Beyonce and Jay-Z did NOT pay $1.3 million so the Destiny's Child singer could give birth to Blue Ivy in a sealed off private floor ... this according to the hospital.
A
rep for Lenox Hill Hospital just released a statement, claiming, "The
suggestion that the couple paid $1.3 million to rent an entire maternity
floor is simply not true."
The rep adds, "The family is housed
in an executive suite at the hospital and is being billed the standard
rate for those accommodations."
According to the rep, "The family
does have its own security detail on site. However, the hospital has
been and continues to be in control of managing all security at the
facility. We have made every effort to ensure minimal disruption to
other families experiencing the births of their own children over the
past three days."
TMZ broke the story ... moms at Lenox Hill are considering filing a lawsuit against the hospital, claiming they were treated like 2nd class citizens when Beyonce rolled in this weekend.
