ICD-10 Code G47.69 – Other sleep related movement disorders (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide

The ICD-10 code for Other sleep related movement disorders is G47.69.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code G47.69 – Other sleep related movement disorders

What it is

G47.69 identifies sleep-related movement disorders that do not fit a more specific ICD-10 category. Use it for abnormal movements during sleep or sleep-wake transition when documentation supports a nonspecific sleep movement disorder.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Commonly recorded findings include repetitive limb movements, body jerks, or other involuntary movements that disrupt sleep or are observed during sleep studies.

When to use this code

Use this code when the provider documents a sleep-related movement disorder but does not specify a more defined diagnosis such as periodic limb movement disorder. It may also apply when the chart notes abnormal nocturnal movements without clearer classification. Check documentation for the exact disorder name.

Do not use for

Do not use G47.69 when a more specific sleep disorder code is documented. Do not assign it for daytime movement disorders, seizures, or parasomnias unless the record clearly identifies a sleep-related movement disorder.

Coding tip

Code the most specific sleep disorder documented, and query the provider if the note only says “abnormal movements during sleep.”
