I wonder what, in Harry's model of the world, has been going on with Bellatrix all this time, and why he never inquired about her.

"The Voldemort-and-dementor-victimized lady who we sent to a healer is being healed, but healing doubly-demented people takes a long time" would be a reasonable guess from Harry's perspective.

Guessing instead of just asking Quirrell seems less reasonable, though.

Even if healing her takes time it's worthwhile for Harry to learn about her location and contact details to follow up after Quirrell's death.
