Anyone ever changed their mind about what type of WLS to have after Ins. contacted?

I have already picked my surgeon and WLS procedure. I've gone to my first consultation and my surgeon has been working with my insurance company for a month. What if I want to change from an Open RNY to a Laproscopic procedure and my surgeon does not do that type of surgery? Do I have to start all over again and if my insurance company approves my Open RNY, how likely is it that they will approve Laproscopic surgery? Will I have to start from the beginning?
