The ICD-10 code for Tourette’s disorder is F95.2.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F95.2 – Tourette’s disorder

What it is

Tourette’s disorder is a tic disorder marked by multiple motor tics and at least one vocal tic. The tics are involuntary and may come and go over time.

Clinical signs

Common findings include sudden, repetitive movements such as blinking or shoulder jerking, plus vocalizations like throat clearing or grunting. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Use F95.2 when the record documents Tourette’s disorder or Tourette syndrome with both motor and vocal tics. Apply it when the diagnosis is established and the note supports a chronic tic disorder, not a transient tic.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for isolated motor tics, isolated vocal tics, or provisional tic disorder. Check documentation if the note only describes suspected tics or another neurologic condition.

Coding tip

Confirm that both motor and vocal tics are documented before assigning F95.2.
