Mr. Magee oversees pharmacy operations across BayCare Health System, West Central Florida’s largest health system with 16 hospitals and nearly 34,000 team members, leading an approximately 700-member pharmacy team. His scope extends beyond acute care pharmacy to an Food and Drug Administration-approved central compounding pharmacy, a 503B outsourcing facility, home care infusion, specialty pharmacy and population health programs. Additionally, he oversees the system’s social work and utilization review teams. With more than 40 years of clinical experience, he is the first and only individual at BayCare to hold the chief pharmacy officer title, as well as the first in Florida. One of his most significant accomplishments is creating BayCare’s pharmacy residency program, which over 25 years has expanded to 14 hospitals, making it the largest in the state. Mr. Magee is a past president of the Florida Society of Health-System Pharmacists, an associate clinical professor at the University of Florida College of Pharmacy and a 2016 recipient of the “Latiolais Leadership Award” from The Ohio State University.
