The state's new "Life Insurance Policy Locator Service" has already helped families recover more than one point seven million dollars in benefits.
The service makes it easier for Illinoisans to determine if a loved one who has passed away has any life insurance policies they may not know about.
State Department of Insurance acting director Jennifer Hammer says all you have to do is fill out an application and submit the deceased's death certificate, then they will take it from there.
