Question beneficary vs inheritance

I was named sole beneficiary of my sisters 401k account. Is being name beneficary the same as inheriting? I guess my question is, is there a diffence between being name beneficiary or inheriting?

Default Re: beneficary vs inheritance

Yes--an insurance policy or retirement account often avoids probate
