I mean, yeah you can heal it up afterwards, it's rarely a big deal, but disc can leverage the 10 seconds' worth of GCDs before the damage which you'd normally spend resisting the urge not to AFK. And even beyond that, Penance and PWS are very solid after the damage goes out, considering your only other tank healing competition is Enveloping Mist and Holy Light.
