    6  insurer may not obtain, directly or indirectly, personally
    7  identifiable health information that is in, or the result of,
    8  any direct-to-consumer genetic test.
    9         (e) This section may not be construed as prohibiting a life
   10  insurer from accessing an individual’s medical record as part of
   11  an application examination. This section does not prohibit a
   12  life insurer from considering and using an individual’s medical
   13  record, even if the medical record contains the results of a
   14  genetic test.
   15         Section 2. Unless reviewed and saved from repeal through
   16  reenactment by the Legislature, the amendment made by this act
   17  to s. 627.4301, Florida Statutes, expires July 1, 2021, and the
   18  text of that section shall revert to that in existence on June

   21  the extent that such amendments are not dependent upon the
