Can the VA refuse to treat a 100% service-connected veteran citing their case as "too complex," and also refuse to outsource them for care?

Oh boy that’s the can of worms I live in!

Send a letter to both Veteran's Chairpersons in the House/Senate. Their Chief of Staff and staff members will respond. At the same time get a hold of a Service Rep in your area. Next solicit an approved outside VA attorney. In other words FLOOD the HALLS. Oh! Forgot......Your Congressman/woman/Senator. It appears someone has drop the lead ball. There is no cause for this treatment of a Veteran no matter what. Another I forgot. GO TO THE SOURCE. Secretary Of the Department of Veterans Affairs Denis McDonough. McDonough has BOASTED about changes. Let McDonough change these EXCUSES. Good Luck.

I too had a similar problem all i had to say to the doctor was. . .
" Your violating your Hippocratical oath of do no harm by refusing me treatment ! "
But you have to say it exactly as i quoted it to make it legally binding !
And if they still refuse sue & take his license away!
You will be amazed how fast they will reverse their actions because they know they can lose their medical license!

Have you contacted a rep from the VSO office to represent you? Filed a congressional complaint? I am a VFW VSO and yes this happens. We have means to go about this and actions taken to file appropriate things to proceed. Have you been before a VA judge yet? If you contact a VSO from a nationwide organization(VFW, AL, DAV, etc...) they are located in the BVA and have better access to resources to help you.

Yes, I’m living it at 95 percent disability, unemployable having applied for over 2500 remote jobs. Attempt Unemployability, SSDI, with Medicare and Medicaid as well as SSI. I am a former officer and USAF Academy grad living without a caregiver. If you qualify, please pursue all avenues and a lawyer who is qualified and reputable helps as well. I spend my money on special foods, medications and every self care piece of self care I can afford. Not a fun life, I also have a neuro-spinal implant. Not having consistent health maintenance when complex is tough. I do this alone minus my little dogs. But we’re built tough, don’t give up.

No case is to complex. Treat our veterans ❤

SSgt Lisa J. Markland, A Senator may not have been the best Congressman to use. A House of Representative member would be better since they work closer with the people. A Senator is more of a big picture person. Also seek assistance from your state veterans office. The VA will listen when the inquiries come from the State of (name a 50 state) rather than from an individual. Some local TV news stations may be interested on how a veteran is being treated by the local VA. Some lawyers represent veterans pro bono. You gotta do your homework when seeking representation. Use every resource available to get treatment. You must have yourself in your best interest. Good Luck

Appeal decision. Exhaust administrative process of appeals, the sue the VA under the Cares Act.

Best course of action, contact your congressman from your district who generally have a military/VA staff member. Most of the time they can help you move things in the right direction. Senators are no use, they will tell you they are to busy. Also have you contacted a VA patient rep ? Some can be helpful. Also a DAV rep or other service type organizations can generally help.

None of the answers here, so far, seem to answer your question directly, "Can the VA refuse care citing a case as too complex."

In my opinion, some VA personnel would more likely love the challenge.

My rational for some; it gets really old and tiresome, sometimes, taking care of the same old friendly polite law-abiding civilian.

My guess on this question, they can try to refuse, but they'll likely either get stuck doing the work anyways or will likely more so enjoy their work even more, as long as there is money. (Citing the likely end result of other answers with escalating a problem to the service officers or to the White House.)

Bottom line with humor aside, think the VA has a duty for serving or caring for our veterans, regardless of difficulty. Similar with the only goal of winning a war, there is no resolve of simply giving-up.
