A gate agent friend of mine had it done. Not sure of the details of coverage and it was several years ago anyway. Very painful initially as well as the recovery and it ended up making zero difference. He later found (by researching it after the fact...doh!) that there is a contingent in the medical community that drives people towards certain prodecures robotically and regardless of the true individual need for them or of the effectiveness of the procedures as long as the "candidate" meets minimum requirements for it. Basically if you have apnea, many doctors will reflexively steer you towards that route even though the outcomes may not be what they imply once you research it. I'd look long and hard at all the options and be very biased towards not going that route without substantial research as well as at least hearing what the anti jaw surgery for sleep apnea medical community has to say about it. But that's just me.
