HI,

They are both totally different and receiving PIP doesn't automatically qualify you for LCWRA.

You can see the descriptors for LCWRA here. https://www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/universal-credit-uc/uc-faq/3904-limited-capability-for-work-related-activity

LCW are here. https://www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/universal-credit-uc/uc-faq/3903-limited-capability-for-work

There are some health conditions that will automatically mean you're entitled to LCWRA which are all outlined in the first link above.
