This study examines the mechanisms and effectiveness of resolving professional ethics violations through the Medical Ethics Council (MKEK) using a literature review approach. The MKEK acts as an institution tasked with maintaining the integrity of the medical profession and protecting patients' rights through the fair and transparent resolution of code of ethics violations. This study examines the dispute resolution procedure, starting from the complaint, verification, examination, plenary session, to the imposition of sanctions and evaluation of the effectiveness of the process in providing protection and corrective impact. The results of the study show that although the MKEK has implemented a structured resolution mechanism, there are several challenges that affect its effectiveness, such as the sometimes lengthy resolution process, variations in the imposition of sanctions, and limited resources. This study recommends improving human resource capacity, greater transparency, and the use of information technology to strengthen the role of the MKEK as a credible ethical dispute resolution body. Thus, the MKEK can be more effective in building medical professionalism and maintaining public trust in the health care system in Indonesia.
