The standard "Certificat de décès" form must be filled in by a MD; it does always include a section "causes du décès", be it "mort naturelle" or a specific diagnosed illness. The doctor may order an autopsy, but I'm not sure if she may order a post-mortem C-19 test. In any case, testing the patients (or deceased people) with COVID-like symptoms has become routine, in hospitals obviously, but also in nursing homes.
