the main reason for the question is because a friend is within a yr of being able to retire and was just notified of being med boarded. i am seeking possible options to allow this NCO to retire with all 20 instead of being screwed by the system.

Damn tough- you would have to show a MED board that they are wrong, and that won't be easy.

It is generally not possible to refuse medical retirement, but you can absolutely resist an administrative action of this importance. If you want to continue serving and believe that you have genuine capacity to do so, you are not obligated to fade away quietly.
