ICD-10 Code G25.69 – Other tics of organic origin (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code G25.69 – Other tics of organic origin
What it is
G25.69 identifies tic movements that are considered organic in origin but do not fit a more specific tic diagnosis. Use it for involuntary motor or vocal tics when the record supports an underlying neurologic cause or classification.
Clinical signs
Tics are typically sudden, brief, repetitive movements or sounds that may be partially suppressible and can fluctuate over time. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.
When to use this code
Use this code when the provider documents other tic disorder of organic origin and no more specific code applies. It may fit cases with atypical tic patterns, mixed motor and vocal tics, or a neurologic condition linked to the tic presentation. Check documentation for the exact diagnosis wording.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for unspecified tic disorders or for habitual behaviors without a documented organic basis. If the chart names a different movement disorder, code that condition instead.
Coding tip
Code the most specific tic diagnosis documented and confirm whether the provider links the tics to an organic cause.
