The old adage “money talks and bullsh*t walks” has never failed. Case in point, Manhattan’s Lenox Hill Hospital, which was propelled in to the limelight after pop star Beyonce delivered daughter, Blue Ivy, there earlier this year. Reportedly star struck with all of the publicity they garnered, now the hospital is being criticized by its nurses who allege that the babies who don’t have the luxury to be born in the executive suites receive substandard health care because the hospital is putting its resources in to Moms with the means, according to the NY Daily News.

Ever since Lenox Hill Hospital decided to invest in posh executive suites that are housed two floors below the common maternity ward earlier this year, nurses allege that the care and attention to newborns of regular Moms has diminished. Reportedly called the “Beyonce Room,” the “Park Ave. Studio,” and the “premium deluxe,” these executive suites, with full-service, can be had for $1,750 a night — if you can afford to birth like Beyonce — and $1,400 a night for the premium rooms. If your pocket isn’t deep enough, though, a Mother also has the option of paying for the cheapest of the deluxe rooms, “deluxe private,” at $850 a night.
