Federal prosecutors say a Baltimore woman has pleaded guilty to embezzling more than $237,000 from a health care benefit program.

Thirty-four-year-old Nicole Stepney Turner entered the plea on Friday. She will be sentenced on Feb. 18.

According to her plea agreement, Stepney Turner worked at CareFirst as a billing and enrollment technician. She caused 84 checks to be issued by Carefirst and made payable to 10 conspirators, including, prosecutors say, to her husband, Melvin Turner. Prosecutors say the Turners got most of the money from the cashed checks.

Melvin Turner, who has been charged in the scheme, remains at large.
