For the purposes of this subsection (1)(b), a title insurance company or agent shall not be deemed or appointed an agent of the individual identified in the request for notice of transfer or encumbrance. The department of health and welfare shall adopt by rule a model form for notice of transfer or encumbrance to be used by said individual when notifying the department.(2) If the department of health and welfare has caused to be recorded a termination of request for notice of transfer or encumbrance in the grants and conveyances records pursuant to section 56-225, Idaho Code, or if no individual identified in the request for notice of transfer or encumbrance is the record owner of the real property described therein, the title insurance company or agent is not required to disclose the notice of transfer or encumbrance as required by subsection (1)(a) of this section, and an individual transferring or encumbering the real property after the date of such recording is not required to provide the notice of transfer or encumbrance required by subsection (1)(b) of this section.(3) The notice of transfer or encumbrance described in subsection (1)(a) of this section is personal to the individual named therein and shall not constitute a lien or encumbrance on, or prevent the transfer or encumbrance of, the property described therein. A title insurance company or agent shall have no liability to the department of health and welfare or any person or entity for failing to discover, or for disclosing, the request for notice of transfer or encumbrance as required by subsection (1)(a) of this section.[55-819, added 2010, ch. 90, sec. 1, p. 174.]
