I think that healers dodging in between combatants casting "Heal 4" just as people are about to fall down is an artefact of the RQ3 rules system, and the tendency of roleplaying groups to allow lots of easy healing magic that is not realistic in relation to the game world. >>
I disagree. Well, OK, I agree that 'Heal 4' is an artefact of the system, and doesn't translate directly into HW, but I assume that's not your point ;-). In evidence, I cite King of Dragon Pass, in which much 'rushing in to save the fallen' takes place during raids and battles.
