I have an idea that would be pretty cool for doctors. I know in the "5 things to make SWG a more Star Wars feeling" thread that the dev talked about it, heres my idea on how it could work.
These would be identical to the ones in the clone labs, exept they would be Player-Craftable.
Doctors would make these tanks and "attach" meds to them. Then the injured player could be "droped" into one of these tanks, then stay there for a few minutes/seconds until the wounds heal.
This could be cool if they change the way you heal wounds, For minor wounds you would be able to heal them on the go with a droid. But if they are major you have to use a bacta tank. It could also be used for buffs.
And to not harm the doctor profession, a doctor has to be "using" the bacta tank for it to work
Public Bacta tanks would be in every med center, and mabye even 1 or 2 in a scout/ranger camp. They would have a similar rating system as that of Crafting Stations.
When doctors craftbacta tanks, at first they will be useless, and empty, mabye usable for decoration. But when you "attach" medical supplies to it it will become active, and players would be able to be "dropped" to them.
Just my thought on how theycould look like.

Its decoration.....but atleast we have them. Some times changing game mechanics causes more harm then good. Which is why RP is so fun.

i dont think we need em, but heres my 2 cents:
the bacta tank would be craftable, but you'd need to fill it with bacta(wich would be an advanced subcomponent using a really specific water, a rare class X petro fuel, and maybe some organic) it would also have a number of uses like stims and what'not. the tank would have a decay like normal items.
this bacta could cure all states very quickly and effiecently. U could also have it heal wounds really slowly(or add rate of heal as experimentation area for the bacta)
the thing could be usable at novice medic but only craftable at master medic.
you'd get xp based on normal healing.

Although mechanically advanded (read that as lots of time to make it work) this could be a source of income to medics. An idea that comes to mind is the thought of player rented "apartment" in NPC cities. Modify the idea slightly and couple it with the idea of bacta tanks. Medics could craft and "rent" places to put the tanks. Fill them up with meds and charge an "entry" fee to be dunked. Then players can come to the med center to be healed and have different states removed while the medic makes a profit. It also doesn't discourage leveling medics because they can still stand in the med center healing players, even those who are being dunked.

You have to do VillageHeightened Sense Phase 4 quest.
In this quest you heal 100 players while they are in combat and you can decorate your hospital ...
