Interventions to Improve HIV Antiretroviral Therapy Adherence

This study will explore whether financial incentives, reminders, information about HIV/AIDS and its treatment and anti-stigma counseling help improve anti-retroviral therapy (ART) adherence among HIV infected individuals in a resource-limited environment. The interventions will be randomized in the study population in a cross-cutting design, with a control group, a financial incentive treatment group, a reminders treatment group, a treatment group that receives both the financial incentive and reminder interventions. In addition, there will be an information treatment group, a stigma-relieving treatment group and a group that receives both information and stigma-relieving interventions. The primary outcomes of interest for this study will be the adherence to ART, measured by attendance rates at clinic appointments and refill collection rates.
