ASRS; long-term disability

HB 2077 amends Arizona's Long-Term Disability (LTD) program rules for state employees covered by the Arizona State Retirement System (ASRS). It adjusts how LTD benefits are calculated by reducing them based on other disability benefits (like Social Security), with specific percentages applied depending on when a disability began (before or after July 1, 2008). The bill also establishes a 100% income cap for newer cases (disability starting after August 2, 2012), ensuring total monthly income from all sources doesn't exceed the member's original monthly compensation, while maintaining a $50 minimum benefit. These changes directly affect ASRS members filing for LTD benefits.
