The applicant's petition for reconsideration focused solely on the denial of medical treatment, specifically Imitrex, Lipoderm, and Norco, for industrial injuries. However, the administrative law judge's previous hearing and award addressed only penalties for late payment of compensation, not the medical treatment disputes.
