Doctor's offices are known for playing music such as jazz, classical, or easy listening tunes in the background to help patients relax. But it seems for the doctors in the UK the benefits of offering their patients a little musical relaxation has to come with a cost. Any business establishment that plays music in the background is required to pay a license to do so. And in the UK the Performing Rights Society is making sure that the Doctors do just that. Apparently the PRS is only requiring doctors to pay for music that is played in the waiting room and not in the actual rooms or therapy sessions.
Whew! That is good because I would hate to get sick in the UK and only have the sound of beep beep beep to calm my nerves.
