Upon receipt of a request for information regarding a deceased person's life insurance policy from a funeral service provider that complies with § 54.1-2818.5, a life insurer doing business in the Commonwealth may provide certain information to the funeral service provider regarding the existence of any life insurance policy issued by the insurer or any affiliated insurer insuring the life of the deceased person identified in the request. The information may include the names and contact information, if available, of any beneficiaries on record under any such policy insuring such life. Nothing in this section shall require a life insurer to provide information that is confidential or protected from disclosure under applicable state or federal law. A life insurer may respond to such a request for information in a manner that is consistent with the terms of any applicable life insurance policy and the life insurer's administrative practices and procedures.
