ICD-10 Code F44.8 – Other dissociative and conversion disorders (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F44.8 – Other dissociative and conversion disorders
What it is
F44.8 identifies dissociative or conversion presentations that do not fit a more specific ICD-10 category. You use it when documentation describes a dissociative disorder or conversion disorder, but the record does not support a narrower code.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Commonly reported findings include disruptions in memory, identity, consciousness, sensation, or voluntary motor function, without a better explained neurological or medical cause.
When to use this code
Use F44.8 when the clinician documents an “other” dissociative disorder or an unspecified conversion disorder that is not captured by a more specific code. It may also fit mixed or atypical presentations when the chart supports a dissociative or conversion diagnosis, but details are limited. Check documentation before coding.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for dissociative amnesia, dissociative fugue, dissociative identity disorder, or other specifically named F44 codes. Do not assign it when symptoms are better explained by a neurological, substance-related, or intentional disorder.
Coding tip
Look for the exact provider wording; if the diagnosis is more specific than “other,” code the specific F44 category instead.
