Gamersinfo.net has posted their writeup on LotRO from E3. A couple of interesting comments:

"In Middle-earth, the healer's art is subtle indeed, and mastered by few. Player characters will not be able to repair lacerations and broken bones in seconds, leaving their patients completely recovered and ready to face the next battle. Instead, wounds are a serious matter, and treatment will usually require a visit to town."

"There will also be benefits to players for remaining associated with their Kinship for a long period of time, but we weren't given the details on what these benefits would be."
