While the WCJ's initial order addressed a threshold issue (injury AOE/COE), the applicant's petition only challenged interlocutory issues regarding QME panels. The WCAB treated this as a request for removal, which is an extraordinary remedy rarely granted. Because the applicant failed to demonstrate significant prejudice or irreparable harm, and reconsideration remains an adequate remedy for future interlocutory issues, the petition was denied.
