Major depressive disorder, single episode, moderate
F32.1 is valid for submission on a claim — CMS flags it as a billable, specific code.

Major depressive disorder recorded as a single episode of moderate severity. The F32 category is graded by severity, and recurrent episodes are classified in F33 instead.
