 0-17 yrs of age. The index takes you to F98.8 without mention of Hyperactivity but I thought the "P" superseded it and have used F90.0, but the tabular guidelines says you may use F98 regardless of age so F98.8 would be the correct code? maybe payers are denying because of the "P". You may want to point out that guideline at the top of the F90 category. I may need to research this based upon payer. thanks for posting.
