"The city of North Kansas City has no plan in place -- and never did have a plan in place -- to sell the North Kansas City Hospital to any specific entity," the city said in a statement. "While the North Kansas City Hospital board of trustees and their lawyers would have you think otherwise, there is absolutely no truth whatsoever to these allegations."
