Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]  
Share-Based Compensation
14. Share-Based Compensation
We maintain stock incentive plans (collectively, the “Plans”) for the benefit of certain of our officers, directors and employees. At June 30, 2022, 24 million shares remain available for future grants under the Cardinal Health, Inc. 2021 Long-Term Incentive Plan ("2021 LTIP"). Under the 2021 LTIP's fungible share counting provisions, stock options are counted against the plan as one share for every share issued; awards other than stock options are counted against the plan as two and one-half shares for every share issued. This means that only 10 million shares could be issued under awards other than stock options while 24 million shares could be issued under stock options. Shares are issued out of treasury shares when stock options are exercised and when restricted share units and performance share units vest. Until the end of fiscal 2018, stock options were granted to our officers and certain employees. There were no stock options granted to employees during fiscal 2022, 2021 or 2020.

The total tax benefit related to share-based compensation was $12 million, $12 million and $16 million for fiscal 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Restricted Share Units
Restricted share units granted under the Plans generally vest in equal annual installments over three years. Restricted share units accrue cash dividend equivalents that are payable upon vesting of the awards.

Performance Share Units
Performance share units generally vest over a three-year performance period based on achievement of specific performance goals. Based on the extent to which the targets are achieved, vested shares may range from zero to 240 percent of the target award amount for fiscal 2020 and 2021 grants and zero to 234 percent for the fiscal 2022 grant. Performance share units accrue cash dividend equivalents that are payable upon vesting of the awards.
