The relationships between the various actors are becoming increasingly complicated; the amount of money spent on healthcare grows daily; and the pace of change seems to accelerate constantly. In this paper, we consider the kinds of institutions which provide healthcare services, products, policies and look at some of the specific business or organizational ethical challenges faced by a hospital and get some results.Keywords: Medical ethics, Healthcare Institutions, Healthcare organizationsTurkiye Klinikleri J Med Ethics 2002, 10:221-225
