Organizational ethics in healthcare literature encompasses a set of complex and interrelated topics. It is regarded as the frontier of medical ethics or the next stage in the evolution of bioethics. To effectively address organizational ethical issues within healthcare organizations, it is crucial to understand both the similarities and differences between competing concepts. Moreover, the presence of financial and contractual concerns often makes it challenging to motivate managers to enhance the ethical climate of their organizations. This study aims to develop a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of organizational ethics in the healthcare system. This review study involved a comprehensive search of the literature on healthcare system ethics, utilizing the following databases: PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and CINAHL. Additionally, grey literature from published books on Healthcare Organization Ethics and websites of organizations such as JCAHO and VBN were also included. The search strategy employed a combination of keywords such as 'health ethics,' 'organizational ethics,' 'health organizations,' 'ethical decision-making,' 'manager motivation,' and 'CEO incentives.' Only English-language sources with accessible full-texts were considered. All search results were reviewed, and duplicates were removed. This study offers a comprehensive overview of the existing literature on organizational ethics in healthcare, providing a detailed map of key texts in the field.
