Mr. Daly was the first president and CEO of the newly incorporated Baystate Health from 1983 to 2003. Under Mr. Daly’s leadership, Baystate Medical Center grew from one academic medical center to an integrated health system.  

Baystate President and CEO Mark Keroack said in a prepared statement, “Daly’s tenure as president and chief executive officer of Baystate Health and Baystate Medical Center was formative not only for Baystate, but also for the evolution of the American healthcare system. Mr. Daly was nationally respected and recognized as a thinker and a leader, and his contributions to Baystate and to the health of our community and its people are innumerable and immeasurable.”
