One of the main debates in bioethics revolves around access to health care for migrants; however, it is difficult to find studies or articles that record the concrete contributions that bioethics has made in this area. For this reason, the main objective of this systematic review is to identify the contributions that bioethics has made to the relationship between migration and the human right of access to health since 2006. Based on the PRISMA methodology, a search for articles was carried out in the closed repositories of Scielo, PubMed, Elsevier, Redalyc and Dialnet, ensuring that these were from indexed journals. Articles published before 2006 were excluded. In total, 13 articles were selected and subjected to a detailed reading in order to report their results and conclusions. The findings were grouped into six categories and the main contribution of this discipline was identified as the formulation of bioethical principles that guide medical and scientific work and are basic notions for developing public policies on access to health. The results obtained are considered relevant for authorities, health professionals, scientists and migrants, as well as for the development of new projects that take up the objective of this research with a different approach.
