They are essentially procs with a 100% chance to activate. This means that they are activated on the primary target of the power whenever the power is used. So, yes, you will need to slot them into Health if you want to see them on you at all times unless you plan on using Aid Other at least once every 2 minutes.

The power must be used.
The plastic tips at the end of shoelaces are called aglets. Their true purpose is sinister.

The power must be used to activate it... and also, the magnitude of the effect is enhanceable (We're not sure it's supposed to be that way, but it is, and has been for long enough that we all assume they're not going to change/fix it). So it's good to put it in a power you're going to fill with other enhancements for maximum effect... such as health.

What I'm looking at is if I need to put them in Health for persistent buffs, or if I can stick them in, say, Aid Other instead. |
I gotta make pain. I gotta make things right. I gotta stop what's comin'. 'Least I gotta try.

That is going to be fixed next issue as per open beta patch notes.|

| Fixed a bug that would cause Numina's Convalescence: +Regen/+Recovery to have its effects boosted by being slotted in a power with enhancements that would increase regeneration or recovery rates. |
I don't suffer from altitis, I enjoy every minute of it.
Thank you Devs & Community people for a great game.
So sad to be ending ):

Except for the fact that that fix only applies to a specific case involving the Numina's unique wherein both values were being enhanced by either enhancement type being present (i.e. putting it into a power with heal enhancement enhanced both the regen and recov of the heal unique).|

The behavior is being left alone as far as we know and is simply correcting that specific behavior in the Numina proc. If they do correct it, I'm more than confident they would say they were correcting a problem with all of the heal uniques rather than just one.
I dont share your confidence, and feel certain the devs wouldnt mention other fixes in down the future issues pipe line.
The assumption that becauses its been working that way for a long while means the devs wont change isnt an assumption I would make.

This. Regardless it's still well worth slotting just for the normal effects.|

Coincidentally enough one of my Scrappers received the proc recipe as a reward roll last night and immediately crafted and slotted it.
Dr. Todt's theme.
i make stuff...
