It is better to choose an insurer which has an in-house claim process rather than an insurer which does claim process via a TPA.
But this shouldn't be your main factor of comparison. First, shortlist plans based on your requirements. If your best shortlisted plan is from an insurer with a TPA claim process, then there's no harm as long as you follow the claim process diligently.
Thank you
