If I understand this correctly, you get the following benefits for any of the affected perks:

Immediately start Health regen
Does not immediately start regenerating Shields
Restores more Health per kill
Gives a flat amount of Health/Shield per activation

Affected perks:

• Transfusion (Striker Titan - kills with storm fist immediately trigger health regen)
  
• Cauterize (Sunbreaker Titan - enemies brought down by your fire regenerate your health)
  
• Lifesteal (Voidwalker Warlock - Damaging an enemy with Energy Drain immediately restores a significant portion of your health)
  
• Embrace the Void (Voidwalker Warlock - Killing enemies with Nova Bonb or any grenade triggers Energy Drain and restores your health)
  
• Ward of Dawn cast
  
• Red Death Perk (Each kill heals you and speeds up reloads)
  
• Suros Legacy Perk (The bottom half of each magazine deals bonus damage and has a chance to return health on kill)
  
• No Backup Plans (Shotgun kills trigger force barrier and Force Barrier's duration is increased)
  
• The Ram (Increased armor. All voidwalker melees trigger life steal on hit)
  
• Apotheosis Veil (gain increased health from orb pickups)

I suppose it comes down to the new distinction between health and shield behavior, but I"m assuming that it's just adding a delay to the shield regen since otherwise they would have said "Gives a flat amount of Health per activation" instead of "Gives a flat amount of Health/Shield per activation". If it's just a delay (and not a long one), this should be manageable.
