Melanie Murphey, 36, admitted serving as the "go-between" for Novus Health Services owner Bradley Harris, doctors and nurses in an alleged $60 million scheme.
Murphey, Novus' director of operations, pleaded guilty to health care fraud and is expected to testify against 15 others in the case, including Harris and his wife, Amy. The other defendants have pleaded not guilty.
Harris ordered that patients who stayed beyond the time they allowed Novus to turn a profit receive higher doses of "whatever narcotic was being used, generally morphine, Dilaudid or Ativan," records show.
He also sent a text to a nurse that said, "You need to make this patient go bye-bye," according to an affidavit.
Murphey admitted falsifying paperwork, including orders to not resuscitate patients. This was done to avoid paying for ambulance trips to a hospital if a relative called 911.
