"Hydrogen bonds" in the framework of most modern molecular mechanical force fields (including the AMBER force field) is simply a nonbonded interaction between the hydrogen and O/N/F atoms that are not covalently bound to each other. So they would be part of the electrostatic and Lennard-Jones interactions.

Hope this helps,
Jason
